[00:00] good evening my fellow poobuntu users. [00:00] ~*fartz*~ [00:02] do i really need to know ip tables to set up squid on ubuntu? [00:02] say, I want to restrict access to a proxy based on an ip range. [00:03] say the proxy is located at pair.com's data center and some joe schome who is my friend with time warner cable wants to use the proxy but I don't want anyone else to [00:03] i guess password protect would be the way [00:06] guess what I want is a public proxy (anyone can try to access it but needs a password) [00:11] f# [00:11] i have a problem [00:12] i cant access my flashdrive ubuntu doesnt recognize it [00:12] are there any commands i can use in terminal [00:12] to access my flashdrive folder === BadLarry is now known as BadLarry_ === krabador is now known as krabador|Doom3 [00:13] problems: Use [ sudo parted -l ] to figure out what it is...

[00:20] yeah [00:21] I actually have a problem but Im probably better off fixing it myself [00:21] problems: seems like it's not formatted [00:21] how do i format it from linux [00:21] terminal [00:22] it will delete anything you have on it [00:22] yeah thats fine [00:22] what filesystem do you want it to be? [00:22] filesystem? sorry im so completely retarded with computers its not even funny [00:23] ext4, fat32, ntfs [00:23] i guess fat32 [00:23] but no clue [00:23] btw thanks for helping out [00:23] ext4 is the default filesystem for ubuntu, fat32 was on windows 98, ntfs is on windows now [00:23] ntfs [00:24] do you not have gui? [00:25] i do but heres the thing [00:25] i have a virus on windows [00:25] CaptainShiner: I use Remmina for RDP it has a GUI and is doing its Job well, except if you have to input a RSA code. rdesktop is doing a great Job but it only has a CLI so if you dont need any RSA auth or something I would still prefere remmina. [00:25] so I use ubuntu now on this computer to download a virus remover that would load with windows [00:25] -mfloat-abi=softfp is for ARM ISA , what is its X86 counterpart? [00:25] so i need it for windows [00:25] problems: well you should be able to use graphics with ubuntu, its easier to format with gparted [00:26] okay but there is no mentioning of the usb on graphics [00:26] atleast where should I look [00:26] open up gparted with this command - "gksudo gparted" === g_byers is now known as gbyers[Away] [00:27] then there should be a drop down box on the upper right hand side of the program, select /dev/sdf [00:27] and finally you can create a partition, and format it [00:27] i get this [00:27] http://pastebin.com/csHusg4C [00:27] thats fine, as long as it opens [00:28] okay [00:28] what scheme [00:28] should I use [00:28] dont partion probobly === Gugster is now known as Guga_ [00:29] problems: i'm not sure what you mean [00:32] my computer fell off [00:32] *froze [00:33] ben [00:33] what was that command again [00:33] gskudo gparted?

[00:50] hmm, i think it should be there [00:50] is anybody here [00:50] phillyj: i'm not seeing it [00:50] i have a problem [00:50] somsip: Hmm, too bad, no 16TiB files :( [00:50] somsip, it's actually limited to 32 bit unless you are running the very latest upstream source and enable the 64bit experimental feature... without that its limited to 16 TiB fs size [00:50] gskudo gparted [00:50] when i enter that [00:50] i dont get a response [00:50] other72: are you on the new Unity interface?

I was answering ThePendulum [00:50] phillyj: 12.04 and whatever comes with it [00:51] ok [00:51] hold on [00:51] phillyj: thanks [00:51] psusi: sorry - a bit harsh maybe, but YKWIM I hope :) [00:51] somsip, I know... I was pointing out the error in your answer ;) [00:52] I just installed the mini iso of Ubuntu and somehow I get Ubuntu studio [00:52] lol [00:52] What should I uninstall to get rid of that? [00:52] ThePendulum: Did you select ubuntustudio-desktop by accident? [00:52] other72: can you go to system > preferences > appearence? [00:52] ThePendulum: remove ubuntustudio-desktop and install ubuntu-desktop [00:53] phillyj: i'm there now [00:53] SonikkuAmerica: Ubuntu Desktop is already installed. Not sure why studio came with it. [00:53] other72: customize themes [00:53] the "mini iso" is often misunderstood.. it's really the netinst image... downloads everything instead of having it on the install cd. the "mini" refers to the size of the image, not the install [00:53] phillyj: there's no such option for me [00:53] ThePendulum: Wait... it says ubuntustudio-desktop is installed? [00:54] !netinstall [00:54] Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install?

[00:55] other72: i think i got something fo you [00:55] SonikkuAmerica: Pretty sure it's lightdm [00:55] CavalierPrime: open in a new tab for now... thanks [00:55] ThePendulum: Both are lightdm; lightdm-gtk-greeter is the strip with the centered (usually black in Xubuntu) box [00:55] np [00:56] phillyj: something good? [00:56] SonikkuAmerica: I get the box, not the pretty one. [00:56] other72: go here: http://www.noobslab.com/2012/04/important-things-to-do-after-install_26.html [00:56] other72: follow step 9 [00:56] phillyj: let me see [00:57] ThePendulum: First step is to [ sudo apt-get remove lightdm-gtk-greeter ] from a terminal. [00:57] phillyj: great! that's basically the same thing as CavalierPrime mentioned [00:57] thanks [00:57] lol [00:59] ThePendulum: You may then have to run [ sudo dpkg-reconfigure unity-greeter ] when you're done with that. [01:00] phillyj: CavalierPrime: done! thanks! [01:00] SonikkuAmerica: And apt-get remove/purge ubuntustudio-desktop I guess? [01:00] no probs [01:00] ThePendulum: Well yeah, but that doesn't do much of anything. [01:01] ThePendulum: Remember Linux metapackages != Solaris incorporations. === cjbirk_ is now known as cjbirk [01:02] :P [01:02] ThePendulum: The diff being that Solaris incorporations pull everything out when uninstalled. === AJ_Z0- is now known as AJ_Z0 === tonsofpc1 is now known as tonsofpcs === Blueshark is now known as BlueShark === histo_ is now known as histo === DouglasKAway is now known as DouglasK [01:23] I'm trying to compile a simple 32 bit .so on 12.04 64bit, however no matter what I do with the makefile I keep getting "cannot find -lstdc++" from the linker.

[01:38] SonikkuAmerica: correct [01:38] SonikkuAmerica: 1.6.0 apparently [01:38] Then what's the problem? Unity should just start up... what version of Ubuntu is this? [01:38] Oh, duh, 13.04 [01:39] hailwood: Do you have all the latest updates?

[01:48] James_Epp: yes, not finding any support on their forums...go figure. [01:49] TheUsD: Seeing as how you paid for the product and (I imagine) it is closed-source, I would suggest you get in contact with their support line. [01:49] SonikkuAmerica: pretty sure theres some sort of linux malware at play here. i specifically avoid ever installing anything that depends on kde. and now suddenly even after installing 110 updates - of which like 78 were kde related - now I have 9 *more* updates pending including "Get Hot New Stuff" v2 Library for the KDE Platform [01:49] James_Epp: it may not be a wing ftp issue but rather just standard permissions issue that I am not seeing. [01:50] TheUSD: I have not used the program, nor am I good with linux perms, so perhaps I should not offer any more :S.

[01:51] Anyone good with perms when it comes to windows box's modifying ubuntu shared drives? [01:52] TheUsD: I ask: Why do you wish to do this from within Windows? [01:53] SonikkuAmerica: yeah if it were up to me I'd ditch gnome too. XFCE and/or LXDE are good enough for me. But sooner or later I install something that depends on a little bit of this or a little bit of that. With GNOME it seems hard to avoid. So instead I just make a point of ignoring anything and everything related to KDE [01:53] stimoceiver: XFCE would be perfect for you then. Lots of GNOME stuff in there.

