[00:00] <resizt0r> the output is exactly the same
[00:01] <resizt0r> after typign the chown
[00:01] <wilee-nilee> filling a wubi up with all you want them realizing a partitioned install is the better choice problems those that are not regulars to linux apps etc, as far as getting setup
[00:02] <resizt0r> ugh, i dont wanna have to go back to winblows
[00:03] <wilee-nilee> resizt0r, Using miss-spellings of windows is not acceptable here.
[00:03] <mutante> resizt0r: why would you want to use Windows shares then? not under your control?
[00:03] <wilee-nilee> they are all operating systems leave the fanboi out
[00:03] <resizt0r> because my entire network is windows pc's
[00:03] <resizt0r> except this one
[00:04] <resizt0r> i am a certified microsoft engineer
[00:04] <resizt0r> i have lived my life learning microsoft for years
[00:04] <mutante> resizt0r: setting up samba shares is always annoying but it will eventually work
[00:04] <histo> resizt0r: what is the issue?
[00:04] <resizt0r> not i just wanna try learning linux
[00:04] <resizt0r> but to do it i need this pc to at least be operational
[00:04] <resizt0r> at least the bare minimum
[00:05] <histo> !details | resizt0r
[00:05] <mutante> the bare minium being to become a Windows domain member?:p
[00:05] <daftykins> resizt0r: your entry in /etc/fstab is definitely the issue then
[00:05] <resizt0r> well, next i will be setting up an ftp
[00:05] <resizt0r> but i've done that one other time on linux so i should be able to handle that
[00:05] <mutante> you already have secure file transfer, ssh is running, use scp
[00:06] <resizt0r> ok i'll remove that entry
[00:06] <daftykins> resizt0r: try talking out nodev and replacing nosuid with 'user'
[00:06] <daftykins> *taking
[00:07] <histo> daftykins: not sure if you can mount ntfs with user option
[00:07] <daftykins> histo: good call
[00:07] <histo> daftykins: resizt0r you have to use uid options
[00:07] <histo> daftykins: uid=1000   should do the trick
[00:08] <samuel> i need to install a dreamweaver8.0,help pls
[00:08] <histo> daftykins: resizt0r add uid=1000,gid=1000  will get mounted as your user and your group
[00:08] <daftykins> samuel: you can't get that for Ubuntu, you'll need to find an alternative
[00:09] <histo> samuel: is there are reason you don't want to use an open source alternative?
[00:09] <samuel> what other alternative?
[00:09] <histo> samuel: http://alternativeto.net/software/adobe-dreamweaver/?platform=linux
[00:09] <samuel> im  new user in this histo
[00:10] <daftykins> histo: i can leave you to take over with resizt0r if you're ok with that? you're obviously more experienced with mount :>
[00:10] <mutante> samuel: try in wine :p
[00:10] <resizt0r> is there teamviewer for linux
[00:10] <resizt0r> i could just have someone set it up for me with remote access
[00:10] <histo> samuel: well alternativeto.net is a great site for finding Open alternatives.  Also if you don't like those you may be able to get dreamweaver working with wine but that is completely offtopic for this channel. There is a wine channel you can join.
[00:10] <histo> !manual | samuel
[00:11] <histo> resizt0r: yes teamviewer works in linux
[00:11] <histo> resizt0r: what are you trying to setup?
[00:11] <Tex_Nick> samuel:  i think Adobe has switched a lot of their CS applications over to the cloud ... so you might be able to get an Adobe dreamweaver account

[00:12] <resizt0r> i am just trying to get an external hdd to be shared on my windows network
[00:12] <resizt0r> with kubuntu 13.04
[00:13] <histo> resizt0r: plug in the drive right click and share
[00:13] <Saiki> ok, new issue.. how do I find all the chinese fonts and settings?
[00:13] <resizt0r> i've tried that obviously
[00:13] <wheatthin> resizt0r, are you having a hard time creating the share? or mounting it?
[00:13] <histo> resizt0r: pastebin your fstab and the output of the id command
[00:13] <resizt0r> no its mounted fine
[00:14] <resizt0r> but i cant change the permissions
[00:14] <mutante> resizt0r: you know what is also easy? you can just install WinSCP on a Windows box and then connect with that to your Linux box without having to setup any additional service
[00:14] <vadi> apt-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 anyhow
[00:14] <wheatthin> resizt0r, ftsab permissions
[00:14] <mutante> resizt0r: and it will look exactly like an FTP client but be secure
[00:16] <histo> resizt0r: if you are mounting via fstab you have to modify the permissions there.
[00:17] <histo> resizt0r: if you copy your fstab to paste.ubuntu.com I can tell you what to change
[00:18] <resizt0r> http://paste.ubuntu.com/5778783/
[00:18] <MrWeb20> Hey 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] <samuel> anyone with software to enhance Pc perfomance pls?
