vadiapt-cache policy for a specific package is saying: "Version table:      4:4.8.1-0ubuntu5~precise1~test1 0         100 /var/lib/dpkg/status" - how can I make it forget that? It is screwing over other packages and isn't installable anyhow00:14
wheatthinresizt0r, ftsab permissions00:14
mutanteresizt0r: and it will look exactly like an FTP client but be secure00:14

MrWeb20Hey Ubuntu. I just shrunk the size of one of my drives in Windows, and then installed Ubuntu onto the unallocated space. I can see the partition properly in Ubuntu, but now it's completely missing in Windows. I don't even see it in disk management, though I know it's there. Thoughts?00:18
samuelanyone with software to enhance Pc perfomance pls?00:18
mutanteMrWeb20: that sounds all completely normal, you'll need to use a 3rd party tool to access the Linux file system from Windows00:19

ubottusamuel, please see my private message00:21
MrWeb20Thanks for the replies. Let me re-explain something, I wasn't clear. On the disk, I shrunk my ntfs partition, and created a ext4 and swap partition in the free space. Then I installed Ubuntu onto the ext4. But there is still a very large ntfs partition. I can see it in Ubuntu, but I can't see the ntfs partition in Windows. In fact, the entire disk is missing from the disk manager.00:21
mutantesamuel: bacula, amanda00:21
LjLsamuel: please don't ask so many questions without even waiting for a reply. as to "software to enhance your PC performance", that's way too generic. you need to know what's hindering its performance to enhance them.00:22

MrWeb20Gabboz: Three drives. One 250GB, with Windows installed on it. One 1TB that has one single ntfs partition, and a second 1TB that has a 800+GB ntfs partition, and now has a 116GB ext4 and 4GB swap. The 2nd 1TB is the one that is missing in Windows now.00:24
Tex_NickGabboz: yeah i just noticed ... guess i'm talking to myself ;-)00:24
wilee-nileeMrWeb20, If you resized the windows ntfs it usually needs a chkdsk, might ths be needed.00:24

MrWeb20Gabboz: The volume in question is missing from the disk manager tool (mmc console)00:25
GabbozMrWeb20, the only ones that wont check without reboot are the OS and the partition(if it isnt on OS HD)00:26
wilee-nileeMrWeb20, I would do it from the terminal on a recovery or install disc, however you can set one to run at reboot by runing the disc exam from computer with a right click on it.00:26
GabbozMrWeb20, a chkdsk is a good idea anyway.. especially if Windows didn't force it after you resized a partition00:26
GabbozMrWeb20, can you mount said partition in ubuntu?  is there data on it already?00:26
MrWeb20Gabboz: Yep, and yep.00:27

MrWeb20Hey #Ubuntu. I'm still having problems getting windows to see the ntfs partition that I have on the same disk as Ubuntu, after installing Ubuntu earlier today. I can mount the partition fine in Ubuntu, and gparted shows the ntfs partition. But I can't see it in Windows anymore. Ideas?00:52

histo_MrWeb20: You have more than one ntfs partition?00:53
MrWeb20The mmc doesn't show the volume at all, daftykins00:53
MrWeb20histo_, yes, but not on that volume. That volume has three partitions. A 814 GB ntfs, a 117GB ext4, and a 4GB swap00:53
histo_MrWeb20: what does the other volume have?00:54
daftykinsMrWeb20: had you tried scheduling a disk check as someone said?00:54
BALTA00I think don't go back to Windows :)00:54

MrWeb20One 1 TB ntfs, and a 250GB ntfs (three volumes total)00:54
daftykinsBALTA00: don't make stupid comments in here please00:54
MrWeb20daftykins, I tried that, but I couldn't figure out how to do that without Windows being able to see the volume.00:55
histoMrWeb20: is the other "volume" an external drive?00:55
daftykinsMrWeb20: so it boots fine but it can't even realise what it's running from? :D00:55

Ben64WiCkEd_: why go backwards?00:56
daftykinsWiCkEd_: not really no :( you would have to clean install, but you could keep your /home if it's a separate partition00:56
MrWeb20daftykins, sda is a 250GB disk that has the Windows OS installed on it. sdb is for storage, all ntfs, and windows sees it just fine. sdc is the troubled volume, which Ubuntu boots from.00:56

MrWeb20histo, it's an issue that was caused by the install, and I've never had this issue before. Just looking for a bit of wisdom00:57
MrWeb20histo, gparted, or the Windows mmc?00:57
WiCkEd_Ben64_: honestly, and this is probably the wrong answer, I downloaded a game from linux game from steam but for the life of me can't get the damn thing to run in 13.04...The game is supported for 12.10..that's all I'm going off of00:57
daftykinsMrWeb20: oooooh i thought they were both on one disk. Windows can't read the partitions anyway so why do you want it to?00:57
histoMrWeb20: sudo parted -l | pastebinit    in linux  and then in windows paste a screen shot of the disk management screen.00:58
MrWeb20daftykins, my third disk is the issue. It has an ntfs partition used to store videos, and windows can't see it anymore after the ubuntu install on an ext4 partition on the same volume00:58
Ben64WiCkEd_: you may want to use 12.04 then, its supported until 201700:58
histoWiCkEd_: there is a script floating around to create a 12.10 linux container and run steam from there.00:59
MrWeb20histo, kk, that'll take me a couple of minutes, with a reboot. I'll do the pastebin first00:59
histoMrWeb20: k00:59
daftykinsMrWeb20: i wonder if you didn't acidentally select 'erase disk and install'00:59