I want to install Ubuntu on my new laptop, but i'm terrified that it wont work [01:59] Hi all.got problem with grub.can anybody help me out? [01:59] SonikkuAmerica: I guess in a very basic and dry way of asking my question is, If I have a program installed on a win box and that win box has access to a shared drive on ubuntu. What permissions does the windows program use? Does it use the permissions from the login info that I input when installing the network drive, or permissions from inside the program (because it has its own users and passes) [02:01] TheUsD: Well, to put it rather bluntly but in a way that's impossible to not understand, NTFS (the Windows file system) != ext4 (what Ubuntu uses). [02:01] SonikkuAmerica: can you run that by me again? lol. [02:01] Anybody can help me with GRUB problem? [02:02] TheUsD: The Windows and Ubuntu file systems are 2 totally different ballgames. [02:03] TheUsD: you question is actually about permissions across the network? [02:03] TheUsD: hence "shared drive" [02:03] SonikkuAmerica: but heres the kicker. If I go into the drive via explorer, I can modify the raid1 on the ubuntu drive. However, I cannot modified the shared drive within the windows program. [02:04] No one help? [02:04] TheUsD: I think you really need to clarify what you mean by : "windows program", "shared drive", "box" [02:05] !grub2 | perr have a read [02:05] perr have a read: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 [02:05] TheUsD: "windows program" << is it : a) a windows program running under wine on your ubuntu installation? b) a windows program running on a windows OS ? [02:06] TheUsD: as you can see, being vauge and expecting everyone else to understand what you mean only results in running around in circles with confusion [02:07] TheUsD: When someone says "Shared Drive" i take that to mean "A drive on one machine exposed via Samba to the local network to other machines on that same local network" [02:07] airtonix: ok, I have Wing FTP as the program. Inside wing ftp is users with their own names and passes. Since the windows box's (where wing FTP is installed) HDD's are becoming full, I am moving the user's in Wing FTP default folders to the ubuntu raid1 (that is the network drive). As I can modify the ubuntu drive on the windows OS in explorer, but I cannot modify the shared drive inside wing FTP via a user account. [02:08] airtonix: did that make more sense or make it a little more clear? [02:09] Sorry if I'm not being clear, its kinda a cluster mess and doing the best I can :p [02:10] TheUsD: yes, so you're going to haeve to look at a few things: the way permissions are handled on your linux machines file system (usually ext4, but could be anything), the way your ftp server software on your linux machine handles permissions [02:10] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PPTPServer How do you setup a VPN without proxying internet threw the server. I just want a client LAN.. [02:11] airtonix: their is no FTP server on the linux machine. Its using Samba to share its raid1 to the windows machine that has the FTP server. Again, sorry if I didn't make that clear the first time. [02:11] there is not FTP server*** [02:11] ugh...There is no FTP server**** [02:11] TheUsD: do you know if it's samba3 or samba4 ? [02:12] airtonix: No clue, I'm guessing the newest one because it was recently installed. [02:13] MrDyne: Just a guess - You should be able to just skip the parts about "Ip Forwarding" "remote dns" and the iptables "post routing" and be find here maybe. [02:13] * efkt checks channel guidelinse for guessing xD [02:14] TheUsD: you can't assume that. you're using samba3 if you have /etc/init.d/smbd, if when setting up samba you were asked about kerberos and so forth then you're using samba4. Samba 4 is a drastic change in how linux handles windows networking. samba 4 allows a linux machine to become a windows 2000 AD controller. which is significantly more advanced than what samba3 can do. [02:14] airtonix: ok, by that information it is a samba3 [02:16] TheUsD: so i'm reading back through your comments, and you say you can modify the ubuntu's shared drive raid properties through samba from your windows box using windows explorer? [02:16] TheUsD: I'm a little skeptical about that. I wasn't even aware that was possible. [02:17] airtonix: yes. If I was to go into computer>network drive> I can add/remove folders, delete and edit files. [02:17] * tgm4883 wonders how those are "raid properties" [02:17] airtonix: not internet explorer, windows explorer. [02:18] TheUsD: ok, those aren't raid properties. that's simple folder management. [02:18] how can I change how many workspaces there are? [02:18] does anyone know if there is a monodevelop 4.08 package for ubuntu/debian somewhere? i can't find any [02:19] TheUsD: for now investigate how to properly deal with permissions on the filesystem (ext4 if it's a default ubuntu install) and then investigate how to properly setup user permissions on samba3. the ubuntu help site should be a nice starting point. [02:19] airtonix: ok, I thought maybe since the network drive on the samba/linux was in raid1 it might make a difference. [02:19] I'd like to have only 3 workspaces instead of 4, is it possible? [02:19] Hey, I installed unity on Gentoo and there is only one issue: Instead of displaying the time in the upper right, it just says "Time". I recompiled 'indicator-datetime' package. Any other ideas? [02:20] sam113101: yes, you'd have to fire up dconf and edit some properties. [02:20] airtonix: I have, I can change who is the owner of the drive and whatnot in linux/samba. Thats how I was able to change it from "root" to the user I log into the ubuntu machine. [02:21] airtonix: I use that same login info to tell the windows machine to log into the drive on the linux box. [02:21] sam113101: the compiz configuration manager will allow you change the number of workspaces [02:21] airtonix: is that what you meant? [02:21] TheUsD: by the way, it's not really a drive. it's a folder on a drive being shared through samba. its nice how windows promotes incorrect information. [02:22] Hi um, I am unable to use Wget in Ubuntu Server 13.04. I receive "command not found" [02:22] TheUsD: but yes, modifying owner and group is one half of that operation, there is also permission bits which dictate what the user and group can do with the file/folder [02:23] Seathre, is the wget package installed? [02:23] Anyone here have a macbook pro set up with a bluetooth keyboard on Ubuntu 13.04? If so, how did you get it to work? Does the bluetooth peripheral work after a restart? Or do you have to re-configure on every boot up? [02:23] airtonix: the raid1 is separate from my linux installation. That is on another HDD in the linux box. IE: I installed linux on a 250gb HDD and put two 2tb in a raid1 [02:23] tgm4883, I figured it came standard, it is a fresh install. In addition, I'm asked for the Install CD every time I try to use apt-get for whatever reason. [02:23] TheUsD: ok, so you shared the root of that raid setup as a samba share? [02:24] Tex_Nick: where is it in the settings? [02:24] Seathre, I would think so as well. It sounds like you installed somehow odd [02:24] sam113101: hold on let me look [02:25] tgm4883, it could be, I've been having a heck of a time with this PowerEdge 2950. [02:25] airtonix: yes, I installed the GUI for samba, added the path /mnt/2tb1 (the raid1 is called 2tb1) and changed the ownership from "root" to the user info I log into the linux machine with. [02:26] Tex_Nick: ok got it [02:26] thanks [02:26] sam113101: it's in general options / desktop size [02:27] if i have a separate partition for my /home dir on an a different distro, how easy it is for me to install ubuntu and use that existing /home partition? [02:27] sam113101: great that you found it ;-) === enchilad1 is now known as enchilado === Gues_____ is now known as Guest16618 [02:28] TheUsD: ah ok. personally I would have created something like /mnt/2tb1/Users, and then each users folder under that is owned by the relevant user . You are going to be better off using something like putty on your windows machine to manage the linux filesystem rather than trying to take shortcuts with a limited ftp gui. [02:29] what does the "number of desktops" option do? isn't it determined by "horizontal virtual size" and "vertical virtual size"? [02:29] TheUsD: It seems you have a long road ahead of you to fully understand best practices on using linux as a system administrator. [02:30] airtonix: so you are saying for each user I create in the WING FTP program, create a user in the samba with the same username and pass as wing FTP? [02:31] airtonix: yes, I have only been a ubuntu user for roughly a week and a half. Its purpose wasn't for what I am currently using it for but things progressed faster than I expected and need to do something as a quick patch until I can build a SAS box for the FTP program. [02:31] TheUsD: i think so, I'm not sure how WingFTP works. Personally I would remove the windows machine from the equation and install Zentyal on the Linux box then manage the users and groups on that. [02:32] airtonix: I tried Zentyal but for the life of me could not get that thing running properly. [02:32] TheUsD: I mean I get that you want to avoid the commandline as much as possible. So do I on a home server , which is why I run zentyal 3 on my home server. [02:32] sam113101: just change the horizontal size to 3 ... i can't remember what vertical size does ... i try to not use compiz settings too much ... it can totally bork the system ;-) [02:32] airtonix: and excuse me, I did not mean SAS box, I meant DAS box, (I just need SAS cards, lol duh) [02:33] TheUsD: is your end goal, just simple user shares (over samba) protected by passwords? [02:34] TheUsD: where the user shares are mounted on your raid drive? [02:35] airtonix: I found this link and going to try it out and see what magic it does. No, my end goal is to be on a DAS box, lol. My end goal with my current issue would be to make the users in WING FTP have their default folders on the raid1 over a network drive. [02:35] airtonix: http://www.wftpserver.com/bbs/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=30 [02:36] airtonix: in my mind, I would think/thought that when users log into the FTP program and their default folder is on another machine (network drive) it would use the permissions of the windows user that has access to the shared drive. [02:37] TheUsD: it could just be using the username/password of the wingftp service. [02:37] TheUsD: honestly i'm not sure. last time i used windows was about 7 years ago [02:38] TheUsD: what was it about zentyal you couldn't get working? [02:39] TheUsD: btw I never use their cdrom. I install it ontop of ubuntu server via their ppa [02:39] airtonix: lol everything. I don't know if I just didn't put enough effort into it or if I just don't have the proper knowledge to use it. [02:41] airtonix: Fixed it. It was a matter of that link. From what I gathered, it was using a local system account rather than the user account I was logged into like it stated. [02:42] airtonix: changing the user info in the server to the current user account on the windows machine fixed the issue. Outstanding! [02:42] TheUsD: good stuff. However I would highly recommend you try and persist with zentyal 3. [02:43] airtonix: thank you for your time and I will continue to try Zentyal. One of the main features that caught my eye and which why I wanted Ubuntu server was to make an email server instead of paying Godaddy.com $$ to have more emails for my domain. [02:44] TheUsD: oh no. from experience. dont ever ever ever try to run your own email server. just let google handle that for you. I tried it. never again. [02:45] TheUsD: but don't let me stop you. you'll need to experience the pain yourself to understand why google apps is worth every cent. === neyder_ is now known as neyder [02:45] TheUsD: what volume of emails are you looking at? [02:51] Hey, I installed unity on Gentoo and there is only one issue: Instead of displaying the time in the upper right, it just says "Time". I recompiled 'indicator-datetime' package.

If I have a dial-out modem on my computer, would it be possible, in theory, to use it to extract caller-ID data from my home phone line? [03:05] TheUsD: that's not a lot. If you've got a free GoogleApp account (no more free signups availble) just go with that. I'm not sure what else to suggest for low volumes like this though. Remailers like mailgun are for 1000s per day. PostmarkApp is priced per email and their free intro offer should keep you going for a while [03:05] somisip: thank you for that information, I will look into that. :) [03:06] TheUsD: np [03:06] zipper: for incomming calls i assume?

[03:10] i removed some old kernels and kept the most recent one in my ubuntu, but after that i got thrown into busybox on boot... how can i reinstall all the kernel dependencies just to make sure that everything is alright? [03:11] UBUNTU SUCKS!.. i just had to say it to somebody, because that's how stress i'm because of it.. [03:12] i just don't know anymore if it was the kernel headers fault, or initramfs... [03:12] cfenix: lol... chill out dude [03:13] what's the solution to this bug? https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/29984 [03:13] JonathanLima, Did you update-grub after removing kernels? [03:13] i really liked it, before the version 11.04 [03:13] hey all, i recently got this 4tb harddrive... i split it into two ntfs partitions. When I look at the disk in the disk utility i get this warning right under the volumes section, http://i.imgur.com/GKL5PHJ.png [03:13] also, it's listed as PATA but it is definitely plugged in through SATA [03:14] can nayone help me try to fix that warning? [03:14] wilee-nilee: nope... i'm in a liveusb boot and i got chroot on my installation... should i run it from chroot or the live usb? [03:14] how do i list free vs taken hard drive space via terminal [03:14] in GB's [03:14] new linux kernel are less compatible than ever... people are coming here to get help about issues that have something to do with the kernel... issues that WHEREN'T THERE on earlier versions [03:15] JonathanLima, Only the chroot will wrte the install [03:15] skuft: Sorry for the delayed reply. Yes, it's for incoming calls [03:15] skuft: df -h [03:15] *write [03:15] and it really pss me off that the only answer i can get(like a lot of people) is "buy a new computer" [03:15] zipper: i don't think you really could, at least not very easily at all [03:16] anyone know is there is a CCleaer-esque program for linux [03:16] wilee-nilee: i see... let me try it... thanks =] [03:16] Well I was anticipating having to write my own program, so difficulty isn't an issue. [03:16] wilee-nilee: i've got update-grub and update-grub2... how can i know which should i run? [03:17] wilee-nilee: it's ubuntu 13.04, btw [03:17] JonathanLima, In ubuntu it is update-grub [03:17] THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR LISTENING, i really need it to let it out... now i'm going back to keep on resolving issues from this system (that use to be cool) [03:17] in a chroot sudo otherwise [03:17] I just was wondering if there were any hardware constraints that might make it impossible [03:18] wilee-nilee: kay... thanks =] [03:18] JonathanLima: if you check, i believe you'll find update-grub2 is just a symlink to update-grub [03:18] zipper: there might be. depends on the dial out modem i think [03:19] any suggestions on why i can reach my samba shares via ip address in windows 7, but i can't see it listed in the workgroup? [03:19] samba can browse the win7 machine just fine [03:20] Ah... Well, I wouldn't know about that. I'm running LM14 and so far as I can tell, there's no kernel support for modems. It doesn't even recognize that there is a modem on the board [03:21] zipper: there are so many obstacles you'd need to overcome I don't see the time being worth it iMO [03:22] fml - Konversation connects to my ZNC on my desktop but not on my laptop. WTF [03:22] skuft: While it would serve a very limited practical purpose, I mainly intend to do it as a learning experience. Perhaps I should speak with some kernel devs to get their input? [03:22] can anyone help me with my partition realignment? [03:23] dandaman: What sort of issue are you having? [03:23] i recently got this 4tb harddrive... i split it into two ntfs partitions. When I look at the disk in the disk utility i get this warning right under the volumes section, http://i.imgur.com/GKL5PHJ.png [03:23] zipper: Yeah, that would be the best place to start. Some of them might even have some code snipits you can use [03:23] histo: when i click on the 2nd partition it says it's misaligned by 3584 bytes [03:24] dandaman: is there any data on the drive? [03:24] histo: nope, freshly partitions [03:24] Is there a good IRC room for that, or would I need to go somewhere else?

[03:26] Tex_Nick: I appreciate the feedback; there's alot of dead-ends out there [03:26] i think i have an initramfs problem... busybox says it could not find the driver by uuid, but i already checked and uuid is fine... maybe i should re-install/check initramfs? any tips on how to do that?

