| mojtaba | Hi, Does anybody know winconn? Is it the ultimate solution? or is there any better equivalent? | 00:07 |
| vfw | mojtaba: For what? (What is winconn?) | 00:07 |
| mojtaba | vfw: it is for using windows apps in linux. | 00:08 |
| mojtaba | anybody else? | 00:08 |
| tylerehome | ok, so I put up with unity for 17 hours...which is about 16.9 longer than I thought...e17 time now though | 00:08 |
| vfw | mojtaba: But there are very few windows apps one would need. Right? | 00:08 |

| elisa87 | can anyone please help me with this error? libtool: install: error: relink `libpcreposix.la' with the above command before installing it | 00:09 |
| LupusNoctis | zykotick9: this is just a base install from the latest distro, with the internet updates enabled | 00:09 |
| LupusNoctis | haven't done any funny stuff yet, other than enable/disable the "3d accel" setting in the VirtualBox VM | 00:09 |
| vfw | ThothCastel: What? | 00:09 |
| ThothCastel | vfw SSH connection | 00:10 |
| LupusNoctis | I'm guessing there are special distro images for use inside VMs, or something. | 00:10 |

| mojtaba | vfw: Yes, but at the end there is no limitation! | 00:11 |
| kboodu | Can someone point me at a documented source on why it's bad to next mounts on Linux? | 00:11 |
| vfw | kboodu: "next mounts"? | 00:12 |
| kboodu | Why you should not mount the following drives ( / (/dev/sdc1), /var (/dev/sdd1), /var/data1 (/dev/mapper/vg_data) , /var/data1/info ( /dev/mapper/vg_data_info) as an example. I need a FINE manual to point to | 00:12 |
| kboodu | Err, nested mounts | 00:12 |
| kboodu | It's too late on a Friday....and I shouldn't be trying to "prove" this. | 00:13 |
| Ben64 | kboodu: what? | 00:13 |
| vfw | mojtaba: I've used wine, but not winconn | 00:13 |
| kboodu | Ben64: Nested mounts... | 00:13 |
| vfw | mojtaba: I've also used VB | 00:13 |
| kboodu | Shouldn't use the term drives...<sigh> Mount points. | 00:14 |
| Ben64 | kboodu: could you explain what you're saying in english | 00:14 |
| kboodu | the root filesystem / is /dev/sdc1 | 00:14 |
| mojtaba | vfw: please check its website | 00:14 |

| kboodu | then /var is mounted (/dev/sdd1) | 00:15 |

| kboodu | but then they mount /dev/mapper/data1 as /var/data | 00:15 |
| lenswipe | for some reason my girlfriend's macbook (previously running ubuntu) shows the ubuntu loading screen for a split second and then just shows a black screen | 00:15 |

| lenswipe | I've tried purging the MBR and grub and re-installing both - no change | 00:15 |
| Ben64 | kboodu: ok, is there a question related to ubuntu support anywhere in there? | 00:16 |
| lenswipe | and because ubuntu isn't giving me any more detailed info than a black screen I don't really know what direction to go in | 00:16 |
| lenswipe | I do have a log from the boot repair I can link to though if that would help | 00:16 |
| lenswipe | does anyone have any idea what might be up with this? | 00:16 |
| Ben64 | !nomodeset | lenswipe | 00:16 |
| ubottu | lenswipe: 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 | 00:16 |
| kboodu | And no, I would NOT want to do that. But I'm not able to convince anyone else it's bad (because if you lose anything in ther you lose everythign underneath). | 00:16 |

| melow01 | kostkon, no, I installed alsa | 00:30 |
| SpaceManiac | zykotick9: no ncdu installed, pretty sure it's ext4 | 00:30 |
| zykotick9 | SpaceManiac: ncdu isn't installed by default - but it's mightly helpful... | 00:31 |
| melow01 | zykotick9, yes, I verified audio levels with alsamixer but no output | 00:31 |
| EDocToor | vfw, this time the boot stopped with this error: /dev/disk/by-jaljdlsjflsjdf does not exist... | 00:31 |

| EDocToor | I guess I mucked it up for good eh | 00:31 |
| wilee-nilee | zykotick9, I believe so, there is a folder for deleted stuff if you gksudo nautilus, I think. | 00:31 |
| EDocToor | the video card is nvidia | 00:31 |
| zykotick9 | SpaceManiac: that sucks... good luck. | 00:31 |
| EDocToor | I have to power down to look at the card | 00:31 |
| SpaceManiac | wilee-nilee: just rm -rf'd them, not nautilus | 00:31 |
| vfw | EDocToor: NOt sure what that means. | 00:32 |
| wilee-nilee | ah | 00:32 |
| zykotick9 | wilee-nilee: you're right, i'd believe is you do silly thinks like "gksudo nautilus" that silly things will happen... but hey MUCH better then just using sudo ;) | 00:32 |
| EDocToor | vfw... it means that my grub needs to be updated/reinstalled | 00:32 |
| kostkon | melow01, as already suggested, check your volume levels and switches in alsamixer. | 00:32 |
| EDocToor | do I have to reinstall ubuntu to reinstall the grub | 00:32 |
| vfw | !grub | EDocToor | 00:33 |
| ubottu | EDocToor: 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 | 00:33 |

| SpaceManiac | where in the world is my disk space going | 00:58 |
| Ben64 | could be open files | 00:58 |
| Serraphyn | This might be OT and if so i'll go ask somewhere else, I just installed 13.04 and was wondering how I could setup the system to work as the gateway for all my internet, basically Modem -> Ubuntu -> my internal router(wifi) that has DHCP already going on it. My idea is to hookup my android phone to the ubuntu box as a second internet when my cable internet goes down. | 00:58 |
| msdaisy | Serraphyn: I dont think you understand how routing works. you could use the ubuntu phone as a second internet connection. | 01:00 |
| msdaisy | but not the ubuntu os on a computer. | 01:00 |
| === Tylerjd is now known as Georgey7 | ||
| Serraphyn | msdaisy, I think you misunderstood what i was wanting to do. I'm not really super concerned with the phone aspect right now anyways. I'm wanting to setup my ubuntu 13.04 box as a gateway, it has 2 physical Wired LAN cards to accomplish this already installed and working | 01:02 |
| === Georgey7 is now known as Tylerjd | ||
| Ben64 | Serraphyn: you have a router.. it does a better job at being a router than your computer would | 01:02 |
| dr_willis | ! ics | 01:02 |
| ubottu | If you want to share the internet connection of your Ubuntu machine with other machines in the network see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Internet/ConnectionSharing | 01:02 |
| Serraphyn | Ben64, again not the point | 01:03 |
| SpaceManiac | Ben64: I don't think I have >half my hard drive of open files | 01:03 |
| === black is now known as Guest39113 | ||
| Ben64 | SpaceManiac: restart into single user mode and check free space again | 01:04 |
| msdaisy | Serraphyn: then help us understand. what do you want to accomplish by having ubuntu ad the gateway? | 01:04 |
| Serraphyn | msdaisy, partly I want to use it to control the internet connections to the internal system. Right now I just have a Buffalo Router which is fine, but it wont allow for more then one form of internet connection at a time. | 01:05 |
| Daughain | Morning, all. | 01:05 |
| msdaisy | Serraphyn: I don't know what that means "to control internet connections to the internal connections." it sounds to me like you just need a better router. can you install dd-wrt on the buffalo router? | 01:08 |
| Ben64 | and you can't really use more than one form of internet at a time | 01:08 |
| Serraphyn | Redundancy is the reason Ben64 | 01:09 |
| Serraphyn | If one internet goes down, I want the other to kick in | 01:09 |
| LupusNoctis | Oh, DD-WRT will do that, Backup WAN connections | 01:09 |
| LupusNoctis | even Load balancing, perhaps | 01:09 |
| Ben64 | load balancing requires better hardware | 01:10 |
| Serraphyn | LupusNoctis, I wasn't able to find anything about using android phone pass thru for that | 01:10 |
| msdaisy | Serraphyn: again, the solution would be to tether your computer to your phone and use the cell data | 01:10 |
| LupusNoctis | Surprised the Buffalo doesn't do that straight off, they are a higher end router far as I've encountered | 01:10 |
| LupusNoctis | Oh, hmm, a USB tethered phone as the backup WAN? that could be trickier | 01:10 |
| Ben64 | some buffalos come with dd-wrt preinstalled | 01:12 |
| Elegant | hi | 01:12 |
| Serraphyn | LupusNoctis, awesome routers tbh, I'm glad I spent the 250 for it, amazing wif signal, just my isp has gone down a few times lately during the day for a few hours a time and we need our debit machine for credit/debit cards to stay active. | 01:12 |
| msdaisy | Serraphyn: then you need a different ISP | 01:13 |
| Serraphyn | msdaisy, thats not a real solution tbh, all ISPs have down time. I'm setting up something for reliability | 01:14 |
| LupusNoctis | Serra: is there another provider you can use, that end up in an Ethernet termination? | 01:14 |
| LupusNoctis | because it's easiest to backup/LB two ethernet WAN ports | 01:14 |
| Serraphyn | LupusNoctis, I know but I'd rather have my cell phone as the second cause it would only cost me like 20$ if we go down for a few days even once in a bit vs having a perm second recycling bill. I'll figure it out and make a wiki or something on how to do it. | 01:15 |
| Ben64 | Serraphyn: solution is to keep your phone tethered 24/7? | 01:16 |
| Serraphyn | Ben64, when its down yes, I hate my cell phone anyways. | 01:16 |
| LupusNoctis | oh, this is something You'd manually configure? | 01:16 |
| Ben64 | would be easier to get a dialup connection lol | 01:16 |
| LupusNoctis | If it were manual, then what you could do | 01:16 |
| LupusNoctis | is set up a different, cheap router in Wifi access mode | 01:17 |
| LupusNoctis | and use it to Extend the phone's Wifi net sharing | 01:17 |
| LupusNoctis | and connect the debit terms to that ethernet | 01:17 |
| LupusNoctis | WiFi repeater/Extender mode, rather | 01:17 |
| LupusNoctis | then, just swap out that router for the Buffalo on the network side | 01:17 |
| LupusNoctis | power cycle the debit terms to get new DHCP, and off ya go | 01:17 |
| LupusNoctis | You follow? | 01:18 |
| Serraphyn | Ben64, my phone comes from my internet carrier and the both go down at same time. | 01:18 |
| Serraphyn | LupusNoctis, yes I know what you mean but thats not the solution I want. I can make this actually auto switch I juust have to figure out how to setup the tethering | 01:19 |
| LupusNoctis | Look into how to Tether USB modems to the Buffalo | 01:19 |
| msdaisy | Serraphyn: lol. get a verizon mifi card. or some other cell data plan | 01:19 |
| Serraphyn | msdaisy, again the plan I'm on is actually cheaper monthly if I max out my cell data as I have LTE service and it works fine. | 01:20 |
| Serraphyn | Max I pay a month for 10G of data would be 50$ were as a mifi of the cheatest calibur would be 90$ a month even if I don't use it all | 01:20 |
| msdaisy | Serraphyn: i understand. but if you're looking for reliable enterprise-worthy failover then you need a mifi or something. | 01:21 |
| LupusNoctis | The lowest level plan from an alt DSL provider is probably a better config, Serra. | 01:22 |
| LupusNoctis | or, if your main is DSL, a cable provider | 01:22 |
| Serraphyn | LupusNoctis, lowest cost DSL would be about 40 a month, every month | 01:22 |
| LupusNoctis | Is it worth $40 to keep your POS terminals up? That's a business class decision, not a tech one :) | 01:23 |
| LupusNoctis | but, there should be a way to get a USB device recognized by the buffalo | 01:23 |
| LupusNoctis | I know they work with USB HDD devices. | 01:23 |
| LupusNoctis | DD-WRT might have more on how USB WAN modems would work | 01:24 |
| janof | can anyone confimr what the best way to re-import a pgp key is? | 01:24 |
| Serraphyn | LupusNoctis, I just want to use a gateway device to manage this | 01:24 |
| LupusNoctis | some buffalo's run DD-WRT stock | 01:24 |
| janof | my computer crashed on me | 01:24 |
| msdaisy | Serraphyn: Crunch the numbers. How much are a few hours of down time worth to you in sales? pay that much for a backup plan. | 01:24 |
| LupusNoctis | Oh, hmm, what's that linux distro that tries to virtualize a bunch of networking related components.... hmm | 01:25 |
| jason_hudson | Hello everyone, I'm having some difficulties understanding some "features" of Ubuntu Online Accounts, whenever I try to set an empathy account up I'm taken to the Online Accounts tab where I'm supposed to configure them, now, instead of asking me my data Ubuntu is taking me to a web page within that tab where I'm supposed to log in, whenever I log into a service (let's say Google) I'm told that the data will be handled accordi | 01:25 |
| jason_hudson | ng to Google's and Ubuntu's (Canonical's?) policies. Does that mean that Canonical is going to store my data on their server? I don't seem to understand how it works (there's also a legal notice that's quite confusing); could anyone explain this to me?

| janof | with PGP, if i lost my private key, but i have my public key, revoke.asc, and i have my passphrase, is it possible to get my private key back? | 01:35 |
| th0r | janof: no, I don't think so | 01:36 |
| Tylerjd | Is there a way to do a full disk scan on a hard drive that is reporting bad sectors and it finds that it does not actually have bad sectors it will... re-enable those sectors per say? | 01:36 |
| Daughain | Thanks.Thats a strat, at least. =) | 01:36 |
| Daughain | Start | 01:36 |
| janof | th0r, since i have the revoke, i can just take it back and make a new key right? | 01:37 |
| th0r | janof: revoking doesn't actually "take it back". The old key is still out there, but marked as revoked. And yes, that would be how you handle it, revoke the old one and create a new key pair | 01:39 |

| dr_willis | best to install windows first. | 01:49 |
| dr_willis | bestest put both on their own hard drive B-) | 01:49 |
| dr_willis | less fighting with grub that way | 01:50 |
| EDocToor | dr_willis, If one would put both on their own hard drive.. where would the grub be located | 01:50 |
| EDocToor | or be put | 01:51 |
| dr_willis | either hd.. or both.. | 01:51 |
| dr_willis | I keep it on the linyx hd. | 01:51 |
| naryfa | dr_willis: I agree with the hard drives, I've always done it this way | 01:51 |
| EDocToor | wouldn't it be best to put the grub on the linux | 01:51 |
| dr_willis | that way windows is totally untouched | 01:51 |
| EDocToor | one.. in case you remove the linix drive | 01:51 |
| EDocToor | that way winddows is totally untouched | 01:52 |
| dr_willis | ive seen people keep grub on a external usb as a "security" feature | 01:52 |
| dr_willis | grub is flexible | 01:53 |
| naryfa | well, use another thumb drive and you boot it, where's the security | 01:53 |
| EDocToor | Understood.. the grub is flexible... I am wrong | 01:53 |
| EDocToor | the grub must be on the WINDOWS drive | 01:53 |
| EDocToor | because if you remove the linix drive with the grub on it.. the grub won't | 01:54 |
| EDocToor | be there to load windows | 01:54 |
| EDocToor | is that right | 01:54 |
| EDocToor | naryfa, YOUR OBviously correct | 01:55 |
| dr_willis | with 2 hds.. no | 01:55 |
| dr_willis | gurb and linux can stay on its iwn hd | 01:55 |
| dr_willis | the windows bootloader stays on the windows hd. | 01:55 |
| RoDiMuS-X | How does Grub work with UEFI? | 01:55 |
| vfw | !uefi | | 01:56 |
| ubottu | : UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware, it is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI | 01:56 |
| EDocToor | dr_willis, what happens if you remove the linux hard drive with the grub on the Linux drive? | 01:56 |
| EDocToor | will windows work | 01:56 |
| SpaceManiac | Gah.... | 01:56 |
| msdaisy | EDocToor: you understand that grub is in the boot sector, it runs before windows or ubuntu. right? | 01:59 |
| SpaceManiac | The darn thing won't boot into recovery mode | 01:59 |
| EDocToor | elisa87, I would remove the Ubuntu drive.. and put in a new drive for Windows 8 to be installed on... after the install; put back the Ubuntu drive.. and recreate the grub on the WINDOWS drive.. therefore if you remove the UBUNTU drive the Grub.. will still BE on your computer and it will be able to find WINDOWS... Less headache that way... in my opinion.. | 02:02 |

| dr_willis | bios boots the linuc hd.. grub can then boot the windows hd. | 02:06 |
| SpaceManiac | Well rebooting fixed it somehoe | 02:06 |
| EDocToor | your an expert.. but | 02:06 |
| sesshomaru | thats the issue, is there another package thats compatible? All I see is a 3270 emulator, but I don't want a printer emulation. | 02:06 |

