[00:01] ubuntu 13.04 [00:01] heh well at least it executed [00:01] jrib: well xubuntu to be exact, but the #xubuntu is compeltely dead and this doesnt seem to be an xfce issue [00:01] who knows what it actually did [00:01] hi all [00:01] What can I do to make sure I've got the right (secure) plugins on ubuntu? I'm using 12.04 LTS [00:01] I know this is a bit off topic, open to suggestions on where to ask elsewhere, but does anyone know how I can disable secure boot on my asus zenbook? I've googled a lot and it simply isn't listed in my cmos [00:01] OiCory: output of: grep -r seamonkey /etc/apt/sources.list* [00:02] osirisx11: is a zenbook ARM or x86/x86_64? [00:03] zykotick9: 64 [00:03] jrib: what is the debian equivilant of 'wgetpste'? [00:03] !pastebinit | OiCory [00:03] OiCory: pastebinit is the command-line equivalent of !pastebin - Command output, or other text can be redirected to pastebinit, which then reports an URL containing the output - To use pastebinit, install the « pastebinit » package from a package manager - Simple usage: command | pastebinit -b http://paste.ubuntu.com [00:03] osirisx11: "might" be an option then. you could try ##hardware perhaps? [00:03] thanks zykotick9 [00:03] http://paste.ubuntu.com/5731111/ [00:04] jrib: ^^ [00:05] OiCory: ah, looks like it's failing to build in raring if you check https://launchpad.net/~bratherlui/+archive/seamonkey/+packages === yofun|2 is now known as yofun [00:06] jrib: what exactly does that mean? [00:07] OiCory: it means the ppa won't have the .deb [00:07] jrib: how could one remedy this? [00:07] OiCory: debug why it fails to build [00:09] jrib: ok well I'm mildly uneducated, still dont know all of the administrative things... How can I view the debug log of it? [00:11] Is there a 64 bit steam client? [00:11] OiCory: it's on launchpad. Or you can try to build it (the deb) yourself. But presumably, you've already built seamonkey since you were trying to run it [00:11] Thete: sort of. I think it just uses multiarch [00:11] hmm [00:11] hmm [00:13] hey i have an onboard video card and a video card in my pci-e slot, but i use it for some gpu programming. How can I use my onboard video card instead of the pci-e card? [00:14] heyyo nice people :). Anyone tested to output the screen through mini display port into the tv? Since when I open the chrome browser it only shows the desktop [00:14] jrib: I downloaded and tried to install it manually via the release notes on Seamonkey's site. The package also isnt listed in the pkg mngr either [00:15] no browser view at all unfortunately [00:16] plz plz plz [00:17] so if I use my browser to stream a video to my 2nd display (TV) everything works great the way it should; however if I try to do anything on any of the workspace(s) that are not on the TV it takes my TV stream out of Full Screen every single time. Is there any way to stop this from happening////////////////////////////??????????? [00:17] oooops.... didn't mean for all the ///??? at the end. keyboard batteries are dying. [00:19] gothpaw, consequently battery keyboard sucks, no offence unless you don't anything else - sorry this is offtopic [00:19] !ot | aladdin: Always remember we have a flag for it :) [00:19] aladdin: Always remember we have a flag for it :): #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions.

[00:20] SonikkuAmerica, thanks [00:20] aladdin: Yeah. [00:22] gothpaw: I think it has to do with the TV stream being in the active workspace. If Ubuntu is taken out of that workspace, you lose the TV stream because of the workspace issues. Such is the problem of workspaces. [00:22] need some help here my network connection seems to be flaking out every few minutes I can get it to come back by clicking on the SSID of the router in the list but it gets really annoying really quick ... since its a new computer and a new wifi I need to find a way to check it out ... what program can I use to monitor both the wifi traffic/signal and whether there is an issue with the hardware [00:24] For a week, I have been attempting to set up a minecraft server onto an ubuntu server that I have purchased. For the first time, I have successfully set up Multicraft on my server, but all around my Multicraft panel, I get error messages like: "No connection for daemon 1" or "No daemons found." [00:24] gothpaw: In 13.04 you can ditch the workspaces in System Settings > Appearance > Behavior tab. [00:25] SonikkuAmerica: is there not a way to set it to display on "All Desktops". This is how I "used" to do it in my OpenSuSe days, however I do not see this option under Ubuntu. **Footnote: I'm not saying SuSe is better** [00:26] gothpaw: I'm not so sure in Unity. Try using Alt+Space to open the control menu. [00:26] gothpaw: If there's an option for "Keep on Visible Workspace" you're golden. [00:27] SonikkuAmerica: I use them frquently though, so getting rid of them is not really an option. I tried 13.04 but there was too many things that just wouldn't work (Example: Caffeine) [00:27] gothpaw: Unity may not work right, but the other !flavors usually come with stable DEs.

[00:55] i see an 'addr' option in ipconfig but not a way to set the gateway [00:55] nezzario: I think you would edit that file, then restart networking, but I could be wrong [00:55] nezzario: http://is.gd/zmluh4 [00:55] i was hoping for something like 'somemagiccommand gateway 192.168.1.1' [00:55] nezzario: sudo ifconfig eth0 192.168.10.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 [00:55] nezzario: sudo route add default gw 192.168.10.1 [00:56] route add.. thanks :) [00:56] huttan: ah. [00:56] nezzario: theres 2 example [00:56] when I put the 'netmask 255.255.255.0' is that somehow magically setting the gateway? i was never good at how the CIDR/netmasks actually correlate with routing ..

There are plenty of upstart events in the log, but nothing involving lightdm. There is a valid-looking lightdm.conf in /etc/init, belonging to 1.2.3-0ubuntu2.1.

[01:39] good plan hadnt thought of that one ... looks like if I mtr yahoo.com it likes things better than if I do it with google.com [01:39] 15% loss across all hops and an average which I guess is ok [01:40] im wondering if its a driver issue ... ubuntu sees the card as a realtek but its a rosewill just wondering if maybe they tinkered with the drivers some how ... was going to use the custom drivers but man that was some evil I didnt want to start building tonight [01:43] yep I think its hardware just caught it dropping all the singnal strength of all the connections and getting a packet loss of 55% on the router hop [01:49] in the ssd optimization guide it says First, list which options you have available with the following command, replacing “X” with the letter of your root drive: cat /sys/block/sdX/queue/scheduler [01:49] but in my fstab it is a raid device, how do i know which sdX it is?

[02:17] Dr_willis: I only have the Pi and notice the volume ID was the same as duhamel's problem [02:17] OpenELEC for real..

I dont recall it ever doing that when i had this PC running ubuntu hooked in via hdmi. [02:26] what is the correct practice to access /var/www and change/upload files? [02:27] wicked, i think one would set up the allowed users to be in specific groups, that would allow them access [02:27] wicked: I add myself to www-data group, make all dirs in /var/www chmod g+s and take that approach. For local dev anyway [02:28] thanks i will try that [02:29] i'm trying to install 13.04 from usb, but it boots to "ubuntu@ubuntu:~$". i have an nvidia 650m, but i'm currently running 12.10 just fine. [02:32] somsip: that's not ideal imo because then you probably give apache write permissions on all your web files (which you shouldn't give unless apache should be writing to the files) [02:32] you did verify the iso file befor burning it ajrty33 ? how did you put the ISO on usb?

Pendrivelinux site has other tools as well. [02:35] ok Dr_willis for some reason i got to the install screen, but i couldnt get 'try ubuntu' to boot [02:35] thanks [02:37] ajrty33, weird.. may be some odd video quirk [02:38] always get these weird got-yas with pcs ;) [02:38] then somthing does work better then you expect and its a total suprise [02:39] im assuming its some nvidia issue [02:41] yea. always get hit by little things that sholdent be an issue.. then get suprised by things that are not. ;) [02:45] whats the best DDNS service for ubuntu? [02:45] Dr_willis: is 'reinstall ubuntu' without keeping any files as good as reformatting everything? [02:45] moses, some ddns services will work with your router... if you can do that, I find it's best. [02:45] that does reformat as far as i know ajrty33 [02:46] wow which are those? [02:46] it reuses the partions [02:46] ok thanks :D [02:46] my router supports like 3 differnt dynamic dns server things.. [02:46] i just dont think theres any that are totally free any more [02:46] I know some D-Links do it, Linksys has been known to. DDWRT does... [02:46] or you can get a client for your linux box that does it. [02:47] gg bruins, 6-1 [02:47] Actually, dlink offers their own ddns service for free to dlink users. [02:48] well next router i get.. i think im changeing brands.. this linksys/cisco one i got - has been very problematic. [02:48] still have issues with permitions at /var/www after add user to root and/or www-data group [02:48] i tend to get a new router about every 3 years. ;) [02:49] is this the correct command to check folder users/groups ls -l /var/www [02:49] wicked: and did you log back in after adding yourself to www-data? [02:49] logout and back ip? no [02:49] in* [02:50] wicked: that recognises the group change [02:50] ok i will try that now thanks again [02:50] wicked: so you are still not in the groups you added ('groups' will confirm this) [02:51] i can see my self in those goups [02:52] wicked: can you post your groups output, and the output of ls -la /var/www to pastebin? [02:52] sure a sec [02:53] -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 284 Jun 4 03:21 index.html [02:54] so must add user to root group right? [02:54] Hello all i'm wondering if someone knows what to do when chrome is has no sound and is not working correctly? [02:55] wicked: I wouldn't do that. Instead, make www-data the grp for eveyrthing in /var/www. sudo chgrp -R www-data /var/www && sudo chmod g+s www-data /var/www [02:55] I tried to uninstall and reinstall using the purge method and normal apt-get remove, however that didn't work the terminal said chrome wasn't installed which is weird [02:56] wicked: this will allow you to write in /var/www and any files/dirs you create will be chgrp by www-data so the webserver will be okay with this setup [02:56] I also tried to uninstall from the app store which didn't work because I could find it [02:57] chmod: cannot access `www-data': No such file or directory [02:57] wicked: sorry - second command was wrong. just 'sudo chmod g+s /var/www' [02:58] -rw-r--r-- 1 root www-data 284 Jun 4 03:21 index.html [02:59] wicked: and chmod 660 /var/www/index.html just so you can access the index file that is in there [02:59] i installed and rebooted, to a black screen. i rebooted again, edited in grub from 'quiet splash' to 'nomodeset', and it booted to a terminal login prompt [02:59] ok, will test now [03:00] how does one change permissions to a /mnt/ folder? [03:00] wicked: now you should be able to create a file in /var/www and edit the existing file, and apache should be able to read them [03:00] so that my sudo can add folders and etc... [03:01] yes now it works somsip_ [03:01] wicked: cool [03:01] thank you very much ;) [03:01] wicked: np [03:04] Dr_willis: i installed and rebooted, to a black screen. i rebooted again, edited in grub from 'quiet splash' to 'nomodeset', and it booted to a terminal login prompt [03:05] can someone tell me the command to change permissions to my /mnt/2tb1 folder to my "sudo" account and be able to have all permissions? === AlmostLive is now known as JKL1234- === JKL1234- is now known as JKL|Away === JKL|Away is now known as JKL1234- [03:45] hello. odd question. how do I get the context boxes to not have black text?