[03:27] dandaman: let me look something up real quick for you [03:27] histo: just did it with disk utility, first partition is misaligned by 3072 bytes, let me use gparted [03:28] err gdisk [03:28] Guys, i need your help( [03:28] dandaman: yeah mbr only allows up to 2tb with 512 sector size. You need to use gparted, parted, or gdisk to partition it and create a GUID partition table or GPT [03:28] batischev: What's your problem? [03:29] histo: kk, lemme do this in gparted and get back to you [03:30] histo: no guid option on gparted, im using gpt like you suggested, will that work with windows? [03:30] question. is there a way to list *all* scripts of a certain language on any given install of ubuntu? [03:31] could someone please suggest a gui-based grub editor? [03:31] zephyr28: gedit. [03:31] ntzrmtthihu777, thanks. [03:32] ntzrmtthihu777, oh, I'm dumb. Nevermind the thanks [03:32] histo: did GPT partition, made 2 primary ntfs partitions of the same size, first partition is misaligned by 3072 and 2nd one is misaligned by 3584... [03:32] i cant win :( === Lajjla is now known as Quadrupescence [03:32] Hi [03:32] zephyr28: sorry, but thats about it. grub isnt so hard to deal with, what are you trying to achieve? [03:32] I need the GCC objective C support. How do I download and install it? [03:32] zipper : you might also try the irc.hak5.org irc server ... i think the channel is #hak5 ... there's a guy with hak5 named Darrin Kitchen (sp ?) who does a lot of that type stuff [03:33] ntzrmtthihu777, I know it's not.. .was just looking for a quick fix. I just want to have grub rescan my partitions as I just installed Windows [03:33] zephyr28: ah, I gotcha then :P [03:33] !boot-repair | zephyr28 [03:33] dang [03:33] I think I know someone who knows him personally [03:33] Small world [03:33] cool ;-) [03:34] zephyr28: the boot-repair package will fix you right up. ppa:yannubuntu/boot-repair, I think it is. [03:34] ntzrmtthihu777, may be slightly more complicated than the usual. I have Windows on a completely separate HDD and both are set as boot devices. [03:35] zephyr28: boot-repair can handle that. I used to have a laptop with twin 500gb hdd in it, win on one and ubuntu on the other. trust me, this is you're best bet for an easy fix [03:35] ntzrmtthihu777, I'll take a look. NOW thanks again! :) [03:35] zephyr28: you'll need a live cd/usb of ubuntu https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair [03:36] hmm... I have a live disc, but isn't it possible to alter the grub config from the booted system? [03:36] this, I think, is something ubuntu should include by default. that and apt-fast [03:37] zephyr28: come again? I fail to see the question here. [03:37] ntzrmtthihu777, thought it was possible to edit grub configuration without needing to boot into a live cd. [03:38] well, you can if you can boot the os in question, but in general if you need to repair grub your already up the creek without a paddle [03:38] zephyr28: you are correct [03:38] ntzrmtthihu777, nah, grub works just fine... it just doesn't see Windows, that's all. [03:38] Hi everyone, I need to install Windows on a 2nd hard drive, not replace ubuntu(it has it's own hard drive) on the same computer (obviously already running ubuntu), how would i go about it? [03:38] zephyr28: ah. then yeah, no live-cd needed here. [03:39] cfenix, There is a something other option in the install, that is the manual install. [03:39] ntzrmtthihu777, I have two bootable HDDs. I can choose which OS to boot by changing the boot order in BIOS, on each reboot, but using grub would be much better. === brandon is now known as Guest51584 [03:39] and in that case maybe a sudo update-grub would do the trick, or not. maybe the windows hdd needs ta be mounted. [03:40] zephyr28: yes, I got that. you want the ubuntu hdd to be default, but to open with grub, yeah? [03:40] correct [03:40] zephyr28, If a update-grub does not add it use the bootrepair app and run the bootinfo summary and post a link to it for details on your setup. [03:40] I find dual-booting to be excessive for my (minimal) usage of windows, a vm does the trick much better for me :P [03:40] ntzrmtthihu777, haha the update-grub did it. [03:41] ntzrmtthihu777, that was quick [03:41] wilee-nilee: i'm sorry i don't understand what you tried to say, i have experience installing linux along windows after windows, but not the other way around [03:41] dandaman: what are you creating the partitions with? [03:41] dandaman: remove the partitions write the changes... Then open gdisk or whatever and create new partitions [03:41] zephyr28: see, its always better to give details about what you want to do rather than asking "what's the best..." yada yada === jacob_ is now known as Guest10042 [03:42] cfenix, if you're installing Windows on a separate HDD, just install it normally. Then boot into Ubuntu (may need to change the boot drive in your BIOS) and run sudo update-grub. [03:42] cfenix, Sure, you can manually install, that puts the windows to the correct HD, I just told you what its name was when you fire up the installer. [03:42] cfenix, this is literally the exact same scenario I came here to get resolved and it was :) [03:43] I joined because this is the most populated room [03:43] Does that make me weird? [03:43] and this is another reason windows fails. no control over what you're installing easily. [03:43] cfenix, Both windows and linux have auto installs and manual installs for exacting placement if needed. [03:44] ntzrmtthihu777, I had a HELL of a time just getting Windows TO install because I was attempting to install on a device that wasn't the only bootable one. Such a headache. [03:44] ntzrmtthihu777, Not true all windows installs have manula options. [03:44] manual* [03:44] zephyr28: you woulda likely been better off pulling out the ubuntu hdd, installing windows and then replacing the ubuntu hdd [03:45] so, i need to disconnect my linux HD and install windows, then connect it back again as the primary hd and the grub should automatically set the boot option for me to choose the OS to be load? [03:45] wilee-nilee: but can you honestly say that the windows (say version 7) manual install is up to par with the ubuntu one? [03:45] cfenix, You can do that yes. [03:45] cfenix: you don't *have* to do that, but it *will* work [03:45] ntzrmtthihu777, that's exactly what I had to do. That's the ONLY solution. [03:46] ntzrmtthihu777, Same exact thing you want the OS in a specific place, all ubuntu allows is where to put grub options. [03:46] not *only* but by far simplest in my experience. [03:46] wilee-nilee: i thing i'm just worry of the grub getting mess up [03:46] Is ubuntu only used by programmers and the likes? [03:46] cfenix, as long as you have a live cd available, there's nothing grub-related you can't fix. [03:46] wilee-nilee: heh, not so. I personally cant stand the 100mb system-reserved partition. I should like to give it at least 512mb/1gb [03:47] Felix___: nah, all types use it. [03:47] I tried using it but I feel like im exploring mars. Maybe im stupid? [03:47] Felix___, and the like, yes. Like businessmen, gamers, womans, boyses, bloggers, et ceteratas [03:47] ntzrmtthihu777, If you make a ntfs first with gparted and a boot flag, then manually install with windowqs to that partition, there is no boot partition. [03:47] zephyr28: well, that's true, but i would like to avoid any issue if possible, make it run since the beginning [03:47] Lol sorry I didn't mean it like that [03:47] Felix___, definitely not stupid. It's kind of a different beast. I recommend Xubuntu... it's interface isn't nearly as crazy intimidatingly new as Ubuntu. [03:48] Felix___: nah, just keep at it. its easy if you actually want to learn it. [03:48] zephyr28: heh, i use xubuntu :D [03:48] ntzrmtthihu777, me too, obviously. Can't beat it for its simplicity. [03:48] ntzrmtthihu777,Heh, I don't like boot partitions myself. [03:48] Doing this makes me want to learn c++ which eventually makes me want to learn how to hack [03:49] fisix: are you there? [03:49] my desktop: http://imagebin.org/260274 [03:49] Felix___, I've started learning Java as my first non-Visual language. I've read two books but not quite sure what to create other than my grand plans that I'm in no way prepared for lol === jeff_liu_cn is now known as jie_liu [03:49] fisix ?

[03:49] Felix___: I'm just a geek, not a programmer and for me it's an awesome experience [03:50] ntzrmtthihu777, yeeeeaaahhhhh.... I spend most of my time in NetBeans or xbmc... never see my desktop lol [03:50] How do you guys quote names? >< [03:50] Felix___: tab completion [03:50] try this: typ ntzr then hit tab [03:50] Hack/Hacker, is someone that is dedicated to a field and he masters it [03:50] cfenix: so martial artists hack reality? :P [03:51] Well im using colloquy iphone so >< [03:51] I don't think a tab button exist here [03:51] Felix___: then I don't know what to tell you, lol. [03:51] Felix___, using an iPhone automatically disqualifies you from the "geek" definition. [03:51] hahaha that's funny [03:51] well [03:51] that hurts [03:51] :P [03:51] zephyr28: now now, be nice. I personally can't stand iAnything, but its his to use [03:51] :D [03:52] ntzrmtthihu777, not really... it's Apple's for him to use. That's my point :P [03:52] well there's that [03:52] Felix___: get an android, you'll like it. able to increase storage without buying a new phone, just get a bigger sd card :D [03:52] I've only been trying to learn using command on apple but ya..kind of limited [03:53] zephyr28: true that, lol. gotta love their EULA, yeah? not even MS is that bad [03:53] Felix___, seriously, though... linux is a lot to learn but if you're a tinkerer and like to control literally EVERYTHING, there's nothing better. If you like linux, Android is the best phone to have (since it IS linux) [03:53] ugh hate android. Anything Samsung and that huge a$$ screen. Feels like carrying a brick made from paper [03:53] then don't get a samsung android, lol. [03:53] Felix___, there are a LOT of screen sizes to choose from. And not just Samsung makes Android. [03:54] Felix___, another benefit of Android. You don't HAVE to have the same phone/features as everyone else :) [03:54] what do you recommend? [03:54] Felix___, Well....... I have the SAmsung SII and love it lol [03:54] idk, I'm too poor to afford a smartphone XD [03:54] It seems like Samsung dominates that category with everything android [03:54] ok so one more time (i'm sorry if i sound annoying) i'm afraid of ending up having to get into the bios to manually select the primary hd to boot to the desire OS, what would be the best way to go about installing windows? [03:54] or a dumbphone, for that matter. [03:55] cfenix: two hdd;s? [03:55] yes [03:55] Of course you can afford a phone 777 [03:55] You're like.. Geek genius [03:55] cfenix, install windows normally. You MIGHT have to use BIOS just once to boot into Ubuntu. But once you are there, you can update grub so you'll never have to use BIOS again. [03:55] cfenix: remove the ubuntu hdd. install windows to the other one. replace ubuntu hdd. make sure bios points to ubuntu hdd. run sudu update-grub from inside ubuntu-hdd. done. === fishman_ is now known as centaur5 [03:56] THANKS EVERYONE [03:56] Felix___: dude, I make $25/wk, lol. I work for a homeless shelter in corpus christi [03:57] What.

[04:13] not I, daya [04:14] broken_stack ok [04:18] Hello all. I have an Ubuntu 12.04.2 server that /var/log/messages is always now empty on. I have verified owner/group as syslog/adm. I also confirmed rsyslog is running. [04:18] ok, I've answered enough methinks :P, could someone assist me? I have installed xubuntu 12.04 on a Toshiba Satellite A10, used the minimal install iso. It connected to the wifi network fine during installation, but in-install it will not. [04:20] in-install? [04:20] rellis: no longer used. /var/log/syslog now [04:20] somsip: Sorry I misspoke, i meant /var/log/syslog is always empty. === sun is now known as Guest57445 [04:20] operating system stack what can i do? [04:21] ? [04:21] Also for whatever reason pgbouncer will not run and /var/log/postgres/pgbouncer.log is always empty.. [04:21] maybe because it uses syslog or something [04:21] rellis: can you pastebin an ls -la /var/log ? [04:21] sure, hang on [04:22] broken_stack: as in I'm booted into the system, not the live cd [04:22] somsip:my operating system is stacking what could i do?

