[00:02] eshietweb: i would suggest trashing windoZe & keeping ubuntu ... sorry a bit of bad humor there ;-) [00:03] naa [00:03] Does anyone know by chance how I would go about compiling an ethernet driver from source and getting ubuntu to use it? [00:03] Hi all. Having an issue where I can't boot into the GUI on my Ubuntu machine. LiveUSB I can boot just fine and works as normal. I've just installed the ATI drivers, but it does not appear to be working anymore. I know those are generally recommended against, and if so could someone direct me to a set up guide to an open source one? [00:03] nevermind, got it I think [00:07] !nomodeset | b14d3 [00:07] b14d3: 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 [00:08] Thanks Tex_Nick, but I actually have GRUB set up to boot nomodeset already [00:10] b14d3: ahh ok ... i probably can't help you then, however you need to provide more specifics ... graphics adapter, driver etc ... in order for the channel gru's to be able to hyelp you :-) [00:11] Hi there === root____1 is now known as tyd [00:11] channel guru's ^ [00:12] Fair enough. The graphics card is an ATI, I honestly don't remember the specifics about it. The driver was run by just installing fglrx, I haven't really done anything else. Although interesting enough, the problem manifests the same way as what the nomodeset fixes. [00:12] hmm [00:12] I've set up a dnsmasq server, but for some reason the hosts from /etc/hosts are not resolved on other systems on the network. Am I misunderstanding the use of dnsmasq or is there something I might be doing wrongly? === ubuntu is now known as Guest40686 [00:12] OK I got 3.8 to boot once threw recovery and selecting run but when it reboots the top of the screen is all pixel color garbage and it doesn't do anything.

Need to learn them. Result: product: Turks [Radeon HD 6670] [00:16] eshietweb: you're welcome :-) [00:16] can we chat later together? [00:16] Is there a way to run one command and then another command after the first one finishes? [00:16] Hello, I did a minimal ubuntu 12.04 install with xorg and xbmc, and I just want it to start xbmc from the getgo. I created a config in /etc/init/, but for some reason I think it is being ignored. Any ideas? [00:17] phunyguy: why not install xbmcbuntu? [00:17] Because I wanted to do it the hard way. [00:17] eshietweb: i'll always chat/help if i can [00:17] phunyguy: I get that :D [00:18] Yay, ethernet [00:18] lol [00:18] I'm surprised e100e isn't included in 13.04 [00:19] http://www.unifiedremote.com/ is there anything like this but for ubuntu? I want to control youtube specifically.. [00:19] Does anyone have any ideas of stuff I can try to fix this unbooting upgrade. [00:20] hello [00:20] Where do I ask questions about connecting servers to the canonical landscape application? [00:21] dacdave: Probably #ubuntu-server [00:21] b14d3: great sir ... as i stated i'm just not good enough to help with graphics problems ... you'll need to provide that info someone who can help ... keep asking in this every so often ... i know you want the problem resolvedquickly ... sometimes just need for the right person to come along [00:21] Yeah, I used to come in here all the time.

[00:28] Yeah, I'm trying something out right now.

Did you just run dist-upgrade and new kernel installed, but haven't rebooted yet? [01:17] While I'm still working on my GUI issue, I have another problem that I can't seem to fix either. Everytime I reboot, the system mounts a 1Mb "Overflow" drive to /tmp. Fortunately I have a spare hd that I can mount to it manually, but I'm not sure why it isn't using the OS hd.

The last message in syslog when this happens is " wpa_supplicant[1383]: wlan0: WPA: Group rekeying completed with xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx [GTK=CCMP]" [01:23] This is on 13.04 [01:24] Are there any other logs I should be looking at?

[01:25] tgm4883 : Does /var/log/wpa_supplicant.log exist? [01:26] elisa87: I would suggest, to make sure all the proper stuff is installed: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install dkms linux-headers-generic build-essential linux-source ...then to try again with: sudo apt-get install nvidia-current [01:26] sethj, nope [01:27] elisa87: Actually, the last command would be: sudo apt-get install --reinstall nvidia-current ...since it's installed, just not correctly [01:27] deww: where can I put the htpasswd file? my home is encrypted and /root is unreachable to the apache user [01:28] sethj, I seem to have wlan0 entries in kern.log, I'll check that log again the next time the wireless dies (give it about 5 minutes) [01:28] Anyone know why an ssh session to GoDaddy stays open fine, but an sshfs mount dies after a couple of minutes? [01:29] asharas: /var/www would be ok [01:29] tgm4883: Humm. OK. I suppose you're configuring your wireless through the network connections manager? (GUI method) [01:29] sethj, yes [01:29] sethj, it's WPA2 Enterprise [01:29] asharas: i dont think it's the encryption, but most likely the proper permissions. also you look into how to prevent people from being able to read your password file.