armingno02:24
reisioarming: is that qemu or kvm?02:24

reisiodon't have the extensions for kvm?02:25

Duke_Can someone please help me? I'm new to Unix02:25
reisioDuke_: help you with what?02:25
Duke_reisio: How do I edit C files in Text Mode02:25

reisioEmacs is another complex one02:26
vee_any other advise?02:26
armingwell02:26
reisioif you don't already have it (run 'type nano'), you can sudo apt-get install nano02:26
reisiovee_: about?02:26
nevyngedit, kate, scite are all reasonable options too02:26
Duke_What do you suggest? And Oh I didn't mean to say yes to your X question. I don't know what you mean by X, but I have Ubuntu 12.04 I just started it in Text mode02:26
SonikkuAmericaYou might ask in ##linux while you're at it, to get exposed to the vi vs. Emacs war02:26

ubottuMrKB: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family-friendly, polite, and professional.02:37
MrKBthe only people that would know what that contraction meant is people that already knew what it meant. In other words, if you have virgin ears (which I'm assuming is what we're trying to preserve), you wouldn't know what it meant. So no harm done :P02:38
IdleOneMrKB: Nice try, mind your language please.02:38
MrKBI'll try :P02:38
MrKBreisio - what was it specifically that #ubuntu people explained to me that was easy? Everything or were you referring to something specific? XD02:38
histoMrKB: is the rtl8192cu module blacklisted?02:39
reisioMrKB: dunno, somethin'02:39
nevynMrKB: so is rtl1892cu part of the stack that 8192cu includes?02:39
MrKBlol reisio02:39
MrKBhisto - nevyn - no idea02:39
nevynso it could be a simple thing to blacklist rtl8192cu02:39
MrKBhow would go about doing that02:40
armingMrKB: FATAL: Module 8192cu not found.02:40
MrKBarmin - hm?02:40
histoMrKB: grep 'rtl8129' /etc/modprobe.d/*02:40
MrKBwhat does that do02:40
histoMrKB: searches all your blacklist files for that module02:41
arminghisto: output nothing02:41
w0lfsenWarning: Newbie question. I do not have sound and do not know how I can find the driver. I think I have to know which DKMS I use but I have no idea where I can find that information. Help would be much appreciated02:41
MrKBoh ok. one sec histo02:41

histoarming: not you.. that was for MrKB02:41
reisioMrKB: oh right, synergy without GUI02:41
histoMrKB: you could also add command in rc.local to reload the module02:41
MrKBwhat does my synergy having no GUI have to do with anything reisio02:41

MrKBreisio - oh. yeah. :) But I think I did that by myself O_O. maybe that's why you said that.02:42
* reisio shrugs02:43
MrKBhisto - grep outputted nothing. So does that mean it's not blacklisted?02:43
vee_feed the beast still wont launch :(02:43
MrKBhow would I go about adding the command to rc.local? Although that seems to be a bit of a workaround. :P I'd love to find the root of the problem02:43
w0lfsenreisio: I played some of my music but I do not hear anything. The sound panel seems to work properly. Indicates that it plays.02:43
arming so what to do without module 8192cu?02:44

histoMrKB: search askubuntu for rtl8129cu or whatever you chipset is called02:44
=== Logan_ is now known as Guest15447

histoMrKB: see if others have found a fix for the issue you are experiencing without the workaround you are currently using.02:45
histoMrKB: also you maybe able to use a different module from realtek02:45
MrKBwill be using lol02:45
MrKBOh ok cool02:45
MrKBSo how do I add the commands to the rc.local02:46
MrKB(whatever that is)02:46
Tex_Nickreisio: never seen memo before ... just looked into ... that's cool02:46
MrKBreisio you send memos to everyone? I thought I was special :(02:46

w0lfsenBleusKaj okay I did that. Did not give any feedback. Is that normal?02:47
BluesKajw0lfsen, if the audio mutes upon headphone connection,02:47

MrKBhisto - how to add to rc.local02:48
SaikiTex_Nick: I installed all the fonts and language support. the only thing I can think of is the shall script isnt;t using the right locale02:48
histoMrKB: sudo nano /etc/rc.local02:50
histoMrKB: or gksu gedit /etc/rc.local02:51
reisiohow do you imagine probing a driver and restarting is going to help him? :p02:51
vee_could the blank screen be caused by me using dwm?02:51
MrKBthanks histo02:51
MrKBreisio: You're talking about me, aren't you? XD02:51
reisioMrKB: nope02:51
historeisio: he's saying it works after he unloads the module and reloads it02:51
BluesKajreisio, because forcing alsa to reload doesn't usually work02:51
historeisio: ahh nvm02:51
MrKBlol histo02:52
MrKBI thought the same thing02:52

MrWeb20Hey histo, still around?02:58
here4thegearI'm being absolutely driven nuts by an issue that I'm 100% sure that I caused. my VPS WAS Karmic (9.10)... a few months ago, I went through the process of upgrading to Maverick. All seemed well but lsb_release -a still lists as Karmic and, maverick repos aren't working02:59

xanguahere4thegear: since two years ago...03:01
MrWeb20Hey histo. I solved my issue. I don't know what caused it, but in Windows I used a tool called the Dynamic Disk Converter in order to convert it to a basic disk - without data loss - and it worked. Thanks for the help.03:01
wilee-nileehere4thegear, 12.04 s the earliest supported release at this time.03:01

histoMrWeb20: nice... like I said windows issue03:01
histoMrWeb20: ubuntu did not make it a "dynamic disk" I ensure you of that.03:01
MrWeb20histo: Well, a windows solution at least. Something definitely happened with the gparted that started it all, but who knows what.03:02
wilee-nileeMrWeb20, I wondered if the disc had not gone dynamic.03:02

wilee-nileehisto, Yeah and the number of partitions was correct, go figger.03:03
MrWeb20Yep. Oh well, just glad it's working. I'll get around to reinstalling ubuntu later this week. Take care03:03
wilee-nileeMrWeb20, You want to be aware of partition types and how many is all.03:04
histowilee-nilee: I'm pretty sure it was this bizarre 1MB partition he had at the begining of the drive03:05