| ditchwindows | any difference between WUBI and installing linux with an USB? | 02:09 |
| EDocToor | dr_willis, one more related question... ONE hard drive with XP pro.. and Ubuntu partitioned... where do you put the GRUB | 02:09 |
| SpaceManiac | Any recommendations for USB wifi adapters for ubuntu? | 02:09 |
| utusan | put in primary bot HD | 02:09 |
| utusan | boot* | 02:09 |
| psusi | ditchwindows, yes, Wubi installs the system in a file inside the Windows partition... not recommended | 02:09 |
| utusan | netgear or linksys | 02:10 |
| EDocToor | utusan, thanks... | 02:11 |
| ditchwindows | psusi: i am currently running Win7, i would prefer to have dual boot, if i install ubuntu onto another partition will i have to recover the grub? or will it recognize that i have both and create the boot menu for both? | 02:11 |
| dr_willis | EDocToor: only place it could go normally.. the mbr of the hd. | 02:11 |
| sesshomaru | ditchwindows: That's generally how it goes | 02:11 |
| chrisirc | I'm trying to help a singer use Ubuntu. He's got a lot of music (mp3, wma, some wav), and I wonder how to help him best organize that. | 02:11 |
| psusi | ditchwindows, if you install Ubuntu after windows, it will recognize Windows and add an entry to boot it to the grub menu | 02:11 |
| dr_willis | SpaceManiac: i read reviews in amazon to see whats ines worked with no hassles. ;-) | 02:12 |
| vfw | chrisirc: Only he can organize his files. | 02:12 |
| ignore_me | ditchwindows: Willl usually work unless you have the damnable software raid. It locks onto windows, hard. | 02:13 |
| chrisirc | I'm pretty firm on "organize things in the filesystem", but not being a music collector myself, I haven't had to deal with lots of songs. Also, he's not a very advanced computer user, plus handling files in Ubuntu's file manager isn't perfect, etc. | 02:13 |
| EDocToor | ditchwindows, Ubuntu is so easy to install after windows... the updated grub will include windows... but it will default to loading ubuntu.. if your not there to select windows | 02:13 |
| chrisirc | vfw, I'm looking for tips on tools to support that | 02:14 |
| chrisirc | or approaches. | 02:14 |
| chrisirc | Someone who's done it. | 02:14 |
| chrisirc | *from | 02:14 |
| utusan | chrisirc: try kubuntu/amarok/nepomuk | 02:15 |
| utusan | EDocToor: you can change default in grub | 02:16 |
| msdaisy | psusi: you can run sudo update-grub to... update grub after the installation. | 02:16 |
| vfw | chrisirc: Put them all in one directory. | 02:17 |
| DreamPCs | Hey guys, quick question. Can I use dd to put a Windows ISO on a flash drive? | 02:17 |
| msdaisy | DreamPCs: if it's an exact copy then it should be bootable, right? | 02:18 |
| SpaceManiac | What does it mean when apt-get upgrade says linux-generic is 'held back'? | 02:19 |
| chrisirc | utusan, why kubuntu? I can't find nepomuk; thanks for the hint on amarok, are you using it with a big collection? | 02:19 |
| DreamPCs | I'd imagine so, I just didn't know if dd was for linux distros or if it works univerally. | 02:19 |
| DreamPCs | *universally | 02:19 |
| dr_willis | dd for an windows iso.. depends on the windows version also | 02:20 |
| DreamPCs | XP? SP3? | 02:20 |
| dr_willis | #windows should know what ones work | 02:20 |
| dr_willis | xp i would say no. | 02:20 |
| dr_willis | win7 might. ive heard win8 does | 02:20 |
| DreamPCs | Ok, cool, thanks for the info. | 02:21 |
| utusan | chrisirc: amarok is the front end/music player but uses nepomuk and/or strigi for indexing | 02:21 |
| chrisirc | vfw, and I told you that the file manager in Ubuntu isn't the best? | 02:21 |
| dr_willis | SpaceManiac: try 'sudp apt-get dist-upgrade' | 02:21 |
| vfw | chrisirc: Chose another | 02:21 |
| dr_willis | sudo | 02:21 |
| chrisirc | vfw, and that he's not very savvy? | 02:21 |
| vfw | chrisirc: I use thunar | 02:22 |
| dr_willis | nautilus does a decent job. | 02:22 |
| dr_willis | depends on what your needs are, as to what alternatives are better | 02:22 |
| chrisirc | good luck with some 5000 music files that way, and wanting to find things, tagging, grouping in various ways. | 02:22 |
| chrisirc | As I said it clearly seems that the fs without specialized assistance is *not* the way to go. | 02:23 |
| vfw | chrisirc: So, how does he do it now? | 02:23 |
| utusan | DreamPCs: if you want to copy the contents of an iso to usb, I think you need to mount it with the loop option | 02:23 |
| vfw | chrisirc: Again, only he can organize his files. | 02:23 |
| chrisirc | What are you trying to say? | 02:23 |
| chrisirc | You're making me angry. | 02:24 |
| dr_willis | copying the CONTENTS of an iso to usb will definatly not make a bootable usb | 02:24 |
| ignore_me | Can mediatomb serve files to a ps3? | 02:24 |
| dr_willis | ignore_me: i think so. most dlna servers can | 02:24 |

| dr_willis | which may need enabled | 02:24 |

| Grivvel | Hello! When I attempt to ssh to my ubuntu box via the ip address I get one host key (an ssh-rsa key), but when I attempt to ssh to it via my domain name, I get a different host key (ecdsa-sha2-nistp256 key) and my client machine complains about the difference. Does anyone know why I might be seeing these two different keys? | 03:27 |
| Grivvel | I checked with nslookup and it appears that the domain name *is* tied to the correct ip address | 03:28 |
| jrib | Grivvel: and you're sure it's the same machine? | 03:28 |
| Grivvel | jrib: If the ip address given from nslookup is the same, is it possible that it's actually connecting to a different machine? My credentials work, but could there be a mitm? | 03:29 |
| Grivvel | It seems a little weird that a mitm would only intercept by domain but not by ip address | 03:29 |
| jrib | Grivvel: can you verify you actually connect to the same machine? | 03:30 |
| elisa87 | jrib umount: /mnt/mount_x86: device is busy. (In some cases useful info about processes that use the device is found by lsof(8) or fuser(1)) do you know why I can't umount it? | 03:30 |
| Grivvel | jrib: How would I do that? | 03:30 |
| jrib | Grivvel: you could log in and look around | 03:30 |
| Grivvel | jrib: Yeah, it's definitely the same machine | 03:31 |
| jrib | elisa87: might you have a terminal open whose cwd is inside its mount point? | 03:31 |
| jrib | Grivvel: how do you know? | 03:31 |
| Grivvel | jrib: Exact same file system. | 03:31 |
| jrib | Grivvel: and it's not vanilla? | 03:31 |
| Grivvel | jrib: There are a couple empty directories | 03:32 |
| elisa87 | jrib: no that's the only terminal and the only tab in terminal I have now http://paste.ubuntu.com/5766688/ | 03:32 |
| Grivvel | Other than that, should be vanilla | 03:32 |
| jrib | Grivvel: you're probably just seeing proper ssh behavior (my guess). I don't know offhand the details of how host keys are setup, but if no one here can help, try #openssh | 03:33 |
| Grivvel | jrib: Will do, thanks! | 03:33 |

| === xubuntu is now known as Guest34045 | ||
| trism | elisa87: I think the issue is you didn't mount /proc/ to mount_x86/proc, you mounted it to mount_x86/ and then mounted /sys/ inside there | 03:40 |
| trism | elisa87: try umount /mnt/mount_x86/sys/; first then try to umount /mnt/mount_x86/ | 03:40 |
| elisa87 | trism I mounted /proc to /mnt/mount_x86/proc is it wrong? the same with dev and sys | 03:40 |
| trism | elisa87: your pastebin says otherwise | 03:41 |
| jeremiah_ | Is it possible to root /home into a separate partition, that windows can view/read/write to? | 03:41 |
| citric | jeremiah_, why would you want to do that? | 03:42 |
| elisa87 | trism you are right before umounting /mnt/mount_x86 I should have umounted /mnt/mount_x86/dev and sys and proc | 03:42 |
| EDocToor | Yes... the third install was successful.. I had to QParted and delete partition before I was able to re-install.. I guess there was a previously corrupted partition and Ubuntu refused to install on it... Thanks guys.. I have now successfully installed Ubuntu 12.04 | 03:42 |
| elisa87 | it worked now thanks trism | 03:42 |
| jeremiah_ | citric, Duel boot, and i want all my info to be able to be viewed from both oses | 03:42 |
| citric | jeremiah_, /home CAN be a seperate partition. | 03:42 |
| jeremiah_ | citric, I realize. But can it be viewed from windows as well? | 03:43 |
| citric | jeremiah_, yes. | 03:43 |
| citric | jeremiah_, you will need an application to view the partition, for example, Ext2Explorer | 03:44 |
| citric | jeremiah_, google. | 03:44 |
| jeremiah_ | citric, In windows or ubuntu? | 03:44 |
| citric | ... | 03:44 |
| citric | jeremiah_, what you are asking is very basic, please search google. | 03:45 |
| jeremiah_ | I'll google it.... | 03:45 |
| EDocToor | Is Ext2Explorer a windows application | 03:45 |
| jeremiah_ | EDocToor, Thank you. | 03:45 |
| citric | EDocToor, no, Ext2Explorer is used to read Ext2 partitions while you are in the Ext2 partition. | 03:45 |
| EDocToor | jeremiah_, does that mean that your /home on separate partition has to be formatted as EXT2 during the install.. or is EXT2 the default format | 03:47 |
| sesshomaru | isnt it ext4 now? | 03:47 |
| citric | Ext4 is the default, yes | 03:47 |
| sesshomaru | ok, because I see ext2 and the last time I implemented ext2 was on my 486 | 03:48 |
| mp19uy | I have a question related to environment variables: I want to be able to write ¨sublime_text¨ on console and open SublimeText2 instead of writing the full path. I know that there are 2 methods to do this, I could edit the environment variable PATH and add sublime_text path, but I also saw that another way to do the same is creating a symbolic link to sublime_text and placing it in /usr/bin. My question is, is one of these be | 03:48 |
| mp19uy | tter than the other or it is exactly the same and both are ¨correct¨ ways of doing what I want to do? | 03:48 |
| citric | sesshomaru, that doesn't mean much, I was just on my 486 today :) | 03:48 |
| sesshomaru | citric: SX or DX? I've got a 486SX/33 in my laptop | 03:49 |
| citric | SX | 03:49 |
| kostkon | mp19uy, or create an alias? do you think it would work? | 03:49 |
| citric | brb TIME FOR PUDDING | 03:49 |
| sesshomaru | citric: Very reliable machines | 03:49 |
| EDocToor | sesshomaru, so not the best method... better is to make a separate partition... just for "share" format it as EXT2 ... that way your normal /home isn't outdated | 03:50 |
| sesshomaru | ahh | 03:50 |
| mp19uy | kostkon, I do not know what alias are but I am reading about it now. I got both ideas from this: http://bit.ly/IH7OPo and this http://askubuntu.com/questions/141718/what-is-path-environment-variable-and-how-to-add-it | 03:52 |
| === KindTwo is now known as KindOne | ||
| EDocToor | mp19uy, $ env | 03:55 |
| EDocToor | to see list of vars | 03:55 |
| EDocToor | Creating a var... depends on why you are creating it | 03:56 |
| EDocToor | mp19uy, to see a var $ echo $var_name | 03:57 |
| mp19uy | My idea is to modify the PATH var, is for a compiler of modula-2 | 03:58 |
| === KindTwo is now known as KindOne | ||
| mp19uy | it has some commands like xc,xd,xcwork... and I want to be able to use these commands | 03:59 |
| mp19uy | but also, I was willing to be able to write in console ¨sublime_text¨ or st2 or something like that to open the text editor sublime text 2 | 04:01 |
| EDocToor | mp19uy, the PATH var gets loaded from many places.. hopefully some here can tell you the best place to edit the PATH=;;;;your_new_path | 04:02 |
| EDocToor | I don't want to give you bad advice | 04:02 |
| sethj | Isn't it supposed to be in ~/.profile? | 04:03 |
| EDocToor | I thought so.. but to see it cd ~ then ls -a | 04:04 |
| EDocToor | not sure | 04:04 |
| EDocToor | I looked and my .profile does not have a PATH statement | 04:04 |
| sethj | Hm. | 04:05 |
| mp19uy | ok, I mean, my problem is not about how to edit the path var, that is something I can google for sure, what I want to know if it is a ¨good practice¨ adding/modifying env vars when I want to do this kind of thing or is better to create symbolic links and place them in /usr/bin. | 04:05 |
| EDocToor | so I don't think so | 04:05 |
| tsimpson | ~/.profile is the correct place | 04:05 |
| sethj | EDocToor: Mine has a PATH statement... | 04:06 |
| sethj | tsimpson: Thanks. | 04:06 |
| EDocToor | tsimpson, and he would add the line ::: PATH=$PATH;/usr/path; | 04:06 |

| tsimpson | "PATH=/whatever:$PATH" or "PATH=$PATH:/whatever" | 04:07 |
| tsimpson | : is the separator character | 04:07 |
| tr0n | set ur terminal | 04:07 |

| wolter | tr0n, exactly | 06:14 |
| bhavesh | I was installing ccsm from terminal 2 days ago when there was a power cut. Now I cannot connect to the internet on ubuntu, whereas I can on windows 8. | 06:16 |
| bhavesh | Tried connecting a new network but didn't help | 06:16 |
| tr0n | u try with -H or -P? | 06:16 |
| akurilin | I think the answers is that at least in EC2 changing hostnames is mostly local to the machine and will not change the name of the server as far as the DNS server is concerned. Supposedly changing the hostname can cause problems down the line when some services start expecting it to match the actual name. | 06:16 |
| wolter | tr0n, tried with -h | 06:16 |
| tr0n | eww the W word | 06:16 |
| bhavesh | my network is DSL PPPoE | 06:16 |
| witheld | Okay, I installed pm-utils on my laptop. Bad idea, it crashes on suspend, including when I close the lid. So I removed pm-utils, but now, it still crashes when I close the lid | 06:17 |
| witheld | What do I have to remove to stop this | 06:17 |
| tr0n | whatever dependicies it used | 06:17 |
| tr0n | or tinker with your system settings | 06:19 |
| dr_willis | you can set what it does on lid close i recall. | 06:20 |
| witheld | I've purged everything, so, I'm lost as to what to do | 06:20 |
| witheld | the initrd still just turns the screen off without crashing, as I'd prefer | 06:21 |
| witheld | So it's some setting I don't know of that pm-utils changed and didn't put back | 06:21 |
| witheld | (outrageous) | 06:22 |
| dr_willis | ir you need to double check the users powersettings fir that user | 06:23 |
| dr_willis | test with a newly made user also | 06:23 |
| witheld | It's a minimal install, no dbus, no consolekit, none of that weird per-user stuff | 06:23 |
| dr_willis | no idea then. | 06:24 |
| lotuspsychje | how can i make a terminal icon with links2 jumping open google | 06:24 |
| wolter | terminal icon? | 06:24 |
| Kaidelong | I need to disable ACPI because my hardware shuts the screen off when the lid is closed but ubuntu completely screws up in software and thinks the lid is closed even when it is reopened and the system becomes unusable | 06:24 |
| dr_willis | lotuspsychje: make a launcher that runs xterm -e links2 giigle.com perhaps | 06:25 |
| lotuspsychje | wolter: well i installed links2, but i want it started from inside terminal, and create an icon for it | 06:25 |
| lotuspsychje | dr_willis: how i make that launcher | 06:25 |
| witheld | Ha ha, more ACPI issues, good luck. Well, Kaidelong , pass noacpi to the kernel at boot | 06:25 |
| dr_willis | or make a gnome-terminal profile to do it | 06:25 |
| bhavesh | when my DSL internet connection is not working only on ubuntu, how am I supposed to trace down the problem? | 06:26 |
| dr_willis | lotuspsychje: look at the gedit.desktop file for an example | 06:26 |
| lotuspsychje | dr_willis: ok tnx | 06:26 |
| dr_willis | lotuspsychje: askubuntu.com has guides also | 06:27 |
| tr0n | isnt elinks the successor to links? | 06:27 |
| dr_willis | bhavesh: your power failed while installing packages? | 06:27 |
| bhavesh | dr_willis: yes | 06:27 |

| husnainlatif | windows 7+ | 06:57 |
| dr_willis | ive seen some articals about sound equalizers for pulse. but im not sure one is included by default | 06:57 |
| tr0n | no M$ questions in here | 06:58 |
| aeon-ltd | depending on your speakers/headphones you should aim for neutral music is already eq'd, equalizing again should only be used to compensate or color to liking | 06:58 |
| dr_willis | omgubuntu or webupd8 may mention how to get one husnainlatif | 06:58 |
| aeon-ltd | fullstop after neutral | 06:58 |
| lvlingli | husnainlatif: I think system wide eq is not necessary | 06:59 |
| dr_willis | some players may have the feature for that player. | 06:59 |
| husnainlatif | y'know why i need it? coz i've low-quality headphones with knows bassboost built in and they give me a headache in ubuntu no matter what i play | 06:59 |
| husnainlatif | on windows however, if i turn on bassboost, everything sounds at least bearable. | 07:00 |
| dr_willis | you need to unboost them? | 07:00 |
| husnainlatif | with no* | 07:00 |
| husnainlatif | sorry bout typos | 07:00 |
| dr_willis | lack of base = headache? weird | 07:01 |

| aeon-ltd | how can it not? does it not work? | 07:02 |
| husnainlatif | it even messed up the whole sound driver thingy in ubuntu and i had to switch back to windows8 coz of that | 07:03 |
| aeon-ltd | ok | 07:03 |
| tr0n | $ellout | 07:03 |