I'm trying real hard to install Ubuntu on my desktop but all I run into are issues. I was able to get it installed with EFI, but now I can'T connect to internet with neither my wifi card nor my ethernet card, any ideas? [01:33] deww: I found the problem: accessing the htpasswd file [01:33] it works :) [01:33] Epoxx, but it's installed? [01:33] tgm4883: What is the output of: [01:33] ls /sys/class/net/wlan0/device/driver/module/drivers [01:33] ? [01:33] yes it's installed. I first thought it was an issue with version 13, but now I have v12 and its the same dead [01:33] dead -> deal [01:34] give me a second (this is my laptop :) ) [01:34] sethj, pci:iwlwifi [01:34] asharas: also look here http://www.askapache.com/htaccess/security-with-htaccess.html#Prevent_access_htaccess_htpasswd_files, i'm pretty sure your config as is, allows people read your password file if they figure out the name. [01:34] tgm4883: Interesting. We're both using similar network cards and the same driver.. [01:35] I don'T even have wlan0 , I only have eth0, so I'm assuming I don't have the proper drivers for my wifi card. Still can't connect using ethernet though :( [01:36] deww: should I chown my .htpasswd file? and then chmod it? [01:37] Epoxx, kind of stupid, but have you disabled wifi with the Fn +whatever key combination? [01:37] its a desktop, so no [01:37] Epoxx: If it's connected to some dhcp server like on a router, maybe try: sudo dhclient -r eth0 && sudo dhclient eth0 ... then see if it got a number with: ifconfig [01:38] Epoxx, ah. Wow, that's really weird then [01:38] its connected to my laptop using a network bridge (might be the culprit, although I used this often with windows) [01:39] asharas: most apache default setups restricts people from actually being able to read files start with .ht, so you should probably just rename it from .rutorrent-htpasswd to .ht-whatever-you-want. just make sure to change it in your config and restart apache [01:39] tgm4883: Unfortunately I need to go.

[02:27] yofun: Yes, that's the syntax [02:27] yofun, I am no guru but try it without the password and it will ask for it upon connection [02:27] GuilhermeCunha: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5763395/ [02:27] thanks genii good night [02:27] My software manager isn't working, when I try to download/install something it doesn't work [02:28] Is Raring Ringtail 13.04 a nightly build?

[02:28] alright thanks [02:31] maybe a dumb question but can i just edit /etc/network/interfaces and add eth0 and dhcp to it? [02:33] is anyone aware of what might cause gdisk to say that the gpt table is corrupt after I just used gdisk to create a new table? [02:34] Hey --- how can I setup a folder so that all files created in the folder take on the permissions associated with the folder? [02:34] this might be happening on 2 identical drives [02:35] Ex. If folderX is owned jsmit:users -- i want all files created in the folder (by anyone) to be associated with the users group [02:35] obviously the user will be difference [02:35] different* === SonikkuAmerica is now known as T_T [02:37] so..i'm going to upgrade a remote system…can anyone advise me how to backup the current system to my local computer so that if anything goes wrong i could easily restore it? [02:38] Cpudan80: you'll want to look into using acl's to accomplish this. I'd give more information if I had any but I haven't really used it.