BluesKajw0lfsen, your driver is installed and is loading ...so it's some other problem. I assume you are using an onboard sound chip03:13
w0lfsenBluesKaj the graphic driver does not seem to work either. Maybe it is the whole intel driver package. I cannot change the brightness of the screen either. I can change the brightness in xubuntu but it does not do anything03:13
w0lfsenBluesKaj you assume correctly. Both graphic and sound are on board03:14
w0lfsenBleusKaj while googling I found this: https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-audio-dev/+archive/alsa-daily/+packages but I do not know which one to install. Or is this nonsense?03:15

w0lfsenlotuspsychje thank you for your help. I will try to get help from them tomorrow. I would not see a reason why I could not handle ubuntu. The laptop is two years old or so03:28
w0lfsenlotuspsychje *it could not handle03:28
lotuspsychjew0lfsen: i really recommend ubuntu 13.04 (64bit)03:28
w0lfsenlotuspsychje  a friend of mine recommended xubuntu since it is easier for newbs like me.03:29
wilee-nileelotuspsychje, I didn't keep the installs very long, but this was more than a month ago probably about 2.03:29
lotuspsychjew0lfsen: you will forget your windows soon, well ubuntu with unity is easy aswell03:29
w0lfsenBluesKaj wb. Problem not solved so far. I checked the driver section and stuff.03:29
lotuspsychjewilee-nilee: im all excited about retail ubuntu tablets, hope thay come out soon :p03:30

mob001hi, tomcat clustering on ubuntu 10.04 using mod_jk connector. pls help on this.03:34
lotuspsychjew0lfsen: did you enabled codecs and download and download updates during install in your setup?03:34
lotuspsychjemob001: you can try #ubuntu-server aswell mate03:35
Tex_Nicklotuspsychje:  i just bought a Nexus 7 for the grandkids ... i want to install ubuntu on it, but they won't turn it loose long enough for me to do so03:36
w0lfsenlotuspsyche I think so. I think this is also signified by the fact that I can start all my mp3s without a problem03:36
lotuspsychjeTex_Nick: cool, well like wilee-nilee here says, it might be still little rough..i think we better wait a little longer03:37

lotuspsychjeill wait until the #ubuntu-touch guys work it all out for us :p03:41
lotuspsychjew0lfsen: i would try a 13.04 clean, see what it does for your laptop mate03:42
lotuspsychjew0lfsen: installed this version on more then 10 machines, and didnt have 1 driver issue yet..03:43
w0lfsenlotuspsyche that's annoying I have to admit but what can  I do...thanks. Maybe trying ubuntu then and not xubuntu if you think that makes a difference03:43
lotuspsychjew0lfsen: it might, but if you still wanna choose xubuntu's speed an easyness, stick to re-ask your issue mate03:43
lotuspsychjew0lfsen: its all about your needs03:43
w0lfsenlotuspsyche not sure. I do not need much: Just multitasking: several word documents and pdf some other progs and the normal internet jazz, huge TB, skype, vsee, jitsi, etc.03:44
w0lfsenlotuspsyche I like speed and easy. But so far it is not that easy. I mean everything is very intuitve and such but I cannot things work, so that's not that accommodating ;)03:45
lotuspsychjew0lfsen: if you like unity, 13.04 will workout fine for your laptop03:46
w0lfsenlotuspsyche what is unity?03:46
lotuspsychje!unity | w0lfsen03:46
ubottuw0lfsen: Unity is the default UI since Ubuntu 11.04.  Unity is a shell for GNOME. see http://unity.ubuntu.com. For a GNOME 2-like experience, see !notunity03:46
=== _BJFreeman is now known as BJfreeman
w0lfsenlotuspsyche sure! Why not. :)03:46
w0lfsenbtw since I saw you talking about it. Regarding options for encryption and data security what smart phone OS is the best?03:47
lotuspsychjew0lfsen: well we can only support ubuntu issues in here mate03:47
w0lfsenlotuspsyche have a similar wealth of knowledge about smartphones as about linux O_o03:47
lotuspsychjew0lfsen: but you try #ubuntu-touch if you wanna know more03:48
lotuspsychje!touch | w0lfsen03:48
ubottuw0lfsen: Information about the Ubuntu Touch platform for Phone and Tablet is available here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch support and discussion in #ubuntu-touch03:48

holstein!best | coolack04:25
ubottucoolack: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots.04:25
holsteinyou can apply that to distros. ."better" is a matter of opinion04:25

wiggmpkI want to know how to add a bookmark under the category "Computer" in nautilus. Adding a bookmark via the "Bookmarks" menu segregates in a different category which drives my OCD wild. (using gnome-shell / ubuntu 12.04)04:31
BitwiseJordan_U, I already have it installed but it's older. I'm trying to get a newer version, I already tried to simply upgrade it.04:32
Jordan_Ucoolack: Yes, many commands, mostly those dealing with package management, will be different. That said, most commands will work exactly the same way (that is *not* to say that you should try to follow Fedora specific guides on Ubuntu or visa-versa).04:33
Jordan_UBitwise: Do you know what "build dependencies" are?04:33
BitwiseYes, I'm a developer.04:34
coolackin the fedora channel they would have called me an idiot for not knowing that lol04:34
holsteincoolack: i would just download a live CD, and try it.. get some actual first hand questions.. you likely wont be doing any pacakge management from the command line anytime soon04:34
holsteincoolack: also, as i said, fedora is OT here.. so please /joine the ot channel to discuss your experiences in the fedora channels.. thanks!04:35