[03:49] javier : i'm using Ambience theme ... looks good here ... you might try that [03:51] javier ^ Ambiance [03:53] Anybody have any clue? figured you guys would know [03:55] apt has a reinstall option [03:55] it uses pip :( [03:56] pip uninstall pip install didn [03:56] work* [03:59] jcrza : i know this doesn't help with your present preoblem but, in the future when tweaking your system ... instead of deleting files you might just rename them ... such as "conf.d.org" ... just a thought [04:03] Need help, LightDM doesn't show my wallpaper.

If i use the newer one, the boot fails and all i see is my caps and scroll lock lights blinking, can someone point me in the right direction to fix this problem? [04:06] those lights flashing = kernel crash/freeze no idea on a fix really then using a difernt kernel [04:07] problem adding the facebook account to empathy [04:07] so this is the only fix, to use an older kernel? [04:08] the newer kernal is 3.2.0, the only other one i have is 2.6 === |1li is now known as racetaman [04:11] problem adding the facebook account to empathy [04:13] ok so i managed to get my board to be setup to have dual monitors [04:13] but my second monitor is connected to the onboard video and the other is connected to my pci-e card [04:13] the one connected to my onboard monitor is just a black screen [04:13] what can i do? [04:13] So no one knows how to fix the LightDM thing? [04:13] trying something silly to get my computer to boot to the new kernel, ill come back in and say if it worked or not. [04:16] goddard: ISTR you need two outputs on one card to do that, or two identical cards. [04:17] somsip, so i can't use my onboard and a pci-e card? [04:17] my motherboard supports it [04:18] goddard: if you can find a webpage that says you can, then you can. I have dual head on one video card, and when I tried to add a third monitor on the on-board video, all research i did suggested that it couldn't be done [04:18] *then maybe you can [04:20] problem adding the facebook account to empathy [04:22] somsip, have you looked into loading a windows driver for the virtu technology? [04:22] With Xubuntu, I see the splash screen, but I'd like to get to the grub menu so I can boot to single-user mode. How do I get to the menu? I'd like to move some files around before the system loads.

[04:24] my problem has not been fixed, ill just nuke it from low orbit [04:24] gonna reinstall the OS, wont lose anything, thats what partitions are for! [04:25] goddard: it doesn't fit my use case [04:25] Hexagonite: thank you [04:25] goddard: and doesn't imply dual head use.

[04:38] somsip: if i where you, i'd check out some of the old-school xorg.conf options. fyi, if the video cards are nvidia & ati, you can't use the proprietary drivers at the same time :( [04:40] somsip: fyi #2, unity might be a further "issue" in this case... [04:41] hi there [04:42] i have successfully used virtualbox to run a ubuntu server and have shared folders inside /media/sf_sharedfolders [04:42] How can I reboot audio drivers in Ubuntu? [04:42] I tried: pulseaudio -k && sudo alsa force-reload [04:43] i want to have the the /media/sf_sharedfolders duplicated at /var/virtual with different ownerships and permissions. how do I do that? [04:43] kimsia, chmod [04:44] I have problems with my audio card in this computer, always had. Same in linux and windows. But in Windows I deactivate drivers and then enabled them back and it fixes the issue. But in ubuntu I can't get to completely reinitialise them. [04:44] @rsvp, how do I duplicate the folder in the first place? I tried sudo mount to bind, but it will change the chown back to root:vboxsf again [04:46] kimisa: cp from source to destination, then chmod on the new dir. I would guess. [04:46] kimsia, try soft linking using sudo first: ln -s [04:46] rsvp: how do I duplicate the folder in the first place? I tried sudo mount to bind, but it will change the chown back to root:vboxsf again === Black_Cat is now known as Guest96393 [04:47] heu guys. how does this irc thing work [04:47] i installed ubuntu and it broke my moms laptop [04:48] what do i do [04:48] kimsia, but the permissions are reproduced -- I see the difficulty now. [04:48] Use the recovery partition [04:48] F8 [04:48] at startup [04:48] !details|Guest96393, [04:49] Guest96393,: Please give us full details.

[04:49] always thought SAMBA was exclusively for Linux<>Windows, but it also works for LAN Linux<>Android -- so everything is local. Your experience with SMB in this context???? [04:50] rsvp: symlink works [04:50] it's a cool use of the wifi router. [04:50] rsvp: but the interior are still root:vboxsf [04:51] How do you reboot audio drivers on Ubuntu. Sorry for asking again, I'm just making sure people notice the question. [04:51] kimsia, you could copy the contents, then change the permissions on the copy -- periodically rsync. [04:52] well, wehn i start her laptop up it gives me three loud beeps and then black screen with erros [04:52] shes going to kill me [04:52] Guest96393, check the manufacturers page for what those 3 errors mean. Sounds like a hardware failure to me [04:52] it shows ubuntu logo first [04:52] rsvp: i believe some kind of auto mount is possible, because I did it once 6 months ago on my mac [04:52] evil logo [04:53] broke my mums laptop [04:53] rsvp: now I forgot how i did that. sadly, I cannot google the solution i found previously. [04:53] Guest96393, how exactly did you install ubuntu [04:53] i copied the files on a usb [04:53] then booted [04:53] installed from it [04:54] kimsia, but does auto mount break the permissions dependencies? [04:54] Guest96393, "copied"? how did you copy [04:54] ctrl+v... liek when you copy a link [04:54] Guest96393, no supper for you tonight. [04:54] @Guest96393 It's very unlikely you broke anything. And if the laptop really is dead, you only are unlucky due to bad timing. [04:54] she's going to beat me probably. [04:54] it's happened before [04:55] phil, what can i do? [04:55] Guest96393, stay focused and answer the question if you want help [04:55] i told him, i copied files from iso on to the pendrive [04:56] rsvp: apparently i have the exact same contents inside /var/virtual/sharedfolders and inside /media/sf_sharedfolders [04:56] Guest96393, HOW did you copy? what tool did you use? [04:56] would it have broken the pendrive if i had porn on it? === BadLarry is now known as BadLarry_ [04:56] about the physical abuse, seek a therapist who will contact the proper authorities if your life is in immient danger. [04:56] however, in sf_sharedfolders, the ownership is root:vboxsf 775 [04:56] Try rebooting. Hit F8 repeatedly at startup. Once you get the menu, if you do. Use the recovery partition to put the computer back "anew". You lose all files by doing this though. But that's the easy solution if you have limited tech knowledge. You can search on google for the procedure. [04:56] Guest96393, OK now you've officially attained trolling status. [04:56] in /var/virtual/sharedfolders it is www-data:www-data 755 [04:57] !who [04:57] As you can see, this is a large channel.

[04:58] so where can i find a therapist? [04:58] It seemed unusual that brand new IRC user would be using Xchat [04:58] Remove the usb, and reboot. Have you tried that ? [04:58] preferably one that won't touch my winky [04:58] kimsia, but with rsync the latest permissions will override changes, unless there's some obscure flags I don't know about.

[05:21] and which ISO should i download? [05:21] somsip, usually I do not turn off or restart for months on end -- waiting for an involuntary power outage.

[05:22] % never-turn-off-ellison # I believe [05:23] rweitz, I've never used parallels but I've used virtualbox without issue. for merely testing/playing, I'd suggest VB [05:23] cfhowlett: okay. i already have parallels, so was wondering whether i could just use it. but virtualbox is no problem. [05:23] let me download and try [05:23] rweitz, also, see the link I sent [05:23] you can always grab the desktop iso and see. [05:23] yep, cfhowlett [05:24] Lubuntu may work better for you in a vm then the full ubuntu also [05:24] the iso says amd64+mac [05:24] rweitz, l/x/ubuntu ... [05:24] so i wasnt sure what it meant [05:24] that would be for installing Onto a real mac i belive [05:24] rweitz, the amd64 is the mac/64 bit iso [05:25] cfhowlett: oh. btw if i install the ubuntu version direct to the mac, will it detect all teh h/w? [05:25] i try to install 13.01 of fglrx ati driver. but it says that kernel header is missing. it says /lib/modules/3.8.0-23-generic/build/include/linux/version.h [05:25] !headers [05:25] To install the Linux (kernel) headers, open a terminal and: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) To install headers for libraries, you need the accompanying -dev packages [05:25] because the link cfhowlett sent - it says specific versions for specific mac models [05:25] rweitz, again, see the link. I have no mac, but the mac/ubuntu team has worked out installation by Mac model [05:25] awesome [05:26] but first, i will install the VB version [05:26] 6 minutes to download [05:27] rweitz, have fun.