[02:42] hi, three of my ubuntu box suddenly got permission 754 for /etc, which made many services failed. i didn't do it myself and i didn't find anything else changed, no clue in auth.log etc [02:42] is there a good resource for setting up my ubuntu server for multiple domains? tools, security, best practices? [02:42] winegoddess: all domains owned by you? [02:44] How would I go about installing Ubuntu from my hard drive? [02:44] hi felixonmars - yes. it is on a backspace server that i have [02:45] so, my question is really set up of server, as well as setup of domains. ny tolls to help make this easy if i have 20+ domains i wish to setup which are all similar setups (wordpress, php database) [02:45] use something like cpanel? [02:46] Hello [02:46] ? [02:46] hi felixonmars - i didn't setup cpanel. but something script wise, that lets me set up domains quicker/easier. and then 2nd question, general setup concerns for security... [02:47] i just heard of http://tuxlite.com/about/ today [02:47] how do I install a .deb via command line? [02:48] DarkAceLaptop: sudo dpkg -i *.deb [02:48] thanks [02:49] dpkg-deb (subprocess): cannot copy archive member from '/home/justin/Downloads/steam_latest.deb' to decompressor pipe: unexpected end of file or stream [02:49] perhaps a corrupted download? [02:49] the steam install popped up; should I continue, or redownload? [02:50] s/install/installer [02:50] winegoddess: or something like openpanel, zpanel, webmin, ajenti ... all free [02:50] good night, I am using ubuntu 13.04 amd64 and I have installed Java EE 7. I am having a problem getting glassfish updatetool to work. Everytime I run updatetool, it tells me that my os is 64 and not configured for 32. However, the multiarch packages are installed. Can anyone help me resolve this problem? [02:50] DarkAceLaptop: doesn't sound good. I'd suggest downloading again [02:50] DarkAceLaptop: i'll recommend a redownload [02:51] felixonmars: of those do you have a preference? also any good sites for resources such as this? [02:51] other than wikipedia? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_web_hosting_control_panels [02:51] winegoddess: not really, as im not running php sites :p they all have homepages and demos, if you gonna try [02:52] trying to understand would this be one per domain? or can i set it up somehow (using some tools) so that i can create a new domain in the server and have it automatically install a cpanel with it? [02:53] I'm interested in both sides, the server setup in general (security as well) and then making it easier to setup new domains with a standard setup [02:53] rather than individually [02:54] spanish [02:54] any picture manager to find images by resolution? [02:55] I need some help. Accidentaly I have installed grub on /dev/sda instead of /dev/sdb. There is how to unistall grub without loose my windows system? [02:55] mop: google images search tools has a size dropdown [02:55] mop: or do you want a scraper? [02:55] somsip, I mean a native app [02:55] for my picturds [02:55] hi i cant find out how to setup the keyboard hotkeys for a Gateway LT4009u [02:55] anybody know [02:55] winegoddess: no, you will just create & manage websites (incl. domains) on cpanel itself, if your server have cpanel installed [02:56] so it is more like a Web Host Manager (WHM) than a cpanel used for individual domains? [02:56] marcelomauro: you need your windows recovery disc to fix the boot record [02:56] sorry i only have used cpanel for one domain, not a server [02:56] winegoddess: cpanel is multi-user program [02:57] winegoddess: and it's fine if you want all your domains in one user [02:57] mop: I missed the obvious. For a local search or internet search? [02:58] you know like image files on my hard drive [02:58] winegoddess: https://blog.cpanel.net/managing-multiple-domains-from-a-single-cpanel-account/ \official blog [02:58] hi i cant find out how to setup the keyboard hotkeys for a Gateway LT4009u [02:58] felixonmars, I have no disk because I upgrade my windows from win7 to win 8 [02:59] so sorry felixonmars - for my misunderstanding. i have a server, and i wish to have ~20 domains setup. i was just going to have ssh and ftp, but perhaps a cpanel will be good to allow others a UI for access. are you saying i setup 1 cpanel for the server and everyone access it (not what i want) or that setup 1 cpanel, and someone then further configure to setup the domains? (i justhavent seen a cpanel like that if i a [02:59] understanding correctly) [02:59] Does anyone know of an application that could be used to make a professional looking pdf like this one?:http://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/6781003/EvE/Quick%20Reference%20Sheet%20by%20Korgan%20Nailo.pdf [02:59] am I supposed to build tar.gz's myself, then? [02:59] marcelomauro: if i recall correctly, you could download a tool from microsoft's website to create a usb stick to recover this [03:00] also, the download was corrupt, somsip, felixonmars [03:00] it was missing 1/4 of itself [03:00] Hi everyone. I can't for the life of me figure out how to update my OpenGL drivers past 1.4. My understanding is that these drivers for Intel HD 4000 integrated gpu's come with the kernel...yet there's a later release? How do I get said later release? [03:01] felixonmars: thanks for that link - i did not know about this approach [03:01] winegoddess: you setup a cpanel, then everything's up to you. if you want different guys to control different sites and domains, just register them individual accounts on your installed cpanel [03:02] DarkAceLaptop: just redownload the deb file and install the not corrupted one [03:02] yeah [03:02] done [03:02] are tar.gz files packages, or just compressed files that you don't