coolackwith the ubuntu install?04:35
holsteincoolack: the installer will give you the options04:36
coolackok04:36
Jordan_Ucoolack: Yes, you can replace your Fedora installation with Ubuntu. Make sure that you back up any files from your Fedora installation first though.04:36
holsteinyou can dual boot fedora and ubuntu04:37
BitwiseCan someone aid me in updating gcc? I've gone through the standard procedure to no avail.04:37
coolackya no i want to wipe out fedora.  i'm dual booting with windows 704:38
holsteinBitwise: standard would be "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade".. what are you trying?04:38
holsteincoolack: the installer will present you options..04:38
Bitwiseholstein, I tried that, I tried to dl a mirror and compile and install, I tried the package manager etc04:38
holsteinBitwise: dl a mirror?04:39
Jordan_UBitwise: What part of my suggestion to run "sudo apt-get build-dep gcc" to install all needed build dependencies did you not understand?04:39
holsteinBitwise: gcc is in the repos.. if you want to upgrade, you just upgrade the system.. what are you doing?04:39
Bitwiseholstein, I tried the upgrade. It says it's up to date but it's not judging by --version.04:41
BitwiseJordan_U, All the dependencies were for Java. They aren't required for building from the source.04:41
Jordan_UBitwise: Please pastebin the complete output of "sudo apt-get build-dep gcc" and of "./configure" in gcc's source tree.04:42
Bitwisehttp://pastebin.com/HaFUGKTF04:44
Jordan_UBitwise: Also understand the complications of installing software from source without using the package manger, among other things that the files won't be know about by dpkg, and will need to be removed with "sudo make uninstall" from the source directory you used to run "sudo make install" from. Also, there are in between solutions like checkinstall, and the ideal solution is to build a *source package* of the newer version, though tha04:46

ubottufsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually.

Ashaelor you can try installing ubuntu again, maybe that will fix the dual boot and you'll have access to both.06:53

a111Is there a way to load everything apart from /home into a RAM disk when Ubuntu boots? Is there any downsides to doing it?08:14
MonkeyDusta111  sounds like a live session08:17
MonkeyDustmore or less08:17
DJonesa111: There is an application called preload which appears to load regularly used applications into memory so they start up quicker, I've never tried it so can't say how well it works, it doesn't really answer your question, but may be something to look at08:20
Tex_Nicka111: another question there might be ... are there any benefits ?08:20
JoeDMI don't see much point in running everything in RAM, It would be extremely volatile and exposed to a lot of errors.08:21
reisioyou would if you were rich :p08:21
ActionParsnipJoeDM: speed08:22
JoeDMIf I was rich I would be using SSD. Yeah its fast but ECC Memorys exist for a reason08:22
DJonesa111: Another question would be how much ram do you have, you may find it better to install an SSD rather than a spinning rust disk to spead things up08:22
a11132GB08:22
DJonesa111: Nice08:23
JoeDMI know a lot of people in the minecraft community like to run things on RAM so there must be a way08:23
Tex_NickDJones:  I tried the preload option on 13.04 on this box ... it's relatively new hardware ... i didn't see any speed increase ... i just did away with it a couple weeks ago ... it did slow by boot time down a bit08:23
JoeDMcheck this out https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BootToRAM08:23
somsipa111: preload might help you. Adding a load of oft-used software to start on loging might help you08:24
somsip*login08:24
Tex_NickDJones: i really should have posted that to a11108:25

peawormsworthDoes ubuntu support UHS-1 SD cards?08:30

JoeDMshould work if you have an interface for it08:34
JoeDMWith that said I have had a server which can't boot from a standard USB with ubuntu on it... So hardware may affect things08:35
minimecpeawormsworth: I don't see a problem with ubuntu and UHS-1. But you may not have the 'promised' speed, as UHS-1 cards need an approriate hardware to make fully use of the UHS standard.08:35
peawormsworthi dont know that I have an interface for it. I just see they are cheaper and have potential to be faster. Will they not work with backwards compatible hardware?08:35
somsippeawormsworth: a quick search suggests it's more about kernel compatibility08:36
JoeDMI didn't think they were any faster to be honest08:36

JoeDMIf you want somthing small and convinient to install ubuntu on that will definetly work you might want to look at a DOM (Disk on Module). just eBay for somthing like "8gb dom"08:40