In the latter you would use the @reboot directive to start something on boot === andrex is now known as andrex|off [06:10] patrickleng: actually, man shutdown will be easier for the first bit [06:11] patrickleng: you might also ask in #bash ... that channel is kind of script specific ;-) === andrex|off is now known as andrex [06:31] Hi all. How to know the list of files the *would* be installed with a package , if is not already installed ? [06:31] ggherdov: apt-file [06:33] Jordan_U, It doesn't working.. there's no command apt-file. [06:33] Jordan_U: is `apt-file` a command ? I don't have a manpage for it [06:42] Does anyone know of a program that will do the equivalent of tail -f FILENAME, but in the GUI instead of a console? That is, monitor a text file and auto-refresh whenever the file changes. [06:46] im off for a bit guys, be back in a few hours. [06:50] etfb: watch? it's not gui though [06:53] I tried seetxt, but it's one of those old-school XWindows apps that doesn't actually cope with modern ideas like mice, menus, the discovery of America, the invention of books, etc etc. REALLY old school. The man page should have been in Latin. [06:53] watch is probably overkill - I just want a version of tail -f that's a little more UI-aware. [06:54] hi all. I need to create a videoguide. can you suggest me software to record desktop and edit it? thank you. [06:54] DaVinciIT: !info lives | DaVinciIT [06:55] DaVinciIT: Hmm. Bot not responding.

[07:09] hi #ubuntu... I'm trying to rebuild perl with -DDEBUGGING... not sure if DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=debug (gave no error) is the right setting, but the build keeps breaking anyway because of "debian/config.over: Berkeley DB support not enabled, aborting!" -- I really don't get how this is failing. [07:10] aeon-ltd: it's not available in 12.10 repository while it's avaliable for 13.04 [07:10] So does anyone elses laptop keep overheating with linux 13.04 [07:10] To give a mongodb a --rest argument do I need to edit /etc/init.d/mongodb script? [07:11] mbnoimi: if there's no official ppa, then you'll have to compile if you really want to use qt5 apps [07:11] o/ [07:12] aeon-ltd: thx === stephan is now known as stephanmg === plumblum_ is now known as plumblum [07:26] Anyone here using nvidia?

[07:33] EvilDin: probably more of a query to ask the gentoo people [07:34] I'm using Ubuntu 12.04.2 on a live USB - what could possibly be causing an Input/output error when I try to ls or use sudo? [07:34] lol, gentoo people send me to ubuntu people, ubunto people send me to gentoo people :) [07:34] EvilDin: is lxc-stop a gentoo command? [07:35] somsip: no that is command on ubuntu host, virtualization lxc [07:35] EvilDin: ah. So I clearly have no idea. I'll shut up now :) [07:35] Heh, somsip.

Is there someone have used "ipan for Linux" [07:43] hi [07:43] I have download the "IPanForLinux-package-2.0.tar.gz", but don't kown how to install it. [07:44] hi [07:44] after I uncompressed it, there is no"configure"or"deb"or"rpm"files. [07:44] ghking: What does this application do? [07:45] , [07:45] network disk [07:47] ghking: Similar to dropbox/Ubuntu one ("cloud" hosted space)? [07:47] Hi, I renamed my hostname on ubuntu server, for some reason when I install postfix the wizard still seems to be aware of the old hostname, out of curiosity how can it be? [07:47] loic84: How did you change your hostname? [07:47] Jordan_U: do you kown! [07:48] Jordan_U: Yes, cloud hosted space! [07:48] Jordan_U: echo "newhost" > /etc/hostname && hostname "newhost" [07:48] I also updated /etc/hosts [07:49] also a grep -r on /etc/ return nothing for my old hostname, that's what triggers my curiosity hehe [07:50] Anybody has successfully installed GraphViz for pythong on ubuntu 12.04?? [07:50] ghking: Could you please link to the website of the company hosting this service? Is there a reason that you don't want to go with the better supported Ubuntu One or Dropbox? [07:50] I want to Install Ubuntu on 64bit processor, with 64bit Windows 8. Basically I want to set up Fedena on it! Will you guys help me? [07:51] ghking: Is there a 'readme' or 'install' file?

[08:38] but my Ethernet bandwidth is more better than WiFi [08:38] how to force axel and apt-get use Ethernet instead of WiFi [08:38] ? [08:44] repozitor yes ethernet is safer, faster and more stable than wifi [08:45] repozitor disable wifi, ethernet does not need additional config [08:45] MonkeyDust, can't disable wifi, [08:45] it connected to security camera :D [08:52] repozitor: if you're on a laptop, there's usually a hardware switch. My Vaio has one and it's switched off ;) [08:54] mreq, killing computer is the best solution for whenever you want! [08:54] instead of solving problem [08:55] repozitor: I meant wireless switch, not the power one [08:55] i ask in channel is there possible to work with both of them? [08:55] and some specific application use Ethernet [08:56] dunno that [08:58] it isn't quite what you are looking for, but http://blog.sebastien.raveau.name/2009/04/per-process-routing.html has an example of using PBR to do per-user routing [08:58] which might be good enough, or might be a springboard to figuring out how to do it truely "per-app". [08:59] Anyone ever noticed that the LogCat icon in the ADT plugin for eclipse is a "nyan"droid ? :P [08:59] (like maybe you could launch the app with a wrapper that adds a per-process iptable route to stick users into the the other routing table) [09:03] DusteD: someone still using eclipse? :) I thought that ubuntu folk divides into (g)vim, sublime, gedit and geany ;) [09:03] it's a java thing [09:04] mreq, yeah, well, vim is great for editing text, I've yet to see it even remotely compete with a proper IDE in any real-life situations, even with plugins [09:05] DusteD: tried sublime? I do all my programming in it. As a matter of fact I do everything text-related in it - frontend web, backend web (PHP/RoR), documents (XeLaTeX) etc. [09:05] repozitor: Pumpkin-: Per-process routing is complete overkill. All that you need to do is not set a default gateway for the Wireless connection. [09:06] mreq, nope, have not tried that, but I've seen it before, looks really interesting [09:07] DusteD: give it a shot (maybe wait for 3 to come out - more IDE features), it's free to try [09:07] I was answering the more general question of "how do I have app A use connection A and app B use connection B". [09:08] DusteD: Once you get used to it, you can't go back. The main "new thing" is multiple selections, allowing you to edit multiple places at once. Also has a HUGE plugin base, including Vintage, which emulates vim [09:08] DusteD: there are nice gifs on it's website [09:08] Yeah, think that's a really neat idea too :) [09:08] however, not being opensource, I don't want it [09:09] Yea, i understand that. But it's a miss [09:09] Even if the full version was free, principle, it's a text-editor, not rocket science :) [09:09] But, that said, it's still a damn cool editor ;) [09:09] is the freedos package the same as dosemu-freedos ? [09:09] DusteD: don't know about java, but it kicks every-other-editor's ass for everything I tried [09:09] Only use vim now for sudo vim /some/config/file ;) [09:10] After getting this android job, I've been using eclipse a lot, I even kicked out code::blocks for my own C projects for Eclipse, it's heavy and ugly and slow, and buggy but I get stuff done in it [09:11] Try reconsidering the opensource-only opinion. Sublime is the only thing i **willingly** paid for [09:11] android-centric, I do get to hack kernel stuff once in a while, but it's mainly android framework (java garbage and native crap) [09:11] I might if the temptation becomes too great :P [09:11] :D [09:11] But again, never liked java so I don't know nothing about it [09:12] and sublime [09:12] I don't like java, or c# so guess what I'm getting to write 90% of the time? :D [09:12] ;) [09:17] Hello I was used to seeing the next -dev release on http://packages.ubuntu.com/saucy/ , but now I don't. The source package is there, but the binary one is not. Does anyone know what is going on? (I am sorry, I don't know how to ask a search engine. I am pretty sure it's known) [09:17] There seem to be saucy installation media downloadable, so why I am seeing an empty package list?

[09:19] I do indeed [09:20] you have package control installed? [09:20] absolutely paramount to productivity for me :) [09:20] of course it is [09:20] Okay, I'll look for it ^_^ Knowing it's there is half the battle [09:20] package control allows you to easily install plugins [09:21] hello [09:21] music, greetings [09:21] here's the package control - http://wbond.net/sublime_packages/package_control; there is a LOT of plugins, search for something java-like here: http://wbond.net/sublime_packages/community [09:21] ah cool [09:22] once you install package control, you can install plugin from sublime directly [09:22] just ctrl+shift+p and type install package [09:23] you can join #sublimetext [09:23] so that we don't spam #ubuntu [09:27] hello. My laptop doesn't want to go to bed. To be more precise, it has some kind of insomnia: When I suspend it, it suspends successfully, but after a second or so, it wakes up again, but does not display anything on screen. I have a similar issue even when i try to power it off: It powers down successfully, but after a second or so it powers back on as if I just restarted. This happens only if i suspend/turn off the computer from this Ubuntu-based distro: [09:27] Elementary OS. I don't think it has anything to do with it not being just plain Ubuntu - pm-suspend does the same thing. [09:28] any ideas on what I should google? Or what might be the cause? [09:28] peping: ubuntu worked properly? [09:28] peping, for starters ... swap [09:28] mreq: Windows 8 works properly, I have dualboot. [09:29] cfhowlett: swap wouldn't be the cause for failing to power off without turning itself on immediatly, would it? Other than that, what is your question exactly. [09:30] peping: Elementary OS have their own IRC channel on freenode, #elementary because there could be differences between UBuntu & Elementary, you're probably better asking in that channel [09:31] ... [09:31] peping: if you have a clean install, try replacing it with ubuntu, you can install all the eos stuff [09:31] DJones: That channel is quiet and last time I asked a question there, no answer came for 2 hours, after which I gave up. And i don't think this is a distro-dependant question... [09:31] if the ubuntu suspend works, you know it's eos' fault [09:31] hgh\\ [09:32] mreq: well... Thanks, I'll try. Would a live USB stick suffice? [09:32] or is there something missing? [09:32] peping, suspend/restore issues typically implicate /swap [09:34] init 6 in chroot environment != good idea [09:34] thanks, I'll look into that too. [09:34] MonkeyDust: why did you do that? [09:35] histo testing chroot [09:35] histo also: X in chroot etc [09:36] MonkeyDust: have you played with lxc yet? [09:37] histo yes, it's with lxc [09:37] what [09:38] the difference between ubuntu server and cloud server? [09:38] MonkeyDust: Well you should be able to reboot a container just fine then.

[10:14] how can i do that? [10:15] mogaj: In the settings of the vm in vbox.