[04:24] somsip: Yes, confirmed with "service status rsyslog" [04:25] ah, ok. did, but honestly I'm not sure which is the proper one, lol. its not quite obvious. it has a modem entry and an ethernet controller entry (but the wifi signal is eth1, so that may be it) [04:25] rellis: would it be safe to restart rsyslog? Not sure what it will accomplish, but... [04:25] somsip: I've already rebooted but yet it's fine. I took this machien out of rotation. [04:26] somsip: I restarted and tested using the logger command. Still broken. [04:26] i tried: logger -i -t TEST -p daemon.info "Test message" [04:27] rellis: is this any good? http://is.gd/AIVgBK [04:29] somsip: I'll give it a try right now. Thanks. [04:29] rellis: the source link was this. Maybe a blind alley http://is.gd/GoURg3 [04:31] somsip: I think in their case rsyslog was altogether refusing to start. Mine starts fine. Also I just tried that and repeated the logger test and got nothing in /var/log/syslog. [04:31] rellis: I'd suggest rsyslog is failing badly - you have no writes to auth.log kern.log or anything [04:31] indeed, it seems real hosed [04:31] rellis: do you really have unattended updates turned on? Was anything installed around the 26th May? [04:31] i have unattended security updates ONLY enabled [04:32] and yes there were but other systems have received the same updated and not failed [04:32] this machine is a member of a cluster, all of the machines were built using automated provisioning [04:32] rellis: Ah. These are such fun aren't they :-/ I saw the puppet log.. [04:33] hah, ya [04:33] rellis: are the apache logs being written ok? [04:34] ntzrmtthihu777: check to make sure the STA drivers arent installed in Software Updater -> additional Drivers. Also you might wanna try running lspci or lsusb from the live disk when it is working. just to be sure you are getting the same results [04:34] somsip: I just checked and yes apache logs seem okay. [04:34] Updated today [04:34] I think I might try a force uninstall/reinstall. [04:35] ntzrmtthihu777: if I haven't mentioned it, lsb_release -r is what you wanted earlier.