[00:19] <mutante> MrWeb20: that sounds all completely normal, you'll need to use a 3rd party tool to access the Linux file system from Windows
[00:19] <histo> resizt0r: change jk to uid=1000,gid=1000
[00:19] <Gabboz> MrWeb20, can you see the windows partition at all from ubuntu?
[00:19] <Gabboz> scratch that..
[00:19] <histo> resizt0r: then sudo mount -o remount /media/Backup
[00:20] <wilee-nilee> MrWeb20, Did you install from windows or a live cd? Windows Disk manager will show a linux ext partition, but not the type.
[00:20] <mutante> MrWeb20: http://www.chrysocome.net/explore2fs
[00:20] <samuel> any software for backup in ubuntu....pls help....
[00:20] <histo> MrWeb20: paste.ubuntu.com the output of lsblk
[00:21] <nightfly> samuel: apt-cache search backup
[00:21] <histo> !backup > samuel
[00:21] <MrWeb20> Thanks 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] <mutante> samuel: bacula, amanda
[00:22] <LjL> samuel: 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] <Gabboz> MrWeb20, how many HDs in the machine and whats the part info per HD?
[00:22] <mutante> "software to enhance performance" is a Windows thing, like regcleaners, you don't need that stuff ,heh
[00:23] <Tex_Nick> samuel:  IMHO thw windows PC tune-up tools never worked well, in fact sometimes they would crach the registry ...Ubuntu doesn't really need PC tune-up tolls to inprove performance ... just do regular updates
[00:23] <Gabboz> Tex_Nick, he's gone
[00:23] <mutante> you could buy Kaspersky for Linux :)
[00:23] <resizt0r> hmm
[00:24] <resizt0r> well i tried that it said i couldnt do that until i use umount
[00:24] <resizt0r> i typed that and it said some other error
[00:24] <MrWeb20> Gabboz: 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_Nick> Gabboz: yeah i just noticed ... guess i'm talking to myself ;-)
[00:24] <wilee-nilee> MrWeb20, If you resized the windows ntfs it usually needs a chkdsk, might ths be needed.
[00:24] <resizt0r> now it says it cant even mount it unless i am root
[00:24] <samuel> any clue with an access--like software in ubuntu for database applications
[00:24] <wilee-nilee> this*
[00:24] <Saiki> How would I dinf Chinese fonts and settings for locale?
[00:25] <histo> samuel: please use the software center and don't take polls in the channel
[00:25] <MrWeb20> wilee-nilee: Good call, I'll try that. Do you know how to force one?
[00:25] <mutante> samuel: http://www.kexi-project.org/
[00:25] <histo> samuel: Also I had ubottu send you a message about the manual
[00:25] <Gabboz> MrWeb20, right click on all volumes, select tools and check drive
[00:25] <samuel> got u histo
[00:25] <MrWeb20> Gabboz: The volume in question is missing from the disk manager tool (mmc console)
[00:26] <Gabboz> MrWeb20, the only ones that wont check without reboot are the OS and the partition(if it isnt on OS HD)
[00:26] <wilee-nilee> MrWeb20, 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] <Gabboz> MrWeb20, a chkdsk is a good idea anyway.. especially if Windows didn't force it after you resized a partition
[00:26] <Gabboz> MrWeb20, can you mount said partition in ubuntu?  is there data on it already?
[00:27] <MrWeb20> Gabboz: Yep, and yep.
[00:27] <MrWeb20> Ok, thanks gents. I'll try out a few things and be back.
[00:27] <dank101> anyone else have steam for linux issues
[00:28] <Saiki> anyone know hwo to fix that propblem? The pc refuses to run GBK-encoded programs
[00:29] <wheatthin> dank101, like what issues? I don't personally.. but I do have it installed

[00:32] <johnjohn101> write some code!
[00:32] <Gabboz> shell`, never.
[00:32] <wheatthin> !ot | shell

[00:33] <shell`> mutante LOL funny
[00:34] <mutante> shell`: what would it sell you? ring tones?
[00:39] <CavalierPrime> shell:  yes, it works well.  After upgrade, I lost some programs I had bought, but it works like steam and remembers your purchases
[00:39] <CavalierPrime> i got em all back
[00:40] <dank101> oh they were pushing out updates?
[00:42] <Saiki> how do I install full locale support for zh_cn.gbk?
[00:42] <BALTA00> how i can conect my iPad in ubuntu?
[00:43] <BALTA00> is here any alternative for iTunes?
[00:43] <wheatthin> gtkpod, although I don't think it works idealy
[00:43] <ccclipsss> iOS 6?
[00:43] <BALTA00> I want only files transfer..
[00:44] <BALTA00> Yes, iOS 6
[00:44] <ccclipsss> What kind of files?
[00:44] <ccclipsss> PIcs or music?
[00:44] <dank101> for music use rythmbox
[00:44] <BALTA00> pics, music, videos and books
[00:44] <dank101> for pics use shotwell of
[00:45] <dank101> i really don't know for movies or books
[00:45] <BALTA00> but, ubuntu don't have any file explorer?