[10:30] dehbohtaw: that's extremely strange nowadays. Lots of stuff might break if you use 16bit colour [10:30] i do not have an xorg.conf [10:30] dehbohtaw: anyhow 'man Xorg' will tell you [10:31] dehbohtaw, then you should create it, containing a basic setup allowing you to define 16 bit. Also, there is no reason 16 bit5 shouldn't work [10:31] what [10:32] xorg.conf [10:33] how can i create it? i do not want to mess up my 24bit configuration which does NOT depend on an existing xorg.conf.

[10:34] coucou [10:34] ,gh, [10:34] If it existed, you would not be able to create it, so, it is implied in my response that I understand that it is not there, especially since I initially asked you to edit it. You create it using a text-editor, and you can always return to your existing (automatic, I assume) setup by simply removing or moving the file.

[10:37] how can i enable verbose booting? i mean i want to see all system messages whenever i boot up [10:37] Except, if you edit the source code of X to look for a -bpp parameter and set some overriding variable to atoi(argv[positionOfBppParm+1]) [10:38] and building X over, which seems like a huge way around not creating a configuration file [10:38] But, having hacked X and gotten out of the experience alive, I say go for it! :D [10:39] DusteD, i found the solution to my xorg question: startx -- -depth 16 [10:39] or look at the right manual page and see how to do it http://www.x.org/archive/X11R6.8.1/doc/startx.1.html [10:43] are there any chans for ubuntu@macbooks ?

[10:49] Joschii, greetings [10:49] Oh, is it "silent" ? [10:50] icedwater, quiet or silent. should be pretty obvious [10:51] Yup, I think you can change it in /etc/default/grub these days.

The first nic card would be on an internal network, the 2nd nic card (for all the other services) would be on a public IP [13:07] TheUsD: that is possible [13:08] ActionParsnip : Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS \n \l === Shubuntu is now known as Guest28000 [13:08] schnuffle: any good places for references you could refer me to?

[13:10] TheUsD: normally most of the services per default will listen to all interfaces [13:11] TheUsD: so I guess the route to take is, add second card, moce samba to listen only to the private interface, adopt the other services if they should not listen on the internall interface [13:11] schnuffle: ok. so its not a matter of hocus pocus magic, but just going into each service and telling it which eth0 to us and here's its address. === AllAmerican is now known as Trogval [13:12] TheUsD: yep [13:12] mogaj: it won't, try the web [13:12] schnuffle: thanks. [13:13] ActionParsnip : what? [13:13] TheUsD: for samba it would be: interfaces = eth* lo \ bind interfaces only = yes in smb.conf [13:14] mogaj: the command has no output but sets a DNS server so try to browse some sites [13:15] ok [13:15] does v4l2 only allow one instance on a system?? [13:15] schnuffle: awesome, you just saved me a lot of time, lol. Just out of theory, do you think all services and devices will stay default to the current eth* and all I would need to do is change smb.conf to lets say the new one would be called eth1? [13:16] TheUsD: yes, they would not stay on eth0 but listen to all interfaces by default [13:17] schnuffle: I'm trackin. [13:17] TheUsD: trackin? [13:17] following.

[13:18] or just link to them [13:19] Kii, Moving system files around is generally not a good idea.

[13:27] do you guys recommend that i install ubuntu on a windows 7 computer thats my school computer but that i get to keep but i wnt ubuntu but im not sure if i should just install it over wubi [13:28] samgabbay, you should remove the hdd with windows 7 and put it away. then install a new hdd and install ubuntu on it [13:29] samgabbay, virtualbox would be better , and wubi is no longer supported afaik [13:29] samgabbay: forget about wubi, use virtualization ( virtualbox) or setup a dual boot win/lin. I do both [13:29] somsip: Please check it: http://dpaste.com/1210892/ aby idea? [13:29] @compdoc the isssue with that is that i cant cause its the school board :/ but i wanted to know if i should get it with wubi so then i could quickly uninstall [13:29] hello all, i m in desperate need of assitance after a 4 day struggle to install ubuntu server on a dell server poweredge R720. [13:29] The situation: install finishes sucessfully as i can see. reboot required and there is the problem. No boot device found!

To what end? [13:30] beause i need it to be super easy to uninstall [13:30] which software to use to download video:somsip? [13:31] tithan: I answered your question already [13:31] samgabbay: from my point of view both is easy to uninstall [13:31] and does it matter if wubi is unsupported because from 12.10 i will update it to 13.04 [13:31] i guess il just test and try [13:31] because i dont think i have a uefi [13:31] you can still run virtual box with ubunru as the guest OS , it's not going to change anything in the windows OS [13:31] Boot issues on fresh install problem with past bin link http://paste.ubuntu.com/5732604/ [13:31] @blues but i dont get it as fast asif i install on wubi :/ [13:32] cause look http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/hardware/201202-10548/ [13:32] adamk_, I can, however I'm connecting this monitor after boot [13:32] Thank you all [13:32] somsip: That is the only way, right ?. I need python 2.5 in ubuntu 12.04. [13:32] khamer, OK, so pastebin those things after you connect the monitor. [13:32] well, samgabbay that's your decision , if it's against the rules then there's no point going any further [13:33] samgabbay,^ [13:33] saju_m: You can use this http://is.gd/0USVvA BUT...

I've given you a way to install 2.5 alongside the current version. It will probably work fine, but it is unsupported so it is at your own risk. Easier than compiling from a tarball though IMHO [13:36] adamk_: doing a tail -F of /var/log/dmesg and /var/log/Xorg.0.log don't show any output at all when I connect the monitor... never the less http://pastebin.com/CKXiKFgk http://pastebin.com/bHX5zExF [13:36] do you think if i install ubuntu on a vbox it would run as good as if i installed it with wubi on this pc http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/hardware/201202-10548/ [13:36] saju_m: then you should adopt it to run with python 2.7, shouldn't be that hard [13:36] I have used HP for Ubuntu and I do not think its friendly to Ubuntu due to the ATI graphics.

Could very well be a bug. [13:38] thanks [13:39] Hm, I will give it a go, but the newer kernel seemed significantly more suspect, but I suppose since the logs aren't showing anything that's not a terrible idea, biab [13:39] samgabbay, @ isn't required to highlight nicks on irc , just start typing the nick and use the tab to complete it [13:40] thanks man [13:40] @blues but if i run it on vm will it run as fast on this pc http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/hardware/201202-10548/ === n0u is now known as nou [13:41] BluesKaj: oops [13:41] samgabbay: No virtualization always has some performance effects, but if you want to choose between wubi and virtualbox, then use virtualbox [13:42] samgabbay, VB is more relaible and more seamless than wubi when switching between OSs === noTch is now known as Guest10465 [13:42] schnuffle: mhmmmmmmm what if i play games on vbox with this pc would it run them well? http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/hardware/201202-10548/ [13:42] You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver.

Then you can set it back to the default state in case you run into problems [13:50] TKing, Having an ATI GPU, however, does not necessarily mean it's not friendly.

I would go with the stick use yumi ( windows tool ) to create the stick [13:56] hum [13:57] adamk_, actually, I had to go back several kernels before it would work, now on 3.5.0-15 instead of 3.7.x or 3.8.x [13:57] schnuffle: il figure it out later im just trying to see if wubi would work [13:57] 3.8 [13:57] samgabbay: wubi should work but seems to cause a lot of problems with updating [13:57] anonymousjin: if that was me, I tried a 3.7.x kernel as well with no luck [13:58] Hello people :) I got some issues updating my ubuntu here, i got this lovely orange triangle top right, and it says " The update information is outdated, this could be caused by network issues or by a repository no longer available" [13:58] and im not able to fix it:( [13:58] schnuffle: alright il see and if it does il tell you guys [13:58] who can help me out about Nvidia Driver?

[14:03] schnuffle: then wubi will install from it?\ [14:03] samgabbay: yes but in antoher way, when you have mounted the iso open a explorer go to it and you will see the wubi binary on it as well, execute it from there and it should install [14:04] schnuffle: i did and it stull wants to download something\ [14:04] samgabbay, you'll regeret choosing wubi [14:04] BluesKaj: whyt [14:04] it's too restrictive [14:04] AndEilert: there's a PPA for moonlight that doesn't exists [14:05] BluesKaj: in what way?

[14:07] adamk_, after rebooting again (for the fifth or sixth time, but first time after getting it working with the 3.5 kernel) it now works with the 3.8 kernel immediately on boot, so there must be some kind of state somewhere [14:07] BluesKaj: in what way? [14:07] khamer, Ahhh, that could be... The display controller may be getting out-of-whack. [14:08] like, the hardware itself? [14:09] khamer, Sounds like it, yes. [14:09] sam you seem determined to use wubi , so i won't waste my time trying to change your decision ,. you'll understand after a few days [14:09] de\ [14:10] 일게이있냐?

[14:13] file explorer [14:13] BluesKaj: I think one problem people are up against is that some systems now-days come with Win8 pre-loaded and there are already 4 primary partitions. It is not [really] a good reason to use wubi but a deterrant to repartitioning and doing a real Linux install. I dono if that is the case with sam but.... [14:13] BluesKaj its upgrading [14:13] aladdin: Its the default file explorer in Ubuntu [14:13] DJones, thanks [14:14] aladdin: On 13.04's unity bar, it shows up as 'Files' [14:14] So, I'm trying to install Windows 7 onto the same drive (separate partition) as my /home/ partition but setup gives an error about not being able to create a system partition. Does anyone know a way around this? [14:14] admak, i fixed my problem [14:14] question. is there a way to wget everything in a dirrectory with only one command? [14:14] BluesKaj: Having said the above, I agree with you and anyone else that thinks that wubi leaves a lot to be desired and that nothing can beat a real install. [14:15] intersted in the solution ? i juste had to apt-get install xorg-dev [14:15] zephyr28: wouldn't a vm with win7 help you? [14:15] anyone know what is the best version of unbent to install on a G5 powermac? [14:16] jnhghy, not sure how that would help. I need to install Win7 natively. Where you going with that? [14:16] usr13: BluesKaj someone mentioned the next ubuntu wouldn't have wubi anymore. \o/ [14:16] usr13, he seems to have work restrictions , that's why I recommended VB vs wubi ... easier to switch OSs quickly [14:17] Any packages you guys would recommend for screen recording? [14:17] BluesKaj: zykotick9 VB is a much better alternative. I agree totally. [14:17] I'd like to record a video of actions on the screen, so I can send it in to customer support for an app that's crashing. *sigh* [14:17] Is anyone running ubuntu on a t430s?