[05:59] Ben64: thats the first article i read and bash told me "unable to locate package lamp-server" [05:59] starkiller: #ubuntu-offtopic [06:00] Ben64: histo http://pastebin.com/bgHJPEdE (sources.list) [06:01] I use my university's mirrors [06:03] broken_stack: did you remember the "^"? === sangeet is now known as SangeetKhatri [06:07] broken_stack: ? [06:07] ? [06:07] broken_stack: did you remember the "^" in your command? [06:07] what ^ [06:07] broken_stack: sudo apt-get install lamp-server^ [06:08] hey can anyone help me? I am running lubuntu 13.04 and my laptop boots at 1024 x 768 while the default resolution is 1366 x 768 [06:08] and there is no way in settings to change the resolution [06:08] SangeetKhatri: Can you pastebin the output of "lspci | grep VGA"? [06:09] broken_stack: that's the only command you need to run to get a lamp server setup. Not sure what else you've done [06:09] OK [06:10] This is the output [06:10] 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 07) [06:10] removing everything, gonna restart and try that === AaaA_ is now known as AaaA [06:11] And also another thing is that my computer performs extremely slow this time. Even though it has a dual core with 4 gigs of RAM [06:12] i mean that problem has happened with me for the first time [06:12] found the problem. i should have been using apt-get purge to remove [06:12] and delete the apache2 folder in /etc/ [06:13] broken_stack: you shouldn't have to delete anything if you use purge on the right package (hint: dpkg -S /etc/apache2/apache2.conf) [06:15] @Jordan_U You got anything man?? [06:15] Hi again [06:15] Ubunutu 12.10 > Dell L502x > Nvidia 540M , I am new to linux . The system is not saving the brightness setting between each restarts [06:15] help [06:15] sbin1980: we meet again [06:16] hi , sorry for leaving , got a work [06:16] thanks for remembering [06:16] its cool, we all hace stuff to deal with from time to time. [06:16] Thanks :) [06:16] sbin1980: do you have the proprietary nvidia drivers installed? [06:17] I dont knw , how to check ? [06:17] it's a checkbox I think [06:17] I am using Ubuntu 13.04 (64 bit). I have performed a partial upgrade with "apt-get dist-upgrade". Many of the packages were removed during this. How can I restore my system. I am not getting even the login screen now. [06:17] if you don't know you likely do not. press alt+f2 and run jockey-gtk [06:18] it shows some result [06:19] does it show any proprietery drivers to be in use? [06:19] sudo mount -a [06:19] oops, wrong term :P [06:19] I run a Ubuntu Server 12.04 and my 1TB USB disk isn't detected at startup, I need to unplug and plug it again to have it detected [06:19] any idea? [06:19] no just jockey-gtk [06:20] sbin1980: can you get me a screenshot of the window? [06:20] Asharas: How are you trying to access the disk? [06:20] can snort be installed on dekstop? [06:20] my laptop is booting in low 1024 x 768 resolution which is way lower than my screen resolution can anyone help me. Please.. [06:20] that result window ? [06:20] Jordan_U: ls /dev | grep sd [06:20] SangeetKhatri: proprietery drivers installed? [06:20] can't mount it [06:21] Asharas: Does it show up in "lsusb"? [06:21] it doesn't appear in the list [06:21] nope [06:21] sbin1980: yeah, the window that openened when you ran jockey-gtk [06:21] whats the difference between ubiquity and debian installer, [06:21] Asharas: Do other USB devices (mouse/keyboard) work? [06:21] i don't know but it was working fine from about a month. Problem started happening when today i turned on the laptop [06:21] one sec [06:22] yeah, perfectly (but I'm using ssh right now) [06:22] sbin1980: I have a nifty bash script that imagebins a screenshot of your desktop, you want it? [06:22] http://i.imgur.com/BvnFpBh.jpg [06:22] uploaded to imgur [06:23] ah, forgot you were on unity. ok, click the top one. [06:23] daya: Among other things, Ubiquity is graphical and requires a full live environment, Debian installer uses a curses (pseudo graphical text based interface) and has a lot more options for what packages you want to install. [06:23] yeah Jordan_U , the keyboard works perfectly [06:23] nothing opens [06:23] kk, open a terminal and issue the same command. [06:24] I am using Ubuntu 13.04 (64 bit). I have performed a partial upgrade with "apt-get dist-upgrade". Many of the packages were removed during this. How can I restore my system. I am not getting even the login screen now. [06:24] program not installed [06:24] Asharas: Odd. Have you checked dmesg for any USB errors? [06:24] Jordan_U: no, wait === SomeoneWeird_ is now known as SomeoneWeird [06:25] saz1234: Were you trying to upgrade from a previous release of Ubuntu (12.10)? [06:25] sbin1980: ah crap, lol. I keep forgetting bout the differences in 12.04 vs 10. ok, open your software center [06:25] Jordan_U: No. I was upgrading after a week. [06:25] done [06:26] Jordan_U: nothing speacial, I have a few errors but happening on all ports [06:26] ok, I'm not sure where it is, but you should find an additional drivers in software center somewhere. its like in the preferences optiions, I think. [06:26] saz1234: Odd. "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop" should install everything included in a default install, assuming it completes successfully/ [06:27] please man.. can anyone help about my resolution problem? [06:27] i am stuck with 1024 x 768 resolution === wagle_ is now known as wagle [06:27] Jordan_U: But it wont restore the system. Packages like gnome-shell and firefox were also removed. There were 100s of them. [06:28] Is anyone ever actually active in #ubuntu-touch? [06:28] SangeetKhatri: likely need the restricted drivers for you system. [06:28] i think i have already downloaded them [06:28] around 2 weeks before [06:28] SangeetKhatri: change think into know and let me know the results. [06:28] Jordan_U: I googled and found that "dpkg-reconfigure -phigh -a" would fix it. But it is showing "ca-certificates are broken or not fully installed" [06:28] i installed ubuntu-restricted-extras on the first day of install [06:29] saz1234: Correct, it won't. [06:29] SangeetKhatri: http://bit.ly/13kxfzu [06:29] SangeetKhatri: nope, that's not drivers. [06:29] thats codecs and such. [06:29] cant find [06:29] saz1234: That command won't install any packages, so I don't see how it would fix your problem (at least in and of itself). [06:30] how do you set a locale in a shell (.sh) script? [06:31] sbin1980: check google for the answer, I honestly don't know off hand where its located at, aside from its in software center. I gave quantal a shot shortly after it came out, was dissapointed and went to pinguy, then to xubuntu 12.04 [06:31] Jordan_U: I think I have the list of packages removed from var/log/apt-history.log. I should do it manually. [06:31] zerai: LANG=whatever [06:31] Jordan_U: any other idea? [06:31] anyway , is there a way to upgrade to latest ubunut within this 12.10 , or do i haveto download the new version and isntall from USB/CD ? [06:31] alguém do brasil ? [06:32] sbin1980: honestly you would be better off reverting to 12.04, I find. and maybe switching your DE to xfce (xubuntu) [06:32] sbin1980: if you mean going to 13.04 and you are sure you want to do this, sudo do-release-upgrade [06:32] thanks [06:33] sbin1980: do a full update/upgrade first to make it a bit safer [06:33] zerai: so for instance, LANG=ja_JP.utf8 will set your locale to japan. (it would be a good idea to store your original locale before switching over to the other locale [06:33] ok.. thanks guys [06:34] zerai: so before doing LANG=ja_JP.utf8, do ORIG_LANG=$LANG, then at the end of the script run LANG=$ORIG_LANG to restore the original locale. [06:36] zerai: obviously use what you want in place of ja_JP.utf8, but thats my example as I had to use it in a PlayOnLinux script I wrote :P [06:37] a [06:37] Asharas: Please file a bug report. It would be interesting to know if it happens with Ubuntu 13.04 booted from a LiveUSB, another version of Ubuntu like 12.04, or a distribution which uses upstream systemd/udev like Fedora 17. [06:38] Jordan_U: yeah, more bug reports should be filed for sure. it really sucks when someone sits on a bug and fixes it themself without the world at large gaining the benefit [06:38] nick SangeetKhatri === sangeet is now known as SangeetKhatri [06:43] i need to install 12.04 on 15-20 servers, i was reading about MAAS. but not sure if that is the way to automate it rather than use the boot from cd option. [06:47] how come the LTS is the last version that has the 4670 drivers? [06:48] Jordan_U: you'll have to help me, I'm a noob [06:48] Hi === BigWig__ is now known as BigWig [06:49] Asharas: Unfortunately I don't have the time to walk you though filing a good bug report or further testing at the moment. [06:49] where do you think I should put kernel load parameters (to survive kernel updates) (memmap)? === Motoservo_ is now known as Motoservo [06:50] I am presented with sort of program, when I try to edit GRUB2 boot menu item, prior boot. [06:51] I backed up my /var/www and copied it to another ubuntu installation through usb ,but now when i access localhost but now my new installation can't access any file from folders inside /var/www [06:51] i am also unsure where to boot additional kernel parameters in that [06:51] firefox says it does n't have permission to view [06:51] Also I think my Ubuntu instalaltion is doing unwanted disk check or something, mollesting disks on boot, not allowing me to log in. [06:52] e.g. I am logging in, but it takes 15 minutes. while disks are active. [06:53] that machine/disks were not booted for some time, but at least I should have some control. [06:53] Jordan_U: I cannot install packages. Here is the output http://pastebin.com/bBH22huS [06:53] I am getting the same message in anything I start installing [06:54] Maybe it is important, that I maybe changed SAT port0 and port1 connections for those disks? (booting off from raid1 software, Btrfs ,12.04LTS) [06:55] nikolam: Using btrfs with Ubuntu 12.04 doesn't make sense, as you should be running at least the latest stable upstream kernel if you want to use btrfs. [06:56] oh no, you are true , it is 12.10 [06:56] I now remember I updated because of Btrfs migration, thanks for pointing that. [06:57] nikolam: btrfs is still "experimental" after all, so expect issues and *don't* expect much support for those btrfs issues if you're running an older kernel. You need to constantly keep up as newer kernels are released if you want to use btrfs, and to do that you should keep up with Ubuntu releases as well. [06:57] I can not check exact version ATM because disk is being mollested and I don't get bash prompt yet [06:58] jordan, I think Oracle and SUSE are shiping Btrfs in production servers. So yes, I expect it being supported in production. [06:58] Hello! I'm a new user. When I'm trying to update via Software updater, a message is shown "Requires installation of untrusted packages - 'This requires installing packages from unauthenticated sources." when I click the OK button, it doesn't start updating but closes. How to update? [06:59] thanks Jordan_U but I think it Is supported. And checking disks without being able to log in is general Ubuntu problem I suppose, [06:59] nikolam: Ubuntu isn't, and you can ask in #btrfs about keeping up with (at least) the latest upstream stable kernel if you don't believe me. Your expectations don't match reality. [06:59] firefox says it does n't have permission to view [06:59] I backed up my /var/www and copied it to another ubuntu installation through usb ,but now when i access localhost but now my new installation can't access any file from folders inside /var/www [07:00] Jordan_U, what fo you mean by "latest upstream kernel"? Btrfs is in-kernel file system in Ubuntu. [07:00] I am on 3.5.0-26 x86_64, that is from Ubuntu. I will update once I get network going [07:01] nikolam: Yes, but as it's still experimental and under heavy development bugs are being fixed constantly and developers (and non-developers) don't want to be debugging issues that have already been fixed. [07:02] Jordan_U, oh, so your point is to run latest and greates kernel. I understand that. [07:02] nikolam: You should currently be using 3.9, and you should switch to 3.10 when it goes final (if not switching to one of the RCs now) for btrfs supporg. [07:03] That is valid suggestion Jordan_U ;p I will surely update. [07:05] hi o/ [07:05] Hi [07:06] I need help with upgrading to Raring release of ubuntu [07:06] can do anyone know what is the package name of intel graphics so that i can search it in synaptic package manager [07:06] sometime ago I guess I upgraded to Raring release but still Ubuntu everytime on login says that 'new release available' [07:07] Partial upgrade removed almost everything from the system. How to restore it? [07:07] what can I do about that ? [07:07] I don't remember those release codenames after all these years, I suppose I am a 13.04/12.10 person ;p [07:07] saz1234: Do you use any ppas or other unofficial packages? [07:07] how to install flash plugin..? please help [07:07] Jordan_U: Yes I do. [07:08] saz1234, I use Btrfs and it is making a snapshot prior to changing/upgrading, so you can boot previous intact state. [07:08] guys i need to reinstall intel drivers in ubuntu can anyone tell me the package name of intel graphics driver so that i can search for it in synaptic package manager [07:08] nikolam, I mena I do: lsb_release -a and see in output 13.04 version [07:08] saz1234: They are probably what's causing this problem. Use ppa-purge to remove all of them (just removing the ppa's entry in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ is *not* enough). [07:08] but on login it always says that new version (13.04) available [07:08] nikolam: Now I am stuck so bad. What to do now/ [07:09] Jordan_U: Let me try this [07:09] saz1234, I jus suggest you backup your data and settings to external disk and do fresh install. [07:09] can someone help? trying to install ubuntu through virtual box [07:10] finally installed, it restarted to complete installation, "caught signal 15, shutting down..." it hasn't moved since [07:10] nikolam: That is the last option I would go to. Well it seems many of the users had this problem of partial upgrade. Is there no solution? [07:11] comradzilla, you need vbox addons, see also #vbox [07:11] jeezus christ really? [07:11] saz1234, I almost never managed to upgrade clean with no issues. Sometimes I did, sometimes it did not. [07:12] hi [07:12] hi [07:13] when doing "#apt-get update", I'm always getting output entires like this: Err http://ppa.launchpad.net precise/main amd64 Packages 404 Not Found ... I understand that those entires are not available anymore, but why does this keep changing on a half-year basis ... [07:13] nikolam: you are right, happens all the time with me. But this is the first time I cam across this partial upgrade thing [07:13] comradzilla, from my experience, ubuntu comes with some kind of vbox support, but it is actually best to remove that and install ones provided from vbox. Theck vbox docs for install. Also #vbox if stucked [07:13] how can I update apt.sources so everything will be nice and clean again ... without reinstalling whole system [07:13] think i found it, is this it? https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads [07:14] Jordan_U: ppa-purge is asking the name of the package repo to be purged. How can purge all of them? [07:14] evelyette, define "nice and clean". One can always save packages list so it can re-install same list of packages again. [07:15] comradzilla, .iso with addons should be included with vbox install. see #vbox [07:15] nikolam: so I don't get 404 not found and Ign .... [07:15] anyone runs a no X system with only tmux , whats the approx ram usage ? [07:15] nikolam: and "failed to fetch" [07:15] i did , no response yet [07:15] saz1234: I don't know. You might need to just look at the files in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ and purge each one by one. [07:16] Hello [07:17] hello [07:17] evelyette, if you changed package repositories yourself, see in message what source is n/a [07:17] nikolam: I didn't change them myself ...I'm just doing apt-get update .... and it doesn't work after a few montsh [07:18] apm1: It shouldn't take long to find out (you could do it in a VM). [07:18] evelyette, check ubuntu version, see form synaptic what are repositories you have installed. [07:18] Jordan_U, yeah but asking was quicker :p [07:19] My desktop has a strange issue (12.10). On startup it opens Chrome with two "about:blank" tabs. [07:19] apm1: You can use the server or mini install isos to get a minimal system, but note that neither of those installs a minimal system by default so pay attention to the options presented. [07:19] how to install flash plugin.,? [07:19] !flash | ghost_ [07:19] ghost_: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - See also !Restricted and !Gnash [07:19] evelyette, it could be local mirror for a country n/a or something, it all depends of your current settings. [07:20] nikolam: is there no tool to manage sources.list ? [07:20] without text editor [07:20] evelyette, setting "main server" in synaptic, targets main ubuntu servers in uk/island. [07:20] I checked startup applications (and unlocked the hidden ones in /etc/xdg/autostart/) but it's not there. [07:20] Something that would automatically fetch the new sources.list from some server and update existing entries would be great [07:20] evelyette, the update manager and synaptic let you do that [07:20] so #apt-get update ? [07:21] what would be the best route for dvd video production on an ubuntu desktop ? [07:21] Jordan_U: Didnt work. It is showing the same error. [07:21] sources target packages for current installed release, so they fetch what they need, use synaptis. [07:21] synapric [07:21] synaptic oh my. [07:22] hi [07:22] nikolam, typos happen friend :) [07:22] Jordan_U: I guess a fresh install is the only option [07:22] zfd, hi [07:22] nikolam got it working :) [07:22] yellabs-r2, using maybe ubuntustudio distro? [07:23] no , normal 12.04 lts === mis is now known as Guest29029 [07:24] yellabs-r2, then just research and add programs you need. there are also PPAs with additional software, etc. Listing of ubuntu studio provided apps could be a starting point. [07:24] ok, cool , thanks [07:25] alriiight, first time on ubuntu [07:25] :) [07:25] what are some must know tips? [07:25] comradzilla, help.ubuntu.com :P [07:25] So if an application is not under /etc/xdg/autostart/ but still autostarts where should I look? [07:25] thanks nikolam [07:26] comradzilla,if you don't have a physical firewall , then use gufw [07:26] i just wanna get the terminal up and running [07:26] EwoudCP, maybe user-started from .bashrc [07:27] and i want to install python so i can run a script [07:27] comradzilla, python is already installed [07:27] EwoudCP: ~/.config/autostart [07:27] comradzilla, and the terminal is there in the launcher [07:27] how do i use it? [07:27] comradzilla, click on its icon in the launcher [07:28] don't see it in the launcher [07:28] comradzilla, press the super key [07:28] and type "terminal" [07:29] wtf is the super key [07:29] windows key [07:29] or if you are on a mac keyboard its cmd [07:29] I don't see it in .config/autostart, same for .bashrc [07:29] got it, added to the launcher [07:30] Although Chrome is the default browser. Any general page-opening command I could look for? [07:30] EwoudCP, pstree could help figuring out what is starting what. [07:31] what page-opening command? [07:31] wow even with 4gb of ram this vm is running slow [07:31] virtualbox ** [07:32] init -> chrome -> various chrome processes [07:32] so i'm in terminal apm1, how do i access python? [07:32] just type in "python" without the quotes [07:32] it'll bring you the python prompt [07:32] wow, that was awesome [07:33] windows was such a pain [07:33] comradzilla, huh, One can make vbox runnign faster if using exported iscsi volumes for it. but it is not ubuntu prob. [07:33] don't know haven't used windows since 2001 comradzilla [07:33] you're a boss [07:33] comradzilla, you should check python documentation. === err-or_ is now known as err-or [07:34] for nikolam? === brad`_ is now known as brad [07:34] comradzilla, use #ubuntu-offtopic or #windows for pleasent talk about them ;p [07:35] i'm in #python :) [07:35] thanks for your help [07:35] and i'm in Europe ;P [07:36] what part? [07:36] !ot | comradzilla [07:36] comradzilla: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! [07:39] So it's started on init, not through some other app... === Shubuntu is now known as Guest21925 === Guest21925 is now known as Shubuntu [07:49] I do see a chrome entry in /etc/cron.daily/ but it's a package thing apparently [07:51] EwoudCP, hmm, chrome is adding itself system-wide to start during boot time... hmmm. Why not using chromium? It does not include google spying parts. [07:52] maybe that is simply to update itself , no matter if user is logged in? since it is installed outside from ubuntu packaging and needs that? [07:52] hey [07:53] where is the apache configuration file in ubuntu [07:53] I use Chrome for developer-specific reasons. It's my workstation. [07:53] killer: /etc/apache2/apache2.conf [07:54] EwoudCP chromium is in the repos > https://code.google.com/p/chromium/wiki/ChromiumBrowserVsGoogleChrome [07:57] Still, I doubt its Chrome adding itself. It opens with two about:blank tabs but that isn't my regular home. [07:58] If I open chrome manually after boot it appears to open my home and two tabs. [07:58] If i drag a Chrome tab to another screen it pops up on the left one :) [07:58] UBUNTU YAY [07:59] if i run Twinkle, every window i click on dissapears (until i shut Twinkle down, or minimize ti) [07:59] UBUNTU YAY [07:59] My default videocard has messed up drivers and i still need to compile them myslef probably [07:59] UBUNTU YAY [07:59] MrQuist, the excessive commentary is not needed [08:00] My soundcard didn't work. Still doesn't. Just my headphones now. UBUNTU YAAY [08:00] it feels like, since 6.0, that developers aren't focussed on usability anymore [08:01] MrQuist, this is not the complaints/rants channel. take it elsewhere. [08:02] What? I can't tell whats wrong? [08:02] So, where is the #ubuntu then? I guess i'm in #PraiseUbuntuOrThouShalltBeBurned [08:02] MrQuist, this is not the channel for rants/complaints [08:02] MrQuist: stop your flaming [08:02] MrQuist: if you have a support questions please write adetailed question, if you want to report bugs please use launchpad [08:03] Getting issue with proxy settings in ubuntu terminal, unable to update [08:04] Please guide me regarding this issue, using a oracle virtual box and ubuntu 12.04 installed in it [08:04] proxy settings on ubuntu terminal, how to by pass proxy [08:07] Hello, I [08:10] !details | MrQuist this is the correct way to report issues [08:10] MrQuist this is the correct way to report issues: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." [08:11] Hello, we are running a small network where the users are managed via ldap. From time to time there is a lag of about 30s when logging in, running sudo, etc. What makes it really hard for me to find the problem, is that there seems to be nothing going on during that time. I can see from the logs, that only after these 30s, he first runs pam_unix and then pam_ldap. Any idea where to look? [08:12] I have a problem, with ubuntu 12.04 vitual machine, unable to connect to internet on terminal due to proxy settings at workplace === dave is now known as Guest57142 [08:13] @param_ what is your network setting for the vm? [08:14] heyyo nice people.1. how do you make the computer go to hibernate? 2. what does 'suspend' command do?