[00:45] <Saiki> how do I install full locale support for chinese languages
[00:45] <BALTA00> Like iFunBox
[00:45] <Tex_Nick> BALTA00: what happens if you use a USB cable ... doesn't it show as a USB drive ?
[00:46] <minimec> BALTA00: You may excuse my sarcastic comment. There is definitely an alternative for an iPhone...
[00:47] <dank101> SSH
[00:47] <dank101> jailbreak and get SSH
[00:47] <BALTA00> NVM
[00:47] <BALTA00> I can explorer mi iPad
[00:47] <BALTA00> :)
[00:48] <BALTA00> Better than windows
[00:48] <dank101> yeah
[00:48] <BALTA00> without any software
[00:48] <whjms> dank101: even then, you won't be able to copy files to apple's player.
[00:48] <dank101> Rythmbox
[00:48] <BALTA00> It's not a problem
[00:48] <BALTA00> I don't use defaul player
[00:48] <dank101> i remember rythmbox had that feature
[00:49] <whjms> BALTA00: do you use oplayer? it's a really nice app
[00:49] <BALTA00> I only need explorer my music with Yxplayer2
[00:49] <BALTA00> and all work fine
[00:49] <BALTA00> I use Yxplayer2, it's very good

[00:50] <BALTA00> using FTP
[00:50] <BALTA00> and play in my iPad my PC music
[00:50] <BALTA00> :)
[00:50] <whjms> if you want to learn more about linux system administration, consider setting up a media playback server on your system. that way, you can stream files directly to your device without syncing
[00:50] <BALTA00> Bu I don't try it in ubuntu

[00:52] <MrWeb20> Hey #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] <polaris> Hello
[00:53] <daftykins> MrWeb20: i'd be curious to see a screenshot of diskmgmt.msc
[00:53] <polaris> Dik Dik
[00:53] <histo_> MrWeb20: You have more than one ntfs partition?
[00:53] <MrWeb20> The mmc doesn't show the volume at all, daftykins
[00:53] <MrWeb20> histo_, yes, but not on that volume. That volume has three partitions. A 814 GB ntfs, a 117GB ext4, and a 4GB swap
[00:54] <histo_> MrWeb20: what does the other volume have?
[00:54] <daftykins> MrWeb20: had you tried scheduling a disk check as someone said?
[00:54] <BALTA00> I think don't go back to Windows :)
[00:54] <MrWeb20> One 1 TB ntfs, and a 250GB ntfs (three volumes total)
[00:54] <daftykins> BALTA00: don't make stupid comments in here please
[00:55] <MrWeb20> daftykins, I tried that, but I couldn't figure out how to do that without Windows being able to see the volume.
[00:55] <histo> MrWeb20: is the other "volume" an external drive?
[00:55] <daftykins> MrWeb20: so it boots fine but it can't even realise what it's running from? :D
[00:55] <MrWeb20> histo, Nope. Three internal disks.
[00:55] <BALTA00> why u said that my commend is stupid?
[00:55] <WiCkEd_> Is there a simple way for me to switch from ubuntu 13.04 back to 12.10 without losing all my files/documents/programs?
[00:56] <histo> MrWeb20: How is this anything related to ubuntu if the problem only exists in windows?
[00:56] <Ben64> WiCkEd_: why go backwards?
[00:56] <daftykins> WiCkEd_: not really no :( you would have to clean install, but you could keep your /home if it's a separate partition
[00:56] <MrWeb20> daftykins, 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.
[00:57] <histo> MrWeb20: please paste an image of disk management screen
[00:57] <histo> !paste | MrWeb20
[00:57] <MrWeb20> histo, it's an issue that was caused by the install, and I've never had this issue before. Just looking for a bit of wisdom
[00:57] <MrWeb20> histo, 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 of
[00:57] <daftykins> MrWeb20: oooooh i thought they were both on one disk. Windows can't read the partitions anyway so why do you want it to?
[00:58] <histo> MrWeb20: sudo parted -l | pastebinit    in linux  and then in windows paste a screen shot of the disk management screen.
[00:58] <MrWeb20> daftykins, 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 volume
[00:58] <Ben64> WiCkEd_: you may want to use 12.04 then, its supported until 2017
[00:59] <histo> WiCkEd_: there is a script floating around to create a 12.10 linux container and run steam from there.
[00:59] <MrWeb20> histo, kk, that'll take me a couple of minutes, with a reboot. I'll do the pastebin first
[00:59] <histo> MrWeb20: k
[00:59] <daftykins> MrWeb20: i wonder if you didn't acidentally select 'erase disk and install'
[01:00] <MrWeb20> daftykins, nope, I didn't. Ubuntu sees it as an ntfs partition, and I can explore it just fine
[01:00] <daftykins> ah
[01:01] <MrWeb20> histo, http://paste.ubuntu.com/5778862/  . Now I'll brb for the screenshot
[01:06] <Saiki> how do I install full locale support for chinese languages
[01:06] <WiCkEd_> thanks guys
[01:08] <Tex_Nick> Saiki: have you tried "System Settings/Language Support" ?