The log says "Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration" and then "Fatal server error: no screens found". Any ideas? Monitor is IBM G74, card is GeForce 7300GS with the Nvidia 304 driver (which actually seems to boot according to the logs). This was all working fine for a long time until that reboot... | 07:40 |

| ditchwindows | gotwig: ahh i should've mentioned that hehe | 07:43 |
| Sik | ...oh, just Alt+F2, nevermind | 07:44 |

| gotwig | Sik, CTRL+ALT+F [put tty number here] | 07:45 |

| gotwig | ditchwindows, ok.. maybe you should download the image from the website, than select it . I can also recommend Linux Live USB Creator: http://www.linuxliveusb.com/ | 07:46 |
| Sik | gotwig: checking the nvidia-xconfig help right now (and given X can't load at all, I doubt startx is going to help) | 07:46 |
| ditchwindows | gotwig: i downloaded the image from the website, but ill also try the LiLiUSB | 07:47 |
| gotwig | orangerobot, yeah, its dash. strange | 07:48 |
| gotwig | ditchwindows, thanks for your efforts :) | 07:48 |
| Sik | OK going to try, if I log off this is me testing X (if I don't come back after a while assume I fixed this) | 07:48 |
| rand | can you just dd the iso image of Ubuntu onto a thumb drive and it will be bootable? | 07:49 |
| Ben64 | rand: yes | 07:49 |
| Sik | ...OK, nope, nvidia-xconfig didn't solve it | 07:49 |
| rand | Ben64, cool thanks | 07:49 |
| Ben64 | Sik: whats the problem | 07:50 |
| Sik | Oh, um, fun, now the nvidia-xconfig thing prevents the Nvidia driver from loading at all, great | 07:50 |
| Sik | Ben64: "Screen(s) found, but none has a usable configuration" It was working fine before rebooting a few hours ago :/ | 07:51 |
| gotwig | Sik, http://alexsleat.co.uk/2011/03/04/how-to-fix-fatal-server-error-no-screens-found-ubuntu/? | 07:51 |
| gotwig | Sik, http://alexsleat.co.uk/2011/03/04/how-to-fix-fatal-server-error-no-screens-found-ubuntu/ =) | 07:51 |
| Ben64 | Sik: how did you install nvidia? | 07:51 |
| Sik | Ben64: through the additional driver screen, as usual :v It was working all fine before I rebooted, I guess some automatic update broke it | 07:52 |
| Beetle559 | I've just had an incredibly frustrating six hours with secure boot. I took all the right steps but no matter what I did I couldn't get my brand new lenovo p500 to boot from usb or dvd. That was with Mint. I know Ubuntu has uefi support so hopefully I can get this piece of...hardware to work | 07:52 |
| Sik | gotwig: bit.ly that or something? I have to type it by hand and I'm on irssi | 07:52 |
| gotwig | Sik, you can also try to just remove the xorg.conf file, so it maybe gets recreated.. | 07:52 |
| gotwig | Sik, yeah, sry | 07:52 |
| Ben64 | you don't need an xorg.conf | 07:52 |
| jarodvander | hi. is there an german speaking channel for ubuntu help? | 07:53 |
| Sik | That was the default before I ran nvidia-xconfig right now... | 07:53 |
| Ben64 | !de | jarodvander | 07:53 |
| ubottu | jarodvander: In den meisten Ubuntu-Kanälen wird nur Englisch gesprochen. Für deutschsprachige Hilfe besuche bitte #ubuntu-de, #kubuntu-de, #edubuntu-de oder #ubuntu-at. Einfach "/join #ubuntu-de" eingeben. Danke für Dein Verständnis! | 07:53 |
| jarodvander | thx! | 07:53 |
| Sik | OK removing xorg.conf didn't fix anything | 07:54 |
| gotwig | Sik, have you changed your monitor setup? | 07:54 |
| Sik | No | 07:54 |
| Sik | I haven't touched anything, in fact | 07:54 |
| Sik | Which is why I assume some security update may have broken it (I have those set to install automatically) | 07:54 |
| gotwig | Sik, well.. you can try dpkg-reconfigure packagename to reconfigure the relevant packages | 07:55 |
| gotwig | Sik, does nivou* work with your graphics card? | 07:55 |
| Ben64 | Sik: can you pastebin lsmod | 07:56 |
| c3n9 | Is anyone here familiar with OpenVPN? :-) | 07:56 |
| Sik | Ben64: on terminal, I can't use the clipboard >.< gotwing: Nouveau? Never tried, but then again the issue seems to be with X itself, not with the driver. | 07:56 |
| c3n9 | I'm having a problem with the DNS side of things, thus I can't web-browse when connected to mine (server is Ubuntu). | 07:56 |
| Ben64 | Sik: lsmod | pastebinit | 07:57 |
| jarodvander | hi again | 07:57 |
| Sik | Ben64: paste.ubuntu.com/5767078 | 07:58 |
| Ben64 | Sik: do you have some sort of weird set up? like dual gpu or something | 07:59 |
| jarodvander | I wanna activate applets in unity. have to go with "dconf" to "desktop-unity-panel" ... but there isn't an entry called "panel" ... any hints? | 07:59 |
| Sik | No. The most unusual I can think of is having the integrated sound chip and a discrete card, but nothing else | 07:59 |
| jeevanus | is there any package to search a particular file or directory? | 07:59 |
| jeevanus | i don't have the option with my filemanager | 08:00 |
| Sik | You could argue the hardware is old though (again: monitor is IBM G74, though it does seem to support EDID) | 08:00 |
| Integrated | stop saying integrated guys LOL | 08:00 |
| Integrated | i keep coming back here xD | 08:00 |
| gotwig | Integrated, change your name and leave the country :D | 08:00 |
| Integrated | whyyy | 08:00 |
| Integrated | this is the best name everr | 08:00 |
| gotwig | because its so much more integrated | 08:00 |
| Sik | Not my fault you have the same name as some piece of hardware! :P | 08:01 |
| gotwig | call yourself Integrated®© | 08:01 |
| Integrated | lol.. | 08:01 |
| Integrated | i was just browsing the web for a new mechanical keyboard | 08:02 |
| ditchwindows | gotwig: hey mate, that USB creater worked well thanks! | 08:02 |
| Mark___ | Integrated: lol | 08:02 |
| jarodvander | can somebody help me please? | 08:02 |
| Mark___ | We should get like more integrated circuits with everything. | 08:02 |
| gotwig | ditchwindows, no problem :X have a nice weekend =) | 08:02 |
| Sik | Base64: also you may want to ignore the "floppy" entry in that list... I outright disconnected the floppy drive XD (not like that should matter) | 08:02 |
| Integrated | i think people are doing it on purpose now... | 08:03 |
| gotwig | jarodvander, what do you exactly want to search , and where? | 08:03 |
| gotwig | jarodvander, have you tried gnome-search-utility | 08:03 |
| jarodvander | gotwig I wanna activate applets in unity. have to go with "dconf" to "desktop-unity-panel" ... but there isn't an entry called "panel" ... any hints? | 08:03 |
| gotwig | jarodvander, oh yeah right. Applets. What do you mean by that? The old legacies from gnome 2 ? | 08:04 |
| jarodvander | yes | 08:04 |
| jarodvander | is there any gui, to manage my applets an add this to the panel? | 08:04 |
| jarodvander | add them | 08:05 |
| husnainlatif | switching OS | 08:07 |
| gotwig | jarodvander, there is no support for this | 08:07 |
| gotwig | jarodvander, I dont even know how to do it in 13.04 :/ But IMHO it was a good decision | 08:07 |
| gotwig | jarodvander, it seems there is a whitelist in dconf | 08:08 |
| jarodvander | ohm.. i successfully added sysmonitor to the panel, it works, but i want to have a gui, isn't it possible? | 08:09 |
| jarodvander | yeah, but where i can find the whitelist? | 08:09 |
| jarodvander | is there an file anywhere? | 08:09 |
| gotwig | jarodvander, some guys wrote on the internetz that the list is hardcoded | 08:09 |
| ditchwindows | is it ideal to encrypt your home folder? - this just popped up when installing. | 08:09 |
| gordonjcp | ditchwindows: probably not | 08:09 |
| gordonjcp | ditchwindows: if you really, really don't want people poking through your files it can help | 08:10 |
| gotwig | ditchwindows, when you lose the key, you lose all your data if you forget your password | 08:10 |
| ditchwindows | gordonjcp: in before NSA? lol | 08:10 |
| gordonjcp | ditchwindows: it makes things slower | 08:10 |
| gordonjcp | as gotwig if you forget the key your data is gone | 08:10 |
| gordonjcp | if you have any disk problems, your data is gone | 08:10 |
| jarodvander | hmm | 08:10 |
| Mark___ | If you have any disk problems, just email backups@nsa.gov? | 08:11 |
| gordonjcp | with an unencrypted partition you can usually get *something* back when your disk fails | 08:11 |
| gotwig | jarodvander, http://www.webupd8.org/2013/05/how-to-get-systray-whitelist-back-in.html | 08:11 |
| ditchwindows | gordonjcp: hmm, i never tend to lose my password[s], what do you mean it makes things slower? | 08:12 |
| jarodvander | gotwig thx, i will look | 08:12 |
| weemann | hi | 08:12 |
| savio | Hi | 08:12 |
| rigo88 | hi. if i installed the system with uefi, and i had to exchange the mainboard, than i have to reinstall the system? (the mainboard is just the same typ.) | 08:14 |
| bekks | rigo88: No. | 08:14 |
| bekks | rigo88: You should backup everything, thats "all". | 08:14 |
| === _BJFreeman is now known as BJfreeman | ||
| rigo88 | than do u have any idea why my system does not start? i have a secondary hdd what contains an "old" system. and that boots up, no matter that the ssd is set up as primary. | 08:15 |
| rigo88 | dont have any clue whats wrong. | 08:15 |
| bekks | rigo88: uefi secure mode enabled. | 08:15 |
| rigo88 | in the bios? | 08:15 |
| weemann | my laptop has AMD 4200 graphic chip. Previous version Ubuntu run fine but latest i cannot use AMD graphic driver due to xorg update. | 08:15 |
| gotwig | rigo88, yeah, you can check it, if its enabled, in the bios | 08:15 |
| weemann | Laptop runs 15c cooler running proprietary AMD driver | 08:16 |
| weemann | are there any laptops that have removable graphics cards at a sensible price sub £400 ? | 08:18 |
| rigo88 | im checking it. u mean the old board or in the new? | 08:19 |
| bekks | weemann: There arent even reasonable laprops with removable graphic cards at all. | 08:21 |
| hotmedal | I have a bcm4313 wifi card on my Lenovo G580, I can connect only to unsecured wifi networks. I'm using the "wl" drivers. brmcsmac is blacklisted. Any solutions? | 08:21 |
| bekks | weemann: unload wl, load brmcsmac | 08:21 |
| spyder | on running chroot /mnt/one /bin/bash in live cd i get this error | 08:21 |
| spyder | chroot: failed to run command `/bin/bash': Exec format error | 08:21 |
| spyder | how do i correct it? | 08:21 |
| hotmedal | bekks: whoah is that for me? | 08:21 |
| bekks | spyder: You are using a 32bit live cd for chrooting into a 64bit environment, which is technically impossible. | 08:22 |
| bekks | hotmedal: yeah, sorry. | 08:22 |
| rigo88 | i dont have such a thing. | 08:22 |
| rigo88 | nowhere. | 08:22 |
| hotmedal | but using brmcsmac like I was before, I couldn't even see those networks | 08:22 |
| rigo88 | gotwig: any ide? if the bios recognises the ssd than it is... definetely plugged in right? | 08:24 |
| lvlingli | When I upgrade my ubuntu to the latest release, I can't run my virtual machine by vbox. | 08:24 |
| MonkeyDust | lvlingli yes, i did it | 08:24 |
| lvlingli | Anyone can help me? | 08:24 |
| bekks | lvlingli: Then reinstall the vbox kernel modules. | 08:24 |
| gotwig | rigo88, maybe the uefi partition is on the wrong disk..? | 08:24 |
| bekks | lvlingli: How to do so, is described in the vbox manual. | 08:24 |
| MonkeyDust | lvlingli do you have virtual machines now, and you're afraid they'll be lost after upgrading? | 08:24 |
| lvlingli | bekks: THX,I 'll try. | 08:24 |
| gotwig | rigo88, do you know that there is a package called "bootrepair" which can help you to repair your boot setup? | 08:25 |
| gotwig | it works with uefi | 08:25 |
| rigo88 | gotwig: like i saied everything is just the same. i pulled out the cables from the old board plugged them in to the new. in the same slots. :) | 08:25 |
| rigo88 | ok. if my system does not start up how could i use that? | 08:25 |
| rigo88 | live cd? | 08:25 |
| lvlingli | I can't run this '/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup' | 08:25 |
| gotwig | rigo88, yeah, something like that | 08:25 |
| hotmedal | rigo88: it's called boot-repair and it worked wonders for me | 08:25 |
| bekks | lvlingli: Then uninstall the ubuntu version of vbox and install the official vbox version from the official website. you will not lose any vms. | 08:26 |
| gotwig | rigo88, I think you are just missing the right UEFI boot entry | 08:26 |
| rigo88 | can it be damaged somehow? | 08:26 |
| gotwig | rigo88, you can find it out for your own, and add it as an entry in the BIOS... but that is kind of some work | 08:26 |
| lvlingli | bekks: OK | 08:27 |
| lvlingli | bekks: thanks | 08:27 |
| gotwig | rigo88, I dont think so ... :O | 08:27 |
| gotwig | rigo88, do you know how uefi works? | 08:27 |
| hotmedal | bekks: any ideas for my wifi problem? | 08:27 |
| rigo88 | i started up the system tomorrow morning, the board just came, i shut down the system, put in the new board and it does not work now. | 08:27 |
| rigo88 | gotwig: actually no. i dont. | 08:27 |
| rigo88 | but im interested :D | 08:27 |
| gotwig | rigo88, and that is why ubuntu is awesome... | 08:28 |
| bekks | hotmedal: No, sorry. | 08:28 |
| gotwig | under other systems its such a mess to setup uefi ... | 08:28 |
| hotmedal | ok | 08:28 |
| Beetle559 | I've been having uefi nightmares all night | 08:28 |
| gotwig | rigo88, basicly there is a EFI partition (typically formated as a FAT32 partition with 200 MB of space), which hols different .efi files and such. You start a .efi file from uefi, and that boots the system. You would have to find the right .efi file, and add it as a UEFI boot entry to the bios | 08:29 |
| Beetle559 | Gave up on mint in the end and hoping for success with ubuntu | 08:29 |
| gotwig | *holds | 08:29 |
| gotwig | you can only start .efi files from UEFI. | 08:29 |
| MonkeyDust | Beetle559 yes, uefi is a pain | 08:29 |
| MonkeyDust | !uefi | 08:29 |
| ubottu | UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware, it is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI | 08:29 |
| praveen | hi all..!!! one of my front audio jack in ubuntu (the right one only) is working but the left one is not. i have already installed gnome alsa mixer. please help. | 08:29 |
| gotwig | the funny thing is, that UEFI still calls the setup of the motherboard "BIOS" | 08:30 |
| gotwig | its more a replacement for MBR I guess, instead of BIOS | 08:30 |
| gotwig | there still is a bios... | 08:30 |
| bekks | gotwig: Because that point is configuring the basic input/output system ;) | 08:30 |
| bekks | the MBR exists with UEFI too, since the MBR is the first sector of a harddisk. | 08:31 |
| gotwig | if there would be only UEFI... the world would go down =) | 08:31 |
| gotwig | bekks, ok... | 08:31 |
| gordonjcp | UEFI rocks | 08:31 |
| gordonjcp | BIOSes need to die | 08:31 |
| gotwig | rigo88, so, you can try boot-repair (which I believe adds a UEFI entry) or add the entry for your own | 08:31 |
| Beetle559 | I enabled legacy, enabled boot from usb, i created a livedvd, I did everything I should + or - 2352352345 Google searches. Ended up in the fetal position rocking myself crying "Why God, why"? | 08:31 |
| gordonjcp | they were crap 30 years ago and they're crap now | 08:31 |
| Beetle559 | That's uefi | 08:31 |
| gotwig | gordonjcp, -..- play somewhere else | 08:31 |
| gotwig | Beetle559, which PC do you got | 08:32 |
| gordonjcp | gotwig: you're fairly new to this whole PC thing, aren't you? | 08:32 |
| Beetle559 | lenovo p500 win8 preinstalled | 08:32 |
| gotwig | Beetle559, I think your problem is, that you want it to work, but you dont know how UEFI works | 08:32 |
| gotwig | because just MBR was much more easy. | 08:32 |
| gordonjcp | otherwise you'd realise what a shambles the PC BIOS is | 08:32 |
| gordonjcp | oh, sorry, this is not #u-ot | 08:33 |
| hotmedal | Beetle559: I, on the other hand ran boot-repair from the ubuntu liveUSB and solved everything | 08:33 |
| gotwig | Beetle559, at least for my system, I had to do a BIOS firmware upgrade. in the normal firmware which ships with the PC, there was UEFI, which couldnt boot anything different than win8 ... I found that out at 2 AM in the morning. | 08:33 |
| gotwig | Zenbook UX32VD here | 08:33 |
| rigo88 | i.c. i check after. | 08:33 |
| Beetle559 | Sorry, that was trying to install Mint. I'm downloading ubuntu now | 08:33 |
| gordonjcp | gotwig: buggy UEFI? | 08:33 |
| hotmedal | Beetle559: good luck :D | 08:34 |
| gordonjcp | gotwig: on PC hardware there is no restriction on what UEFI can boot | 08:34 |
| gotwig | gordonjcp, I dont know. Nowadays vendors ship all the time corrupt software, and later do patches to fix the most general things. | 08:34 |
| SeanHosie54 | does any one know if you can remove the encryption password on the installation ? | 08:35 |
| gotwig | Beetle559, you need to know how it works, if you want to work with it. So easy. | 08:35 |
| shadej | hey guys | 08:35 |
| shadej | how do i add rewrite_modulte on apache2 after installation? | 08:35 |
| gordonjcp | gotwig: I guess a PC manufacturer *could* sell a PC without the ability to disable booting non-Windows OSes, but that's possible with the BIOS too | 08:35 |
| gordonjcp | gotwig: IBM tried that about 20 years ago and it nearly sunk them | 08:35 |
| Beetle559 | I'm hoping it will be easy with ubuntu. Mint doesn't have much uefi support | 08:35 |
| gotwig | gordonjcp, btw. I am not talking about secure boot here. | 08:36 |
| gotwig | maybe, there just was no way to boot UEFI via USB | 08:36 |
| gotwig | Beetle559, how do you know that. Its basicly the same | 08:36 |
| gordonjcp | gotwig: aha, no | 08:37 |
| gordonjcp | gotwig: you load a UEFI boot loader and the ISO on to your USB stick, same as you do for a Mac | 08:37 |
| Beetle559 | Still, it didn't seem right. I couldn't find an example of anyone else with the same problem. Others have enabled legacy mode and booted from usb/dvd no problem. | 08:37 |
| gordonjcp | gotwig: dead easy | 08:37 |
| gotwig | gordonjcp, ? I dont know whats the context | 08:37 |
| gordonjcp | gotwig: booting UEFI-only hardware from USB | 08:38 |
| gotwig | Beetle559, have you tried to use a new firmware? | 08:38 |
| Beetle559 | Did an MD5 check, the file was okay. Double checked with MagicISO, the file was bootable. | 08:38 |
| gotwig | gordonjcp, I told you that my firmware wasnt able to do it. | 08:38 |
| Beetle559 | New firmware will be next | 08:38 |
| bekks | "uefi only" doesnt say anything about "secure mode enabled/disabled" at all. | 08:38 |
| hotmedal | Question: why is wifi on ubuntu so damned buggy? | 08:38 |
| bekks | hotmedal: Because its not. | 08:39 |

| thesignal | hi, i just noticed a mistake on the ubuntu website where i can download an iso file | 08:40 |
| Beetle559 | Do you lose your secure boot signatures if you "flash bios" (or uefi equivalent)? | 08:40 |
| thesignal | who should i talk to, reporting this? | 08:40 |
| hotmedal | gotwig: it's a bcm4313, I already said. And I also told him about the steps I have taken to make the networks appear. But I cnnot connect to secure networks | 08:40 |
| gotwig | Beetle559, no way. | 08:41 |
| gotwig | Beetle559, nowadays Windows 8 serials are integrated into UEFI, you no longer get a key code | 08:41 |
| bekks | !b43 | hotmedal | 08:41 |
| ubottu | hotmedal: Help with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx | 08:41 |
| Beetle559 | So I can update the 'bios' and and won't lose access to win8? | 08:41 |