[10:09] re [10:09] :) [10:09] Aktiffisus: apt-get install, before asking you if you want to actually go through with the installation, will list all of the packages that will be installed. You can then run "sudo apt-get remove *list of packages here*" to remove all of those packages. It's not perfect because you may decide later that you actually want some but not all of those packages, and more tricky you may install something later that depends on some of ... [10:09] ... the packages that that command removes, and so that something would be removed along with it.

[10:50] Claas: line 5. i cant exactly remember the disc name that will appear, but you'll see it [10:50] ah ok [10:51] what is with line 8 when im german ? ^^ [10:51] Claas: not sure. you'll have to do an `ls` to see the file name [10:51] Claas: what about being German? [10:52] So no one knows? :S [10:52] Hi, I need to remove the complete mysql-server package including configuration files. Please let us know the command here [10:52] but this installs diablo3 new or what that does ? [10:52] Hexagonite: do you have an asus n76vm laptop ? [10:52] Claas: ah, use the correct version of D3 setup then. [10:52] Nope, Acer Aspire One 722. [10:52] test [10:52] Claas: yes it installs new from disc. [10:53] i have already installed it with playonlinux ? [10:53] Claas: ich glaube, an deiner Stelle wäre es Diablo-III-Setup-de.exe? [10:53] Hexagonite: oh well, in any case I have the same wifi chipset as you but I've yet to even get it to connect to my wpa2-eap router [10:53] ähm jo [10:53] The dropping only happens in 12.04, I can't upgrade to 13.04 since it's elementaryOS. [10:53] aber ich habe es ja schon installiert mit playonlinux [10:54] Dann weiss ich nicht, [10:54] wenn ich den launcher aber starte mit play on linux und auf play clicke passiert nichts [10:54] but you should probably try that script again... [10:54] And switch back to English. :P [10:54] ok ^^ [10:54] I'd love to stay and chat but I have to go. [10:55] Just my way of saying moin ;) [10:55] yugandhar: sudo apt-get purge [10:57] statl : I have run the above command but still configuration files are existed [10:57] airtonix that dont work === Guest67858 is now known as Freeaqingme [11:04] jrib, does this look ok then? http://pastebin.com/EhaiEKm3 [11:05] hi anybody knows how to setup an ftp server on ubuntu using command line. I have similar problem with this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=833829 but the solution doesn't work [11:06] yugandhar: run `dpkg -l | grep ` and see if the packet's state is "rc" [11:07] EmFeld: sudo apt-get install vsftpd [11:07] yes already did that and it installed nicely [11:07] however I cannot write or overwrite in the server [11:07] yugandhar: that means it's removed but config files are still remaining. A `dpkg --purge ` should fix this. [11:10] yugandhar: sry for that needless grep... just do "dpkg -l " :) [11:12] Correction, I did't change anything and now unity won't start either (12.04 with all updates so far). I basically get an empty desktop on which the right mouse button does work, but there is nothing else. [11:17] Hiya, what do you guys recomend for distributed cron? I.e somewhere central to orchestrate tasks. [11:17] icedwater,are you there? [11:18] I use rundeck for some things, but it has the evil drawback that a job will fail if there is a network issue, since its executed via SSH. [11:18] I need something that starts the process on the server itself. [11:18] WebUI is ofc a big plus :) [11:21] Hi, how can I remove ubuntu safely from windows environment, do I need windows disk? [11:22] Janeks: Is it a wubi install or a proper instalation with its own partitions [11:22] Proper installation [11:23] I read that I will need to fix MBR after deleting partitions with any partition manager [11:23] Can I do it without windows installation cd? [11:23] Janeks: You'll need a Windows disk to reset the MBR so that it only knows about Windows by removing grub, once you've done that you can delete the ubuntu partitions & reformat the created space and map it to a windows drive, the people in ##windows should be able to advise you best on how to fix the mbr [11:23] whats the best pdf reader for ubuntu [11:24] hi - I'm trying to configure proftp so that it would write files as www-data:www-data, when logged in as user jdoe. I tried setting this in but it doesn't work. Any idea? [11:24] doc viewer is broken as fuck [11:24] sorry for the language [11:24] moses: well. there is only Evince and Okular ;-) === muellisoft is now known as Muelli [11:24] so I should fix MBR before or after removing ubuntu partitions? [11:25] tnx, anyway DJones, will ask in windows [11:25] chatroom [11:25] moses: there is no single best PDF reader....for any OS you can name [11:25] I need one where search actually works... Muelli [11:25] so I have two Ubuntu boxen... one has a 14TB filesystem and the other has a 21TB filesystem. I have data on the former that consume 9TB of the 14TB of space, but when copied over to the other box, it consume 10TB of space, yet block size is the same for both filesystems. What would cause data consuming 9TB of space on one filesystem to consume 10TB on another, when they are both ext4 and both have the same constitutive parameters [11:25] moses: hm. Searching works well for me in Evince. [11:25] ok [11:26] moses: try acroread, it is made by Adobe [11:26] moses: does it not for you? [11:26] moses: or tinypdf === ffio is now known as Guest68730 [11:26] im running a program, should i be installing things in ubuntu? [11:27] PoolShark_: Are any of the files sparse? [11:28] Jordan_U: 99% of it is bluray files, so I would say not [11:29] ah evince is horrible omgz [11:29] it cant search this PDF that i need [11:30] moses: mind to share the PDF? Preferrably in a bug report. [11:30] moses: it might well be that the PDF simply doesn't have text. Or that it is scrambled. [11:30] http://dasher.wustl.edu/ffe/downloads/guide.pdf [11:31] is the link [11:31] it just bugs the crap out of me to lose 1TB of my filesystem like that heh [11:31] PoolShark_: How are you measuring the space used? What is the more precise difference in space? (assuming it's not 9.9 TiB vs 10.1 TiB) [11:31] PoolShark_: bad sectors? [11:31] moses: and what do you intend to search? === Qqnurzt is now known as TjabbeTjibsma [11:32] Available Simulation Control Modes : [11:32] Jordan_U: using df... more precisely, it's 8.4TiB on the former system and 9.0TiB on the new system [11:32] moses: no bad sectors [11:32] moses: where doe it appear? [11:32] Muelli: not sure [11:33] it doesnt appear [11:33] when i search for it [11:33] but it shout [11:33] should [11:33] moses: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [11:33] moses: well. Obviously, it needs to be present in the PDF in order to find it ;-) So the next step would be to identify rendered text that isn't found when searching. [11:33] i think its all like that [11:34] can you verify it find text at all during search? [11:34] moses: sure. [11:34] i couldnt get anything to work [11:34] moses: try "introduction" [11:35] moses: but yeah, that PDF is very weird indeed. [11:35] ok [11:35] ill use windows [11:36] moses: please report if you have luck. Because the PDF is indeed scrambled. So I'd be interested to know whether acroread handles it fine. [11:36] moses: FWIW: You can use "pdftotext" to extract all text from the PDF. And then you'll see that it returns a lot of garbage. Looks like it was done on purpose by fiddling with the glyphs of the font. [11:38] the only thing that is different between the two filesystems are Inodes per Group and Inode Blocks per Group [11:39] moses: that said, once you find the "encrypted" version of the thing that you are looking for, you can copy&paste it from the PDF and use that to search for other occurences. [11:41] if you notice how the pdf is searched [11:41] it only accesses 1 single page [11:42] im not sure why [11:42] like if i type 'and' it only finds 3 ands on 1 single page and wong search for any more [11:42] very interesting [11:42] Hi all [11:42] Is someone willing to help me debugging my X / unity problems / the very commonly know blank screen boot? [11:43] Since upgrading to 13.04 my Lenovo T500 runs really, really hot [11:43] I suspect it has something to do with the graphics drivers [11:44] !nomodeset | geraldh Have you looked at these links, this may help with a black screen on boot, [11:44] geraldh Have you looked at these links, this may help with a black screen on boot,: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter [11:44] As I mentioned in my first post: yes, nomodeset doesn't change anything [11:45] It all started after the updates I did this morning, including the 32 kernel, but booting with an older kernel does exactly the same. [11:45] Got the following in my syslog: thermal_sys: Critical temperature reached(100 C),shutting down [11:45] This never happened in 12.04 [11:45] And it also never got this hot [11:47] DJones: okay, to be precise, nomodeset changes things a little, it keeps the purple screen forever === andrex is now known as andrex|off [11:48] nu11byte: did you upgrade to 12.10 as part of your upgrade to 13.04? [11:48] geraldh: Sadly, that was the only suggestion I could make, its not a problem I've had to deal with myself, so I wouldn't like to suggest anything else [11:49] nu11byte: yu do realize that 13.04 is only supported til January 2014...12.04 is supported til April 2017 [11:49] ActionParsnip: No I did a clean install of 13.04. I suspect my issue relates to graphics drivers though [11:50] geraldh: Hopefully somebody else with more knowledge than me can step in with some assistance [11:50] nu11byte: if you run: sudo lshw -C display what video chips do you see? [11:50] nu11byte: clean install removes a lot of complication :) [11:52] It tells me what I already know. It uses the Gallium RV635 driver. I still don't understand why it gets this hot though. On 12.04 I used MESA drivers. My laptop has two gfx chips (integrated + AMD), only recognizes AMD though [11:53] !hybrid [11:53] gah [11:53] nullby7e: there is a hybrid graphics how to [11:53] nu11byte: I've not used it myself [11:54] ActionParsnip: Thanks, I'll google it [11:54] * PoolShark_ runs bonnie++ on his 8x3TB Raid5 array [11:56] airtonix: thank you, didn't know about the script stanza, I will give that a try thank you :) [11:56] PoolShark_: please don't spam the channel [11:57] lol spam?

[12:13] PoolShark_: if you are having issues with the official ubuntu kernel from the official ubuntu repos then we can support it fully, its that simple [12:13] like, if I need support for Kernel X on Tuesday, go here, but if it's Thursday, go there... something like that? [12:13] PoolShark_: there are lots of channels for each app #kernel may be able to provide support on the kernel [12:13] PoolShark_: or at least point yo uto the right place [12:14] PoolShark_: plain simple, you have problems with the official repos, come here, you start fiddling around, you're on your own [12:14] PoolShark_: why do you need the 3.9 kernel so very badly?

[12:54] (by default it simply wipes out sources.list, and uses default ubuntu.com servers. [12:54] ) [12:55] sbarcteam: hmm, I thought that it kept the same servers and just changed release names [12:55] re [12:55] !eol servers [12:55] as far as I remember it doesn't do that smart thing....

[12:56] sbarcteam: I guess you could fool it by messing with your /etc/hosts if you have to. But my memory tells me it keeps the same servers. It's been a while since I checked though [12:56] never needed to press f12 to boot ubuntu [12:56] The F12 key tries to load the boot menu but it doesn't [12:57] iPenguin, that's not normal behavior ... are you booting cdrom or usb? [12:57] usb [12:58] iPenguin, so the usb is booting up but ubuntu won't load? [12:58] iPenguin i guess F12 lets you select the device to boot from [12:58] Yes Monkeydust but it wont boot the boot order menu.