[01:08] <dank101> maybe by stop spamming we will help you Saiki
[01:08] <MrWeb20> histo: Ok, I'm back. Give me a moment to grab a screen.

[01:14] <ruconse> hi, does anyone how to use "TZ" & date command to calculate the current time of "GMT-7:00" or "GMT+7:00" :)
[01:14] <MrWeb20> All my links to it are broken since the install in Windows, I can't see it, but Ubuntu still sees it just fine
[01:15] <histo> MrWeb20: No idea why windows isn't seeing it.
[01:16] <MrWeb20> Any idea how to force a dskchk for it, since windows doesn't see it?
[01:16] <histo> MrWeb20: there is a weird partition on that disk though in the primary slot that is 1MB in size
[01:16] <histo> MrWeb20: sorry should say a primary partition in slot 1 on that drive
[01:16] <MrWeb20> Yeah, that doesn't go away for some reason. Can't absorb it. There is a similar one on that missing disk
[01:16] <histo> MrWeb20: The missing disk is the only one with it
[01:17] <histo> MrWeb20: the other's appear to just have windows boot partitions
[01:17] <xxflisxx> hello.. i'm trying to find a way  to add a user with a password to only access a specific folder on the ssh server?
[01:17] <MrWeb20> histo: My partitions have always looked exactly like this. It's just after my install this afternoon that the disk turned up missing in windows
[01:18] <jrib> xxflisxx: does he need shell access?
[01:18] <histo> MrWeb20: No idea... Windows issue.  Windows has several other issues with partitions e.g. if you have multiple partitions on a removable disk it will only see the first one.
[01:18] <xxflisxx> no
[01:18] <histo> MrWeb20: try asking in ##windows
[01:18] <jrib> xxflisxx: then read about ChrootDirectory in « man sshd_config »
[01:19] <xxflisxx> jrib: only access to upload and remove files in the specific folder

[01:41] <MrWeb20> hey histo, do you happen to have that pastebin link I sent earlier still?
[01:41] <histo> MrWeb20: sure let me check
[01:42] <wilee-nilee> WiCkEd_, Check how many kernel sets you have, two is the standard keep. http://askubuntu.com/questions/2793/how-do-i-to-remove-or-hide-old-kernel-versions-to-clean-up-the-boot-menu
[01:42] <MrWeb20> Trying to get help in ##windows, not much luck though
[01:42] <domonic> tes
[01:42] <Jehk> hey so I decided to do apt-get dist-upgrade and it was a terrible idea because I didn't upgrade kernel first. so now I have like 300 odd packages with unmet dependencies and no clue how to upgrade kernel
[01:42] <domonic> http://paste.ubuntu.com/5778803
[01:42] <histo> MrWeb20: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5778862/ http://i.imgur.com/fQRMoXe.png
[01:45] <androidbruce> i'm trying to install server 12.04 lts, but there is no way for me to resize partitions....
[01:45] <androidbruce> is this normal?
[01:45] <androidbruce> it used to be an option
[01:45] <MrWeb20> Thanks histo
[01:46] <histo> androidbruce: you can drop out to a tty and resize
[01:46] <histo> androidbruce: or use a live cd with gparted to resize
[01:47] <androidbruce> oh wow
[01:47] <androidbruce> ok
[01:47] <Tex_Nick> androidbruce:  gparted is what you would use to resize partitions
[01:47] <androidbruce> any reason why it is no longer in the installer/
[01:47] <androidbruce> that was convenient
[01:48] <Saiki> Tex_Nick: Yes, I tried that
[01:48] <Saiki> Tex_Nick: That's the first thing, after installing every CN font I could find that I tried
[01:51] <Tex_Nick> Saiki: ok sorry sir ... i don't know what else to tell you ... someone else here can probably help though ... i think there is an ubuntu chinese channel ?
[01:52] <Tex_Nick> !ch
[01:52] <Tex_Nick> whoops that's not it :-(
[01:53] <Tex_Nick> !cn
[01:53] <SonikkuAmerica> !cn
[01:53] <SonikkuAmerica> Tex_Nick: Beat me to it
[01:53] <SonikkuAmerica> I think !zh works too
[01:53] <Tex_Nick> SonikkuAmerica:  ;-) not by much though
[01:54] <SonikkuAmerica> !zh
[01:54] <SonikkuAmerica> Yep
[01:56] <goddard> how can i completely uninstall unity to replace with KDE?