| gotwig | I think I better go to launch.. | 08:42 |
| hotmedal | bekks thanks, I folowed steps in forums | 08:42 |
| gordonjcp | oh great, apt has got itself in a knot *again* | 08:42 |
| gordonjcp | E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution). | 08:42 |
| gotwig | gordonjcp, whats the problem | 08:43 |
| azi` | hm.. is there a way to make pipes in paralel? as in foo | bar making foo and bar run as parallel processes? | 08:43 |
| gordonjcp | so, run that, it wants to download and install 121MB of packages | 08:43 |
| gordonjcp | I don't want it to do that though, I want it to uninstall a bunch of stuff | 08:43 |
| gotwig | gordonjcp, lol ^^ | 08:43 |
| Beetle559 | I'm still stuck in bios think. Is "updating the firmware" analagous to flashing bios? | 08:43 |
| gordonjcp | gotwig: nuke and pave time | 08:44 |
| thesignal | I want to report a problem on the ubuntu-website, who should i talk to, to report the issue? | 08:44 |
| gotwig | Beetle559, To boot windows, you just need the right boot entry | 08:44 |
| elixir | Hi, I use Ununtu 12.10 and more often these days, my mouse stops working all of a sudde, any help please, I am not able to fix this. | 08:44 |
| Beetle559 | right | 08:44 |
| gotwig | Beetle559, all BIOS/UEFI stuff is typically integrated into the BIOS/UEFi thing, or into the UEFI System Partition | 08:44 |
| === life is now known as Guest87109 | ||
| gotwig | Beetle559, a boot entry consists of a name for the entry, the device its for, and the path to the right .efi file | 08:44 |
| iceroot | thesignal: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-website/+filebug | 08:44 |
| bekks | azi`: a pipe always runs in parallel. | 08:45 |
| gotwig | Beetle559, I dont think that a firmware upgrade is going to delete you the entry, and the system partition | 08:45 |
| rand | Elixir, wireless mouse? check the batteries? | 08:45 |
| Beetle559 | Wait. UEFI software is stored on the hdd? | 08:45 |
| gotwig | Beetle559, Yes it is is stored even on a partition, unlike MBR/BIOS | 08:45 |
| elixir | rand: no, the cursor of mouse, Mousepad nt working | 08:45 |
| gotwig | Beetle559, typically its the first partition on the hdd, its formated as fat32 | 08:45 |
| gotwig | (for uefi windows 8 vendor dudes) | 08:46 |
| thesignal | iceroot: ty | 08:46 |
| gotwig | under macs its formated as HFS+ | 08:46 |
| elixir | rand: even right now its fixed at a point on my screen, I've to work with keyboard only | 08:46 |
| elixir | rand: this problem does't occur on Windows | 08:46 |
| gotwig | Beetle559, now, every bootloader should in best case create a directory for his own bootloader, place the relevant .efi files there, and than add a boot entry to UEFI. Thats it. | 08:46 |
| rand | elixir, so it's a laptop? | 08:46 |
| gotwig | Beetle559, The path for the ubuntu .efi file is known. You can try to do the boot entry for your own, if your BIOS allows to add bootentries | 08:47 |
| Sik | OK, so, still clueless with my problem. Anybody here who can help me? X complains that no screens have an usable configuration :/ Worked fine until I rebooted some hours ago. And no, I didn't change the hardware setup, nor do I have anything unusual there. Monitor: IBM G74. Video: GeForce 7300 GS. Using Ubuntu 12.04 64-bit. | 08:47 |
| gotwig | Beetle559, its a path something like "EFI\UBUNTU\herecomestheefifile.efi | 08:47 |
| gotwig | " | 08:47 |
| elixir | rand: yes | 08:47 |
| gotwig | Beetle559, if you want, I can tell you the proper path | 08:48 |
| Beetle559 | Great info gotwig. TIL | 08:48 |

| ditchwindows | i just installed Ubuntu 13.04 on my second pc and it's acting REAL slow | 08:48 |
| gotwig | ditchwindows, which graphics cards are you using, Sir? | 08:49 |
| tr0n | try a diverative like linbutu | 08:49 |
| ditchwindows | gotwig: Nvidia 6150 onboard | 08:49 |
| Beetle559 | I'm still downloading ubuntu, my problems were with mint wich has no uefi support right now. Further, why I couldn't boot from legacy mode is still a mystery to me. | 08:49 |
| Sik | ditchwindows: ...disable compositing if you can | 08:49 |
| gotwig | Beetle559, the full path for a 64 bit ubuntu should be the following: "EFI\ubuntu\grubx64.efi" | 08:50 |
| rigo88 | i cant apt-get install boot-repair | 08:50 |
| gotwig | Beetle559, you need to select the right harddisk at the BIOS as well | 08:50 |
| gotwig | rigo88, have you read my text? | 08:50 |
| tr0n | u use sudo rig? | 08:50 |
| ditchwindows | Sik: okay, ill give that a try | 08:51 |
| rigo88 | im root.. | 08:51 |
| rigo88 | gotwig: i think.. :) | 08:51 |

| Elegant | fuck you? | 08:51 |
| rand | Elixir, I have no idea wish I could help | 08:52 |
| gotwig | Elegant, watch out dude o.0 there are kids everywhere | 08:52 |
| * gotwig asks himself why he has to google everything together. | 08:52 | |
| Beetle559 | thanks gotwig, I'm copying all this down and getting a better grasp of uefi. I'll make my own boot entry for science. I may as well accept uefi is going to be around for a while | 08:53 |
| rigo88 | ohci_hcd hc died | 08:53 |
| rigo88 | whats this... :D | 08:53 |
| EMPHASIS_ | Some people have no idea of propriety. | 08:53 |
| rigo88 | should i send back the board where it came from? | 08:53 |
| gotwig | Beetle559, it basicly is not that easy :/ If you know where the .efi file is | 08:54 |
| gotwig | *dont know ;D | 08:54 |
| gotwig | there is no file browser in BIOS :( thats so sad | 08:54 |
| Beetle559 | Learning that it's all stored on the hdd and not it's own chip helped a lot | 08:54 |
| Sik | ditchwindows: if I recall correctly there was a driver regression at some point that made compositing horribly slow (happened to me), so the non-compositing shells turned out to be faster. That's why I mentioned it. Nvidia's fault :/ | 08:54 |
| elixir | rand: just found the solution here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/66907/touchpad-not-working-on-msi-u130-after-login-in , thanks for concern ;-) | 08:55 |
| gotwig | Beetle559, yeah.. like I said Fat32 for windows 8 vendors, hfs+ for mac os x (lol, I am a hackintosh dude ^^) | 08:55 |
| Beetle559 | That makes updating a lot easier anyway | 08:55 |
| MonkeyDust | gotwig you have to google it, because you're not yet familiar with it | 08:55 |
| gotwig | MonkeyDust, no, because I know what I need.. but not exactly | 08:55 |
| gotwig | my brain is very bad at saving info I dont regulary need | 08:56 |
| gotwig | but who cares :O | 08:56 |
| === gotwig is now known as gotwig-afk | ||
| ditchwindows | Sik: where would i begin to disable it? i've tried gconftool-2 -s --type bool /apps/metacity/general/compositing_manager false | 08:57 |
| Sik | ditchwindows: in the login screen, just choose another shell there | 08:59 |
| Sik | Not all the shells use compositing | 09:00 |
| === marlinc|away is now known as marlinc | ||
| ditchwindows | Sik: im at the login screen right now, i have my user name top left, password login, guest, remote login, top right corner onscreen keyboard, internet connections, volume, clock, suspend, shutdown, reset - i don't see anything about the shell selection | 09:02 |
| rigo88 | well i found the efi file... but it is binary. | 09:02 |
| opasnost | I've been having a problem with facebook ubuntu is not able to gain access | 09:02 |
| Sik | ditchwindows: check the buttons, one of them chooses the shell for the current session (and no, I don't think it has a name) | 09:03 |
| Sik | ditchwindows: oh right, select your user, then when it prompts the password there it lets you choose the shell | 09:03 |
| rigo88 | ill try with live cd if i come back. now i have to go thanks for the support! | 09:04 |
| rigo88 | bye | 09:04 |
| ditchwindows | Sik: oy vey, lol i don't even see that even when i select it.. fml lol - i swear! | 09:05 |
| Sik | ditchwindows: if I could look I'd try to help, but I'm not even using the default login screen :/ (and I'm stuck with the terminal right now because X refuses to boot, so that won't help) | 09:06 |
| Sik | ditchwindows: look next to the button that lets you select the keyboard layout and such? Otherwise at a corner of the login prompt... Otherwise no idea, I can't tell what's in your login screen x_x; It should be somewhere there though, I swear. Otherwise you can't change shells. | 09:07 |
| dementeddemigod | Sik/ditchwindows. I'm running 13.04 and I don't think the option to change shells is on the screen anymore :( I just tried in a VM and it down't stand out where it used to be | 09:09 |
| dementeddemigod | * used to be there so you could change between unity 2/3d from memory | 09:09 |
| opasnost | looks like all I had to do was log out of facebook in my web browser completely . Then go through with the log in through Facebook | 09:10 |
| kostkon_ | dementeddemigod: it now appears only when youve installed additional DEs | 09:11 |
| Sik | So basically dementeddemigod needs to install the other shells? | 09:11 |
| dementeddemigod | koston: cheers, nice to know | 09:11 |
| Sik | Well, at least that makes more sense | 09:12 |
| dementeddemigod | * make that kostkon_ ;) | 09:12 |
| praveen | hi all..!!! one of my front audio jack in ubuntu (the right one only) is working but the left one is not. i have already installed gnome alsa mixer. please help. | 09:22 |
| Sik | Well, since my problem still is not solved: what can make X sudden of all decide that the screen is not usable? I didn't change the hardware nor the drivers and they had worked just fine until today. Any ideas? | 09:23 |
| dementeddemigod | Sik: sorry got nothing. I had it happen to me in 11.04/11.10 (can't remember which) and never resolved it. Ended up re-installing :( | 09:26 |
| Sik | :/ | 09:26 |
| ditchwindows | Sik: is it possible to Disable compiz using compiz config manager? | 09:27 |
| Sik | Never tried | 09:27 |
| ditchwindows | Sik: is it the Unity? | 09:28 |
| Sik | Also with 11.x the issue I had was compositing would make the shell hang, rather than just slow down... Another reason why I never enable compositing -_-' | 09:28 |
| Sik | Never used Unity, sticking to GNOME | 09:28 |
| ditchwindows | Sik: me neither lol | 09:28 |
| Sik | But basically the only fix is sticking to the non-accelerated shells :/ | 09:29 |
| ditchwindows | Sik: i personally prefered GNOME over unity. | 09:29 |
| Sik | Also ugh, I'd rather not have to reinstall Ubuntu -_-' (and moreover, first of all figure out why X may stop working sudden of all - I wonder if some update outright made it incompatible with my monitor, in which case I'm completely screwed) | 09:30 |
| MonkeyDust | ditchwindows unity is a shell over gnome, you probably mean gnome2 | 09:30 |
| === ivan_ is now known as Guest77746 | ||
| Guest77746 | test | 09:31 |
| MonkeyDust | Guest77746 it works, you're in | 09:31 |
| Sik | MonkeyDust: I said GNOME :P But yeah, though there's also GNOME3, which is why I didn't say a number | 09:31 |
| ditchwindows | MonkeyDust: i've never had to experience the unity crap, and persoanlly i hate it already lol | 09:31 |
| Sik | Does anybody know if Ubuntu dropped support for some kinds of monitors? | 09:32 |
| ditchwindows | awesome disabled Unity to default, now when i rebooted there is NOTHING LOL just desktop.. :( | 09:32 |
| ditchwindows | so.. 13.04 is lame, can't change shells and such from what i can see | 09:33 |
| Ben64 | ditchwindows: yes you can, and what do you mean by "shells" | 09:34 |
| bekks | ditchwindows: You can change user login shells as you like in every ubuntu. | 09:34 |
| Sik | Ben64: do you still have that link you sent me earlier? (shortened please, I need to type it by hand and IRC advances too fast) | 09:35 |
| ditchwindows | well its a secret on this version cause its hiding on me | 09:35 |
| Sik | ditchwindows: I wonder if it uninstalled all other shells >.>' | 09:35 |
| Ben64 | Sik: i didn't send you one | 09:35 |
| k1l | ditchwindows: are you done with your unity rants? | 09:35 |
| bekks | ditchwindows: Define "its" and please state what you actually want to do. | 09:35 |
| ditchwindows | im running Nvidia 6150 onboard, and its lagging tits | 09:35 |
| Sik | OK who did then? | 09:35 |
| Sik | :/ | 09:35 |
| Ben64 | Sik: if you know anything the url contained i can search my logs for it | 09:35 |
| Sik | Yeah, why X stopped working on Ubuntu | 09:36 |
| Ben64 | Sik: i mean like a phrase or something that was in the url | 09:36 |
| ditchwindows | k1l: i've ran ubuntu with earlier versions, i was able to change the shell or whatever it's called, but with this one i can't. | 09:36 |
| Sik | Ack, don't remember the exact phrase, it was from Ubuntu's own site though :X | 09:36 |
| Ben64 | ditchwindows: ask a question instead of ranting and you might be able to get an answer | 09:36 |
| k1l | ditchwindows: which shell? | 09:36 |
| bekks | ditchwindows: You can always change a user login shell. As you can change your desktop environment. | 09:36 |
| Ace | is there any feedback on installing eclipse latest version on Ubuntu 13.04 ? | 09:37 |
| Ben64 | <Sik> Ben64: do you still have that link you sent me earlier? (shortened please, I need to type it by hand and IRC advances t | 09:37 |
| k1l | ditchwindows: what do you want to achieve? | 09:37 |
| ditchwindows | anything that wont lag | 09:37 |
| Ben64 | uh... wrong paste... Jun 15 2013 00:51:38 <gotwig>Sik, http://alexsleat.co.uk/2011/03/04/how-to-fix-fatal-server-error-no-screens-found-ubuntu/ | 09:37 |
| k1l | ditchwindows: you mean you want another desktop? | 09:37 |
| ditchwindows | i just want to use ubuntu without it lagging, that's all | 09:37 |
| MonkeyDust | ditchwindows lxde and xfce are fast and popular | 09:37 |
| ditchwindows | like when you're navigating it's VERY SLOW, but once your in an application and such it works fine | 09:38 |
| MonkeyDust | ditchwindows http://i.imgur.com/3N5f6.jpg | 09:38 |
| Sik | OK managed to copy it somehow XD | 09:38 |
| k1l | ditchwindows: so install lubuntu-desktop or the xubuntu-desktop | 09:38 |
| ditchwindows | Gnome2 would be ideal | 09:38 |
| MonkeyDust | ditchwindows fallback-session is very similar to gnome2 | 09:39 |
| k1l | gnome2 is dead, ditchwindows | 09:39 |
| k1l | you should have gotten the memo | 09:39 |
| ditchwindows | k1l: why's that? | 09:40 |
| k1l | ditchwindows: ask gnome why they stopped with it. | 09:40 |
| Sik | Damn, the backup xorg.conf is broken too :( | 09:40 |
| Sik | Er failsafe | 09:40 |
| Ben64 | Sik: what version ubuntu? | 09:40 |
| Sik | 12.04 64-bit | 09:41 |
| Sik | (yes, the LTS one :P) | 09:41 |
| dementeddemigod | ditchwindows: there is a gnome DE installable directly from ubuntu software centre. I presume it's v3 | 09:41 |
| Ben64 | Sik: are you on another computer right now, or what? | 09:41 |
| dementeddemigod | ditchwindows: you've probably already answered this but, what version are you running and how much RAM do you have? | 09:42 |
| ditchwindows | dementeddemigod: Ubuntu 13.04 - 64bit, 4GB | 09:42 |
| Sik | Ben64: on this one! Stuck with the terminal :( | 09:42 |
| dementeddemigod | lol, fair enough | 09:42 |
| dementeddemigod | not a memory issue then. I've only had unity crawl when it's been in a VM with way too little memory | 09:43 |
| Sik | That's also why I can't copypaste links and see images :/ | 09:43 |
| Ben64 | dementeddemigod: rename /etc/X11/xorg.conf to something else, then do "sudo service lightdm start" | 09:43 |
| Sik | (also that this is the only system in the entire house connected to internet is not helping) | 09:43 |
| Ben64 | wrong tab, sorry dementeddemigod | 09:43 |
| Ben64 | Sik: that one's for you | 09:43 |
| dementeddemigod | Ben64, no worries ;) I'm running 3 different 13.04 boxes and don't have any DE problems ;) | 09:44 |
| ditchwindows | EXFCE doesn't look too shabby, if it will work with my current system | 09:44 |
| Ben64 | xfce works with everything | 09:44 |
| Sik | Ben64: erm... and then? (startx still fails, mind you) | 09:44 |
| statl | ditchwindows: If gnome 2 is ideal for you, take a look at mate. | 09:44 |
| Ben64 | Sik: startx isn't the right way to start x, don't listen to it's name | 09:45 |
| Ben64 | mate isn't supported here | 09:45 |
| Sik | Well I'm using it to tell if X is even able to boot at all | 09:45 |
| Sik | It keeps throwing out the same error | 09:45 |
| Ben64 | thats not really a reliable test | 09:45 |
| Ben64 | sudo service lightdm start | 09:45 |
| Sik | Already did | 09:45 |
| Ben64 | thats the correct way | 09:45 |
| statl | Ben64: But we can at least tell him about its existence? | 09:45 |
| Sik | Stuck at after starting MIDI emulation | 09:46 |
| Ben64 | gnome 2 is dead. just let it die | 09:46 |
| k1l | statl: which doesnt help him, because he wopnt get help in here with it | 09:46 |
| Sik | GNOME Classic is GNOME3 behaving like GNOME2, right? | 09:46 |
| k1l | Sik: yes, but its not the full old behaviour. some parts like configuration of the panel are missing | 09:47 |
| Sik | But it's similar in use :| | 09:47 |
| Sik | The only serious change I noticed was the system settings being moved elsewhere | 09:48 |
| k1l | i see most people complaining because its not a full gnome2 desktop. i suggest to use xfce instead | 09:48 |
| statl | k1l: aye | 09:48 |