When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." [13:04] it say failed to fetch [13:04] when i run apt-get === l057c0d3r__ is now known as l057c0d3r [13:04] xlaire: what is the output of: cat /etc/issue [13:05] Is there something akin to "restore points" on Ubuntu yet these days? [13:05] Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead. [13:06] thats what i get in the terminal [13:06] xlaire: what is the output of: cat /etc/issue [13:06] hi, I have a problem...with GRUB [13:06] hello i installed ubuntu 13.04 yesterday and i am experiencing some problems regarding the overheating of my machine and the fact that its a bit slower than i though. any suggestions? thank you [13:06] * inflex is getting a little tweaked when his pa meddles with things and *boink* Ubuntu ( or rather, X + DM ) is b0rk3d. [13:06] im sorry i dont get you [13:06] inflex: you can use your backups [13:06] dmavroid: run powertop. [13:06] and i am not seeing any of those messages [13:06] xlaire: its a terminal command [13:07] inflex, well with the ability to put your /home on a different partition.. and the backup features u can install / cloud backups [13:07] ActionParsnip: ZFS snapshots would have been nice [13:07] SwedeMike: i am new to ubuntu so can you be more specific please? [13:07] inflex: oh lotsly [13:07] im lost [13:07] re my earlier question about getting ubuntu running on a powerbook g4, looks like the best info (though not entirely hopeful or current) is here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam/Old [13:07] dmavroid use these tweaks to boost ubuntu http://paste.ubuntu.com/5735696/ [13:07] and then the ability create disc with all your installed apps.. [13:07] hai [13:07] xlaire: open a terminal and run: cat /etc/issue [13:08] can i ask doubts regarding ubuntu here? [13:08] xlaire: not the trickiest of tasks really [13:08] i think restore points would just take up useless space [13:08] this is what it display on the terminal when i run sudo apt-get update [13:08] MonkeyDust: this will solve everything? [13:08] l057c0d3r: they have their uses [13:08] not as usual messages i get [13:08] W: Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/raring-backports/multiverse/i18n/Translation-en_US Connection failed [IP: 91.189.91.14 80] [13:08] l057c0d3r: sometimes it's just nice to "roll back". [13:08] E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead. [13:08] xlaire: yes, but instead of running: sudo apt-get update run: cat /etc/issue [13:08] l057c0d3r: and there's more than ample space in most machines these days [13:08] dmavroid not the war in Syria; what do you mean by "sol [13:09] "solve everything"? [13:09] MonkeyDust: lol [13:09] Ubuntu 13.04 \n \l [13:09] MonkeyDust: everything-heating problem and speed problem [13:09] thats the output [13:09] xlaire: see, not hard...right? [13:09] dmavroid it's to speed up ubuntu [13:09] yes but im lost and didnt follow [13:09] sorry though [13:09] background is my boot disk was full, it's a VM runing Ubuntu Server 12.04, so I shut it down and made the hardisk file bigger, now I have Grub complaining as the unique id of the disk presumably changed??? anyhow it's asking me to install grub to /dev/sda (16106 MB; Virtual_Disk) or to /dev/sda1 (9662 MB; /) or both [13:09] i believe sinaptic has an undo feature whish is usefull for updates that break stuff.. but yeah i do see where your coming from.. [13:09] any advice appreciated [13:10] MonkeyDust: and what about the heating part? [13:10] how to fix that repository? did i use the correct term repository? [13:10] I haven't changed the partition size btw [13:10] dmavroid no clue [13:10] MonkeyDust: Looked at your script in pastebin... will it help with streeaming video issues? [13:10] xlaire: can you use http://pastie.org copy ALL the output from: sudo apt-get update and paste it there, hit the paste button and when the [age changes, copy the new URL and paste that in here [13:10] i am using ubuntu studio and forgot to make swap space while os installation, now i need swap space, but i have only one partition which is ext4 /dev/sda1 - in gparted the option for partition is disables, cause it is the one which has os, how to resize it? [13:10] like the fact that i cant use my facebook account right now for friends and empathy because something broke.. and when i removed the account and went to re add it [13:10] rather then pop up the login box in the online accounts window.. it opens my browser.... [13:10] ok got you [13:10] jeevanus_: use Ubuntu livecd [13:10] jeevanus_, boot a usb/cdrom. run gparted. reboot. [13:11] so cant re add my facebook account [13:11] l057c0d3r: oh well, maybe brtfs will bring something to us. Thanks any how. [13:11] use gpart from ubuntu live cd? [13:11] jeevanus_: yes [13:11] any ideas for me? with my GRUB issue? [13:11] MonkeyDust: how can i test if i am getting the most out of my graphic card? [13:12] dmavroid, get a modern game, set display to it's highest and see what happens ... [13:12] does apt-mirror in ubuntu download packages starting at the bottom of the dependency tree (so in the case of an interrupted mirror update, there won't be any packages that don't have their dependent packages available)? [13:12] cfhowlett: any other suggestions? [13:12] how much swap space is necessory? [13:13] jeevanus_: for what? [13:13] dmavroid phoronix.com does that kind of benchmark tests; check out how they do it [13:13] dmavroid, I imagine there's a video testing utility in the ubuntu software center .... [13:13] swap space for partition [13:13] jeevanus_: how much RAM do you have? [13:13] here: http://pastie.org/8009867 [13:13] jeevanus_, depends. I usually go RAM times 2, so 8 gigs === mariorz_ is now known as mariorz [13:13] cfhowlett: thank you [13:13] jeevanus_: do you require hibernate? [13:13] dmavroid, good luck [13:13] normaly how much swap space is necessory ? [13:14] jeevanus_: its dependant on the RAM amount [13:14] jeevanus_: there is no 'normal' [13:14] jeevanus_: which is why I asked how much RAM you have [13:14] well.. i have 6 gb or ram and my swap space has never been touched [13:14] MonkeyDust: thanks. i am guessign that by boosting up ubuntu the heating problem will be much greater! do you think that statement can be proved correct? :P [13:14] unless i hibernate [13:14] l057c0d3r: its used for more than just swapping [13:14] yeah how much swap space is "necessary" is a debateable topic [13:14] l057c0d3r: exactly [13:14] ok [13:15] my ram is 2GB === kairos is now known as kkkkkkkkkkkk [13:15] yes i require hibernate [13:15] jeevanus_: Then you will want 2.2Gb RAM at least if you need hibernation === kkkkkkkkkkkk is now known as kkkkkkk === kkkkkkk is now known as kkkkkkkk === kkkkkkkk is now known as kkkkkkkkk === kkkkkkkkk is now known as kkkkkkkkkk [13:15] "customary" is one thing, "necessary" is another... doesn't ubuntu default to =ram? [13:15] ok [13:16] jeevanus_, yow. low. install more ram when you can if you plan to do intense audio/video editing with ubuntustudio. [13:16] thanks [13:16] ActionParsnip, http://pastie.org/8009867, :P [13:16] hello Sir, i checked smart disk one of my HDD and i have this output # 1 Short offline Completed: read failure 90% 15571 527668571 === kkkkkkkkkk is now known as kairos [13:16] PoolShark_: suspend is to RAM or HDD< hibernate is the other one. I forget which is which but I don't use either [13:16] do you know whats thats mean? [13:16] :D [13:16] i dont like the interface in plain ubuntu so 1ly choose ubuntu studio, not for audio and video editiong [13:17] xlaire: why sudo -i? why not just run: sudo apt-get update [13:17] PoolShark_ ActionParsnip suspend is to RAM, hibernate is to disk [13:17] xlaire: why the extra step? [13:17] ActionParsnip: me either.. [13:17] jeevanus_, ok. for the record, the interface is xfce4 [13:17] jeevanus_: or install Xubuntu and get a nice XFCE session. It is also LTS [13:17] MonkeyDust: when ubuntu hibernates, does it hibernate to swap space or to somewhere in /? [13:17] they the same right [13:17] hmm [13:18] xlaire: then as root, you ran: sudo cat /etc/issue sudo is't needed as you are already root, the file is also user readable [13:18] xlaire: yes, they are the same but its an unecessary step [13:18] yes the problem is that error messages [13:18] not usual ending for the movie i watch update everyday [13:19] xlaire: looks like the US backports repo is being worked on or having issues. It's just a warning, I wouldn't worry about it [13:19] ok [13:19] ActionParsnip, ok thx [13:19] xlaire: "W:" means warning, not error === t_kjaergaard_ is now known as t_kjaergaard [13:19] xlaire: you could switch to the main server rather than the US server and it may clear [13:19] ActionParsnip, but it will still update if i proceed with command apt-get upgrade? [13:19] xlaire: I wouldn't worry too much === Trystam is now known as Tristam [13:20] have 1 question [13:20] ActionParsnip, ok thx [13:20] xlaire: sure, sudo apt-get upgrade; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade will work [13:20] did anyone have trouble with adding new NIC to 12.04? [13:20] Bruno_von_Troba: picked up first time, worked a treat [13:20] ActionParsnip, k [13:21] whoops [13:21] ActionParsnip: what you mean by "picked up first time"? [13:21] PoolShark_ not sure where it hibernates to, just know the difference between suspend and hibernate [13:22] MonkeyDust: Ah ok.. well it seems that ubuntu defaults to swap size = ram, so I imagine that if it hibernates to swap it would have to swapoff first, and that's doesn't always end well, so I would hope it hibernates to the filesystem somewhere [13:23] (at least, on my machine with 24GB of RAM, it created a 24GB swap partition) [13:23] ActionParsnip, can ubuntu server can be installed on USB drive instead of HDD? [13:23] xlaire: sure [13:23] xlaire: there is no difference between usb drive and hdd [13:24] xlaire: a hdd can also be a usb drive [13:24] I can't update a game from source code. I don't know how do it! Someone can help me? Please! xD [13:25] iceroot, ok someone already answer my question yesterday, ask again to be sure heheh [13:25] xlaire: sure [13:25] iceroot there is a little difference, for example i cant install ubuntu from CD connected via USB [13:25] ActionParsnip, k [13:25] xlaire: the OS doesn't care, its a lot more flexible than windows [13:26] Bruno_von_Troba: that is not an ubuntu problem, that is a hardware problem (its the way how the bios is handling usb) [13:26] Bruno_von_Troba: imo its called usb emulation in the bios [13:26] iceroot: on 10 different machines and 3 different USB drives? [13:26] Bruno_von_Troba: do you have a floppy drive? [13:27] Bruno_von_Troba: and what is the problem exactly? [13:27] Bruno_von_Troba: not booting from cd? [13:27] Bruno_von_Troba: there are floppy images to then boot USB if the BIOS doesn't support USB booting [13:27] any recommended virtual drive for ubuntu? [13:27] ActionParsnip: if i wil search through come junks i could find some... possibly even USB one [13:27] xlaire: mount itself [13:27] image? [13:27] hi, I've the new move syntax in c++11 makes expression templates unnecessary on matrix operations for example, but is this true for matrix with compile time size, where memory is not allocated dynamically? [13:27] xlaire: you want to mount images? [13:27] xlaire: mount can make virtual storagein tempfs all you need (as long as you have the RAM) [13:27] yes and how [13:27] zimbres: offtopic here [13:28] xlaire: mount can mount ISO files and so forth, if you are installing to USB you don't need taht [13:28] xlaire: sudo mount /path/to/image /path/to/mount [13:28] Hello, did anyone know about a good tutorial; WebServices in Java? [13:29] jayn: #java [13:29] iceroot: besides... the install from USBCD starts and works until... loading "create new user" [13:29] ActionParsnip, but iceroot give a command [13:29] Bruno_von_Troba: that does not sound like a usb problem [13:29] Iceman_B|, oww wrong channel [13:29] iceroot: and i'm only using LTS server version === Tayl is now known as Taylor [13:29] How can I establish 2 VPN connections on the same time. One is PPTP(to ISP) and the other is OpenVPN (Anonymiser). PPTP is configured through network manager, but when I launch OpenVPN through terminal, nothing changes (my IP is still established by my ISP). [13:29] iceroot, can't mount images will possible install a OS on the USB drive? [13:29] xlaire: ? [13:29] iceroot: and the same CD used ins standard SATA CD works fine [13:30] MonkeyDust: i installed powertop and i cannot find it on my Dash [13:30] MonkeyDust: what can i do? [13:30] dmavroid type it in a terminal [13:30] if i mount the images with the command you give, it will install ubuntu server on my USB drive [13:30] Hello, did anyone know about a good tutorial; WebServices in Java?

We only support Ubuntu problems here.

[15:07] ThePendulum: are you talking about data syncs or are you looking for something like raid1 [15:08] deww: Raid1, but less direct, so it is less prone to administration failure (i.e. deleting a file that wasn't supposed to be deleted) [15:08] Thus basically more back-upish than raid1-ish [15:08] ah ok.