[01:56] <goddard> i already have KDE installed
[01:57] <Tex_Nick> SonikkuAmerica:  cool, don't think i've seen that one
[01:57] <xangua> !purekde | goddard
[01:57] <wilee-nilee> goddard, Make sure you use the remove list for your release. http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purekubuntu
[01:57] <SonikkuAmerica> Tex_Nick: (I think it has to do with how the Chinese pronounce the word "Chinese")
[01:58] <Tex_Nick> Ah ok ... i have enough trouble with english ;-)
[01:58] <BluesKaj> goddard, this URL is for 13.04,  http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntucat/tag/pure-kubuntu/
[01:58] <somsip> SonikkuAmerica: zhongwen, FWIW
[01:58] <goddard> xangua: cool williangliao  BluesKaj thanks
[02:10] <ltxda> hi all :)
[02:10] <SonikkuAmerica> Yo
[02:11] <ltxda> :)
[02:11] <arming> hi all
[02:12] <arming> I have a prbl with running linux kernel 3.9.4 on qemu ubuntu 12.04
[02:13] <Tex_Nick> !details | arming
[02:13] <arming> wait for a minute, i am looking for the error
[02:14] <arming> qemu -kernel linux-3.9.4/arch/x86/boot/bzImage -initrd myinitrd4M.img -append "root=/dev/ram init=/init"
[02:14] <arming> this is my running cmd
[02:15] <arming> the error is VFS: cann't open root device ram or unknown block(1,0)
[02:16] <vee_> hey guys, been trying to run feed the beast on the lastest ubuntu, but, every time i launch, i just get a black screen...
[02:19] <BluesKaj> vee_, does ctl+alt+F1 get you to a TTY login ?
[02:19] <vee_> it should, yes
[02:19] <SonikkuAmerica> BluesKaj: So do F2 thru F6
[02:19] <BluesKaj> try an update/upgrade , vee_
[02:20] <vee_> will do
[02:20] <BluesKaj> SonikkuAmerica, yes , but usually F1 isn't occupied
[02:20] <vee_> should it matter though? i did a fresh install
[02:21] <BluesKaj> yes , it might , vee , it's worth a try
[02:22] <vee_> everything is upgraded
[02:22] <BluesKaj> vee_, if not ,then we could try the nomodset route
[02:22] <vee_> and what is that?
[02:22] <BluesKaj> err nomodeset
[02:23] <BluesKaj> !nomodeset
[02:23] <vee_> the comptuer boots up fine
[02:23] <vee_> the regular minecraft even works
[02:23] <vee_> however, feed the beast refuses to...
[02:23] <arming> I have a problem with booting my own fs with qemu, I'm running Ubuntu 12.04, When I try to do qemu -kernel linux-3.9.4/arch/x86/boot/bzImage -initrd myinitrd4M.img -append "root=/dev/ram init=/init", I get the following output:VFS: Cannot open root device "ram" or unknown-block(1,0):error - 6  Please append a correct "root=" boot option; here are the available partitions: 0b00 1048575 sr0  driver: sr Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on
[02:23] <arming>  unknow-block(1,0) , but I expected it to boot my own FS correctly.
[02:24] <reisio> MrKB: kwazang!
[02:24] <Tex_Nick> arming: there are a lot of links on google relating to that, not sure which would pretain specifically though ... have you asked in #archlinux ?
[02:24] <Duke_> How can I edit files while in Text Mode? I enjoy running Ubuntu in text mode, and I want to program in C.
[02:24] <arming> no
[02:24] <reisio> arming: is that qemu or kvm?
[02:24] <arming> qemu
[02:25] <reisio> don't have the extensions for kvm?
[02:25] <arming> I set my bios to support kvm
[02:25] <Duke_> Can someone please help me? I'm new to Unix
[02:25] <reisio> Duke_: help you with what?
[02:25] <Duke_> reisio: How do I edit C files in Text Mode
[02:25] <arming> before that, it always wrong with no support for kvm
[02:25] <Duke_> reisio: I already know how to compile, but I'm new to Unix and I have no idea how to edit files
[02:25] <reisio> Duke_: outside of X, you mean?
[02:26] <Duke_> reisio: Yes
[02:26] <reisio> arming: might talk to #kvm, then
[02:26] <Tex_Nick> Duke : this is a support channel for Ubuntu Linux
[02:26] <reisio> Duke_: oh there are a number of editors to choose from
[02:26] <reisio> Duke_: 'nano' is a simple one
[02:26] <SonikkuAmerica> Duke_: vi, Emacs, and nano work...
[02:26] <reisio> Vim is a complex one
[02:26] <reisio> Emacs is another complex one
[02:26] <vee_> any other advise?
[02:26] <arming> well
[02:26] <reisio> if you don't already have it (run 'type nano'), you can sudo apt-get install nano
[02:26] <reisio> vee_: about?