| martin__ | hi. Please help me with pulseaudio. I've great problems with skype. Echo on microphone input (headset) and the output is fixed to HDMI! I cannot change it to the headset! | 09:49 |
| energizer | I noticed some network usage on my indicator, ran nethogs, and it told me that in addition to dropbox, chrome, etc, this program was running: "20.27:22-88.148.8.2" | 09:49 |
| xwalk | I don't really understand expansion in bash even though I've read on it a lot and I think that's the reason I'm having problems. | 09:49 |
| energizer | what is that? | 09:49 |
| ditchwindows | sorry brb | 09:49 |
| Sik | martin__: I'm not sure Skype uses PulseAudio, I think it's talking to ALSA directly *sigh* (does somebody know for sure?) | 09:49 |
| bekks | energizer: Thats no program at all. Looks like a malformed IP address. | 09:49 |
| energizer | bekks it appears in the PROGRAM column of nethogs, though without a DEV like eth0 | 09:50 |
| martin__ | Sik: I'm using skype version 4.2 which talks to pulseaudio directly | 09:51 |
| dementeddemigod | energizer: run "netstat -plantu" to see all your open network connections. It will tell you each of the processes (by name) that are connected or waiting. Then you can do some research on each one | 09:51 |
| bekks | energizer: Can you upload a screenshot of that output somewhere? | 09:52 |
| energizer | looks like it disappeared and the network activity dropped... | 09:53 |
| bekks | energizer: I guess it was just some malformed output of nethogs. | 09:54 |
| Sik | martin__: OK :S I just know that Skype is doing something weird because it constantly messes up the sound of all other programs | 09:54 |
| energizer | aite thanks bekks | 09:54 |
| Sik | Ben64: what was that command you told me to run actually do... | 09:55 |
| Sik | Alt+F8 shows an empty screen | 09:56 |
| bekks | Sik: On tty8, usually, there is nothing. | 09:56 |

| bekks | Sik: The "normal" x server runs on tty7, reachable with alt+f7 | 09:57 |
| Ben64 | Sik: starts up the gui stuffs | 09:57 |
| Sik | Alt+F7 should send me to the GUI? | 09:57 |
| Ben64 | yep | 09:57 |
| Sik | Nope :/ | 09:58 |
| Sik | I just get the wall of text from when Ubuntu boots | 09:58 |
| bekks | alt+f7 doesnt start up anything. It changes the tty to be displayed. | 09:58 |
| Ben64 | something is messed up pretty good | 09:58 |
| dementeddemigod | Sik: whats the last few lines about? | 09:58 |
| bekks | If the X server isnt running, there is nothing to display. | 09:58 |
| Sik | Er... OpenArena and Timidity | 09:58 |
| Sik | bekks: X complains that the screen is not usable | 09:59 |
| bekks | Sik: So the X server isnt running. | 09:59 |
| Ben64 | did you rename the xorg.conf | 09:59 |
| Sik | Ben64: removed, used nvidia-xconfig, used the failsafe, neither thing worked so far | 09:59 |
| Sik | It looks like X is decided to reject my monitor | 09:59 |
| Ben64 | which video card, and which driver? | 09:59 |
| Sik | GeForce 7300GS, Nvidia 304.88 | 10:00 |

| Sik | ...how do I stop it | 10:36 |
| Ben64 | sudo service lightdm stop | 10:36 |

| Ben64 | k1l: there is no desktop, thats the problem | 10:37 |
| Sik | OK I'll start it then | 10:37 |
| k1l | dont try to startx start the lightdm. startx will cause root issues when starting with the correct lightdm afterwards | 10:37 |
| Sik | Aaaaaaaaaand same as before | 10:38 |
| Ben64 | k1l: so is that part of the problem now? he did startx before | 10:38 |
| Ben64 | i haven't had x problems for years | 10:38 |
| Sik | And startx promptly failed | 10:38 |
| Sik | I don't think X is running at all | 10:38 |
| k1l | Ben64: it could be. depends on the errors that appear | 10:39 |
| Sik | Then again I issued so many commands I should probably reboot *anyway* | 10:39 |
| bekks | Sik: startx failing is expected, since the correct way to start X is using lightdm. | 10:39 |
| Sik | k1l: X refuses to boot, it claims the screen doesn't have an usable configuration | 10:39 |
| Sik | Ugh, I'll just reboot and try again with this Xorg.conf | 10:39 |
| Sik | If I don't return in a while, it got fixed | 10:39 |
| Sik | :v | 10:39 |
| k1l | if the driver doesnt find the right resolution try to set up a proper xorg.conf | 10:40 |
| z3n0ps | k1l , Ubuntu 12.04 | 10:41 |
| k1l | z3n0ps: that should have a driver option in the system settings overview. since 12.10 its in the software-sources section, iirc | 10:41 |

| lotuspsychje | moose-machine: what does that program do? | 10:55 |
| sik | lotuspsychje: that's what I did with the custom Xorg.conf, the problem is that it outright won't even try the screen, period (and the Nvidia driver uses XRandR). Also X refuses to boot with the VESA driver too. | 10:55 |
| hotmedal | it does recognize the chip and allows me to soft on or off the wifi | 10:55 |

| lotuspsychje | dementeddemigod: yes but it wont have touch support | 10:58 |
| dementeddemigod | lotuspsychje: true | 10:59 |
| lotuspsychje | moose-machine: so if you plan to access the tablet by keyboard and mouse you can dualboot yes | 10:59 |
| sik | lotuspsychje: those people you said had problems last night, is there any pattern in common with their hardware? | 10:59 |
| moose-machine | dementeddemigod: yes. i also hear that the Surface Pro allows access to disable UEFI and is open as compared to the Surface RT. I was wondering if anyone had any experience with it. As it seems like an awesome tablet. | 11:00 |
| lotuspsychje | sik: i think it was only nvidia, and all got the problem after a reboot | 11:00 |
| z3n0ps | BCM43142 , guess it won't work argh >.< | 11:00 |
| sik | In case you wonder, my monitor is an IBM G74 (yes, I know, very old, but my last one broke and I needed a new one ASAP - I have this one since years by now though...) | 11:00 |
| dementeddemigod | moose-machine: do you mean disable secure uefi? or disable uefi entirely? | 11:01 |
| hotmedal | bekks: It's a weird problem, wl *almost* works. Just not the encrypted networks. Do you have any idea why that might be? | 11:01 |
| sik | lotuspsychje: probably after a reboot only because that's when X reconfigures itself :S | 11:01 |
| lotuspsychje | sik: i would go dig in /var/log to see whats happening | 11:01 |
| sik | lotuspsychje: that's how I found the message about the screen not having an usable configuration | 11:01 |
| moose-machine | dementeddemigod: i am not sure of the difference as I have no experience. I think it means disable secure uefi. | 11:01 |
| lotuspsychje | sik: can you still hit F1 after grub, or does it go blank before? | 11:01 |

| sik | Only in recovery mode it doesn't | 11:03 |
| moose-machine | lotuspsychje: any idea if it performs just as well, i mean any news of hardware incompatibility on the Surface Pro? | 11:03 |
| lotuspsychje | sik: but recoverymode goes blank aswell hmm | 11:03 |
| sik | Eh, I'll try, though it does show some messages | 11:03 |
| sik | Um... ¿ :S ? | 11:03 |
| lotuspsychje | moose-machine: try ##hardware channel :p | 11:03 |
| dementeddemigod | moose-machine: if it is disable secure uefi then you don't need a signed (as in certified by a signing authority) uefi boot. If it is disable UEFI entirely then it reverts to BIOS style booting and you can install anything you like on it. | 11:03 |
| moose-machine | lotuspsychje: thanks for that. is ##hardware a linux specific room, or a generic hardware room? thx | 11:04 |

| Esokrates | my display flickers randomly (sometimes every few hours, somtimes ever few minutes). i don't have to do sth. to make it flicker. I have tried various boot parameters and also tried enabeling nvidia brightness control . The problem does still occur. To be sure it is no hardware issue, I tried windows and the problem does not seems to appear there. any suggestions? | 11:29 |
| Esokrates | (it is a brightness flicker) | 11:29 |
| Esokrates | (and there is only a single flicker) | 11:30 |
| lotuspsychje | Esokrates: what ubuntu version? | 11:31 |
| Esokrates | 13.04 but i am experiencing this since a long time and on different distributions | 11:32 |
| lotuspsychje | Esokrates: did you clean install or upgraded every time? | 11:32 |
| Esokrates | lcean | 11:32 |
| Magicarp | It seems my intake case fans RPM is stored in /sys/devices/platform/it87.552/fan2_input. If I change the value will it change the speed of the fan? | 11:32 |
| lotuspsychje | Esokrates: thats odd indeed, what graphics card? | 11:32 |
| Esokrates | lotuspsychje: nvidia quadro 1000M | 11:33 |
| Esokrates | lotuspsychje: using prop. drivers | 11:33 |
| streulma | Esokrates: on Mac the same problem, on Mountain Lion flickering, Lion not | 11:33 |
| lotuspsychje | Esokrates: ever tryed the other drivers? | 11:33 |
| streulma | Esokrates: I think it's a driver problem | 11:34 |
| Esokrates | lotuspsychje: different versions don't change the issue (have tried everything from 300.x nvidia drivers) | 11:34 |
| streulma | Esokrates: try installing bumblebee | 11:34 |
| Esokrates | streulma using the same card the mac issue? | 11:34 |
| streulma | Esokrates: no, but it's also Nvidia | 11:34 |
| === jarodvander is now known as jarod|away | ||
| Esokrates | streulma: what should bumblebee change? | 11:35 |
| streulma | Esokrates: hmm I think nothing, it just installs the nvidia 310 driver | 11:35 |
| Esokrates | streulma: i have nvidia 319 drivers | 11:36 |
| Esokrates | streulma: but as i said, the problem is version independent | 11:36 |
| wadie | dementeddemigod, ping the dns ? | 11:36 |
| summit | i'm trying to install Skype but under distro selection it only displays 10.04 32bit, 12.04 multiarch, would either of these work on the 13.04? | 11:37 |
| dementeddemigod | wadie: nope ping www.google.com. If that doesn't work try traceroute www.google.com. If ping does work there is something funny going on and will be a bit harder to diagnose | 11:37 |
| wadie | http://paste.ubuntu.com/5767539/ | 11:38 |
| wadie | seems to be working | 11:38 |
| streulma | summit: activate your Partner repo in /etc/apt/sources.list | 11:38 |
| lotuspsychje | summit: or choose from skype website | 11:39 |
| summit | streulma: i'm quite new to ubuntu. | 11:39 |
| lotuspsychje | summit: 12.04 multiarch works on 13.04 aswell | 11:40 |
| Esokrates | so there is nothing that can be done, apart from hoping the bug disappears in the future? | 11:40 |
| summit | lotuspsychje: thanks mate | 11:40 |
| z3n0ps | Error: "Error! Bad return status for module build on kernel: 3.5.0-17-generic (i686)" | 11:40 |
| dementeddemigod | wadie: weird. you can't browse to it but you can ping it? have you installed a firewall at all? | 11:40 |
| wadie | no firewall | 11:40 |
| lotuspsychje | Esokrates: trying other drivers..opensource maybe? | 11:41 |
| streulma | Esokrates: yeah, think a driver problem, maybe you can try beta drivers? at your own risk | 11:41 |
| Esokrates | i am trying beta drivers already | 11:41 |
| Esokrates | opensource driver is not really an option | 11:41 |
| Esokrates | but it is completely independent from the window manager, that's for sure | 11:42 |
| Esokrates | and also ubuntu independent | 11:42 |
| lotuspsychje | Esokrates: i would go dig for similar bugs, and checkout solutions | 11:42 |
| Esokrates | kernel does not report any errors, backlight=vendor does not change anything, same for similar boot options | 11:42 |
| Esokrates | lotuspsychje: i have tried solutions of similar problems | 11:43 |
| Esokrates | lotuspsychje: none of them worked | 11:43 |
| dementeddemigod | wadie: being able to ping a site but not browse it is a pretty weird problem in a home network. In a corporate or other large network it'd make more sense. You can definitely get to it from other compters on the same network? | 11:43 |
| Esokrates | lotuspsychje: and i have to wait hours sometimes for the problem to appear | 11:43 |
| wadie | dementeddemigod, yes I can.. | 11:43 |
| Esokrates | lotuspsychje: upgrading bios did not help | 11:44 |
| dementeddemigod | wadie: have you made any changes to the configuration of the router? (other than changing the username/password of course) | 11:44 |