silver_moonhi, i started something very important in a yakuake dropdown terminal , but the desktop is screwed up and the yakuake terminal is no more visible, i need to see the output in that yakuake terminal, how can i do this ?09:33
KomaIs your VPN server your gateway?09:33
reisiosilver_moon: I already told you09:33
silver_moonreisio: i cannot install any new packages :(09:34
reisiosilver_moon: why not?09:34
Komais the subnet that the vpn server giving to you the same subnet of the LAN ?09:34
silver_moonbecause already an apt-get process is running in that terminal09:34
Komaif yes there is a problem09:34
Gryllidawasanzy: openvpn is also the client, check docs at www.openvpn.net09:34
reisiosilver_moon: so?09:34
=== _BJFreeman is now known as BJfreeman
silver_moonso i cannot issue another apt-get install09:34
Komaelse add a routing to yhe vpn network via the openvpn server as gateway09:34
Gryllidawasanzy: so you'd have to also install it at the client machine09:34
Koma#openvpn09:34
reisiosilver_moon: I told you how to overcome that as well09:35
reisioyou don't appear to pay attention :/09:35
rudolf_Gryllida, when i ran that command, my screen went black for 2 seconds and then it happened.09:35
wasanzyI did install it on the client mechine so what else do I do?09:35
wasanzythe vpn is not my gateway and they are not in the same LAN09:35
Gryllidawasanzy: http://openvpn.net/index.php/open-source/documentation/howto.html#examples09:36
wasanzythat link is not opening09:37
Gryllidawasanzy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenVPN#Getting_Clients_Connected is official documentation on setting up the client09:37
wasanzyok09:37
rudolf_Gryllida, my laptop didnt actually turn off after that command I think. The screen went black for 2 seconds only.09:39
Gryllidarudolf_: what is the size of your swap partition, and the size of your RAM?09:40
rudolf_Gryllida, my swap is 1.98GB and RAM is 2.0 GB09:41
HonvaiWhat is the command to start irc server?09:42
Gryllidarudolf_: Increase swap and checking for the issue, or at least that's what that wiki page says...09:42
reisioHonvai: dpkg -L nameOfIRCServerPackage | grep bin09:42
reisioHonvai: alternatively, there might be a service you can start09:42
GryllidaHonvai: Which irc server? There are different deamons and you have to use different commands to start them.09:42
HonvaiHmm09:43
wasanzyGryllida: I have seen the page and is the same thing I did. my question is, I uses ssh to connect to the server, now that VPN is in place, do I use the same VPN? and how do I get to the exact server?09:43
wasanzyor do I need some kind of GUI?09:43
rudolf_Gryllida, ok. One thing more. I just noticed an exclamation sign near a ntfs partition in gparted. Is there some prob?09:44
Gryllidawasanzy: Just start the VPN service and then, when you connect to, say, 10.1.1.X (if lan is on 192.168.xxx.xxx), VPN will connect you to your server.09:44
jpdswasanzy: You can connect to the server, over SSH over the VPN.09:44
Gryllidarudolf_: Screenshot?09:45
rudolf_gryllida, ok..a min09:46
Gryllidawasanzy: What VPN does is take over a certain range and forward everything sent to it to your server. So you don't have to do special things other than set it up and connect to the proper server IP.09:46
owahiHi, I am having problems with my mouse.  My 1 year old pushed lots of buttons on the keyboard and now my touchpad won't work.  The mouse works fine with a USB mouse connected.  There is a touchpad deactivate key assigned to the Fn key on my laptop but this doesn't make it work.  My partner's laptop has had the same problem for quite some time now.  Can anyone help?09:47

MonkeyDustowahi  keep the super key pressed for a few seconds09:57
reisioLouwrens: help disown ?09:57
rudolf__Gryllida, you there?09:58
Gryllidarudolf__: It's not mounted, so probably no need to worry about it and hibernate.09:58
owahireisio: the touchpad works fine in the startup screen before I log in so no problems there.09:58
rudolf__Gryllida, see that exclamation mark? Why is it there? Is there some prob?09:59
wasanzysorry for my questions, but in this case, it means when I connect to the public IP, the VPN will be taking me to the lan where my server is?09:59
reisioowahi: what does 'xinput' say?09:59
jribLouwrens: why do you want to do this?  Give more details about what exactly you are doing and why09:59
owahiMonkeyDust: no luck with that.  any other options?09:59
LouwrensAlright, I  was so silly to run a lvresize command without running a screen session. Now I would like to disown the resize2fs process it spawned, but after hitting ctrl-z, I do not get a prompt to run bg and disown. possibly because lvresize runs a bash scipt...10:01
jribLouwrens: so you've hit ctrl-z but done nothing else at this point?10:01
flingping10:02
rudolf__reisio, can you tell what is that mark for in that pic?10:03
LouwrensI can hit ctrl-z and I see from another (ssh) session that resize2fs and the parent bash script /sbin/fsadm gets suspended, and I can continue them both with kill -CONT.... but I want to disown the process from the ssh shell10:03
jribLouwrens: is it listed in "jobs" output?10:03
LouwrensI cannot get a prompt to run jobs10:03
Gryllidarudolf__: Ok, it's not related to hibernate and it's a separate issue. You could try running a disk check on it and pastebin a full report. (A thing I didn't do myself; it could be «ntfsfix   /dev/sda8».)10:03
reisiorudolf__: pic?10:03
jribLouwrens: didn't you suspend the process?10:04
dopiehow do i kill firefox process?10:04

Louwrensit's lvresize that runs the bash script that runs the resize2fs command10:04

Gryllidareisio: Exclamation mark, «!».10:05
Gryllidawasanzy: What's up?10:05
Louwrensjrib: thanks for your time already!10:05

reisiosomething to do with a Windows filesystem10:05
reisioask #windows10:05
Gryllidareisio: With an NTFS filesystem and Ubuntu running a disk check on it.10:05

Tex_Nicki have tmpfs enabled on this box ... can i view the contents of tmpfs & copy files from & to tmpfs with nautilus ? df -h shows 1.6G available & 976K used10:05
Gryllidareisio: Ubuntu does support NTFS. It's not technically outside this channel scope. ;)10:05
jribLouwrens: also, if it's crucial that lvresize completes without you killing it, I would just leave it be10:05
reisioGryllida: no, he's running it, not Ubuntu10:05
owahireisio: Um, I will need help deciphering what it says.  Do you want me to post the results?10:05

Louwrensjrib: okay, I was going to do that. I am not going to try and see what happens if i close ssh or hit ctrl-c.10:06
rudolf__reisio, what do yo mean??10:06
Gryllidawasanzy: With VPN, you don't need to use public IPs. Use local IPs within the range you VPNed.10:06
Louwrensjrib: I just dont want to depend on the ssh line now...10:06
reisiorudolf__: about what?10:07
rudolf__reisio, "Gryllida: no, he's running it, not Ubuntu"10:07
Gryllidareisio: So where is he running Windows? He just has an ntfs partition, which Ubuntu complains about. I'd say asking what the nature of the complaint is could be fine.10:07