[02:26] <nevyn> gedit, kate, scite are all reasonable options too
[02:26] <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 mode
[02:26] <SonikkuAmerica> You might ask in ##linux while you're at it, to get exposed to the vi vs. Emacs war
[02:26] <SonikkuAmerica> !war
[02:27] <vee_> running feed the beast a minecraft mod, wont work. however, runnign the regular minecraft does
[02:27] <nevyn> Duke_: how do you want to work?
[02:27] <SonikkuAmerica> !x | Duke_
[02:27] <arming> I want to know if linux 3.9.4 defconfig without kvm support module setting?
[02:27] <reisio> yay bot spam
[02:27] <SonikkuAmerica> !botabuse
[02:27] <reisio> Duke_: not sure what text mode is, if you're in X, use gedit, and if not, use nano
[02:28] <reisio> SonikkuAmerica: clevarf
[02:28] <Duke_> Nano? apt-get able?
[02:28] <reisio> Duke_: yes
[02:28] <Duke_> How can I learn it? Like where are the hotkeys
[02:28] <Duke_> save, etc
[02:28] <reisio> Duke_: it says at the bottom of its display
[02:29] <Duke_> oh i didn't see that left part ;) Thanks for everything guys!
[02:29] <reisio> Duke_: ^ == CTRL
[02:29] <vee_> ill try the no modset
[02:29] <vee_> see if that does anything
[02:29] <SonikkuAmerica> reisio: What?
[02:29] <Duke_> reisio: Yeah I got it, thanks so much :D
[02:29] <reisio> SonikkuAmerica: what?
[02:29] <reisio> np dood
 SonikkuAmerica: clevarf
[02:29] <reisio> SonikkuAmerica: celvar+f
[02:29] <reisio> clevar+f, even
[02:30] <SonikkuAmerica> Oh
[02:30] <BluesKaj> vee, it's no gurantee but the symptoms fit
[02:31] <MaryJaneKalamida> nick register
[02:31] <BluesKaj> ok , too late
[02:31] <monkeyjuice> bed time BluesKaj
[02:32] <BluesKaj> well I hope it work for him , monkeyjuice
[02:32] <BluesKaj> it's early , monkeyjuice
[02:32] <monkeyjuice> see ya in the am im off
[02:32] <BluesKaj> ok, monkeyjuice , sleeo well :)
[02:33] <BluesKaj> err sleep
[02:35] <heikoo> will there be kde 4.11 backports available for 12.04?
[02:35] <arming> when i did the same thing with linux kernel 3.2.1, it's ok
[02:36] <arming> so i think if the kernel 3.9.4 not support kvm default?
[02:36] <histo> arming: have you tried asking in the qemu or kvm channel?
[02:36] <MrKB> every time I restart my computer, I have no wifi again. And I'm forced to run these commands to make it work:
[02:36] <MrKB> sudo modprobe -rfv rtl8192cu
[02:36] <MrKB> sudo modprobe -v 8192cu
[02:36] <arming> I asked in kvm
[02:36] <MrKB> thoughts?
[02:36] <FloodBot1> MrKB: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[02:36] <MrKB> reisio - sup brotha
[02:36] <MrKB> stfu FloodBot1
[02:37] <reisio> sup homie
[02:37] <MrKB> You're so racist
[02:37] <arming> have no answer
[02:37] <IdleOne> !language | MrKB
[02:38] <MrKB> the 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 :P
[02:38] <IdleOne> MrKB: Nice try, mind your language please.
[02:38] <MrKB> I'll try :P
[02:38] <MrKB> reisio - what was it specifically that #ubuntu people explained to me that was easy? Everything or were you referring to something specific? XD
[02:39] <histo> MrKB: is the rtl8192cu module blacklisted?
[02:39] <reisio> MrKB: dunno, somethin'
[02:39] <nevyn> MrKB: so is rtl1892cu part of the stack that 8192cu includes?
[02:39] <MrKB> lol reisio
[02:39] <MrKB> histo - nevyn - no idea
[02:39] <nevyn> so it could be a simple thing to blacklist rtl8192cu
[02:40] <MrKB> how would go about doing that
[02:40] <arming> MrKB: FATAL: Module 8192cu not found.
[02:40] <MrKB> armin - hm?
[02:40] <histo> MrKB: grep 'rtl8129' /etc/modprobe.d/*
[02:40] <MrKB> what does that do
[02:41] <histo> MrKB: searches all your blacklist files for that module
[02:41] <arming> histo: output nothing
[02:41] <w0lfsen> Warning: 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 appreciated
[02:41] <MrKB> oh ok. one sec histo
[02:41] <booh> How to change ip adress of virbr0 ??   I need to release the 192.168.122.x network segment.. duplicate with another service on my network I need.
[02:41] <histo> arming: not you.. that was for MrKB
[02:41] <reisio> MrKB: oh right, synergy without GUI
[02:41] <histo> MrKB: you could also add command in rc.local to reload the module
[02:41] <MrKB> what does my synergy having no GUI have to do with anything reisio
[02:42] <reisio> MrKB: you were happy about figuring it out
[02:42] <reisio> hence my memo, 'cause you'd left
[02:42] <w0lfsen> I have an nitel on board sound driver
[02:42] <reisio> w0lfsen: what makes you think you don't have sound?