[14:18] DJones: thank you [14:18] Hi there I am trying to increase the preview thumbnails when selecting for example a picture to upload would anyone know how I can increase the size [14:18] usr13, zykotick9 , yes I read that wubi is about to be dropped or already is [14:18] ehmatthes: I'm running it on a W530. *LOVE IT* [14:18] supportwise that is [14:18] BluesKaj: zykotick9 Only thing is, it would be upside down in my opinion. I would much rather have the MS OS in the VB. :) [14:18] SuperLag: W530 with nvs 5200? Are you using bumblebee? [14:19] ehmatthes: no, the W530 has a Quadro [14:19] back again [14:19] Hi everyone! I'm trying to use the default IM client "empathy", I added my gtalk account, but i get random errors, it says "google talk account requires authorisation" but I already did that. And it's very confusing as it happens 50% of the time. I don't know where else to ask [14:19] SuperLag: Is that an optimus card? Do you run bumblebee? [14:19] ehmatthes: and no bumblebee, because EFI options on this model let you select the Nvidia and fix it to that option [14:19] str, does it work in pidgin? [14:19] usr13, agreeed, but if the workplace requires W7 or 8 , then VB is the only choice , I think [14:20] BluesKaj: agreed [14:20] ehmatthes: I just set it to "Discrete" for the Nvidia, and use the proprietary driver [14:20] johnjohn101, yes, kind of.. it throws another not related error with the windows live account [14:20] thank you anyway, byebye [14:20] AndEilert: then you should be able to load the repo updates as normal [14:21] SuperLag: Is the choice discrete, or integrated? Is the integrated another nvidia, or is it intel? [14:21] ehmatthes: Integrated is Intel. [14:21] SuperLag: I'm not a graphics-intensive person, so I appreciate you sharing your experience. [14:21] Hello [14:21] schnuffle: well alright, what does theee moonlight thingy do? [14:21] ehmatthes: give me a minute, I'll reboot... there are 3 choices. One for just Intel (Integrated), one for just Nvidia (Discrete), and one to switch... don't remember its name. [14:22] SuperLag: I assume if there was any real issue with ubuntu on a particular thinkpad, I'd hear about it all over the internet? [14:22] can anyone tell me how the ubuntu Task manager works, in comparison to the windows 7 one? [14:22] ehmatthes: if you'll wait here, I'll reboot, go look, and come back [14:22] AndEilert: its the pinta ppa moonlight-team/pinta [14:22] SuperLag: Thanks, I'll stick around. [14:22] what's the best way to determine when I did a 'safe-upgrade' that broke X/terminal logins? only ssh works [14:22] ehmatthes: Okay. brb. [14:22] OH [14:22] yes okay [14:22] thanks schnuffle !:D [14:23] AndEilert: it could be that you run into problems if the pinta installed from the PPA is newer then the pinta from the raring repos [14:24] FourFire: in what sense? [14:24] How do they function differently? [14:24] FourFire: both allow you to manage tasks and if ran using gksudo you may be able to set nice values [14:24] Why does windows Task Manager take up 25% of my CPU time and Ubuntu's doesn't? [14:25] FourFire: you'd have to ask windows guys [14:25] ah, ok, any channels like that on this network? [14:25] FourFire: ##windows [14:25] FourFire: ##windows [14:25] ty [14:26] ehmatthes: the third option is "NVIDIA Optimus" [14:26] ehmatthes: but I just stick to using the Nvidia. [14:26] ehmatthes: so I set it to Discrete. [14:27] ehmatthes: this eliminates the need for bumblebee [14:27] SuperLag: That sounds right. I assume if there were consistent issues with ubuntu on a particular thinkpad, I'd read about it after a little research? [14:27] ehmatthes: that said... I heard some talk that newer versions of the Nvidia driver support Optimus natively, and it make bumblebee unnecessary [14:28] ehmatthes: but since I never tried the Optimus option, I can't say... [14:28] SuperLag: Do you lose battery life with dedicated, or is it just the switching that drains battery life? [14:28] ehmatthes: I assume there is some hit to battery life. I don't know how much. [14:29] SuperLag: Okay, thank you. This has been really helpful. Can't wait to have my first ThinkPad! [14:29] ehmatthes: and people have reported issues with even this model of ThinkPad, but it's been earlier versions of Ubuntu. [14:29] ehmatthes: Personally, I recommend the W530. Yes, it's bigger. Yes, it costs more. But I've got this thing really loaded up. [14:29] ehmatthes: 32GB of RAM. multiple SSDs [14:29] SuperLag: I'm fine to stay on LTS versions, and not upgrade immediately. I do webdev work mostly, and don't need latest and greatest. [14:30] This configuration cost me about $1600, as I already had the SSDs. [14:30] Hi there I am trying to increase the preview thumbnails when selecting for example a picture to upload would anyone know how I can increase the size [14:30] SuperLag: Holy heck, I'm going to get 8GB ram with one SSD and I'll be a happy camper. Upgrade from a 4GB Dell 32-bit with HDD. [14:31] ehmatthes: I'm doing multiple VMs on here though, often simultaneously [14:31] SuperLag: On a budget, can't afford to end up with something that doesn't play nice with ubuntu. In southeast Alaska, can't really visit a store and try different machines out. [14:31] AFK? [14:31] BluseKaj ? [14:32] ehmatthes: well, I can give a ringing endorsement to this W530. [14:32] SuperLag: Thanks again, going to log off and order my T430s! [14:32] The fingerprint reader is the only thing I'm going to need to figure out. [14:32] ehmatthes: hold on [14:33] SuperLag: still here [14:33] ehmatthes: there's a website you should check out... I *think* it's linlap.com [14:34] uh!. where I should put memmap= kernel option, so that every kernel / GRUB2 Ubuntu menu entry, will have that parameters? Somewhere in /etc/grub.d/10_linux ? and rerun update-grub? [14:34] ehmatthes: yeah, that's the one [14:34] NoTech, now run sudo nvidia-xconfig . then reboot [14:34] done [14:34] brb [14:35] ehmatthes: keep in mind, some of that info may refer to older versions of $DISTRO. But it's a good reference point. [14:35] SuperLag: thanks, that confirms what I'm thinking [14:35] hello everyone! [14:35] ehmatthes: going to send you a pm [14:36] I want to know what is the benefit/necessity of upgrading to a new kernel? [14:36] kutulal: usually new features and bug fixes, new hardware support [14:36] kutulal: normally drivers that don't come with a old release, sometimes speed improvements [14:37] Thanks! [14:37] kutulal: it's not a trivial thing to upgrade the kernel in Ubuntu, though [14:37] as it includes a lot of patches [14:37] SuperLag: My irc setup is a bit flaky. I've never done pm's, not sure where I'll see it. [14:37] SuperLag: what's hard about doing a aptitude install kernel-image-xxxxxx? [14:38] ehmatthes: do this from your window... /msg SuperLag hello [14:38] then see if you get another window [14:38] When logging off or rebooting my system, at the login screen, the background is always a screenshot of whatever was displaying when I logged off. Why and how can I fix this? [14:39] hi, i'm using ubuntu 12.04 and i'm using nm-applet for network manager, but this nm-applet freeze some times. How can i resolve this problem? === hateball_ is now known as hateball === BradCrittenden is now known as bac === _BJfreeman is now known as BJfreeman [14:40] schnuffle: well... I don't know about kutulal, but if I was going to be asking about upgrading the kernel, it wouldn't be that one... it'd be the latest and greatest kernel.org kernel. And I doubt that's on Ubuntu mirrors. [14:41] SuperLag: okay, that's true :) [14:42] schnuffle: and installing one of those kernels... it's not trivial. Much easier to do that on Gentoo or Arch. But that's off-topic. :) [14:42] BluesKaj thanks NVIDIA X Server Settings is running but the resolution wont take more than 640x480 [14:43] how to speed up my ubuntu 12.04? [14:44] d [14:45] NVIDIA X Server Settings is running but the resolution wont take more than 640x480 [14:45] noTech, the nvidia settings GUI ?