GryllidaBen64: I'd assume there are GUI tools for that?10:10
Ben64for pastebinning?10:10
GryllidaBen64: No, for disk checks.10:10
Ben64well, for ntfs you really should use windows10:11
reisioGryllida: the better way is in Windows10:11
wasanzyGryllida: so why do I have to add this in my client.conf? remote remoteIP 119410:11

Gryllidarudolf__: Do you have a er, Windows install available that you can boot into?10:11

rudolf__Checking the alternate boot sector... OKNTFS volume version is 3.1.NTFS partition /dev/sda8 was processed successfully.10:12
rudolf__Gryllida, yes I have10:12
Gryllidarudolf__: Is that all output that you get?10:12
wasanzyGryllida: no 1194 is the VPN port and that is to come after a public IP10:13
rudolf__Gryllida, yeah it gave only that much.10:13
Campfirewhat ubuntu distros are suported here10:13
Gryllidarudolf__: Might want to ask ##linux or, if you are willing to boot into Windows to run a disk check there, ##windows.10:13

rudolf__okies...gonna reboot10:14
Campfirety gr y10:14
Gryllidawasanzy: Yes, VPN client has to know the server's public IP. Once things work, there is no need to use that IP; you just use the 'local' IPs.10:14
MerlynKorr#ubuntu-offtopic10:14
Campfirewhats the difference of the server10:15

Campfirety again10:15
GryllidaCampfire: Server editions are supported a bit longer, so you see 10.04 server support, but not desktop support.10:16
wasanzyGryllida: but in this case, am trying to connect to the vpn server remotely, meaning the client is not in the same network as the VPN server, so how will it work with only local IP?10:16
ActionParsnipCampfire: they don't have a desltop UI either10:16
Campfireso like remote stuff for servers10:16
=== Motoservo_ is now known as Motoservo
Gryllidawasanzy: You need to use public IP to tell the client what server to connect to.10:17

wasanzyok10:18

lroyi download the latest AMD catalyst driver10:39
lroyand install it via the command line10:39
lroyi have a few computers10:39
Gryllidalroy: Doesn't Ubuntu work out of the box?10:39
lroyand its just this one card thats giving me trouble10:39
lroyit does10:40
lroybut i need the drivers10:40
MonkeyDust!latest10:40
ubottuPackages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa.10:40
Gryllidalroy: Why do you need the drivers?10:40
lroyso the machine can interact with the graphics card10:40
lroyand i know its supposed to work10:40
lroyi have done it with my other computers10:41

lroybut then i can only see it with "lspci"10:42
lroylike how do i display in HD and control the fans and overclock etc10:42
lroyi need the AMD drivers for that10:42

wasanzymy server is 192.168.1.100 that is the local IP11:25

gordonjcprschmitty: it took my mum roughly 10 seconds to get used to Unity12:55
bazhangghking, this is a debian install?12:55
rudolf_bazhang, you use aria2c right? Can you help me with setting the options?12:56
rschmittygood point, unity is probably better for older folks, nice big icons no "start menu"12:56
bazhangrudolf_, never used it, no12:57
acerimmerrudolf_, best practice is to download the iso, make a usb and clean install that puppy.  IMO.  Then again, I only install LTS so go figure.12:57
rudolf_bazhang, nut you suggested it...so i thought. :|12:57
bazhangacerimmer, I think you mean rschmitty12:58
acerimmerrudolf_ oh and "download" means torrent.  md5sum check is assumed.12:58
acerimmerbazhang, eeks.  too late.12:58
rudolf_acrimmer, so that means with every new version we need to reinstall all the softwares?12:58
vedicrschmitty: correct12:58
bazhangghking, Please do Not crosspost your debian questions here, thats for #debian alone12:59
vedicbazhang: Thanks12:59

mjuszczakI need a jre for Apache Directory Studio.  What's the recommended one for ubuntu?12:59
bazhang!java | mjuszczak13:00

If that is not sufficient you will need a "Java Development Kit" (JDK) aka "Software  Development Kit" (SDK).  Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java about how to install one of three current implementations.13:00

acerimmerbazhang, excellent suggestion13:03
rudolf_acerimmer, what is the difference between LTS and UBUNTU desktop?13:03
wheatthinLTS stands for long term support13:03
bazhangrudolf_, one has five years support the most recent only NINE months13:03
bazhangrudolf_, LTS = five years13:03
randomgryrudolf_: LTS is a name of version, the bit which says the Ubuntu version is supported for a long time. UBUNTU is the operating system name.13:03
acerimmerrudolf_, LTS is ubuntu.  Long Term Support.  on desktop versions, LTS is 3 years ... except 12.04 which has 5 years.  On server, LTS is supported for 5 years.13:04
rudolf_But why is new ubuntu desktop released every 6 months and LTS every 2 years?13:04
acerimmerrudolf_, in my case, I use Ubuntu Studio.  Latest version 12.04 and supported until 17.04.  Next LTS version will be 14.04.13:05
=== BradCrittenden is now known as bac
bazhangrudolf_, thats beyond the knowledge or scope of this channel, (the new shorter nine month support cycle)13:05
acerimmerrudolf_, consider the non-LTS to be bleeding edge test version ...13:05
rudolf_ok...means non-LTS versions are continuously tested and when they are stable enough they get converted into LTS?13:06
rudolf_Thats why new LTS version takes 2 years?13:06
rudolf_Am i right acerimmer ?13:07
acerimmerrudolf_, formulating my response ...13:07
rudolf_Just telling you what I understood from your response. :)13:07
rudolf_ok thanks :)13:08
acerimmerrudolf_, non-LTS do not "convert" to LTS.  LTS is arguably subject to a more rigorous testing cycle and does not include all the latest shiny stuff that the interim releases have.  On the other hand, for a production environment, 3 - 5 years of support is quite attractive.13:09