install? [03:03] install like .deb files, that is [03:03] mop: find will do that. eg: find . -type f -size +1G [03:03] mop: you just need to adapt to only find files ending in jpg|png|gif etc [03:03] Hi. are there ways to tweak how ubuntu thinks my battery is charging/discharging? [03:03] DarkAceLaptop: you extract then with tar zxf filename [03:04] DarkAceLaptop: sorry i didnt catch it. deb files are just compressed archive in a normative way === ubuntu is now known as Guest96792 [03:07] Alright. I'm going to try playing with TLP. still open to suggestions though. === shantorn- is now known as shantorn [03:13] Hi all, I have a laptop that I installed Ubuntu on, during the install phase it detected my wireless nic fine, however now it keeps asking me for the wifi pw even though its been put in correctly. Any suggestions? [03:15] Katronix, is it the right kind of password set (WEP vs WAP, etc) ? [03:16] boink__ I'm assuming so it never asked [03:16] no idea then :) [03:16] i am noob :P [03:17] why is my ifconfig only showing lo and no eth0 ? clean install of 12.04 [03:17] i am lost [03:17] boink__ would assume it doesn't see your nic [03:18] nic as in network information center? [03:18] a dns problem you mean? [03:18] nic = network interface card [03:19] so updating the drivers of my NIC should do the trick? [03:19] yep [03:19] boink__: ifconfig only shows up interfaces [03:19] try ifconfig -a or (better) ip link [03:20] uplink 1: lo: blhalhblahbalhba and then 00:00:00 all zeroes [03:20] ip link [03:20] i read on google a lot of people having this problem but couldn't really fix it with any of the suggestions [03:32] hello comrades [03:36] anyone know how to restore reFind on a Macbook after upgrading OSX ? [03:36] ??? [03:37] can anyone offer any suggestions? during installation had no issues finding wireless nic, now it keeps asking me for my wireless pw not accepting the correct pw [03:40] Ok, my /sys/class/power_supply/BAT1/power_now contains a stupid high value when my laptop is charging. Is there a known way to change that? It's causing ubuntu to think I'll have a full charge in 3 minutes rather than the two hours it actually takes. [03:44] so I haven't been able to use my TTY terminals since I upgraded to 13.04, is this a common issue and if so, how can I fix it? [03:46] servvs what happens when you try? [03:46] zivester: probably, a channel for OSX support. Not here [03:46] when I log in, it logs in just fine but instantly goes back to requesting a login [03:47] is there a way to connect ossx and ubuntu via USB cable? [03:47] somsip, eh, its not.. reFind is used to boot ubuntu... but i figured it out, just had to run install.sh again [03:47] no pen drive, no network in ubuntu, no cd-r on the osx :( [03:47] zivester: so it is. I never heard of it before. now I have :) [03:48] servvs: sudo service tty1 status [03:49] histo: tty1 start/running, process 3746 [03:49] haha. I have an ideapad, but this could be related http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/drivers/acpi/battery.c#L99 [03:49] can anyone offer any suggestions? during installation had no issues finding wireless nic, now it keeps asking me for my wireless pw not accepting the correct pw [03:50] servvs: do you have anything goofy in your .profile or .bashrc ? [03:50] alias ls="ls --color=always" [03:50] alias l="ls --color=always" [03:50] just those 2 lines [03:51] servvs: do you have .bash_profile ? [03:51] yes, same lines in it [03:53] servvs: and a .profile? [03:53] Does anybody here use Ncmpcpp, I'm having some troubles getting it to work ! [03:53] anyone ? [03:54] histo: I don't have a .profile [03:55] servvs: interesting.... regardless I have no idea what is causing the login to restart. Let me poke around a bit hold up. [03:55] <|kira> I'm having a hard time choosing mint cinnamon... or ubuntu with cinnamon... I'm not sure will be more stable. [03:55] I accidentally installed grub in /dev/sda instead of /dev/sdb. Can I remove this without erase my windows system? I found something on internet but it needs a install cd. I have no one. [03:56] marcelomauro: you'd have to use a windows disk to fixmbr c: or whatever their command is [03:56] <|kira> you could just leave the grub there and put another where you want [03:56] marcelomauro: doesn't really matter. If you want grub to work it needs to be installed to the bootable disk of your computer. [03:57] servvs: did you try searching askubuntu.com ? [03:57] histo: I installed ubuntu on extern hd... [03:58] marcelomauro: how do you intend on booting to it? just selecting the external from bios? [03:58] marcelomauro: the later windows versions use the bootrec tool [03:59] histo: I have used like this without problem, but I should have installed grub on /dev/sdb instead /dev/sda. It was my mistake [03:59] servvs: could be something goofy with pam. Have you checked dmesg or /var/log/messages ? [04:00] So, I installed #29-Ubuntu SMP on AWS. I log in and there are 68 processes running and 226MB of ram already being used! What can I disable or uninstall to lower those numbers drastically? [04:00] <|kira> cli ubuntu sing 226MB??? [04:00] I only need to be able to run apache and varnish on this, but I want as much resources free for those as possible. [04:00] digs: used? [04:00] marcelomauro: well /j #windows they will be able to explain the process of restoring your MBR on /dev/sda You need to boot to a windows disk or system repair disk to fix it. [04:00] yes... [04:00] KiB Mem: 603840 total, 225608 used, 378232 free, 8676 buffers [04:00] digs: what does the second line of free say? [04:00] That is from top. [04:01] what's the solution to this? warning: can't open /etc/mtab: No such file or directory [04:01] screw top. what does free say?