[15:04] schnuffle adamk_ linuxCool [15:05] noTech, The nvidia driver is unable to read the EDID from your monitor. [15:05] Is this an old monitor? [15:05] nope [15:05] i think noTech needs linux-source linux-headers installed , then he has to remove the nvidia cuurent driver and reinstallit [15:05] Samsung sync master [15:05] BluesKaj, Why do you think that? The Xorg log file doesn't show any problems with the kernel module being loaded. [15:06] BluesKaj, The nvidia driver is reported two connected ports on your GPU, CRT-0 and CRT-1. Is that monitor connected via a VGA or DVI port? [15:06] noTech, ^^ [15:06] D'oh. [15:07] adamk_ both [15:07] adamk_,, it's showing all the symptoms of this problem even tho it's a recent card , http://askubuntu.com/questions/294561/ubuntu-13-04-monitor-resolution-issues-on-older-nvidia-card [15:07] dual monitor === _gcx is now known as gcx [15:08] adamk_ 12.04 detects my both monitor :'( [15:08] adamk_, ask noTech [15:08] Chaps, quick question -- if I install on to a persistent thumbdrive, and run sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get upgrade, plus install any packages, do they "remain" installed? [15:09] noTech, what kind of connection to the monitotr VGA DVi or Hdmi ? [15:09] BluesKaj one VGA one DVI [15:09] noTech, All I can suggest is trying to force the driver to not use EDID... http://brainwreckedtech.wordpress.com/2012/08/19/howto-get-nvidia-on-linux-to-use-custom-resolutions-over-dvi/ [15:09] why vga if you use dvi , noTech? [15:09] noTech, I really have no experience with that. You could try BluesKaj's suggestion, but I don't think that's going to make a difference. [15:09] BluesKaj dual monitor? [15:10] BluesKaj i have only 2 slots for monitors one VGA one DVI [15:10] adamk_ Thanks ;) [15:10] noTech, doesn't that card ahve 2 dvi outs [15:11] BluesKaj nope [15:11] BluesKaj both monitors work fine but resolution [15:12] is 640x480 [15:12] ? [15:12] yes noTech of , I have no experience with dual monitors ...you could have told us sooner [15:12] noTech, Disconnect the one connected over VGA, reboot and see if the resolution works on the DVI one... [15:12] noTech, And BluesKaj is right... This is something you should have mentioned at the start. [15:12] is there exist any app that manage specific app use specific network interface? [15:12] both in GUI and CLI [15:13] BluesKaj adamk_ let me reboot [15:13] brb [15:13] Anyone know how I can mark a partition as "System" from either GParted or terminal? Windows refuses to install [15:14] Chaps, quick question -- if I install on to a persistent thumbdrive, and run sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get upgrade, plus install any packages, do they "remain" installed? [15:14] any idea? [15:14] Mk558: Live image, no; installed onto USB from installer, YES [15:15] hello [15:15] me again [15:15] I have an ubuntu set up and use a tv 46 "as a monitor for link monitoring. Is there any way to switch between workspaces after a certain time? For example, 3 seconds in workspace 1, after 3 seconds switch to workspace 2. [15:16] or change workspace via command line? [15:16] SonikkuAmerica: so if I use the Installer to format the thumbdrive as the usual ext3 just as if I was with a normal hard drive then yes? [15:17] the USB startup disk creator appears to just $ dd (almost) the install CD [15:17] Mk558: If you're not creating a Live image from it, yes. [15:17] Mk558: If it's dd'ing, no [15:17] and props to the ubuntu team for not needing a 1.1GB DVD or a 750MB CD that has to download like 500MB [15:17] vs debian [15:17] (even though it's got a debian base) [15:18] SonikkuAmerica: the install via the installer will still boot though with grub etc? [15:18] Mk558: there are debian netinstall with 100MB [15:18] adamk_ BluesKaj [15:18] yes and when you have a 1.3Mbps network it's kind of painful [15:18] Is there a way so that the ubuntu will ask for a password in order to shut down? [15:19] Mk558: Nope. It boots off the USB booting parameters in your computer's BIOS or (U)EFI standars. [15:19] Mk558: aah, you meant the reverse you like having everything already downloaded [15:19] Mk558: *standard [15:19] adamk_ BluesKaj one monitor on VGA but not different [15:19] noTech: try this gksu nvidia-settings [15:19] got it [15:19] linuxCool ok [15:19] noTech, my suggestion was to disconnect the one on VGA. [15:19] noTech, I suspect that's the one causing problems. [15:20] an there will be have - (II) NVIDIA(0): Setting mode "nvidia-auto-select" [15:20] adamk_ so ill come with DVi right? [15:20] I have an ubuntu set up and use a tv 46 "as a monitor for link monitoring. Is there any way to switch between workspaces after a certain time? For example, 3 seconds in workspace 1, after 3 seconds switch to workspace 2. [15:20] noTech, I'd be interested in know if that works any better. [15:21] select your resolution and save it to x. [15:21] reboot to test. [15:21] linuxCool gksu nvidia-settings runs X Server Settings right? === sandeepr is now known as sandeepr_ltp [15:23] noTech: not exactly [15:23] noTech: runs NVIDIA X Server Settings [15:23] linuxCool: so opens the xorg on gedit? [15:23] linuxCool: exactly === sandeepr_ltp is now known as sandeepr [15:23] noTech, ActionParsnip had a valid question that you haven't answered and I think if your upgrade leapfrogged over 12.10 to 13.04 from 12.04 then Ithink that's the source of your problem. [15:24] noTech: yes because you jumped a release [15:24] noTech: uninstall and reinstall the driver may help but you have upgraded in a non-recommended way [15:24] BluesKaj ActionParsnip tell me what should i do now [15:24] noTech: the _correct_ way to upgrade is to upgrade to the next release, or if you are on LTS you can upgrade direct to the next LTS [15:25] qiut [15:25] noTech: Try to select supported resolution to monitor and CRT (don't use auto select) [15:25] noTech: why you are leaving LTS which is supported til April 2017 to get to a support with 9 months support is a bit of a weird one for me [15:25] linuxCool theres only 2 options [15:25] noTech: witch? [15:26] noTech: (II) NVIDIA(0): Setting mode "nvidia-auto-select" [15:26] linuxCool 640x480 and 320x240 [15:26] ActionParsnip didnt know that [15:26] linuxCool, read my and ActionParsnip 's posts ..that's the problem here [15:27] noTech: which? the method or the support length? === apricot is now known as Guest73447 [15:27] So...

Installing 148 new libs. [18:13] Hi! My ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS server says, that there's 10 packages to update, 6 are security updates. And when I do the sudo apt-get upgrade, comes up that "The following packages have been kept back" and list of packages. So, how to install those updates? [18:14] Installing a 32-bits lib on your 64 bits system will require the installation of dependencies. And the dependencies' deps, and so on... [18:14] Might be heavy :p [18:14] spexi: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade === cptmashek_ is now known as cptmashek [18:14] spexi: you /probably/ want to use "dist-upgrade" instead of "upgrade" but you should paste the actual error if you're not sure of the difference [18:14] mreq, Libraries that are only being used to play awesomenouts would not impact the stability of a system when not playing awesomenouts. [18:15] adamk_: I am just afraid of bloating my system, probably in vain. [18:15] mreq, I don't even see how they would impact the speed of the running system. [18:15] jrib: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5733417/ [18:16] Would affect the disk space for probably no reason, anyway. [18:16] It lists 6 packages (I guess those are the security ones) [18:16] Disk space is not a problem. [18:16] Should try a dist-upgrade ? [18:16] That is a bit weird, that the "error" doesn't advice to use dist-upgrade. It just says that these are kept back. [18:17] spexi: take a look at the command that was given to you. dist-upgrade not only upgrade [18:17] yeah, I will try that [18:17] spexi: yeah, dist-upgrade will install packages when dependencies change. That's certainly what's happening with the linux-* packages. I'm not aware of exactly how mysql-* packages are setup but it's similar. dist-upgrade and see if you still have issues === Corey_ is now known as Corey [18:17] okay, thanks [18:17] Just wanted to understand why this happened, and now I got it. [18:18] spexi: a apt-get upgrade doesnt install new packages, it will just update packages. dist-upgrade is the one to use for the new packages to be installed [18:18] okay, thanks === AntiSpamMeta_ is now known as AntiSpamMeta === erry_ is now known as erry [18:20] !netsplit [18:20] netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other.