adamk_MathCubes: I recommend trying another 3D game that isn't as hard on the GPU and see if the problem persists.  Something like neverball.15:13
JoeDMcan you try inserting the ubuntu CD then at the menu select "Boot from first hard drive" This should boot a grub for you at which point you should be able to boot the system and check grub config.15:13
MathCubesIt work just fine under windows.15:13
JikagI am receiving a report from a user that they are unable to disable DHCP, he says " As soon as I change the setting from DHCP to  manual, the button at the bottom of the window that says "Save" greys  out and can not be selected."15:13
JoeDMif not then Rescue Mode15:13
MathCubesAnd I want to play with my friends15:13
JikagDoes anyone know what might be common cause of this?15:13
adamk_MathCubes: This is not windows, so the fact that it works there is completely irrelevent.15:14
Adrian179Hello15:14
JoeDMJikag he needs to put in a valid static setting to save the configuration15:14
adamk_MathCubes: Again, try a simpler game just to see what happens./15:14
Adrian179Does anybody knows how to configur Coova Chilli?15:14
JikagJoeDM: Thanks15:14
MathCubesI know but you are sying it is the cpu but... if it was then why does windows run it just fine?15:14
MathCubesI will try neverball one15:15
Adrian179Hmm...?15:15
JoeDMyou can disable the interface by modifying the /etc/network/interface file. add a "#" before the word "auto ethX"15:15
adamk_MathCubes: I said nothing about your CPU.15:15
MathCubesgpu15:15
adamk_And, in case you hadn't noticed, Windows uses a different graphics system than Linux, and therefore uses different drivers.15:15
JoeDMthen you need to restart networking by either "service networking restart" or "/etc/init.d/networking restart"15:16

Adrian179Hi GiBy15:18
ActionParsnipJoeDM: doesn't disable it, it just isnt brought up at boot time :)15:18
adamk_JoeDM: This isn't a forum, it's IRC :-)  You type the person's nick, followed by a colon or comma usually, and then say what you want...  If you want to send a message that only that user can see, you use the /msg command. You really should not do that without asking the user first.  There are lots of good tutorials on using IRC on the internet.15:19

adamk_And if the problem persisted, then report it as a bug.15:30

ikoniaKrisHansen: not really the best reasonsing really is it16:34
KrisHansenikonia: not exactly nut yes16:34
ikoniaKrisHansen: maybe why don't you ask people "I hve this problem...can you help" rather than making up random things like "people are hacking me" so people don't waste time trying to get information for a false problem, like I've just done16:35

tkingtaimel cant i give permistion to the directory???18:36
ezra-staime1, if smbd is not up try running it manually instead of the init/upstart script18:36
ezra-ssee what it says when you try to run it18:36
taime1tking: of course you can, but it has default permissions for a reason. You are making this way too complicated. You could just type gksu nautilus, and paste it in seconds.18:37
tkinggksu or gksudo?18:37

dev_trism: Is there a way to prevent all the other system info being appended about .tail on reboot though?18:38
dev_*above18:39
trismdev_: it is controlled by the scripts in /etc/update-motd.d/, if you chmod -x them they won't run18:39
trismdev_: though 99-footer is the one that appends motd.tail, so you probably still want that18:39

brad100ok, so i have a ccomputer that keeps overheating on ubuntu server edition, the problem is the fan isnt spinning very fast. there are 3 wires connecting the fan to my motherboard. a red a black and a yellow. if i cut the yellow wire shouldnt that make my fan run at full speed ?18:56
DeLorean731brad100: yes, but I'm willing to bet that you have a bad bearing or something in the fan. Fan's are so cheap I'd just replace them18:57
compdocbrad100, if it has 3 wires, it isnt being controlled by the OS18:57
brad100well i trust you guys so im cutting the yellow wire18:58
brad100@compdoc what controlls the yellow wire18:58
compdocthats a bad idea18:58

brad100its a six year old laptop i got from walmart18:58
compdocit lets you know how fast its going, it doesnt control the fan18:59

brad100nope just 3 wires18:59

k1ljaatrox: neither debian nor redhat is the topic in here. better ask that in #linux19:03
ezra-sjaatrox, in programming? I see no difference at all in programming with any linux distro, distros are about collections of packages and the ease to use the package manager19:03
MonkeyDustjaatrox  but that's !offtopic here19:04
ezra-sjaatrox, all main distros have updated compilers/interpreters for many programming languages19:04

Slarttskorte: as always, googling for the error message is a good first start.. running commands in a terminal (possibly with -v) is also a good thing to try.. check the logs /var/log/syslog and /var/log/kern.log might also give you good information22:25
tskorteSlart: I hear ya! I thought I read somewhere that it was a bug in bluez in < 5.00 but now I see that it's supposed to be < 4.96, ubuntu 13.04 runs 4.101 so I'm out of ideas.22:25

ColdRainKeyboardNotFound: Nope22:38
Slartk1lled: you have to do a full shutdown.. not hibernation  when you exit windows .. otherwise you'll get the error you described22:39
k1lledSlart:  i know what is hibernate and shut down, and what is diff.22:39

holsteinKeyboardNotFound: nothing is preventing any application from being made to run on linux/ubuntu.. ask the developers if it will run on ubuntu22:39
k1lledand i never use this option hibernate - this is most stupid thing22:39
Slartk1lled: it might be called something like "fast restart" in windows.. it might also be enabled by default22:40