Thanks for the clarification. That seems _much_ better to me :/ [04:02] so you could start by interpeting the data correctly also http://www.linuxatemyram.com [04:02] /join #wikipedia [04:02] Still, 68 processes, surely some of those could be knocked off. [04:02] possibly. but probably not. [04:02] digs: seems about right. I have about 80 with apache and a few other things running on Ubuntu EC2 [04:02] I know it is right. [04:03] digs: so lots of stuff is running.. [04:03] I am saying, there has to be a way to lower it. FreeBSD can run on half this on a base install. [04:03] Hi, I have more than one kernel on my computer, but I can't select witch one should boot.... the menu has disappeared! [04:03] you've got a bunch of gettys cron, upstart syslog etc [04:04] <|kira> Is there an ubuntu iso that is free software only and no legal BS for distribution? [04:04] histo: do you know why am I receiving this ? mounting filesystems...152 warning: can't open /etc/mtab: No such ...file or directory [04:04] [04:04] I was simply asking if any gurus in here knew of a few things that are not really needed that could be killed off.

[04:04] !atemyram | digs [04:04] digs: If you are wondering why some tools report your system has very little free memory, have a look at http://www.linuxatemyram.com/ | A short primer on Linux memory management can be found here: http://sourcefrog.net/weblog/software/linux-kernel/free-mem.html [04:04] |kira: http://www.gnu.org/distros/free-distros.html [04:05] /etc/rc.local is supposed to run at startup right? why does the inside of it say it "executes at the end of each multiuser runlevel" what does that mean? [04:05] GunArm1: I am not in it. [04:05] GunArm1: yes it runs at start. There are different runlevels [04:05] GunArm1: it doesn't run at some runlevels, such as single user [04:06] histo: can you please look at this? http://paste.ubuntu.com/5763549/ ? I used sudo mount /dev/loop1 /mnt/mount_x86 and then used debootstrap and binded dev , proc and sys [04:06] <|kira> xangua: tris is a nice distro, but i need a bs-free ubuntu iso... hmmm.... [04:07] elisa87: what are you trying to do? [04:08] elisa87: mtab is just a status file btw. [04:08] |kira: The main iso contains only free software. You could not enable the other repos if you want.

I go to a specific site, called Eli the Computer guy.. and for whatever reason, the site damages my web browser from using the internet.. this happens only with that site.. then I have to restart ubuntu to get back my internet connection.. this happens with no other site.. anyone have any ideas what this might be? I have my DOM storage on the browser turned to false and I use privoxy as a system wide proxy and that seems to [04:19] have something to do with it.. all my other network connections like the software center seem to work but firefox seems to clunk out before needing to reboot the entire system. This look familiar to anyone???