| === zahory is now known as checoimg | ||
| dementeddemigod | wadie: can't see anything obvious. Your ifconfig suggests you're getting plenty of data trasmitted (1.4GB) so the connection isn't completely hosed. I'd want to start doing things like watching tcpdump or wireshark from here, and that's a little hard to diagnose without sitting and watching it. I'm sorry but you may have reached the limits of what I can do :( | 11:52 |
| wadie | thanks for your help dementeddemigod. I appreciate it! | 11:53 |
| dementeddemigod | wadie: no worries, sorry I wan't any help | 11:53 |
| SP33D | hi can some one plz point me to a easy way to turn of graphical booting | 11:54 |
| SP33D | i would love to turn it on when needed | 11:54 |
| SP33D | so easy restart or enable x booting would be nice | 11:54 |
| k1l | !text | SP33D | 11:55 |
| ubottu | SP33D: To start your system in text-only mode append 'text' (without the quotes) to the kernel line in the grub menu. You can access the grub menu by pressing Esc (Grub legacy) or Shift (Grub2) during boot. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions#Text%20Mode | 11:55 |
| SP33D | ehm is there a other way | 11:55 |
| Noskcaj | Is anyone online a planet ubuntu mod? one of my posts broke | 11:55 |
| SP33D | i should say my case i think | 11:56 |
| SP33D | i setuped some virtual servers with ubuntu | 11:56 |
| SP33D | and now i simply wanna boot em so they are running without x | 11:56 |
| SP33D | so i need to do it without hiting keys on restart | 11:56 |
| SP33D | or such tasks | 11:57 |
| chrisirc | Where can I find musicians online using Debian or Ubuntu? | 11:57 |
| SP33D | i need to edit a file or such and then save and then reboot | 11:57 |
| SP33D | chrisirc simply do open a browser and google | 11:57 |
| chrisirc | find musicians who are using Debian/ubuntu | 11:57 |
| k1l | SP33D: you can boot into textmode and do a "sudo service lightdm start" to start x afterwards | 11:57 |
| SP33D | works well in ubuntu | 11:57 |
| Ben64 | SP33D: read the link that you were given, it shows what to edit | 11:57 |
| SP33D | i did | 11:57 |
| SP33D | the link points to a different type of info | 11:58 |
| jrib | SP33D: read what ubottu said | 11:58 |
| k1l | chrisirc: if its a technical support question ask here. other way ask in #ubuntu-offtopic | 11:58 |
| Ben64 | you did not read it in 26 seconds | 11:58 |
| SP33D | i read it it shows what keys to hit | 11:58 |
| tsimpson | SP33D: simply create a file /etc/init/lightdm.override with the contents "manual" (without quotes) | 11:58 |
| SP33D | on boot to enter grube menu | 11:58 |
| k1l | SP33D: i just told you some way it would work | 11:58 |
| tsimpson | that will stop lightdm from loading bt default | 11:58 |
| tsimpson | you can still start it manually | 11:58 |
| Ben64 | SP33D: continue reading, there is more | 11:58 |
| chrisirc | I'm looking for a community link. | 11:58 |
| SP33D | tsimpson: ill try | 11:59 |
| SP33D | i hope it works that sounds nice and k1l you told me good way to start it then thx | 11:59 |
| jrib | SP33D: no, read more carefully even just what ubottu said in this channel. There are two alternatives, you can hit keys and edit grub during boot or just configure the option in grub's configuration files. The details are in the link. Stop pressing enter so much | 11:59 |
| tsimpson | SP33D: just "echo manual | sudo tee /etc/init/lightdm.override" should do it | 12:00 |
| jrib | SP33D: ubottu's way will be more general (in case you install a different dm than just stopping lightdm) | 12:00 |
| SP33D | jrib: the solution with creating a override is cute | 12:00 |
| jrib | SP33D: sure, but it's specific to lightdm | 12:00 |
| SP33D | i am on lubuntu | 12:00 |
| SP33D | so thats well | 12:00 |
| SP33D | :D | 12:00 |
| SP33D | its realy well for me thx | 12:00 |
| jrib | SP33D: most DMs will check if you booted with the "text" option and not start if so | 12:00 |
| SP33D | don't wanna use other dm's | 12:01 |
| SP33D | i am sure :D | 12:01 |
| SP33D | lubuntu is realy well | 12:01 |
| Ben64 | SP33D: you should learn to do things the proper way | 12:01 |
| jrib | SP33D: ok, well configuring grub is a better, more general, solution imo; but do what you want | 12:01 |
| Noskcaj | One of my posts to planet ubuntu has broken. can someone help? | 12:01 |
| Ben64 | Noskcaj: go find a support avenue for whatever "planet ubuntu" is then? this is for ubuntu the operating system | 12:02 |
| k1l | Noskcaj: maybe its better to contact the planet admin/mods direct? | 12:02 |
| Noskcaj | k1l, i don't know how to. the rt@ubuntu email just gives an automated responce | 12:03 |
| Noskcaj | Ben64, i've tried | 12:03 |
| SP33D | jrib: thx for that advice i understand why you do it but i am not a geek i wanna code my stuff and be happy :D i am a one person company | 12:03 |
| floogy | Hi, I get on showmount -e | 12:03 |
| SP33D | so it is ok | 12:03 |
| floogy | clnt_create: RPC: Port mapper failure - Authentication error | 12:03 |
| jrib | SP33D: ok, but it's not coding stuff; it's just editing a different file | 12:04 |
| floogy | On, sudo rpcinfo -p localhost | 12:04 |
| floogy | rpcinfo: can't contact portmapper: RPC: Authentication error; why = Client credential too weak | 12:04 |
| SP33D | jrib right that but i do run this virtual machine coz my coding stuff | 12:04 |
| floogy | I already did : echo 'OPTIONS="-w -i"' | sudo tee /etc/default/rpcbind | 12:04 |
| SP33D | its a simply mysql server and such stuff | 12:04 |
| floogy | and restarted the service | 12:04 |
| SP33D | i run it as vm and then transfer it to amzon ^^ | 12:04 |
| jrib | SP33D: ok. | 12:05 |
| SP33D | has some one a easy way to decrypt the complet file system? | 12:07 |
| SP33D | i installed one time encrypted and forgotten that i will need to start the machine remote | 12:07 |
| SP33D | and automated | 12:07 |
| SP33D | :D | 12:07 |
| Esokrates | lotuspsychje: okay thank you ... i have already found this thread but never tried the solution | 12:08 |
| SP33D | so it can be a realy insecure method | 12:08 |
| jrib | SP33D: please stop using enter as punctuation. Try to keep your messages to one line | 12:08 |
| Esokrates | lotuspsychje: i will do it now | 12:08 |
| SP33D | some one knows a insecure method to turn of or decrypt or autologin on boot into a crypted file system from basic install? | 12:09 |
| Wiz_KeeD | hey guys | 12:11 |
| Wiz_KeeD | how do i download a file via ssh? | 12:11 |
| Wiz_KeeD | the ports 80 and ftp are blocked :( | 12:11 |
| k1l | Wiz_KeeD: use scp | 12:11 |
| SP33D | oh when i boot into text only don't i should get after login a normal bash prompt | 12:12 |
| SP33D | or the same as terminal? | 12:12 |
| k1l | SP33D: it goes to tty login | 12:12 |
| jrib | SP33D: you should get a login prompt in a tty | 12:12 |
| SP33D | ya thats right and then? | 12:12 |
| k1l | SP33D: and then what? | 12:12 |
| SP33D | coz i can enter text after login i got a message about warenty and then | 12:13 |
| SP33D | i can do nothing | 12:13 |
| SP33D | no ls | 12:13 |
| SP33D | nothing | 12:13 |
| FloodBot1 | SP33D: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 12:13 |
| k1l | SP33D: that is a regular tty | 12:13 |
| SP33D | FloodBot1: sorry right sorry | 12:13 |
| SP33D | k1l how to switch to something usefull :D | 12:13 |
| SP33D | like bin bash or else | 12:13 |
| k1l | o_O | 12:13 |
| Wiz_KeeD | k1l, to actually download not push from a server to another? | 12:13 |
| Wiz_KeeD | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH/TransferFiles | 12:14 |
| Wiz_KeeD | i can't make it out of this | 12:14 |
| k1l | you wanted textmode. so there it is. its the dash. dont you know how terminal commands work? | 12:14 |
| k1l | Wiz_KeeD: you can use scp like cp on your own system | 12:14 |
| SP33D | ah took time | 12:14 |
| SP33D | maybe i setted to low resorces now i get a normal prompt with user@pc | 12:15 |
| SP33D | :D | 12:15 |
| Wiz_KeeD | ahhh | 12:15 |
| Wiz_KeeD | SWEET! | 12:15 |
| Wiz_KeeD | that was so easy, thanks k1l | 12:15 |
| Wiz_KeeD | i really didn't except to finish so fast :)) | 12:15 |
| k1l | Wiz_KeeD: no problem | 12:15 |
| garo | if i would install a MTA that would just send everything it receives ( mails to *@mydomain.com ) to my gmail account, would gmail keep filtering it or will it block my server after a while if i don't start filtering out spam | 12:15 |
| SP33D | garo: nope it will not | 12:16 |
| garo | good :) | 12:16 |
| SP33D | oh i am so happy that the server now starts in text mode | 12:17 |
| SP33D | :D | 12:17 |
| SP33D | i only hope it starts all services without login :D | 12:17 |
| k1l | SP33D: if its a server you could have tried server install from the start | 12:18 |
| SP33D | nope i whanted to try to get a minmal system but that fail | 12:18 |
| SP33D | since my expirence is to less | 12:18 |
| SP33D | my dream would be a realy little linux with only mysql-server running | 12:18 |
| SP33D | :D | 12:18 |
| shadej | when i enable the ssl mod on apache it is httpd is stoping | 12:19 |
| shadej | ? | 12:19 |
| SP33D | but thats still a dream :D | 12:19 |
| k1l | SP33D: you dont need all that desktop stuff fopr that | 12:19 |
| SP33D | shadej: what do you mean if you enable a mod it needs restarting yes | 12:19 |
| SP33D | k1l i know but i don't knowed how to remove all that stuff | 12:19 |
| shadej | I did restart it | 12:19 |
| hasenj | window manager not working on 13.04, tried `sudo start lightdm` in tty1, said already running | 12:19 |
| SP33D | like i sayed my dream would be to know whats the minimal usefull system | 12:19 |
| k1l | SP33D: you dont need to remove that | 12:20 |
| SP33D | so i can simply use sshd and a shell prompt and mysqlserver | 12:20 |
| k1l | SP33D: ubuntu ships server installs (minimal isntalls) | 12:20 |
| SP33D | how big are they? | 12:20 |
| SP33D | :D | 12:20 |
| shadej | SP33D: during restart it says port in use but status is ok | 12:20 |
| shadej | when i issue the command "nmap localhost" | 12:20 |
| shadej | i can not see port 80 | 12:20 |
| SP33D | shadej simply turn apache of and start it | 12:21 |
| SP33D | if port is still in use then maybe the ip is wrong | 12:21 |
| k1l | SP33D: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/server/install-ubuntu-server | 12:21 |
| SP33D | k1l: 700mb looks as big | 12:22 |
| shadej | SP33D: which ip ? | 12:22 |
| SP33D | as my lubuntu alternate install | 12:22 |
| shadej | the server is on my localhost | 12:22 |
| SP33D | shadej: it gets bound to ip:port | 12:22 |
| k1l | SP33D: its not about the size of the iso | 12:22 |
| k1l | SP33D: its about the stuff that gets installed | 12:22 |
| SP33D | k1l: how big is such a install do you know it? | 12:22 |
| k1l | SP33D: the whole desktop stuff is not needed for a server which only is supposed to run mysql | 12:23 |
| SP33D | k1l i know i only used it coz i installed lubuntu coz i liked the distri | 12:23 |
| shadej | SP33D: WAIT ME A SECOND | 12:23 |
| SP33D | but i think there could be a way to have like only 300 mb or maybe less big linux | 12:23 |
| SP33D | only for sshd and shell prompt and mysql | 12:24 |
| k1l | its like driving a truck just to carry shoebox | 12:24 |
| SP33D | i tryed often this realy small linux editions but all wasn't useable in production | 12:24 |
| k1l | SP33D: i like trucks. but its not about liking trucks when you dont need a truck | 12:24 |
| SP33D | k1l but in the truck is engout space if something is needed | 12:24 |
| jerry5 | How can I modify Ubuntu to auto shutdown if the password entered in the screen unlock is wrong? | 12:24 |
| k1l | SP33D: "extra space" is just weight that is not needed at all. | 12:25 |
| === artpicre is now known as Artpicre | ||
| SP33D | k1l yes thats what i am talking about but you still don't answered | 12:25 |
| SP33D | how big is such a server install | 12:25 |
| k1l | you can install the "stuff that is needed" if you want on top of that server install. but its way more lightweight from the start | 12:25 |
| k1l | SP33D: i dont know exactly. that depends on your needs. but a desktop install has alot of services installed and started that you dont need for just running ssh and mysql | 12:26 |
| k1l | that is what i tried to say from the beginning: if you want a server, dont install a desktop | 12:27 |

| SP33D | thats what you a searching for | 12:57 |
| shadej | SP33D: | 12:57 |
| SP33D | Shade when you do: ps aux | grep apache | 12:58 |
| SP33D | do you get a result that apache is running? | 12:58 |
| SP33D | yes or no? | 13:00 |
| SP33D | if it says yes simply to kill -9 and the pid number ^^ | 13:00 |
| shadej | SP33D: no | 13:00 |
| shadej | sorrry | 13:00 |
| SP33D | if it don't do "sudo lsof -i" | 13:00 |
| SP33D | look if port 80 is opened and by what | 13:01 |
| SP33D | do sudo lsof -i :80 | 13:01 |
| SP33D | then you see only what is on port 80 | 13:01 |
| natrixnatrix89 | what is the best way to add a daemon to be launched on system boot? | 13:02 |
| SP33D | natrix system service or init.d script | 13:02 |
| shadej | SP33D: is not this simple | 13:02 |
| shadej | nmap localhost | 13:02 |
| Eagleman | After installing some git packages, apt-get is whining about something missing, however i do not want turbolift to be uninstalled, but there seems no other option, what could i do? http://hpaste.org/89954 | 13:02 |
| SP33D | no nmap needed | 13:02 |
| SP33D | do | 13:02 |
| SP33D | sudo lsof -i :80 | 13:02 |
| SP33D | and past the result any where | 13:03 |
| SP33D | if it shows no result port 80 isn't open or in use | 13:03 |
| SP33D | it is so easy | 13:03 |
| SP33D | :D | 13:03 |
| shadej | there is a result | 13:03 |
| natrixnatrix89 | should I write init.d script? | 13:04 |
| shadej | natrixnatrix89: no | 13:04 |
| natrixnatrix89 | for example if I want to launch a node.js app.. | 13:04 |
| Isolol | Eagleman, have you tried reinstalling python entirely? | 13:04 |
| natrixnatrix89 | and run 'forever' on init.. | 13:04 |
| shadej | there many init scripts there | 13:04 |
| shadej | init.d is a folder | 13:05 |
| natrixnatrix89 | well apache for example.. It runs on system startup because of it's init.d script, right? | 13:05 |
| shadej | yeah, there is a script that will make apache run at start up under the folder init.d | 13:06 |
| natrixnatrix89 | shadej: How do I add my script to service? | 13:06 |
| SP33D | sudo ln /opt/beispielapp/apache-tomcat/bin/catalina.sh /etc/init.d/catalina | 13:07 |
| SP33D | sudo update-rc.d catalina defaults | 13:07 |
| shadej | natrixnatrix89: do you want only to make it start up at boot time? | 13:07 |
| shadej | or you want the controls like start stop reload ? | 13:07 |
| dark | bonjour :-) | 13:08 |
| natrixnatrix89 | basically yes.. What else could I want? like adding service controls like "reload".. I think just start will suffice | 13:08 |
| SP33D | this example adds catalina.sh <- the script to start to /etc/init.d directory and then adds it with update-rc.d catalina defaults t | 13:08 |
| shadej | ok if start is enough | 13:08 |
| SP33D | autostart | 13:08 |
| shadej | there is simpler way i think | 13:08 |
| SP33D | i think most simply is to have a shell script in init.d dir | 13:09 |
| Encrypt | Hi everybody! :) | 13:09 |
| shadej | natrixnatrix89: do you know .deskto file | 13:09 |
| SP33D | and then add it with update-rc.d | 13:09 |
| Encrypt | I'm tring to configure Gwibber for my new twitter account on Ubuntu 12.04 | 13:09 |
| shadej | SP33D: for beginner just putting .desktop file is easy | 13:09 |
| natrixnatrix89 | well I need it on ubuntu server | 13:09 |
| SP33D | shadej: but what if he don't logs into desktop don't know what he exactly whants | 13:09 |
| Encrypt | But everytime I configure y account, an internal errors occurs :( | 13:09 |
| Encrypt | So, I couldn't get t working :( | 13:09 |
| SP33D | desktop file gets readed after login | 13:10 |
| shadej | SP33D: sure that is another question | 13:10 |
| natrixnatrix89 | so then I guess the most appropriate way would be SP33D s suggestion | 13:10 |
| SP33D | right i would think that too | 13:10 |
| SP33D | :D | 13:10 |
| shadej | natrixnatrix89: yeah, and if you are using a server | 13:10 |
| natrixnatrix89 | so basically catalina.sh could contain just 2 lines: #! /bin/bash | 13:11 |
| natrixnatrix89 | forever myscript.js | 13:11 |
| Eagleman | Isolol, is that a serious request? | 13:11 |
| Neozonz | Can someone help me? Just installed ubuntu but when I try to watch a video I get alot of choppyness | 13:11 |
| SP33D | right | 13:11 |
| Neozonz | screen tears and what not | 13:11 |
| natrixnatrix89 | awesome.. | 13:11 |
| shadej | natrixnatrix89: am telling to open one of the start up scripts and have a look at them | 13:11 |
| SP33D | where catalina.sh was a example script | 13:11 |
| natrixnatrix89 | another issue.. I just compiled ffmpeg.. | 13:12 |
| SP33D | you can simply if you don't got any run script make a text file with your start stuff put it into /etc/init.d | 13:12 |
| narcos | Hi all. I want to update my timezone - most tutorials suggest using 'dpkg-reconfigure tzdata', but is there a non-interactive method? | 13:12 |
| natrixnatrix89 | But the weird thing is.. when I try to run it, I get this error: The program 'ffmpeg' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing: | 13:12 |
| natrixnatrix89 | also whereis ffmpeg doesn't say anything | 13:12 |
| SP33D | and then run "sudo update-rc.d yourfile" | 13:12 |
| SP33D | and it gets startet | 13:12 |
| Isolol | Eagleman, python-datetime (your missing dependency) installed w/ python on my VM w/ no problem. So I don't know why you are being sarcastic. | 13:12 |
| natrixnatrix89 | and which doesn't help too | 13:13 |
| SP33D | ya install ffmpeg soo | 13:13 |
| SP33D | apt-get install ffmpeg | 13:13 |
| shadej | hah. | 13:13 |
| SP33D | sudo apt-get install ffmpeg i mean | 13:13 |
| SP33D | :D | 13:13 |
| natrixnatrix89 | nope.. I want my compiled version | 13:13 |
| SP33D | sorry | 13:13 |
| Eagleman | Isolol, how can it be installed when it is not in the repository? | 13:13 |
| SP33D | then simply put it into the path | 13:13 |
| Neozonz | how can i fix screentears during video playback? | 13:14 |
| SP33D | or simply use /full/path/ffmpeg | 13:14 |
| SP33D | in your script | 13:14 |
| natrixnatrix89 | right.. | 13:14 |
| SP33D | sure that is right :D | 13:14 |
| SP33D | i wanna help you | 13:14 |
| natrixnatrix89 | it's just weird that make install didn't put it the right path.. | 13:14 |
| SP33D | it did | 13:14 |
| kaki | hello everybody! i have an issue with grub and luks+lvm. is there anybody who can help me? | 13:14 |

| SP33D | but probally in a user profil that is not loged in | 13:14 |
| SP33D | at this starting point | 13:14 |
| natrixnatrix89 | basically I can use it in /home/janis/ffmpeg_sources/ffmpeg | 13:15 |

| shadej | is it httpd.conf? | 13:18 |

| natrixnatrix89 | It looks like ffmpeg installed in ~/bin | 13:19 |
| natrixnatrix89 | Why do I have to make a symlink to /usr/local/bin ? | 13:20 |
| SP33D | hmmmmm good question at all what do you mean with not run | 13:20 |
| SP33D | use on terminal: /home/user/bin/ffmpeg | 13:20 |
| SP33D | does that work? | 13:20 |
| natrixnatrix89 | sure it does.. | 13:20 |
| SP33D | what do you then mean? | 13:20 |
| SP33D | with it don't runs? | 13:20 |
| Eagleman | After installing some git packages, apt-get is whining about something missing, however i do not want turbolift to be uninstalled, but there seems no other option, what could i do? http://hpaste.org/89954 | 13:20 |
| natrixnatrix89 | bare ffmpeg doesn't run.. | 13:20 |
| natrixnatrix89 | it runs if I add a symlink to /usr/local/bin/ffmpeg though.. | 13:21 |
| SP33D | maybe wrong permissions of the home dir | 13:21 |
| SP33D | and the running user | 13:21 |
| SP33D | so the symlink is a good idea | 13:21 |
| SP33D | :D | 13:21 |
| kaki | checoimg: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5767819/ | 13:24 |
| shadej | SP33D: I think the problem is with ssl mod | 13:24 |
| shadej | when i disable this module it is working | 13:24 |
| SP33D | shadej then do with ssl port | 13:25 |
| SP33D | or disable ssl | 13:25 |
| SP33D | you don't need it | 13:25 |
| SP33D | i don't think you own a cert that is accepted so | 13:25 |
| SP33D | it don't matters | 13:25 |
| SP33D | :D | 13:25 |
| shadej | SP33D: oh no my aim is to set up virtual ssl | 13:26 |
| ben__ | Hello? | 13:26 |
| ben__ | aw fhuck | 13:27 |
| SP33D | shadej oh then you need to check whats blocking the ssl port | 13:27 |
| SP33D | in the ssl conf | 13:27 |
| ben__ | i have one question | 13:27 |
| SP33D | it is maybe a extra file | 13:27 |

| ben__ | when you download ubuntu, Does it remove you existing os | 13:28 |
| Spawnny | Hi guys, i need some help regarding ubuntu, i deleted a user thru the command line, but its still showing up in webmin as #100x , and it has used some diskspace, how do i completly remove it ? | 13:28 |
| shadej | SP33D: where is ssl conf? | 13:29 |
| SP33D | most times if you use standart it is in /etc/apache2/ | 13:29 |
| SP33D | depends even on where your httpd.conf ist | 13:30 |
| SP33D | :D | 13:30 |
| SP33D | but your in wrong channel go to #httpd | 13:30 |

| shadej | may this could be the problem | 14:20 |
| minimec | user____: So I don't knoe why the system is not recognizing the fs type. I you used a swap file as option. 'They' say, that there shouldn't be a difference in speed and handling. | 14:20 |

| pfifo | Hi everyone | 14:47 |
| purezen | Anyone here can tell me how to 'switch off' my Nvidia card.. GT 630M..? | 14:47 |
| pfifo | purezen, maybe just take it out of the computer | 14:48 |
| purezen | pfifo: Oh well..:D :D .. Looking for a saner way, though.. | 14:49 |
| pfifo | purezen, is this an onboard card? | 14:49 |
| marz | I reinstalled ubuntu 12.04 (I had ubuntu 13.* before and windows 7 on different partitions) and now it seems my bootloader is messed up, it goes straight to grub 2 prompt saying file not found | 14:49 |
| purezen | pfifo: No.. discrete.. on a laptop.. | 14:49 |
| marz | can anyone please help me out with this? thankz | 14:49 |
| pfifo | purezen, why do you want to turn it off anyway? | 14:50 |
| purezen | pfifo: Save power..! | 14:50 |
| purezen | Battery life.. ie.. | 14:50 |
| pfifo | purezen, shouldn't use anything excessive unless your using the gfx acceleration | 14:51 |
| auronandace | purezen: can't you disable it in the bios? | 14:51 |
| minimec | purezen: Did you check your BIOS? There may be an option to disable the discrite card. That would be a nice way... | 14:51 |
| purezen | auronandace: Seems not.. | 14:51 |
| pfifo | !ping | 14:52 |
| ubottu | pong! | 14:52 |