[21:06] oodaloop: typically swap is in fstab. but it's never "mounted". use "free" to see if you currently have any. [21:06] Can you try 'swapon -s'? [21:06] i havent any at the moment. [21:07] well that answers another question. Gui shit not working properly on my old machine was an OpenVZ issue. Things work fine in VMware. [21:07] din: s/usually// [21:07] oodaloop: Also you can use 'cat /proc/swaps' [21:07] zykotick9: yes. [21:07] proc/swaps reports nothing. [21:07] Is there "purchase support" or something like that I can email? I have an error with a payment (redemption in the ubuntu software store) [21:09] din: you might want to see "/msg ubottu swap" for some other details about swap... [21:09] zykotick9: i didn't ask the question to begin with. :) [21:09] I was trying to resize it. i did swapoff ; lvm lvreduce ; mkswap ; swapon -va [21:09] din: no, but your reply isn't really accurate [21:09] swapon -va didnt seem to do anything. confirmed with free and /proc/swaps [21:10] i just installed mint, trying to install ati drivers, none of the help sites are working. can someone help plz === magpii is now known as Guest3511 [21:10] no entry in fstab, which is what swapon is looking in [21:10] yes because of "usually". i get it. it's not mounted. [21:10] magpii: What is wrong? [21:10] din: no, the other stuff you said. [21:11] is anyone familiar with v4l drivers? [21:12] Whistlepig: fdisk -l does not like my device : doesnt contain a vaild partition table [21:12] !mint | Guest3511 magpii [21:12] Guest3511 magpii: Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org [21:13] oodaloop: Have you tried restarting and seeing if the problem resolves? (I'm not being snarky with that comment) [21:13] damn server wouldnt let me type here [21:13] oodaloop: if you are using GPT, replace "sudo fdisk -l" with "sudo parted -l" [21:13] ok, i have a fresh install of mint, trying to install ati drivers, but i keep getting errors when i follow recomended install instructions [21:13] !mint | binkiie [21:13] binkiie: Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org [21:14] Whistlepig: no snark inferred. I'd much, _MUCH_ prefer to know it is resolved before rebooting. [21:15] oodaloop: Have you had swap previously? As in, did the swap suddenly disappear, or are you unclear if it was ever turned on? === _gcx is now known as gcx [21:15] zykotick9: that returns a lot of information. including useful, accurate information about the swap volume i resized. [21:16] oodaloop: If there is no entry for your swap partition in your fstab then swapon -a won't do anything. You can either "swapon /dev/mapper/foo" or add a proper fstab entry (if you want it to be automatically used at boot). [21:16] Whistlepig: I had swap previously. the stock install allocated too much ( IMO ) and I wanted to resize it down. [21:16] oodaloop: If there is an old swap entry in the fstab then you'll need to update it with the new UUID. [21:17] quick question, if i wanted to edit some values in the v4l drivers, how do i do that? [21:17] specificly dvb-core and budget_ci [21:18] Jordan_U: there wasnt an old entry, thats what is confusing me. there is an old entry somewhere. I'm fine updating fstab with the new UUID, but surely I'm stepping on some other config? [21:19] oodaloop: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq#How_do_I_add_more_swap.3F might help a little bit, or at least point you on some hints. Have you looked at the drive with a drive partitioner at all? [21:19] oodaloop: If there wasn't previously an fstab entry, and you weren't issuing swapon manually, then the swap wasn't being used. [21:19] Is it possible to install Ubuntu with XBMC on a 4GB flash drive? [21:20] Jordan_U: then, there is a bug in the Ubuntu installer: Ubuntu creates swap partition but does not configure it for swap. [21:20] ThePendulum: you could try with the mini.iso [21:20] !mini | ThePendulum [21:20] ThePendulum: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want. The installer is text based (rather than graphical as used on the Desktop DVD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD [21:21] zykotick9: i don't think that article is correct. i have never seen a swap partition used for anything but memory overflow and i've been a unix/linux sysadmin for 20+ years. it most certainly does not put "unusued" programs there to "make your system faster". on the contrary, when you start swapping data to disk it slows down quite a bit. [21:22] din: swap is also used for suspend [21:22] auronandace: Heh, thanks [21:22] k1l_: yes, this is true. [21:22] hwhy is the following command failing, I added the phablet/tools repos to sources [21:22] apt-get install phablet-tools android-tools-adb android-tools-fastboot [21:22] hallo und guten Abend ich wollte mal was nach fragen wo finde ich ein Deutsches Forum hier === otak is now known as torg_ [21:23] din: Swap only works strictly the way that you describe when swappiness is set to 0. [21:23] i wasnt trying to start a war about what swap is used for, I'm just confused about how the installer for Raring 'configures' it. [21:23] brx_: which ubuntu exactly? and can you pastebin the error [21:23] yes k11 one sec [21:23] home_: in #ubuntu-de [21:24] k1l_: i was referring to a server type scenario, not a laptop or the sort. [21:24] ahh, can I add these reposif I am running crunchbang? [21:24] jo Danke kil ;) [21:24] i thought with them both being debien it would work her ein crunchbang [21:24] brx_: dont know, better ask crunchbang support [21:24] ok thanks k1l_ [21:25] Jordan_U: yes. default swapiness = 60, but i prefer 0. why swap anything if you have enought memory. [21:26] din: to keep services alive in peak times. [21:27] din, does hibernate need swap? [21:28] hi, does anybody know how i can read the intel chip though the terminal that is connected with ethernet?? [21:29] din: Imagine as an extreme hypothetical that you start your machine and open firefox with 500 tabs, then you decide to watch do some video editing for the next few hours. If you have swapiness set to 0 then firefox will be using RAM that could otherwise help speed up video editing by caching files. Wouldn't it be better to swap out firefoxes (currently unused) pages to make more RAM available for caching the files that you're ... [21:29] ... actually working with? [21:29] tux_: What do you want to read from it? [21:29] din: s/watch do/do/ [21:30] i want to know the type [21:31] tux_: Try 'lspci | grep -i eth' [21:32] hi friends [21:32] Hi tulamba [21:32] I am running ubuntu 12.4. When I open Terminal I see a title bar in the window. But when I open Firefox it is full screen without titlebars. [21:32] Jordan_U: not sure that firefox would handle 500 tabs (laughable) but I see your point. [21:32] i need help installing ubuntu on lenovo y400 [21:32] My question is: how do I enable normal windows with title bars for everything? [21:33] i need help installing ubuntu on lenovo y400 [21:33] thanks, thas was it. [21:33] i am getting blank screen after installation [21:33] joako: For Firefox, you probably have it in full screen mode; press F11. [21:34] tulamba: So the Ubuntu installer completes without any error message, but when you try to reboot it fails? [21:34] SonikkuAmerica, No. I still see the toolbars and menu [21:34] Yes Jordan_U you are right [21:34] tux_: Glad to help! [21:34] tulamba: What exactly do you see when you try to boot your installed system? [21:34] joako: Oh, duh! Have you heard of the global menu? [21:34] bye [21:35] Jordan_U, i see a blank screen [21:35] joako: Also, do you have a little button near the 1st tab that says "Firefox" on it? [21:35] no grub menu, nothing [21:35] tulamba: blank being white or black? You don't see any BIOS POST first? [21:35] black [21:35] joako, thats Unity for you, get rid of Unity, no problem [21:35] so, I've rebooted, and the boot screen states: [21:36] Jordan_U, its black [21:36] tulamba: I asked two questions. You only answered one. [21:36] Is there a PPA for Chrome Canary i.e. the dev build? [21:36] 'Ubuntu 13.04 . . . . An error occured while mounting swap. Press S to skip mounting or M for manual recovery' [21:36] I dont want the bi-daily, just the more stable version [21:36] w30, Yes I just want a standard Gnome or KDE desktop with windows and titlebars and such... is that possible? [21:36] oodaloop: Could you please pastebin your /etc/fstab? [21:37] oh, no chrome canary for linux :( [21:37] anyone using apt-fast instead of apt-get? [21:37] Jordan_U: just as soon as I've booted, certainly :D [21:37] joako: if you want kde install kde. if you want gnome-shell install gnome shell [21:37] Jordan_U, what do you mean by post? What should i expect to see? [21:37] Hello, I'm trying to set up Gnu/Linux on a low hard disk storage and low memory system(512MB RAM and 80GB HDD). Is Lubuntu a good choice here, or would I be better off with Debian? The machine should run a lightweight DE, support HP printers, and be pretty fast. It will be used for web browsing, email, printing, and light word processing tasks. Any ideas? [21:37] oodaloop: You can safely press S to skip it. [21:37] joako, install the kde desktop or enlightenment or lxde or some such [21:37] joako: If you want the full desktop stuff, install kubuntu-desktop or ubuntu-gnome-desktop [21:37] hey everyone [21:38] Jordan_U: I'd tried M already, but I've no UI response yet. [21:38] joako, w30: It's called e17 [21:38] e [21:38] !e [21:38] Enlightenment (or "E") is a window manager for X, providing a useful, and good looking graphical shell in which to work. E17 is the current development version. [21:38] SonikkuAmerica, thanks [21:38] tulamba: Power On Self Test, the screens that come from your boot firmware. I doubt that you just turn your computer on and immediately see a black screen and nothing else. [21:38] Well what is the least invasive way to get a standard desktop? It seems Unity is a theme for Gnome... can I just load the default unmolested Gnome theme? [21:39] unity is a SHELL for gnome [21:39] as is gnome-shell [21:39] SonikkuAmerica, whatever it is I kinda like it. [21:39] theres dozens of other desktops you can install Joah [21:39] joako: You can install gnome-shell. [21:39] oops joako [21:39] joako: [ sudo apt-get install gnome-shell gdm && sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm ] and select gdm, then you're golden [21:39] Jordan_U, i see lenovo on the screen and then black screen [21:39] joako, sudo apt-get install lubuntu-desktop for a light minimal desktop enviroment [21:39] Ok so do I just install gnome-shell and reboot? (does ctrl+alt+blkspace work in Ubuntu) and then I should get a normal desktop? [21:39] anyone using apt-fast instead of apt-get? [21:39] joako: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3 ; sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get install gnome [21:40] joako, what the heck, try'em all [21:40] tulamba: Do you know if this is a UEFI or BIOS based computer? [21:40] joako: Or install xubuntu-desktop for an environment based off XFCE [21:40] joako, what ubuntu release are you using? [21:40] Dr_willis: joako said 12.04 [21:40] w30, No it´s a working system. I just want titlebars in the least invasive way. [21:40] joako: just logout [21:40] Jordan_U, its a UEFI based laptop, Lenovo Y400 [21:41] joako, they all will add a login choice so you can switch at login time [21:41] one question, do i edit this http://linuxtv.org/downloads/v4l-dvb-apis/dmx_fcalls.html#DMX_SET_BUFFER_SIZE in this file http://linuxtv.org/downloads/v4l-dvb-apis/dmx_h.html ? [21:41] tulamba: Try pressing escape about once per second during boot and see if you get brought to a grub menu. [21:41] least invasive way - dosent really mean a lot to me. [21:41] joako: If you want Unity without the global menu, use [ sudo apt-get remove appmenu-gtk appmenu-gtk3 appmenu-qt ] and reboot [21:41] I'm trying to set up Gnu/Linux on a low hard disk storage and low memory system(512MB RAM and 80GB HDD). Is Lubuntu a good choice here, or would I be better off with Debian? The machine should run a lightweight DE, support HP printers, and be pretty fast. It will be used for web browsing, email, printing, and light word processing tasks. Any ideas? [21:41] Jordan_U, but there is a legacy support too [21:41] if you dont like the global menu - that can be disabled. [21:41] anyone using apt-fast instead of apt-get? [21:41] SonikkuAmerica, Will that bring back the title bar to firefox? [21:42] joako, you cn disable the global menu on a per app-basis with a little work also. I THINK firefox has a extension installed by default that enables the global menu feature. [21:42] joako: I asked earlier about that... do you have a button next to the first tab in Firefox that says "Firefox"? [21:42] How's it going #ubuntu? [21:42] joako, Dr_willis: firefox-globalmenu [21:42] Jordan_U: attack of the pebkac. i typoed s/swap/spwa in fstab [21:42] oodaloop: :) [21:43] http://askubuntu.com/search?tab=votes&q=disable%20global%20menu [21:43] i'm still baffled, but there are some hints in /etc/init about managing swap there. [21:44] which i assume is an artifact of mounting it via lvm [21:44] billkd, I have Lubuntu on a 3.6 gig atom netbook, got about 2.5 gig left to play on [21:45] w30: billkd left [21:45] SonikkuAmerica, oh, well.. [21:45] w30: He's in #lubuntu asking the same thing [21:46] SonikkuAmerica, patience is in short supply these days [21:46] w30: Mm-hmm. [21:47] hi all. got problems with my 8168/8111f realtek nic. It doesn't work at all until I turn autoneg off or put it into speed 10 duplex half mode. What can the problem be? [21:47] * oodaloop rants I realize I have 32GB of RAM but that doesnt mean I wanted swap eating half of my 64GB boot SSD. [21:47] Is there a config file I can edit to change the default to be gnome-shell instead of unity? [21:48] joako: just log out and choose when loggin in [21:48] joako: the last used desktop will be the standard [21:48] joako, and if you actually don't need unity, there is a gnome ubuntu edition === soul is now known as SouL [21:50] thanks Jordan_U Whistlepig zykotick9 for your help. [21:51] I appreciate the help but none of it answers the basic question: what config file sets the default desktop? [21:52] !lightdm | joako [21:52] has anyone ever used RedoBackup to backup a windows 8 EFI system? [21:52] does it work? [21:52] vadimkolchev: It's Ubuntu GNOME... not GNOME Ubuntu :) [21:52] joako: see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LightDM === Hasclaw is now known as jamme [21:53] SonikkuAmerica, lol, i didn't mean the name, just the meaning)) [21:53] :) [21:53] So dpkg-reconfigure gnome-shell ? [21:53] joako: ? [21:54] k1l_: No !flag for lightdm? O_o [21:54] i don´t want to use lightdm I want to use gnome-shell that I just installed as the default [21:54] did you even look into the link i gave you? [21:54] joako: you need a DM in ubuntu to start the xserver for you === schizo is now known as bwall [21:54] Yes it says ¨dpkg-reconfigure lightdm¨ but I want to use gnome-shell so I used ¨dpkg-reconfigure gnome-shell¨ and got no error [21:55] so its lightdm as standard. that is actually the loginscreen you see [21:55] I have downloaded a 20Gb VM split in the following files: how can I install it? dyser-vm-s001.vmdk dyser-vm-s003.vmdk dyser-vm-s005.vmdk dyser-vm-s007.vmdk dyser-vm-s009.vmdk dyser-vm-s011.vmdk dyser-vm.vmdk dyser-vm.vmx [21:55] dyser-vm-s002.vmdk dyser-vm-s004.vmdk dyser-vm-s006.vmdk dyser-vm-s008.vmdk dyser-vm-s010.vmdk dyser-vm.nvram dyser-vm.vmsd dyser-vm.vmxf [21:55] how can I mount an hfsplus filesystem as writable? [21:55] I've tried force, and rw [21:55] It's not journaled [21:55] thpe2 use chmod 777 before the iso [21:55] joako: it even says how to change the default session in that wiki page. but since you refuse to listen or read: gl [21:55] it will say mounted as read only [21:55] hmm [21:56] i am trying to mount a partition ona hard drive, not an iso [21:56] And talking about the login screen how can I remove and disable ¨guest¨ to login without a password? [21:56] joako: that explained in that wiki page i gave you, too. [21:56] Hi. [21:57] I am unable to boot ubuntu on my usb. What issue could it be? [21:57] How about root I don´t see root shown in the login screen [21:57] is there any filesystem that I can write to on linux that is readable on OSX? [21:57] maybe that's a more sensible question [21:57] joako: no root in ubuntu [21:57] btw, went away from archlinux because libreoffice crashed a lot and I really work with it. Does it do such stuff in Ubuntu? [21:58] !root | joako [21:58] joako: 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 [21:58] sudo su -; paswrd [21:58] I can ssh fine with root [21:58] Hello? [21:58] joako: are you just a opensuse troll?