[04:38] somsip, any way i could backup the database and reinstall mysql [04:39] KrisHansen: so change you default browser [04:39] is anyone here [04:39] asdfas [04:39] histo: i did and theadminalready helped me and it solved the issue [04:39] Sir-Litepool: you could try reinstalling mysql-server. If you backup /var/lib/mysql you will have all of the data files in there. But YMMV and all that [04:39] is this working [04:39] !test | BabyCat [04:40] BabyCat: Testing... Testing... 1. 2.. 3... ( by the way, remember that you can use /join #test ) [04:40] somsip, i will do that then, what do you mean by YMMV? [04:40] Sir-Litepool: Your Mileage May Vary, eg: don't expect a successful result === BadLarry is now known as BadLarry_ [04:40] oh, damn this is just my luck [04:41] histo no luck === BadLarry_ is now known as BadLarry [04:43] Katronix: did you try the multiple answers there? [04:43] Katronix: if so perhaps try using another method for connecting other than network-manager [04:44] histo from the install dvd can I install that tool you recommended since I can see the net from it? [04:44] Katronix: or the nm-cli command [04:45] Katronix: sorry nmcli [04:45] histo any idea what i should do [04:46] i think i run out of luck [04:46] !ppapurge | Sir-Litepool [04:46] Sir-Litepool: To disable a PPA from your sources and revert your packages back to default Ubuntu packages, install ppa-purge and use the command: « sudo ppa-purge ppa:/ » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html [04:46] I have a question about package naming conventions, which I found confusing. If (theoretically) I coded up a project, which I call "derp", and it's version 0.05, and the package doesn't exist in either Debian or Ubuntu, how do I name it? "derp-0.05-0ubuntu1" is my current guess [04:47] Jesse_V you're building your own .deb for it? [04:47] yeah meatmanek, I will but I need to get the naming right [04:47] so everything after the - is pretty much up to the distro maintainer [04:48] dh_make generates a changelog file, which has a version number in it [04:48] so the ubuntu project might have -0ubuntu1 [04:48] and I want to get that right, along with the correct name of the package folder [04:48] thanks histo giving it a shot [04:48] whereas debian may have -0debian1 [04:48] Warning: Could not find package list for PPA: purplekarrot ppa [04:48] histo [04:48] right. I'm running Mint 14 at the moment, and if I build for that, I'm building for quantal. Do I need to say that? [04:48] Sir-Litepool: what were you trying to use a ppa for btw? [04:49] Sir-Litepool: also what are you doing when the mysql error happens? [04:49] to install libbost1.47 and over histo [04:49] I just created my own PPA yesterday, and I'm in the process of working on correctly building things and uploading them to Launchpad :) [04:49] well i did update after ppa [04:49] well it worked fine, and someone ddosed me [04:50] then i rebooted and it messed up [04:50] Sir-Litepool: Ahh well you failed to mention that. [04:50] Sir-Litepool: what do you use mysql for? [04:50] queries [04:50] duh [04:50] Sir-Litepool: sudo service mysql status [04:50] ohai guys, i'm trying to compile stuff with -m32 on 13.04 (amd64), i seem to be missing all .so's from /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu, e.g. my libSM http://dpaste.com/1237581/ [04:50] Jesse_V: no, you don't need to specify. It's generally a convention that indicates who made the package. I'd maybe use "jessev" instead of ubuntu [04:50] histo sudo service mysql status [04:50] hi [04:50] meatmanek: why's that? [04:50] all [04:50] sorry histo mysql respawn/post-start, (post-start) process 10048 [04:51] Sir-Litepool: yes I told you mysqld before. [04:51] if i manually symlink the .so.x as .so, the linker works [04:51] Jesse_V: because you aren't an official package maintainer for the ubuntu project [04:51] meatmanek: oh right, I see [04:51] Sir-Litepool: sudo service mysql restart then what were you doing when you get the sock error? [04:51] meatmanek: so then "derp-0.05-0jvictors1" would be correct then? [04:51] should be fine, yeah [04:52] join archlinux [04:52] which would turn into "derp-0.05-0jessev1_amd64.deb" [04:52] right? [04:52] I just don't want to look like a newb, that's all :) [04:53] even though I am at building packages like this [04:53] histo restarting does not respond just says stop/waiting, i tried connecting through python didn't help, through php didn't help, through command line and it still gave ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) after entering password [04:53] half the battle is making it look like you know what you're doing [04:53] !dev | Jesse_V [04:53] Jesse_V: Interested in becoming an Ubuntu Developer? Get started here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment [04:53] thanks [04:53] not at the moment, I'd like to start with just my Launchpad PPA and work up from there [04:54] Jesse_V: Launchpad takes care of building the packages itself [04:55] but I need to upload .changes, so don't I have to build stuff to generate that? [04:55] maybe I don't understand the procedures [04:55] Jesse_V: ...Oh. Well... I thought... Uh. I'm not into Ubuntu development myself and Debian packaging is confusing [04:55] Jesse_V: But I think Launchpad does building anyways [04:55] it does [04:56] with 40,000 packages you'd think there'd be clear instructions instead of a steep learning curve [04:57] but anyway, is "derp-0.05-0jessev1" -> "derp-0.05-0jessev1_amd64.deb" good for a package named "derp", of version "0.05", built for Quantal? [04:57] maintained only by me, and which does not exist in Debian or Ubuntu? [04:58] Jesse_V: Normally, ppa packages have stuff like 0ppa1 in the name, not 0jessev1 [04:58] ok, so if my ppa was named "testing", then I'd replace "jessev" with "testing"? [04:59] Jesse_V: No, no, literally the string "ppa" [04:59] what? [04:59] "derp-0.05-ppa"? [05:00] even with "ppa:jvictors/testing" as my PPA path? [05:00] Well... All ppa packages I've seen have something are named like derp-version-0ppa1 or such, yes, literally "ppa", not "testing" or "ppaname" [05:00] ah ok [05:00] quick question [05:00] But I may be wrong. Jesse_V, you may have more luck asking this in #ubuntu-packaging [05:01] didn't know that channel existed... [05:01] how difficult is it to customize ubuntu? [05:01] drhester7: ...Depends on what you mean [05:01] drhester7: easy, it's Linux :) [05:01] i have chrome-beta installed and the google entry added to sources.list so that it will auto update. yesterdays update mentions it cant install because of 'unauthenticated dependancies'. how do i see what those are? [05:01] drhester7: what's your experience level? [05:01] drhester7: and what customization do you want to do? [05:01] drhester7: you can do everything from changing your background to recompiling your kernel. It's Linux after all [05:01] seronis: Try updating from a terminal: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [05:02] seronis: It'll tell you where it has authentication issues === BadLarry is now known as BadLarry_ [05:03] my experience level is beginner but I learn quickly and I'm talking about modifications to the GUI and other stuff like that [05:03] anyone else have any suggestions for my packaging naming question? [05:04] histo you her?E [05:04] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1861136 [05:04] you see it says the solution was to merge the two apparmor files [05:04] drhester7: depends on the "modifications" you are speaking of on how difficult it will be for you. [05:06] histo: basically I'm just trying to personalize it to me. I'm a windows user over mac so I like the minimize and close buttons on the right instead of left. [05:06] drhester7: you can fix that in Ubuntu. Or you can switch to Linux Mint, which has that by default, and which is based on Ubuntu [05:07] * Jesse_V runs Mint 14 [05:07] drhester7: all that stuff is very easy [05:07] Jesse_V: Please don't recommend unsupported derivatives [05:08] histo: part of this process is so that I can gain experience in computers all around [05:08] drhester7: Having the buttons on the right in Ubuntu is problematic, considering they'll move to the left when you maximize the window anyway because it merges the titlebar with the top panel [05:08] theadmin: well Mint isn't supported by Ubuntu, it's supported by the Mint team, so it is technically supported by them [05:08] drhester7: As a Windows user, you may like the KDE desktop better (get Kubuntu or install the kubuntu-desktop package, click: http://apt.ubuntu.com/p/kubuntu-desktop ) [05:09] Jesse_V: I mean those not supported by this channel. [05:09] drhester7: there's a setting for it, but it's been a while and I forget where it is [05:09] ah, sorry then theadmin [05:09] is Cinnamon supported? [05:09] it's in the repos [05:09] sup yall [05:09] Jesse_V: Is in the Mint repos, not Ubuntu's [05:09] theadmin: again more of it is for the experience. I like to figure stuff out but I need somewhere to start [05:09] Oh, never mind [05:09] histo oddly enough I brought my laptop physically closer to the router and it started working [05:09] Jesse_V: It's in the Ubuntu ones, so I guess it's supported [05:10] I thought you could install Cinnamon in Ubuntu from the standard repos, maybe not, sorry [05:10] Jesse_V: Yeah, is in universe/x11 [05:10] that's what I thought [05:10] Jesse_V: Just found it. Odd. Well anything in the repos is supported here [05:10] drhester7: well then Cinnamon should put the buttons on the right side, and the desktop looks awesome IMO [05:12] hi [05:16] i'm attempting to make a 32bit build on amd64 13.04, however some of the 32bit packages i require want to remove my g++/gcc-multilib and libc6 -stuff, how do i manage around such packages? === jalcine_ is now known as jalcine [05:33] hejki, I'm thinking you should look into multi-libs [05:35] zczx [05:35] Ìû [05:35] troll alert [05:38] how to setting acces poin in ubuntu ??