[19:02] yep Snype [19:02] yes but you can choose to not do that [19:02] thats what i am saying [19:02] unetbootin sets that [19:02] dont save to usb [19:02] Snype: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.

[19:07] it is not use mouse in textmode,so i can't not copy it [19:07] theq: probably openvz starting them instead of running init :/ dunno about openvz but having used virtuozzo, it could be possible to add the daemons through control panel or something.

[19:08] Snype, thats not valid advice [19:09] bazhang, i forgot to put -current [19:09] sudo apt-get install nvidia-current [19:10] so if textmode(not startx) ,can we programming to make a gui window (when we not in startx mode)? [19:10] so in textmode(not startx) ,can we programming to make a gui window (when we not in startx mode)? [19:10] X-tonic, ubuntu uses py for a lot of things specially the package manager apt [19:10] so py2 to py3 shift will require a lot of changes [19:10] but i am pretty sure eventually everything will go py3 [19:11] not too soon though [19:11] hi , i've that on my ubuntu 13.04 trying to run intel graphic linux installer [19:11] http://paste.ubuntu.com/5736668/ [19:11] how can i solve it?

[19:12] thx [19:12] okay, have fixed the thing [19:12] Snype, yeah, cause a gnome goal was to build entirely in py3. Once that is done, it should take care of a lot of things in py3 portability.

[19:13] Snype: go to the dash and type in additional drivers... the gui should come up [19:14] maria900, but that dash will be empty [19:14] oh no [19:14] bumblebee? what's that [19:14] Snype: what version? [19:14] all versions maria900 [19:14] i recently installed ubuntu 13.04 and my cpu reaches 97 degrees celcius what can i do?

Then stick to EXT4, if you want to use Windows as well select ntfs, Select a name which is displayed when you attach the device and click create :) [19:15] @krabador, Don't run. Use traditional way for installing drivers. [19:15] you must have nvidia optimus or nvidia r to use it [19:15] tiger_: tell me how to do it and what to choose [19:15] dmavroid, you need to get your fans of the laptop cleaned, and see if they function properly. [19:15] dmavroid, run "top" command and see which process is taking most of the cpu usage [19:15] X-tonic: i have done that and still no luck [19:15] gh1234: no other difference between ext4 and ntfs? [19:15] click on create [19:16] what do u get [19:16] do ext4 [19:16] dmavroid, do you have nvidia video card?

[19:17] dmavroid, graphic card being unused, is pushing processing on CPU.

[19:19] dogofman, you are welcome to try [19:19] Snype: i mean... how is this a common error? [19:19] how do you know that? [19:19] dogofman, because i have it too [19:19] :( [19:19] dogofman, have it forever [19:19] try ntfs then [19:19] dogofman, and i get it always [19:19] dogofman, every fresh install [19:19] tiger_: Snype just told me it happens no matter what [19:20] X-tonic: any suggestions plz? [19:20] dmavroid, you need to install the ATI drivers. [19:20] dogofman: it will continue to happen if you don't repartition. [19:20] dogofman, it does not result in any low performance though [19:20] so does Snype has a solution [19:20] dogofman, atleast not for me [19:21] IdleOne: what are you talking about? [19:21] yes tiger_ ignore it :) [19:21] !wfm | Snype [19:21] X-tonic: when i choose the drivers and loggining into my account i cannot see the lancg and menu bar [19:21] Snype: did you get the lost+found folder?

[19:22] dogofman: your 512 bites error, it is suggested to repartition to avoid any possible slow performance. in 10 years of using linux I have never seen that error. Not as common as some say. [19:22] X-tonic: any idea why? [19:22] because i am pretty sure everybody has one [19:22] IdleOne: damn... [19:22] any idea why the high resolution option no longer shows up in the Display settings? [19:22] IdleOne, do u have windows installed? [19:22] dmavroid, I am not sure, Ill need to google myself about that. But clearly, the problem to be solved is installing the driver right, and cpu temp will be brought under control. [19:22] Snype: what does it do? i've never seen it before [19:22] Snype, please stop with the advice when you have no idea [19:22] dogofman, its just a folder [19:22] bazhang, how about you take over [19:22] bazhang: please tell me what the lost+found folder is [19:22] see ya! :) [19:23] @krabador, Yes, of course. sudo aptitude install xserver-xorg-video-intel [19:23] X-tonic: thanks [19:23] X-tonic: i will take a look at it myself. can this temp. destroy something? :S [19:24] dmavroid, not immediately.

[21:14] pvl1 ive literally just installed 13 from the website ran it, then did an update and its doing the same [21:14] pvl1: then I attempted to do the same thing only with ubuntu this time around. ubuntu works just fine running off of the flash drive on the machine I initially installed it with, as do the flash drives I cloned. but they don't boot on the other machines [21:15] Jayflux, , first apt-get update, the apt-get dist-upgrade [21:15] not just upgrade [21:15] pvl1 im doing it via the GUI [21:15] i just ran software update [21:15] emoltra, try using gparted to set the boot flag on the partition [21:15] Jayflux, do it in terminal [21:15] i can't stop it now :( [21:15] so basically that rules out bios configs, as arch worked. I also verified that the motherboard's usb ports were fine as I attempted to boot with an arch stick again, and that worked at all [21:16] booh, No, if your CPU is not x86-64 [21:16] so that narrows it down to a /boot issue [21:16] pvl1 alright, I'll check it out. thanks [21:16] when you press more details it appear to be doing it in the therminal anyway [21:16] My CPU is x64... but I have only 1Gig of Ram installed...

[23:24] there's lvm, and it's correctly discovered [23:25] The group shows it has 900G [23:25] and the physical device is /dev/dm-4 [23:25] but when I do 'fdisk -l /dev/dm-4' I get "Disk /dev/dm-4 doesn't contain a valid partition table" [23:25] Also I get number of bytes that is equal to something like 960G [23:26] so I can't find 60G, I'm pretty sure there were some partitions there… [23:26] marcreichelt: what do you need help with? [23:26] If dm-4 is a partition, not a drive, and that's why it doesn't contain partition [23:26] how can I find the drive? [23:27] melkor, I just can't live with this bug because it's really dangerous in loosing work [23:27] barnex: have you checked with gparted? it is a little more user friendly. [23:27] marcreichelt: Did you try some of the suggested fixes? [23:27] or work arounds? [23:28] it seems that the bug only is happening when the touchpad is disabled - which is the case for me [23:28] I am looking for a way to enable it, but I can't find it in gconf oder modprobe.d blacklists [23:29] You cannot enable your touchpad? [23:29] melkor: well, it shows something, but those aren't the disk ID's I'd like to see [23:30] they look like uuids, probably the meaningful names are symlinks to them [23:30] melkor, I think I disabled it once, but I do not remember where [23:31] I have a program that was made for unix, how do i know it will run in ubuntu? [23:31] Ok, I can mount the partition with this uuid (/dev/mapper/ddf1_ffffffffffffffffab114064ab114064ded31500ded30001p3), but it seems hackish :-) [23:32] moses: what program [23:32] marcreichelt: how about system settings? [23:32] its called babel 1.6 [23:33] looking [23:33] how do you unzip a tar.z file? [23:33] marcreichelt: I am using gnome-shell so I'm not sure what it is called if you are using unity. [23:34] melkor, I got it [23:34] moses: gunzip. Or if you are using ubuntu tar xf yourfile.tar.gz should extract it. [23:34] it was disabled by hardware key, and I pressed the wrong key :P [23:34] moses: just use the linux ver http://www.usinglinux.org/biology/babel.html [23:35] alien64: that takes me to exactly where i got it [23:35] in the first place [23:35] lol ok well [23:35] melkor, wow - GIMP seems to work again :) [23:35] thanks a lot! [23:36] lazors: it's a very nice new configure tool but perhaps it would be better if i can easily enter a resolution for the purpose to fit the picture into the screen can i also do that with that program? [23:37] moses: just try it [23:40] lazors? [23:40] moses: The program is available for Unix (AIX, Ultrix, Sun-OS, Convex, SGI, Cray, Linux), MS-DOS, and on Macs running at least System 7.0. linux is in the list:) [23:41] should i unclide any switches when using mv to move a directory? [23:41] include* [23:42] moses: probably not. You could use man mv to see what the switches do. === bh_ is now known as bh [23:46] how do you make a program? [23:46] in ubuntu [23:46] http://smog.com/chem/babel/README.txt [23:46] unix installation #2 [23:46] I've been following the instructions on SoundTroubleshooting. I can play sound as root with aplay, but I don't hear anything when I'm not root. My account is in the group `audio` [23:49] jello can any body help me to test if my graphic driver works well? i see a high cpu usage 30 or 40 % in normal use 80 % in youtube or flash videos. I run glxinfo grep render and rendering and glx gears and i see all are ok but i dont know why the cpu goes high on flash videos or on another works like open libre office or open a webpage [23:49] forgot i am using ubuntu 12.04 and propietary driver amd catalyts 13.4 [23:49] Aktiffisus: what's your hardware spec? [23:50] question, I have four montors setup on 13.04 as one big desktop. Every time i create an icon it shows one every screen, if i delete one they all disappear. What is causing this? [23:50] Aktiffisus: do you happen to be able to run gnome3 with that driver? I just installed a 7790 with the 13.4 driver and gnome3 crashes like it was born to crash. [23:50] hammommah it's the same icon on all monitors [23:50] If I'm sharing a directory via SMB and I do not allow guest access, do I set a specific user by adding them as a user to Ubuntu? [23:50] MonkeyDust, yes it is but why? [23:51] I dont want icons on every monitor just one? [23:51] hammommah it's the same screen on all monitors [23:51] i am ussing gnome fallback [23:51] Aktiffisus: yeah. I tried that and found it was horribly laggy (when moving windows). xmonad is working fine though [23:51] hammommah the same desktop view on all monitors [23:52] xmoand explain me [23:52] Aktiffisus: xmonad.org it's a tiling window manager. If you haven't heard of it, you probably don't want to be using it ;) [23:53] MonkeyDust, ?? the start bar is only one one tho? [23:53] i try all drivers embebed on ubuntu and dont see best perfomance and because that i install propietary driver the other drivers says "your amd graphic card not supported" [23:53] im new on ubuntu [23:53] hammommah yes, true [23:53] i dont know how to install or use many things [23:54] Aktiffisus: I had better luck with downloading the driver directly from AMD rather than using the packaged fglrx driver [23:54] Aktiffisus that's called "learning", like you had to "learn" windows or mac [23:54] granted, gnome is still crashing without any logs [23:54] MonkeyDust, is there anyway to have icons on one? I see what you mean by same desktop tho. [23:55] hammommah i don't know of any OS that has that option [23:55] i download the amd driver from amd page and install it whitout problems see the fps increse but the cpu usage increses proportional if i put some aaaaaaaaaaaa on libre office the cpu goes high [23:55] (i like learn mokey) [23:55] Aktiffisus: try an older AMD driver [23:56] how can i ? i only find this version on amd website [23:56] Aktiffisus: and if you find one that works, let me know [23:56] i will bn [23:56] both windows and mac can do it?????? i do it in win 7 , have one monitor for icons, start bar and temp monitors. And my wifes mac can put all icons on main screen not showing on other monitor [23:56] Aktiffisus: http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/linux/previous/Pages/radeon_linux.aspx [23:56] let me test it bro [23:57] hammommah then the four monitors show different parts of the same desktop [23:57] Aktiffisus: google for an older one -_- [23:57] hammommah i'm not sure if that's possible in linux [23:58] MonkeyDust, yes this is true, isnt this what linux is doing, concidering I can drag windows between all four monitors.... hmmmmm [23:59] hammommah: What window manager are you using?