| ubottu | marz: 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 | 14:52 |
| purezen | minimec: Will check for that again.. Still would like to know how to do it form Ubuntu.. | 14:53 |
| minimec | purezen: You could black list the drivers, btu I don't know if this has a huge influence on power consumption. For ATI cards there's a tool called vgaswitcheroo, that does that. There might be a similar tool for nvidia. | 14:53 |
| theos | re:i cant use my usb mouse. i get the error: Cannot enable port 1. Maybe the USB cable is bad? it used to work in 10.04. isnt working on 13.04. i need help! | 14:53 |
| purezen | minimec: Ok.. shall see for that.. | 14:54 |
| marz | ubottu, I did not lost grub after installing windows, i lost it after installing ubuntu the second time | 14:54 |
| ubottu | marz: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 14:54 |
| pfifo | purezen, you can try removing the kernel module, but it might not work as expected | 14:54 |
| minimec | purezen: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HybridGraphics | 14:54 |
| marz | pfifo: can i fix it via the terminal og the live usb stick that I'm currently using? | 14:54 |
| pfifo | marz, sure can | 14:54 |

| purezen | pfifo: Well.. shall look for that.. | 14:55 |
| purezen | minimec: Thanks..:-) | 14:55 |
| pfifo | purezen, I bet a dollar it crashes the system when you try :( | 14:55 |
| purezen | Going through.. | 14:55 |
| minimec | purezen: I read now that vgaswitcheroo will work for nvidia cards, if you use the opensource driver. | 14:55 |
| purezen | pfifo: Of course..:D | 14:55 |
| contrapunctus | Can someone please help me get my touchpad enable/disable key working? It worked on Mint 12, but isn't working on Xubuntu 12.04 :S | 14:56 |
| purezen | minimec: Hmm.. | 14:56 |
| pfifo | marz, can you pastebin info in your current situation? | 14:56 |
| marz | pfifo: sorry, I don't follow | 14:57 |
| minimec | purezen: Put this line once in /etc/rc.local 'echo ON > /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch' and reboot... If you are lucky, the card if 'off'... again, using the 'nouveau' driver. | 14:58 |
| minimec | purezen: OFF ... ;) I am stupid ;) | 14:59 |
| purezen | minimec: Well.. shall do that..:-) | 14:59 |
| marz | pfifo: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5768100/ | 14:59 |
| pfifo | marz, Ill need to see the output of 'sudo fdisk -l' you have to use a pastebin such as http://paste.ubuntu.com to pass the info, it might be hard for you todo that if you are stuck on the command line and even harder if theres no networking | 14:59 |
| purezen | minimec: Ah.. well.. that's fine..:D | 14:59 |

| ovrflw0x | pfifo, it is 2010 model we are in year mid 2013 | 15:05 |

| marz | pfifo: can you tell me the command, I'm pretty new to Linuxl I'm sorry. | 15:08 |
| auronandace | ovrflw0x: i mean what i said, i don't use hybrid graphics | 15:08 |
| ovrflw0x | but will ubuntu work? | 15:08 |
| ovrflw0x | wit them | 15:08 |
| pfifo | marz, i did, i put commands in quotes for easy copy pasting... 'mount' | 15:08 |
| auronandace | ovrflw0x: yes but hybrid graphics might give you some headaches | 15:09 |
| ovrflw0x | everything else should work right? | 15:09 |
| pfifo | ovrflw0x, you should be ok, try a live cd to get a good feel for the system before commiting to anything | 15:09 |
| ovrflw0x | including multitouch touchpad | 15:09 |
| minimec | ovrflw0x: You might have to switch off the ATI GPU, to have a decent Linux experience. This is quiet easy, but you will not have the full GPU power provided by your machine. | 15:09 |
| auronandace | ovrflw0x: yes | 15:09 |
| marz | pfifo: you did not provide me with the link | 15:10 |
| ovrflw0x | minimec, what do you mean by full gpu power | 15:10 |
| ovrflw0x | used to do what' | 15:10 |
| marz | pfifo: oh i get it, sorry give me a sec | 15:10 |
| pfifo | marz, no you need to run 'mount' pastebin the output and then pass the link to me :) | 15:10 |
| ovrflw0x | should i got for ubuntu or kubuntu since i have a "Laptop" | 15:10 |
| ovrflw0x | go* | 15:10 |
| pfifo | ovrflw0x, lubuntu is very lightweight, good for older machines sometimes | 15:11 |
| marz | http://paste.ubuntu.com/5768131/ | 15:11 |
| auronandace | ovrflw0x: both would work just fine, they have the same base | 15:11 |
| marz | pfifo: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5768131/ | 15:11 |
| ovrflw0x | pfifo, this is no old machine it is i5 | 15:11 |
| minimec | ovrflw0x: Well you are 'only' running on the internal Intel GPU, which is fine for daily use. I have a dual screen desktop, running like that. But you will obviously not have the power of the ATI card. | 15:12 |
| ovrflw0x | auronandace, gnome or kde which one better supports latest hardware laptops | 15:12 |
| ovrflw0x | minimec, i usually use discrete card for external monior | 15:13 |
| ovrflw0x | t | 15:13 |
| auronandace | ovrflw0x: neither, they are desktop environments, the hardware makes no difference | 15:13 |
| pfifo | ovrflw0x, well technically you can have ubuntu and kubuntu at the same time, 'sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop' | 15:13 |
| ovrflw0x | pfifo, but then there is mix up of similar gnome and kde softwares which is annoying | 15:13 |
| minimec | ovrflw0x: The internal Intel card can handle two screens (Ivy bridge even three). | 15:14 |
| rosco_y | Noobie here: How do I use virtual desktops? | 15:14 |
| ovrflw0x | minimec, but display port is not connected to intel card | 15:14 |
| peeta | is there a way to automatically set a window's X property when a window is created, similar to how it is manually set using xprop -f? | 15:14 |
| pfifo | marz, why is all your drives mounted in /mnt | 15:14 |
| minimec | ovrflw0x: Well it is on my desktop motherboard... | 15:15 |

| SP33D | you then need to restart apache | 16:03 |

| shadej | SP33D: i am doing that but it is saying unable to open log file | 16:04 |
| pfifo | shadej, SP33D, if the log file doesnt exist, that turns off logging, make it a blank file | 16:04 |

| === peeta is now known as repeeta | ||

| Guest50775 | pfifo: thx, i don't see a relevent switch | 16:12 |
| pfifo | OerHeks, you still need './configure --with-lame' during the build | 16:12 |

| samsamsam | I installed netbeans by downloading its file and its not listed in software centre . how do i uninstall it? | 16:21 |
| pfifo | shadej, something else might be using port 80 then, maybe another instance of apache or even a different httpd | 16:22 |
| shadej | pfifo: i checked that the whole day | 16:22 |
| shadej | it is free | 16:22 |
| shadej | may be my doubt is with the ssl configuration | 16:22 |
| pfifo | shadej, ohh i just noticed it did a graceful restart and it didnt wait long enough. So yeah its modssl causing then segfaults. | 16:24 |
| shadej | yeah | 16:24 |

| ltxda | hi all. have a partition problem. Hope someone's been through this and can help. I cloned a server with Clonezilla. Then restored it to a virtual machine with a larger HD. The original was approx 200GB. The new virtual disk is 1TB. Everything went well and the server boots but for some reason it's only recognizing the original hard disk size. Any way to have it extend to the rest of | 16:42 |
| ltxda | the free space? I used GParted but can't figure out how to get it to do that. | 16:42 |

| MariachiAC | Greygan: Do I need to format the disk for efi support or will it boot via grub automatically | 17:23 |
| pfifo | shadej, you can do 'Listen w.x.y.z:80' to get it to bind to just a single addy, the NameVirtualHost is something different and should be left alone | 17:23 |
| shadej | pfifo: yeah i did , i made it to be 10.0.0.13:80 | 17:24 |
| Greygan | MariachiAC: I would suggest a reformat anyway... but grub should take over either way | 17:24 |

| maxagaz | version i386 I guess | 19:11 |
| auronandace | maxagaz: 11.04 is no longer supported | 19:11 |
| shadej | pfifo: ? | 19:12 |
| maxagaz | auronandace: can I upgrade it ? | 19:12 |
| pfifo | shadej, and the other cert too 'ls -l /etc/ssl/private/server.key' | 19:12 |
| TomJ616 | Hey guys, is it possible to install ubuntu via netboot but without download anything? | 19:12 |
| maxagaz | auronandace: or not anymore | 19:12 |
| maxagaz | ? | 19:12 |
| auronandace | maxagaz: better to fresh install a supported ubuntu version | 19:12 |
| SP33D | TomJ616: i don't think so | 19:12 |
| maxagaz | auronandace: I have to much stuff installed on this server | 19:12 |
| TomJ616 | What I mean by that is, I have the iso file on my computer, but can't install it because my monitor goes "out of range" | 19:13 |
| shadej | pfifo: result | 19:13 |
| shadej | -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 891 ጁን 15 09:02 /etc/ssl/private/server.key | 19:13 |
| TomJ616 | And from what I understand, a netboot install is a text install | 19:13 |
| auronandace | maxagaz: you should have upgraded it while it was supported | 19:13 |
| pfifo | shadej, is that foreign language stuff supposed to be there? | 19:13 |
| SP33D | TomJ616: download the alternate install iso | 19:13 |
| tables | how can i see all the files for a package? | 19:13 |
| tables | that's installed? | 19:13 |
| maxagaz | auronandace: I'm always afraid some error occure | 19:13 |
| SP33D | there is a iso called alternate | 19:13 |
| SP33D | that offers the install you need | 19:13 |
| maxagaz | auronandace: and that this remote server doesn't restart | 19:14 |
| shadej | pfifo: it is a date | 19:14 |
| auronandace | maxagaz: that doesn't change the support rules | 19:14 |
| shadej | i just copy and paste | 19:14 |
| TomJ616 | Yeah, but I think I have to download ubuntu again then | 19:14 |
| TomJ616 | Right? | 19:14 |
| SP33D | TomJ616: right | 19:14 |
| SP33D | fully right | 19:14 |
| SP33D | :D | 19:14 |
| maxagaz | auronandace: ok, so no way to update it anymore, right ? | 19:14 |
| SP33D | you download ubuntu alternate cd iso | 19:14 |
| TomJ616 | I'm on a limited data plan :/ | 19:14 |
| SP33D | or server install | 19:14 |
| SP33D | TomJ616: then travel to next internet coffe shop | 19:15 |
| SP33D | or else | 19:15 |
| pfifo | shadej, when you start apache does it ask for a password? | 19:15 |
| danielkarlsson | maxagaz: I always fear that the same thing will happen. If you have the resources I would install a newer version on a new server then migrate the services one at the time, that way you can't lose anything. | 19:15 |
| TomJ616 | So tgere isn't a way to pull off a text install of some sort? | 19:15 |
| TomJ616 | there* | 19:15 |
| shadej | pfifo: i am using sudo | 19:15 |
| SP33D | TomJ616: nope thats not possible | 19:15 |
| shadej | do you mean the password for the certificate? | 19:16 |
| SP33D | thats coz there is a alternate iso it gets used when normal install fails | 19:16 |
| maxagaz | danielkarlsson: I don't have the ressources unfortunately | 19:16 |
| OerHeks | !!alternate | 19:16 |
| ubottu | The alternate CD has been discontinued for the main Ubuntu distro, please use and report any bugs in the !LiveCD | 19:16 |
| pfifo | shadej, well sudo itself will ask for a password, then it should ask for another one to unlock the private key | 19:16 |
| OerHeks | SP33D, use the mini iso | 19:16 |
| SP33D | ^ | 19:16 |
| shadej | pfifo: i made it to be passwordless | 19:16 |
| SP33D | TomJ616: ^ | 19:16 |
| SP33D | download the mini iso | 19:17 |
| SP33D | :D | 19:17 |
| shadej | SP33D: pfifo trying to help join us please | 19:17 |
| auronandace | shadej: that was a mistake | 19:17 |
| TomJ616 | Like I said, limited data plan :/ | 19:17 |
| shadej | auronandace: which one? | 19:17 |
| auronandace | shadej: disabling the password | 19:17 |
| SP33D | shadej: they simply don't understand your problem there is no password for apache | 19:18 |
| SP33D | shadej: they try to tell you when you do first time sudo a command | 19:18 |
| shadej | SP33D: they are talking about the certificate password | 19:18 |
| SP33D | it ask for the sudo password but then you don't get reasked | 19:18 |
| X-Sleepy-X | !sudo | 19:19 |
| SP33D | no no the cert isn't the problem | 19:19 |
| ubottu | sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (GNOME, Xfce), or !kdesudo (KDE). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo | 19:19 |
| danielkarlsson | maxagaz: Sometimes you have to take the bull by the horns. If you run a dist-upgrade everything should/might work, but best thing to do is a clean install. | 19:19 |
| SP33D | you can run apache even without a cert | 19:19 |
| SP33D | in ssl mode | 19:19 |
| SP33D | i am coder from apache and i know such things | 19:19 |
| shadej | SP33D: ok | 19:19 |
| pfifo | shadej, does this fix your problem http://www.clausconrad.com/blog/apache-segmentation-fault-after-enabling-ssl | 19:19 |
| SP33D | and if it would be a fail with the cert then there would be a other log | 19:20 |
| shadej | SP33D: yeah | 19:20 |
| SP33D | ah ya the link sounds nice | 19:20 |
| SP33D | try that | 19:20 |
| SP33D | disabling crul | 19:20 |

| SP33D | that would be such a bug | 19:21 |
| shadej | pfifo: what is the use of the curl module? | 19:22 |
| pfifo | shadej, its used to access network from within your php scripts, like you could use curl to make an online ftp client for your webserver | 19:23 |

| X-Sleepy-X | afancy: how is the monitor connected to the laptop? | 19:31 |
| Greygan | afancy: booting to the screen is not in question. Does Ubuntu see the external monitor in "system settings / displays"? | 19:31 |
| afancy | X-Sleepy-X:i use a laptop stand | 19:31 |

| pfifo | shadej, modssl whats a certian version of libssl, and php's curl wants a different version. | 19:48 |
| minimec | jcrza: Ubuntu installation on a surface pro seems possible, but I don't know if it is 100% supported... http://www.geek.com/microsoft/how-to-install-ubuntu-on-the-surface-pro-1539262/ | 19:48 |

| SP33D | ah i understand | 19:48 |
| SP33D | bad boy :D never update a server if you don't know what your doing | 19:49 |
| SP33D | never heard about never touch a running system? | 19:49 |
| shadej | pfifo: when i disable the ssl mod it imediatley works | 19:49 |
| shadej | it does not say port in use | 19:49 |
| Greygan | Ashael: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/17528/change-the-user-interface-language-in-ubuntu/ | 19:50 |
| X-Sleepy-X | Ashael: you need to open the settings and go to language and then regional formats... | 19:50 |
| SP33D | but i was thinking about incompatiblity with the libssl too | 19:51 |
| SP33D | is it now working without php5 crul? | 19:51 |
| shadej | SP33D: yeah | 19:52 |
| SP33D | good to know | 19:52 |
| Ashael | Greygan, X-Sleepy-X: I'm not sure you got me. The locale settings and the language for the display of the locale settings are coupled, I want to decouple them so I can use an Israeli weekday order, but displayed in English and not in Hebrew. | 19:53 |
| Greygan | Ashael: the write up on that page shows how to keep currency and things the same and only change language output. | 19:53 |
| shadej | SP33D: pfifo what about this one: | 19:53 |
| shadej | Conflicting Listen directives | 19:53 |
| SP33D | that says that you got to much listen in you configs | 19:54 |

| pfifo | shadej, I think you should compile mod_ssl manually | 19:56 |
| shadej | pfifo: where is the module btw? | 19:57 |
| shadej | i did not install it | 19:57 |
| shadej | i just loaded it | 19:57 |
| pfifo | shadej, its part of the apache2.2-common package | 19:57 |
| shadej | how can i recompile it then | 19:57 |
| shadej | pfifo: | 19:58 |
| pfifo | shadej, im looking into it | 19:58 |
| === txdv_ is now known as txdv | ||
| pfifo | shadej, unfortunatly, you have to buid the whole server just to rebuild the one module, but in the end, mod_ssl will be using the version of libssl thats installed on your system... have you ever compiled a package before? | 20:01 |
| daze | I'm using unity-daily on Arch. When I search for an application (<super> + first few letters) and click on it, it opens a 'details' view with 'no image available', 'rating', and a 'launch' button.