I can't great a GPT non-destructively, can I? [05:42] scx: also the /usr/lib* should be just /usr/lib [05:43] scx: and apt-file maybe helpful for you.

[05:44] histo: not on 64-bit system [05:44] histo: there is /usr/lib and /usr/lib64 [05:45] SuperLag: If you created a filesystem on a drive instead of a partition, then I guess you can't exactly create a partition table without losing the data [05:45] scx: not on my system [05:45] theadmin: unless the fs starts after the first sector which I doubt [05:46] hi guys [05:46] anyone here?

[05:47] you guys realize that online doesnt mean actually here [05:48] anyways, i got a question about socket programming [05:48] I have installed "Terminology" and changed a video setting, now Terminology starts but as a blank application (worthless) so I tried uninstalled with apt-get remove --purge terminology but it still keeps the settings when i try to reinstall so it's still worthless for me, any suggestions? [05:48] trying to send data from one program to another using UDP on locahost [05:48] but apparently i cant bind two sockets on th same address on the same machine [05:48] citric-: Most apps store settings either under ~/.appname or ~/.config/appname [05:48] citric-: That is, those that run as a regular user [05:48] basically i want full duplex communication over UDP on the same machine [05:48] is this possible> [05:49] deller: what language are you writting in? [05:49] c [05:49] theadmin, thanks, i will look into it.

[05:50] citric-: Eh, depends. Terminal connection? Definetly ssh. Full desktop? You can use VNC. TeamViewer is also an option, and is definetly the easiest to configure. [05:51] theadmin, does SSH require any configuration or can I just ssh user@ip and good to go? [05:51] histo: when I set it up, I just did mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdb1 [05:51] citric-: Well, you can as long as the server machine (one you're connecting to) has openssh-server installed [05:51] citric-: (and running) [05:51] ahh. [05:52] SuperLag: then you have a partition of /dev/sdb1 what is the problem you are experiencing? [05:52] histo: like this: UUID=ea891955-9dc7-4012-803c-91d561764c83 /home ext4 nodev,nosuid 0 2 [05:53] histo: I just added a third hard drive. And mSATA SSD. When I started up gparted, that's when it referenced the second drive, and said it didn't know the partition table type [05:53] * SuperLag might be a little nuts... 3 SSDs in his laptop. :) [05:54] SuperLag: are you sure you aren't selecting the wrong drive? [05:54] I should get a mSATA drive. === corehook__ is now known as corehook [05:54] SuperLag: sudo blkid [05:54] SuperLag: paste the output of that to paste.ubuntu.com also lsblk wouldn't hurt [05:55] theadmin, you run unity? or gnome? [05:55] citric-: Unity, why does that even matter? [05:55] theadmin, was just a poll :D [05:56] !poll | citric- [05:56] citric-: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task.