[21:59] SonikkuAmerica, Yes but sudu su - will drop you into a root shell instead [21:59] anyone done a benchmark of gnome 3 vs xfce? [21:59] joako: so see the bot commands and read that. [21:59] k1l_, it worked there too, but could crash in the middle of the work, not often, but i type fast and lost everything since the last autosave [21:59] joako: that is not the ubuntu way. [21:59] SonikuuAmerica:What details? [21:59] k1l_, It´s the Linux Way. [21:59] iPenguin: What kind of machine do you have? [22:00] A acer aspire one laptop [22:00] joako: then use "linux" [22:00] k1l_, Unfortunately some of my vendors only use the bastardized version.

[22:46] i did, i can't run it because of the loc [22:47] lock === sburjan_ is now known as sburjan` [22:47] bfig: Reboot and try again. [22:50] wubi.exe [22:51] iPenguin: Wubi's deprecated. [22:51] iPenguin, please don't run that in wine :-D [22:51] okm now i can [22:51] Just shut down the machine and boot from the USB [22:52] I am not running it in wine. o.o [22:52] OerHeks: Eek! [22:54] Please dont act like you know that because you dont. [22:56] iPenguin: Is that to me or OerHeks [22:56] ? [22:56] oerheks [22:56] Oh. It's a joke. Besides, it's kind of stupid if you think about it. [22:56] I am not trying to be nasty at all but he doesnt know that i am not running it in wine. [22:58] iPenguin, sudo apt-get install -f could fix some broken installs, else remove the lock like this > sudo fuser -cuk /var/lib/dpkg/lock; sudo rm -f /var/lib/dpkg/lock [22:58] http://askubuntu.com/questions/15433/how-do-i-fix-a-could-not-get-lock-var-lib-dpkg-lock-problem [22:59] I enabled the on-screen keyboard once, and now it shows up everytime I have to unlock my system [23:00] How do I disable it properly? [23:00] ThePendulum: System Settings > Universal Access > switch it off [23:01] SonikkuAmerica: I wish it was that easy. That one's switched off (obviously it would also show after unlock), but it still shows up. [23:02] ThePendulum: Do you have the Onboard indicator? If so, you can find what you're looking for in Prefs [23:02] Will that link help me sonikkuamerica? [23:03] iPenguin: Yeah... [23:03] iPenguin: no [23:03] he got people confused, I think [23:03] iPenguin: go download x64 Ubuntu 13.04 and use unetbootin to make your boot USB [23:03] that doesnt work [23:04] stop repeating please [23:04] why not? [23:04] phillyj: Then he got me confused. iPenguin, get Unetbootin and deploy the Ubuntu ISO onto your flash drive using that. [23:04] That does not work as i just said. [23:05] why not? [23:05] I just installed 12.10 on a vmware virtual machine and I can't get the option to set my display to 1920x1080 for some reason. It gives me 1920x1200 and 1920x1440 and all the way up to 2560x1600 but no 1920x1080. [23:05] Buonasera [23:05] iPenguin: Oh. Why not? [23:05] iPenguin: What error does it give? [23:06] because my computers wont work so that will stop it from booting [23:06] so therefore i think my laptop needs service. [23:06] iPenguin: what? say again please [23:07] It didnt give any errors sonjkkuamerica [23:07] your computer doesn't boot? [23:07] you said you got it to work before [23:07] From usb. [23:08] hold on; why are you doing this in the first place? I wasn't here for that part [23:10] I just installed 12.10 on a vmware virtual machine and I can't get the option to set my display to 1920x1080 for some reason. It gives me 1920x1200 and 1920x1440 and all the way up to 2560x1600 but no 1920x1080. How can I get 1920x1080 display? [23:12] Your confusing me now. [23:14] iPenguin: why are you trying to boot ubuntu from USB? [23:14] I have not got a usb. Oviously. [23:15] iPenguin: okay...thus far, we've been talking about USB booting ubuntu using unetbootin, correct? [23:15] cd* [23:15] Yes. [23:15] which it failed. [23:16] iPenguin: so why are you doing all this? did your Windows fail or something? [23:16] u said there was hardware problem earlier [23:16] iPenguin: You never specified that you were trying to use a CD [23:16] SonikkuAmerica: no, he made a typo [23:17] Windows failed to boot from usb. [23:17] iPenguin: i know your're frustrated but please read what you write before you hit enter [23:17] do you mean Ubuntu? [23:18] Yes. -,- [23:18] fail how [23:21] I just installed 12.10 on a vmware virtual machine and I can't get the option to set my display to 1920x1080 for some reason. It gives me 1920x1200 and 1920x1440 and all the way up to 2560x1600 but no 1920x1080. How can I get 1920x1080 display? [23:22] Rehan: Does 1920x1080 show up in the output of xrandr? [23:23] usr13: thank you. No it does not. === nico is now known as Guest65655 [23:23] sounds more like a vmware problem [23:23] Rehan: So it appears that your present configuration does not provide for that screen size. I suppose you will need to use another. [23:24] usr13: any idea how to fix it? [23:24] How do I increase the # of kernel's kept when Ubuntu updates? (I am referring to the power on boot menu ' Advanced options for Ubuntu ' [23:24] My monitor definitely supports 1920x1080 as well as my video card [23:24] RonWhoCares: Install more specific kernel versions [23:24] What is the default [23:24] Rehan: Not knowing what is broken, no. (And not sure that anything IS broken.) [23:25] Ok thanks, something is broken though [23:26] Rehan: xrandr | pastebinit #Let us have a look. [23:26] RonWhoCares: The default is the latest linux-generic kernel [23:26] !kernle [23:26] !kernel [23:26] The core of Ubuntu is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, and if you need to troubleshoot issues, you can try a !Mainline kernel instead, but if you insist, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile (see also !Stages) [23:26] usr13: wow, pastebinit is so cool! http://paste.ubuntu.com/5734308/ [23:28] Rehan: What does 1920x1440 look like? [23:28] Rehan: I don't see 1920x1080 anywhere in that output. [23:28] SonikkuAmerica: that's the problem [23:28] usr13: gives vertical scroll bars and a little bit of horizontal scroll bars also [23:29] Rehan: xrandr -s 1920x1440 [23:29] usr13: yea, getting scrollbars when i switch to that [23:29] Rehan: So, it doesn't really fit? [23:30] yeah, vertically it scrolls a lot, horizontally, very little [23:31] Rehan: Not sure what "vertically it scrolls a lot, horizontally, very little" means. (Acept that your saying No, it does not fit.) Right? [23:31] ok it looks like its a bug that others have experienced [23:31] with a workaround [23:32] Rehan: Ok, good. Looks like you've found a solution. [23:32] usr13: yes it doesn't fit. I meant that there's a scrollbar that allows me to scroll up and down and it has a lot of possible motion on it, whereas the scrollbar that lets me scroll horizontally has very little [23:32] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/969154 [23:32] Launchpad bug 969154 in xorg-server (Ubuntu) "Unable to set 1920x1080 resolution in Ubuntu 12.04 Beta2 as a VMWare Workstation 8 guest" [Low,Confirmed] [23:32] Hey, does anyone have a good xorg configuration for an Apple Magic Trackpad? === viv`d is now known as vivid [23:35] Mr-E: Old but might still work: http://askubuntu.com/questions/5907/apple-magic-trackpad-multitouch-configuration [23:36] anyway to update from 10.10 to 13.04? [23:36] 10.10 reposatory is 404, so cant even go to 11.04 [23:36] or 12 [23:36] a1fa: 10.10 -> 11.04 -> 11.10 -> 12.04 -> 12.10 -> 13.04 [23:37] !eol | a1fa [23:37] a1fa: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades [23:37] it won't let me go to 11.04 [23:37] you'd be better off installing fresh [23:37] I'm actually looking at that, along with a bunch of links from google. I'm really just after someone's personal configuration. [23:37] a1fa: One release at a time, using do-release-upgrade till you get there.