[02:42] <MrKB> reisio - oh. yeah. :) But I think I did that by myself O_O. maybe that's why you said that.
[02:43]  * reisio shrugs
[02:43] <MrKB> histo - grep outputted nothing. So does that mean it's not blacklisted?
[02:43] <vee_> feed the beast still wont launch :(
[02:43] <MrKB> how 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 problem
[02:43] <w0lfsen> reisio: I played some of my music but I do not hear anything. The sound panel seems to work properly. Indicates that it plays.
[02:44] <arming>  so what to do without module 8192cu?
[02:44] <MrKB> arming: what?
[02:44] <histo> MrKB: correct
[02:44] <reisio> w0lfsen: with an equalizer or something?
[02:44] <w0lfsen> yes
[02:44] <BluesKaj> w0lfsen,  open a terminal and do , sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel , there won't be any output if the driver loads properly , you'll need to reboot
[02:44] <reisio> w0lfsen: you using headphones?
[02:44] <histo> MrKB: search askubuntu for rtl8129cu or whatever you chipset is called
[02:45] <MrKB> histo: and then?
[02:45] <histo> MrKB: see if others have found a fix for the issue you are experiencing without the workaround you are currently using.
[02:45] <histo> MrKB: also you maybe able to use a different module from realtek
[02:45] <MrKB> will be using lol
[02:45] <MrKB> Oh ok cool
[02:46] <MrKB> So how do I add the commands to the rc.local
[02:46] <MrKB> (whatever that is)
[02:46] <Tex_Nick> reisio: never seen memo before ... just looked into ... that's cool
[02:46] <MrKB> reisio you send memos to everyone? I thought I was special :(
[02:47] <vee_> is there a .deb for 64 bit java i?
[02:47] <w0lfsen> BleusKaj okay I did that. Did not give any feedback. Is that normal?
[02:47] <BluesKaj> w0lfsen, if the audio mutes upon headphone connection,
[02:47] <BluesKaj> add this line to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf, options snd-hda-intel model=auto
[02:47] <BluesKaj> w0lfsen, yes, it's normal
[02:47] <Saiki> dumb network..
[02:48] <reisio> MrKB: :p
[02:48] <w0lfsen> okay I will restart and see if it work. Thank you!
[02:48] <MrKB> histo - how to add to rc.local
[02:48] <Saiki> Tex_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 locale
[02:50] <histo> MrKB: sudo nano /etc/rc.local
[02:51] <histo> MrKB: or gksu gedit /etc/rc.local
[02:51] <reisio> how do you imagine probing a driver and restarting is going to help him? :p
[02:51] <vee_> could the blank screen be caused by me using dwm?
[02:51] <MrKB> thanks histo
[02:51] <MrKB> reisio: You're talking about me, aren't you? XD
[02:51] <reisio> MrKB: nope
[02:51] <histo> reisio: he's saying it works after he unloads the module and reloads it
[02:51] <BluesKaj> reisio, because forcing alsa to reload doesn't usually work
[02:51] <histo> reisio: ahh nvm
[02:52] <MrKB> lol histo
[02:52] <MrKB> I thought the same thing
[02:52] <arming> MrKB: when i run  sudo modprobe -v 8192cu, it's FATAL: Module 8192cu not found.
[02:52] <MrKB> why are you running that arming
[02:52] <reisio> then what is the point of the modprobe?
[02:52] <MrKB> That's a command I run over on my side to fix my wifi issues.
[02:52] <MrKB> I don't know why he's running it
[02:53] <reisio> MrKB: didn't I just say I wasn't talking to you? :p
[02:53] <reisio> ^ how you know
[02:53] <arming> oh,mg
[02:53] <reisio> omgomg
[02:53] <BluesKaj> reisio, are you addressing me ? if so , use my nick please.
[02:53] <reisio> I don't remember
[02:54] <JohannKrauss> hello #ubuntu ;)
[02:54] <arming> mixed
[02:54] <histo> arming: your issue is with qemu or kvm not with ubuntu. I told you that the rtl8192cu stuff was for MrKB
[02:55] <Tickle> Windows 8 is painful.
[02:55] <travisimo> ^ lol
[02:55] <arming> ok, i mixed that just now
[02:55] <Tickle> Travisimo are you from Indiana?
[02:56] <BluesKaj> ppl should be addressing with nicks , otherwise it gets chaotic in here
[02:56] <Tickle> If you don't mind me asking.
[02:56] <travisimo> nope
[02:56] <travisimo> why?
[02:56] <Tickle> Oh, I know a guy who used travisimo as his screen name here.