[06:00] histo: it just seems odd, that's all. Why would gparted show it as unallocated, when it definitely *is* allocated, and currently in use, even? [06:00] SuperLag: no idea why gparted is being weird you'd have to have /dev/sdb1 not mounted to mess with it anyways [06:01] theadmin: /dev/sdb: x86 boot sector; partition 1: ID=0x83, starthead 1, startsector 63, 1000215153 sectors, extended partition table (last)\011, code offset 0x0 [06:01] SuperLag: ...looks fine, I dunno. GParted is just being weird I guess [06:01] SuperLag: It's not a perfect program [06:01] SuperLag: looks fine [06:02] theadmin: What?! not perfection?! :O [06:02] ;) [06:03] Hi, I wish comment multiple lines in /etc/network/interface file at a time. How can we do it ? [06:04] is there any way to do it at a time? [06:04] please help me [06:04] yugandhar: Uh, well, depends on your text editor. With vi, :11,15s/^/#/ [06:04] yugandhar: Where 11 and 15 are the first and last line you wish to comment [06:04] and also, for vim, the block visual mode can also do that. [06:04] oh, thanks alot [06:05] theadmin: Thanks a lot [06:05] yugandhar: Many text editors have a "comment line" option which you can use with selections, too [06:06] histo: theadmin: This came up when I was attempting to create a partition table on /dev/sdc http://www.zimagez.com/zimage/screenshot-06132013-110546pm.php === jzheng_afk is now known as jzheng_mtg [06:07] SuperLag: Hm... [06:07] SuperLag: I dunno, looks like a broken GPT then [06:07] maybe I should copy my data off of /dev/sdb, create a new GPT table, and put it back. [06:07] im trying to merge 2 app armours like in here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1861136 [06:07] not sure how to [06:07] I just don't want to lose data [06:12] The ThinkPad W530 is a nice laptop to run Linux on. [06:12] It's been great.

[06:17] yugandhar: you could also probably use sed [06:19] histo : Could you please give me the command? [06:21] yugandhar: which line numbers? [06:22] yugandhar: sed '1,10s/^/#/' somefile would start lines 1 through 10 with # [06:23] histo: Thanks a lot [06:23] hi guys , is there any easy way to force network manager to only use a particular hotspot or do I have to do it manually for that ? [06:23] yugandhar: you'd have to use -i to actually do it inline [06:23] Hi [06:23] yugandhar: or I should say inplace vs just printing the changes to stdout [06:23] Question: I'm wanting to "upgrade" from 32 bit to 64 bit. On the installation type screen, can I choose "Reinstall" or do I have to completely reformat the drive? [06:24] I have a question [06:24] anders__: format [06:24] !ask | we6jbo [06:24] Thank you! [06:24] we6jbo: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience [06:25] anders__, you can probably keep your user settings if you got them on a separate partition, but the entire system, including all programs, must be reinstalled [06:25] I was wondering if there is a program that would let me run a command and then wait for the command to finish before running a different command [06:25] we6jbo, if I'm not mistaken && will do that [06:25] we6jbo: I think && would work. [06:25] At later times though [06:26] we6jbo, i.e firefox && echo "firefox has finished" [06:26] program 1 && sleep && program 2 [06:27] Like for instance if I ran wget http://example.com/file1.zip and then in 5min I wanted to run wget -c example.com/file2.zip but I wanted the first wget process to finish before running the second one [06:27] just using wget as an example [06:27] we6jbo: you can try run wget files from a list. [06:27] wget 1 && sleep <5 minutes> && wget 2 [06:28] yeah but i would have already done wget 1 and then hit enter [06:28] lets say it takes 30min to download that file [06:28] we6jbo: well wget can use file lists [06:28] we6jbo: Couldn't you just open a new terminal tab/window? [06:29] we6jbo: you can add your links to a text file called lets say filelist and then wget -i filelist [06:29] yeah === NK`_ is now known as NK` [06:29] we6jbo, you basically want a command that checks if another process is running and start if it has finished ? [06:29] we6jbo: or just wget file1 && wget file2 [06:29] that would work [06:29] we6jbo: using && waits for the first command to finish successfully before starting the next [06:30] I like JennyBlueBird 's idea [06:30] I dont know how to do that though [06:30] we6jbo, it depends what you want to do tbh [06:30] we6jbo, what exactky is the issue with && ? [06:30] it seems to do what you want [06:30] cause I would have already entered the command [06:31] I dont know maybe I'm over thinking it [06:31] why can't you enter the two comands at the same time ? [06:31] the webmaster gets mad [06:31] we6jbo: you can use the at command to schedule something to be done [06:31] we6jbo, huh? how would he know ? [06:32] Yeah I was thinking using at but I'd need the first command to finish though [06:32] we6jbo: at 4:30pm cat /your/mom [06:32] we6jbo: then write a script to monitor the pid of the first command [06:32] yeah that would be good [06:32] here I'll get one of his emails [06:32] we6jbo, && does not execute the comands simulatenously. It executes the first one, and then runs the second if the first one finishes with a successful termination [06:33] ok here's one. He basically says that I'm downloading too much stuff and it's costing him money [06:33] we6jbo: if you just want to run one command after another regardless of the first one use somecommand ; someothercommand [06:33] we6jbo, so if you want to wait a little between two commands, just do: wget file1 && wait