| shadej | pfifo: nope | 20:02 |
| Flannel | shadej, pfifo: Why are we doing this? Did we manually install something else that wants a different version? | 20:02 |

| shadej | Flannel: nothing happens | 20:26 |
| shadej | same | 20:26 |
| poppingtonic | Hi all | 20:26 |
| Flannel | shadej: same means what? Does it successfully stop? Can you verify it's not serving? Does it successfully start? | 20:26 |
| poppingtonic | So...I'm running 12.04 LTS on an Acer AO751h | 20:27 |
| shadej | Flannel: just to be sure let me do it again for you | 20:27 |
| Flannel | shadej: wonderful, thanks. | 20:27 |
| shadej | hah.. | 20:27 |
| shadej | i issued "sudo service apache2 stop" | 20:28 |
| shadej | result: | 20:28 |
| shadej | apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.0.1 for ServerName | 20:28 |
| shadej | then it is ok | 20:28 |
| shadej | Flannel: i issued the command "sudo service apache2 start" | 20:29 |
| shadej | result is : | 20:29 |
| shadej | apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.0.1 for ServerName | 20:29 |
| shadej | (98)Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address [::]:80 | 20:29 |
| poppingtonic | And whenever I need to search for my Android phone's hotspot, I go to System Settings>Network, turn off the wireless network, turn it on again, and everthing works out. | 20:29 |
| pfifo | shadej, now look at the error.log again | 20:29 |
| Flannel | shadej: Alright. The FQDN message isn't anything to worry about, but it's easy to fix. | 20:29 |
| poppingtonic | *everything | 20:29 |
| Flannel | shadej: Where did PHP come into this? If you don't mind me asking. | 20:30 |
| shadej | Flannel: what do you mean? | 20:30 |
| pfifo | Flannel, that was part of my researchusing conflicting vversions of libssl, According to his older error.log hes getting a segfault upon starting the server, and google gave me many hits about php's curl and mod_ssl | 20:31 |
| Flannel | shadej: I don't know, when I came in, there was a lot of talk about PHP and SSL not agreeing. | 20:31 |
| poppingtonic | Until about an hour ago, when I can't turn it back on again, no matter what I do. The slider keeps sliding back to the "Off" state. | 20:31 |
| pfifo | Flannel, http://pastebin.com/K3UjcuPq | 20:32 |
| Flannel | shadej: Alright, can you please pastebin your /etc/apache2/sites-available/default-ssl ? | 20:32 |
| shadej | Flannel: pfifo was guessing if php curl extenssion was creating a problem | 20:33 |
| varunendra | poppingtonic, did you try a reboot? Did you have any updates that seem to have done it? | 20:34 |
| shadej | Flannel: ok here we go | 20:35 |
| shadej | http://pastebin.com/GKppd6rk | 20:35 |
| Flannel | shadej: Alright, thats looks normal. So again, can you please stop apache, and then point your browser to http://localhost and see if there's something being served there? | 20:35 |
| MariachiAC | can someone tell me how to use mactel-boot-setup? or am I just better off booting via grub on my mac system. | 20:35 |
| shadej | Flannel: i did | 20:36 |
| shadej | and there is no | 20:36 |
| Flannel | shadej: And was there anything being served? | 20:36 |
| Flannel | ok | 20:36 |
| shadej | you fast at everything btw | 20:37 |
| pfifo | Flannel, we adjusted it to 'Listen 10.0.0.13:80' so no localhost in this case | 20:37 |
| shadej | =D | 20:37 |
| Flannel | pfifo: What? | 20:37 |
| pfifo | Flannel, never changed it back yet, were only listening on 10.0.0.13, shouldnt serve anything on 127.0.0.1 whatsoever | 20:38 |
| shadej | pfifo: i did earased that | 20:38 |
| shadej | *erased | 20:38 |
| Flannel | pfifo: Where did we change this? | 20:38 |
| shadej | ports.conf | 20:38 |
| Flannel | why would you do that? | 20:38 |
| pfifo | /etc/apache2/ports.conf | 20:39 |
| TopGear | Is there a way to df the external HD on my RPi? The only I get is this: http://pastebin.com/QtN5KiPP Even making a new mount for the drive in smb.conf and mounting that on my laptop doesn't help. | 20:39 |
| pfifo | Flannel, general trouble shooting at the begining of the day | 20:39 |
| shadej | pfifo: sure | 20:39 |
| pfifo | (his IP is 10.0.0.13 of course) | 20:40 |
| poppingtonic | varunendra: whenever I reboot and do the ritual, it recurs. I have no idea what I might've broken since I haven't installed any recent updates... | 20:40 |
| === me is now known as Guest36238 | ||
| shadej | Flannel: just go on with your test | 20:41 |
| shadej | i have undo that | 20:41 |
| Flannel | shadej: Alright, can you please stop apache, and then pastebin `netstat -tlp`? | 20:41 |
| Flannel | shadej: and while you're at it, please pastebin your ports.conf, I just want to be sure we're all on the same page. | 20:41 |
| rfwef | hi | 20:43 |

| shadej | Flannel: the ports.conf file | 20:45 |
| shadej | http://pastebin.com/ZAUYZrqK | 20:45 |
| varunendra | poppingtonic, or you can use this script to generate a detailed diagnostics info report on your wireless : http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=12350385 | 20:46 |
| shadej | Flannel: the netstat -tlp | 20:47 |
| shadej | http://pastebin.com/QPn2Vp2K | 20:47 |
| Flannel | shadej: Ok, the latter tells us that we aren't conflicting with any other services. Your ports.conf, your line 16 (see the pastebin) should be Listen 443 not Listen 80. | 20:48 |
| * poppingtonic does that | 20:49 | |
| shadej | Flannel: so i am changing it to listen 443 ? | 20:50 |
| Flannel | shadej: Correct. | 20:50 |
| pfifo | shadej, careful, he said line 16, the one at the bottom | 20:50 |
| Flannel | The second one. | 20:50 |
| Flannel | The third one is already 443 | 20:50 |
| pfifo | right, no tls involved here | 20:51 |
| shadej | Flannel: and pfifo problem solve | 20:51 |
| shadej | :-D | 20:51 |
| shadej | *solved | 20:51 |
| Flannel | shadej: Good to hear. | 20:51 |
| shadej | Flannel: thank you very much | 20:51 |
| pfifo | really? that was causing segfaults? | 20:52 |
| shadej | pfifo: you were with me almost the whole day | 20:52 |
| shadej | thank you too | 20:52 |
| shadej | pfifo: yeah who knows | 20:52 |
| poppingtonic | varunendra: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5769034/ | 20:53 |
| Sanjay_ | Get free traffic for website http://t.co/EP8Z5I1EMu | 20:53 |
| shadej | may there could be a procedure who is trying to read from a socket where port number is not succesfully allocated | 20:53 |
| pfifo | I hope that line didnt get installed by default, or were going to be facing this problem all the time | 20:53 |
| Flannel | pfifo: That was causing apache to try to listen to :80 twice, obviously the second time it couldn't. | 20:55 |
| pfifo | shadej, now, you need to continue with the guide, it seemed like you got stuck halfway through. | 20:55 |
| Baribal | Hi. I want to sync files between few computers, one of which qualifies as a server. I want syncing to be automagically, Dropbox-style: Moving a file into a designated folder should replicate it on all involved machines ASAP. What package can you recommend? | 20:55 |
| shadej | pfifo: yeah | 20:55 |
| shadej | i will | 20:55 |
| varunendra | poppingtonic, it shows "hard blocked : yes", which means wireless is disabled by hardware switch. Do you have a physical switch or a 'Fn' key combination to toggle the wireless on/off? Try toggling it. | 20:55 |
| shadej | but how could this happen? | 20:55 |
| Flannel | shadej: to fix your FQDN issue: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP#Troubleshooting_Apache | 20:56 |
| shadej | who put that listen 80 | 20:56 |
| pfifo | Flannel, yeah, but that shouldnt cause a segfault... you can read() and write() to a null socket successfully. | 20:56 |
| Flannel | shadej: Somewhere along the line, you edited that file to make that 80 instead of 443. | 20:56 |
| Flannel | pfifo: What segfaults are you talking about? | 20:56 |
| pfifo | Flannel, the ones in his error.log http://pastebin.com/K3UjcuPq | 20:56 |
| zykotick9 | Baribal: my go-to sync is rsync, but with your "requirements" i'd look at unison. good luck. | 20:57 |
| Baribal | Thanks. | 20:58 |
| zykotick9 | meLon: try "source ~/.bashrc" perhaps | 20:58 |
| Flannel | pfifo: that's on the shutdown side, not the startup side. | 20:58 |
| Flannel | pfifo: so, I'm not sure what's causing it, but it's unrelated. | 20:59 |
| pfifo | I say we ignore it then and just settle for a working setup | 21:00 |
| shadej | Flannel: a little question again | 21:04 |
| shadej | [Sat Jun 15 18:02:46 2013] [warn] _default_ VirtualHost overlap on port 443, the first has precedence | 21:04 |
| Flannel | shadej: You have more than one virtual host listening on 443. default-ssl and some other one. | 21:04 |
| shadej | ok | 21:05 |
| pfifo | Flannel, is that FQDN problem something I should worry about? Ive always known howto fix it but never bothered. | 21:06 |
| Flannel | pfifo: It's not something to *worry* about, but there are cases where it helps. Since it's trivial to fix, I say fix it ;) | 21:10 |
| shadej | pfifo: my .htaccess file is not working as expected it to [or as it was working before enabling https] | 21:10 |
| shadej | RewriteEngine on | 21:10 |
| shadej | RewriteRule user.php admin.php | 21:10 |
| Baribal | zykotick9, unison seems to require manual triggering, too. Which could be done by cron, of course, but do you know whether it handles parallel instances well? | 21:11 |
| pfifo | shadej, you may need to drop a few directives in your 443 virtual host to tell it to use an .htaccess | 21:11 |
| shadej | aha.. | 21:11 |
| ss_haze | kdenlive bugs me out again with not installed libx264 | 21:11 |
| shadej | allowoverride all | 21:12 |
| shadej | ? | 21:12 |
| ss_haze | what should I do to get h264 format or avi to work with it | 21:12 |
| ThePendulum | How do I disable the on-screen keyboard that appears when my screen is locked? | 21:12 |
| pfifo | shadej, yeah, allowoverride all... or whatever is acceptable to overrider | 21:13 |
| shadej | yeah it is working | 21:13 |
| ss_haze | I have new ubuntu installation | 21:13 |
| ss_haze | I haven't added kdenlive repo like last time | 21:14 |
| Greygan | ThePendulum: Round icon in the upper right of screen (In Gnome anyway) click it and untick onscreen kb | 21:14 |
| ss_haze | why h264 doesnt work with Ubuntu in KDENLIVE? | 21:14 |
| ss_haze | 32 bit i5 system, standart ubuntu 12.04 I have | 21:14 |
| Greygan | ThePendulum: otherwise it is in system settings / universal settings | 21:15 |
| ss_haze | I run wizard again and it clearly doesn't works | 21:16 |
| th0r | ss_haze: have you installed libx264? | 21:18 |
| ThePendulum | Greygan: That's only for the onscreen keyboard when logged in | 21:18 |
| ss_haze | there is no such named library | 21:18 |
| ThePendulum | I have that disabled | 21:18 |
| ThePendulum | But for some reason it keeps appearing when locked | 21:18 |
| th0r | ss_haze: open a terminal and type 'sudo apt-get install libx264-120 | 21:19 |
| Greygan | ThePendulum: not sure then. thats where mine is enabled and I only see it at login / unlock... | 21:19 |
| ss_haze | I have | 21:19 |
| ss_haze | again this problem comes | 21:19 |
| th0r | ss_haze: have you enabled the universe repo? | 21:19 |
| ss_haze | ok lets see | 21:20 |
| ss_haze | I guess | 21:20 |
| ThePendulum | Greygan: Ah, wait. I had to enable it, then go to the on-screen keyboard settings, and disable the lockscreen keyboard there | 21:20 |
| Greygan | ThePendulum: try this ... http://askubuntu.com/questions/84050/how-do-i-disable-the-on-screen-keyboard-in-the-unlock-screen | 21:20 |
| ss_haze | precise-security , updates and backports are there | 21:21 |
| Greygan | ThePendulum: ahh | 21:21 |
| ss_haze | I have standart installation, why the hell on standart you don't get something, even with Ubuntu restricted installed | 21:21 |
| ss_haze | even my old PC doesn't give this crap | 21:21 |
| th0r | ss_haze: that attitude gets you nowhere | 21:22 |
| checoimg | Does anyone know how to compile the Linux kernel ? Or get the sources ? | 21:22 |
| ss_haze | I know | 21:22 |
| pfifo | !mainstream | checoimg | 21:22 |
| ss_haze | but why I have to struggle with codecs, when I have every package I need | 21:22 |
| checoimg | pfifo : ??? | 21:22 |
| pfifo | !kernel | checoimg | 21:23 |
| ubottu | checoimg: The core of Ubuntu is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, and if you need to troubleshoot issues, you can try a !Mainline kernel instead, but if you insist, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile (see also !Stages) | 21:23 |
| pfifo | checoimg, sorry, seems !mainstream doesnt do the same anymore | 21:23 |
| checoimg | I want to learn how to compile it | 21:24 |
| checoimg | pfifo : Ok no problem | 21:24 |
| Greygan | http://www.wikihow.com/Compile-the-Linux-Kernel | 21:24 |
| pfifo | checoimg, actually you want to learn to configure it for compiling, thats the hard part, the actual build part is one simple command | 21:25 |
| pfifo | !mainline | checoimg | 21:25 |
| ubottu | checoimg: The kernel team supply continuous mainline kernel builds which can be useful for tracking down issues or testing recent changes in the Linux kernel. More information is available at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds | 21:25 |
| pfifo | there we go | 21:25 |
| checoimg | ubottu : I want to compile for a i5-480M | 21:26 |
| ubottu | checoimg: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 21:26 |
| ss_haze | I have ubuntu-restricted-extras | 21:27 |
| ss_haze | why video can't remder in any format kdenlive | 21:27 |

| checoimg | Ok | 21:28 |
| ss_haze | WHY? | 21:28 |
| ss_haze | kdenlive wizard told me I have all the formats, but why I can't render in them | 21:29 |
| ss_haze | Unsupported video codec: libx264 | 21:29 |
| labsin | ss_haze: Had those issue to. Will try and find what I did to solve it | 21:29 |
| ss_haze | Unsupported video codec: libxvid | 21:29 |
| ss_haze | I did this once, and never came to reason why | 21:29 |
| ss_haze | I installed from repos, and the version also came wrong | 21:30 |
| ss_haze | then removed sunab repo, and again it was working | 21:30 |
| ss_haze | but now I don't have any repos | 21:30 |
| SP33D | ok i have a neard question :D i wanna learn and use something new but be save that it don't fails | 21:30 |
| ss_haze | I have clean setup with brand new ubuntu, and I don't get codecs... | 21:30 |
| pfifo | SP33D, learn nethack | 21:31 |
| SP33D | i am planing to add one line to a existing file via: echo "line text" | tee /etc/bla.conf | 21:31 |
| ss_haze | SP33D, try python as calculator | 21:31 |
| SP33D | will that work? | 21:31 |
| ss_haze | never fails | 21:31 |
| ashutosh | i have installed ubuntu 13.04...i am getting sound through my laptop speakers but not via headphones ...plz help me | 21:31 |
| SP33D | will this add the line? | 21:31 |
| pfifo | SP33D, you want tee -a | 21:32 |
| SP33D | a means append probally thx | 21:32 |
| SP33D | yes i am not familary with that but i wanna use it :D since i used it yesterday to creat a new file i tought its a good way to create small files | 21:32 |
| pfifo | yes it does, most usage of tee is also combined with sudo too | 21:33 |
| SP33D | right that i now wanna use it to add a package source | 21:33 |
| SP33D | to the list file | 21:33 |
| SP33D | hope it works | 21:33 |
| ss_haze | miracle happened | 21:33 |
| labsin | ss_haze: can you do ´sudo apt-get install libavcodec-dev´ | 21:33 |
| pfifo | SP33D, if you dont need sudo then you can simply `echo 'myline' >> myfile` | 21:34 |
| ss_haze | I got codecs back, by third time deleting kdenliverc file | 21:34 |
| ss_haze | so hardcore | 21:34 |
| SP33D | i need sudo since its the apt package list | 21:34 |
| SP33D | :D | 21:34 |

| bertieb | Howdy folks, quick question- either in eg AbiWrod or the standard print dialogue, is there a way to print 4 copies (ie duplicates) on a single page? I know about the "pages per sheet" toption, but that only seems to apply if you have more than one page. Combining mupltiple pages per sheet and more than 1 copy doesn't seem to have the desired behaviour in print preview. WHere's the secret 'do what I mean' option I'm missing? :) | 21:41 |

| ashutosh | i have installed ubuntu 13.04...i am getting sound through my laptop speakers but not via headphones ...plz help me | 21:44 |
| bertieb | Sure, I could duplicate the page multiple times and use the multiple pages per sheet option, but then when the page is updated I'd have to remember to update the other copies. I'd like to know the Right Way to do it if possible | 21:44 |
| pfifo | crf, this could be related to a missing .pc file in /usr/lib/pkgconfig as well, does `pkg-config gtkglext` say anything useful? | 21:48 |
| pfifo | crf, sorry, `pkg-config --cflags --libs gtkglext` | 21:49 |
| crf | thanks pfifo, there was a clue: it needed the pangox to be installed | 21:49 |
| crf | pfifo, pkg-config gtkglext-1.0 works | 21:50 |
| bertieb | Aha, got it, eg: print pages: 1,1,1,1 + 4 pages per sheet has the intended behaviour in case anyone is interested :) | 21:51 |

| ultraParadigm | Are there any window environments that still play well with Compiz? sofar I have had issues this week with Unity, XFCE, and GNOME 3.8 | 23:38 |
| pfifo | SonikkuAmerica, mouseover, im pretty sure it leaves stuff in /etc alone unless it has to make a change, in which case it makes a backup... that way you dont lose custom configs | 23:39 |
| SonikkuAmerica | ultraParadigm: MATE? Compiz is kind of on life support right now... | 23:39 |
| * ultraParadigm is sad | 23:39 | |
| ultraParadigm | Man that sucks. I love compiz | 23:39 |
| pfifo | ultraParadigm, I would attempt using openbox myself | 23:40 |
| ultraParadigm | Maybe I'll try the old Gnome classic first. and if that doesn't work then openbox. | 23:40 |
| kostkon | ultraParadigm, 13.10 will be the last release with compiz as its compositor | 23:40 |
| ultraParadigm | and if that doesn't work I'll just cry tears of mourning | 23:41 |
| ultraParadigm | Unity doesn't use Compiz anymore does it? | 23:41 |
| pfifo | tars of mourning fix everything | 23:41 |
| kostkon | ultraParadigm, it does | 23:41 |
| ultraParadigm | Compiz + Unity = too slow | 23:41 |
| SonikkuAmerica | pfifo: Tars? Umm... today we use tarBALLS | 23:41 |
| ultraParadigm | Yeah I remember now, I had compiz with unity, it was just really slow | 23:42 |
| ultraParadigm | Right now I have compiz with Gnome 3.1 minus gnome-shell, and it's paradise, other than crashing out everything I change something in any program | 23:43 |
| SonikkuAmerica | !GNOME | ultraParadigm: Have you tried GNOME Shell itself? | 23:44 |
| ubottu | ultraParadigm: Have you tried GNOME Shell itself?: GNOME is the default !desktop environment on Ubuntu up to 10.10 To install it from Kubuntu or Xubuntu, type « sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop » in a !terminal. | 23:44 |
| SonikkuAmerica | NO !! WRONG FACTOID! | 23:44 |
| SonikkuAmerica | !gnome-shell | 23:44 |
| pfifo | !gnome3 | 23:45 |
| ubottu | GNOME 3 is the desktop environment on which Unity is based. To use GNOME Shell instead of Unity, install the "gnome-shell" package and investigate "gnome-tweak-tool". GNOME 3 is not supported under Natty/11.04, and may break your system if installed from alternate sources. | 23:45 |
| SonikkuAmerica | pfifo: thx for the bailout... these factoids need a serious rewrite. | 23:50 |
| cccman | Gentlemen, Why does Ubuntu boot into a initfs prompt and will not boot anytime you have to crash or it crashes | 23:53 |
| pfifo | cccman, to give you an opportunity to fix whats wrong | 23:55 |
| EDocToor | cccman, when that happened to me... ti also had an error message.. did you get an error message | 23:56 |
| FOAD | Hi, how do I automatically add selected text to the clipboard? | 23:59 |