PyruHi there, I have an nvidia card, with optimus technology (newer laptop, IdeaPad Y580). It has a 3rd generation Intel GPU, and an nvidia geforce 660m GTX discrete GPU. I installed bumblebee and to my knowledge it's working. optirun glxspheres shows a good framerate, and is telling me it's using the gtx 660m. Now, I can only get the OS to boot useing "nomodeset" flag. And when in the Unity desktop,22:40
Pyruperformance is very bad. By that, I mean visual effects are "slow" and "choppy". Any help is appreciated22:40

k1lledbro, this is useless...22:42
Slartk1lled: you can also try using the option to "restart" instead of "shutdown"22:42

z_-If I put ubuntu on my laptop, will the FN keys works? and can I expect better battery life (after tweaking)?22:42
k1lledi use few times "restart" today at my windows, and always my ubuntu cantttttttttttt mount my parts ..22:42
Slartz_-: perhaps and perhaps =/22:42
studmeisterHi everyone. I am trying to find an easy way to install the i965 driver for my laptop. I am running Ubuntu 12.04.22:43
holsteink1lled: what exatly used to work in 12.04 that is not working in 13.04? what is not mounting?22:43
Slartk1lled: then I don't really know what could cause this.. sorry22:43
k1lledholstein:  moment22:43
z_-Slart: If i try "use Ubuntu" from the disk, is this a good way to verify?22:43
k1lledhttp://postimg.org/image/ojcuh1n0p/full/ - look...22:43
holsteinz_-: better battery life compared to what?22:44
k1lledSlart:  told me the problem come from win8, bad shutdown22:44
z_-holstein: Win7/8.22:44
k1lledbut i know how to shut down22:44
Slartz_-: depending on the laptop model and such it might range from "everything works out of the box" to "nothing works and noone knows if it will get better"22:44
Slartz_-: yes, running the live ubuntu thing will at least tell you if some things will work22:44
k1lledz_-: FN buttons will work, but battery will work same time like windows22:45
holsteink1lled: did you confirm that the message is not true? have you tried mounting it read only?22:45
z_-Slart: Great thanks I'll test.22:45
holsteinactually, battery life can be much worse in linux, due to driver support, typically22:45
Slartz_-: on my laptop I had about half the battery life compared to windows.. after lots of tweaking I've now got about 25% better battery time22:45
k1lledhow i can mount it read only22:45
z_-Slart: Tweakings hard to do?22:46
holsteink1lled: i would read the message in the image you linked me, and try what is suggests.. ro22:46
z_-Slart: I got a Vizio laptop on Win8 and FN/battery life don't work well. hence Why I want to try ubuntu -_-22:46
Slartz_-: not really hard but lots of trial and error.. creating small scripts and such.. it takes some patience and a lot of rebooting =)22:46
z_-Slart: fuuuuuuu22:47
Slartwell.. you're welcome I guess..22:47
holsteinz_-: if flawless hardware support is the most important thing, you should use what the vendor suggests and intended you to use.. if you are willing to tinker, and compromise, you might enjoy linux/ubuntu22:47

holsteinstudmeister: what driver are you using? in a terminal lscpi -v ..you can share that via pastebin if you need22:54
foobArrrdmiller309: if it's metacity related, would that affect emerald? no I havn't changed any of those settings beside the "Command" field, as said I tried emerald and gtk-window-decorator there.22:56
studmeisterThe terminal is telling me it can't find the lscpi command.22:56
holsteinstudmeister: lspci .. sorry22:57
studmeisterOk, I figured that out... Here's the patebin. http://paste.ubuntu.com/5781949/22:58

studmeisterNo. I am brand new, and trying to learn it.23:02
holsteinstudmeister: where are you getting these applications that are failing?23:02
studmeisterFrom their websites, they are not listed in the Application Center23:03
holsteinstudmeister: then, you need to ask them for help.. there is nothing "wrong" with ubuntu.. you are using the driver you are meant to use23:04

SaxXsorry23:27
SaxXso i am under Ubuntu 12.04 TLS23:28
SaxXi have just installed lamp23:28
SaxXeverything remain good except the fact i can't access to localhost/phpmyadmin23:29
^MikeDid you install phpmyadmin?23:30
wilee-nilee^Mike, I think you can do that with airdroid from google play23:30
^Mikesweeeeeeet, I'll check it out23:30
^Mikemy alternative is to try sshfs or something, but that's probably not the best idea :)23:31
SaxXyes i do ^Mike23:31
^MikeSaxX: and what happens when you navigate to the phpmyadmin URL?23:31
SaxXand when i type head /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf23:32

Gabboz^Mike, take a peek at subsonic too23:33
^Mikewilee-nilee: airdroid looks like a remote control panel for your android device, rather than anything to do with streaming media. I guess you can transfer files :X23:33
Gabbozairdroid isn't what you want(i use that app).23:34
^Mikeyeah, subsonic looks like it'll cover me for audio23:34
wilee-nilee^Mike, Airdroid is a wireless communication, I thought I saw a streaming option.23:34
Gabboz^Mike,  it does video too23:34
^MikeGabboz: subsonic does?23:35
Gabbozsubsonic transcodes(audio/video) on the fly.23:35
Gabbozi think mencode is the main app behind all that23:35
^Mikeawesome23:38
Gabboz^Mike, FYI, there is a fork of that project where the goal was completely free(some felt the donation being enforced was tasteless).  I don't know the name of that fork tho23:39