[02:57] <w0lfsen> @blueskaj that did not work
[02:57] <BluesKaj> w0lfsen, if the audio mutes upon headphone connection, add this line to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf, options snd-hda-intel model=auto
[02:58] <w0lfsen> yes, I saw that but I do not have any headphones attached currently
[02:58] <w0lfsen> saved the line if that happens once I have sound through normal laptop speakers
[02:58] <MrWeb20> Hey histo, still around?
[02:59] <here4thegear> I'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 working
[02:59] <wilee-nilee> !eol | here4thegear
[02:59] <histo> MrWeb20: yes
[03:00] <BluesKaj> ok , just making sure , w0lfsen , open a terminal and type alsamixer , and unmute with M key any ctrls with a M , and use the arrow keys turn up the volume
[03:00] <here4thegear> So Maverick is end of life?
[03:00] <nerdtron> here4thegear yes
[03:01] <xangua> here4thegear: since two years ago...
[03:01] <MrWeb20> Hey 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-nilee> here4thegear, 12.04 s the earliest supported release at this time.
[03:01] <wilee-nilee> is*
[03:01] <w0lfsen> done, it is all turned up at the highest volume
[03:01] <histo> MrWeb20: nice... like I said windows issue
[03:01] <histo> MrWeb20: ubuntu did not make it a "dynamic disk" I ensure you of that.
[03:02] <MrWeb20> histo: Well, a windows solution at least. Something definitely happened with the gparted that started it all, but who knows what.
[03:02] <wilee-nilee> MrWeb20, I wondered if the disc had not gone dynamic.
[03:02] <histo> wilee-nilee: it didn't appear so according to his pastes
[03:02]  * here4thegear facepalms self
[03:02] <here4thegear> Thanks
[03:03] <histo> MrWeb20: wilee-nilee who knows what the windows tool did to fix it for itself. But it did work in linux.
[03:03] <wilee-nilee> histo, Yeah and the number of partitions was correct, go figger.
[03:03] <MrWeb20> Yep. Oh well, just glad it's working. I'll get around to reinstalling ubuntu later this week. Take care
[03:04] <wilee-nilee> MrWeb20, You want to be aware of partition types and how many is all.
[03:05] <histo> wilee-nilee: I'm pretty sure it was this bizarre 1MB partition he had at the begining of the drive
[03:05] <w0lfsen> it is all on the highest volume but still no sound.
[03:06] <wilee-nilee> histo, I missed that until you mentioned originally, good eye. ;)
[03:07] <OerHeks> histo, could be his bios file, some pc's like compaq stores data on the first sector ..
[03:08] <Bitwise> Hello.
[03:08] <Tex_Nick> OerHeks : yeah i've seen that a lot
[03:08] <BluesKaj> w0lfsen, in the terminal , sudo lshw -C sound , and pastebin the output
[03:08] <reisio> Bitwise: 'lo
[03:08] <Bitwise> How can I update g++ to the latest version (4.8.1) in 12.04?
[03:09] <Bitwise> I tried sudo apt-get install g++
[03:10] <Bitwise> This line is in the output: g++ is already the newest version.
[03:10] <reisio> Bitwise: I don't think even 13.04 has that version
[03:10] <Tickle> try sudo apt-get upgrade and sudo apt-get update
[03:10] <Bitwise> But g++ --version says 4.6.3
[03:10] <w0lfsen> BluesKaj http://pastebin.com/ZHAhkV3J
[03:10] <reisio> you'd probabyl have to find a 3rd party bin, or compile it yourself
[03:10] <reisio> probably*
[03:11] <zykotick9> !info g++
[03:11] <SuperLag> Is there a way to print a number with a repeating line over it? for something like 1.6666666...... but just have a single 6 with a line over it?
[03:11] <Bitwise> Tickle, I already tried that. :-\
[03:12] <reisio> SuperLag: just use ...
[03:12] <Tickle> What version do you have now?
[03:13] <Ben64> SuperLag: 0x0302
[03:13] <Ben64> SuperLag: 0x0305 * sorry
[03:13] <lotuspsychje> morning to all
[03:13] <Bitwise> Tickle, g++ --version says 4.6.3
[03:13] <Tickle> That's the version you have installed?
[03:13] <BluesKaj> w0lfsen, your driver is installed and is loading ...so it's some other problem. I assume you are using an onboard sound chip
[03:13] <w0lfsen> BluesKaj 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 anything
[03:14] <w0lfsen> BluesKaj you assume correctly. Both graphic and sound are on board
[03:15] <w0lfsen> BleusKaj 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?
[03:16] <BluesKaj> w0lfsen, install pavucontrol , you can set your inputs and outputs correctlywith it.
[03:17] <BluesKaj> audio that is , w0lfsen
[03:17] <w0lfsen> BluesKaj PulseAudio Volume control? That is installed and I have played with it
[03:18] <lotuspsychje> someone wich package to install to browse android devices and its content, i can see it from 13.04 but older versions of ubuntu not
[03:18] <lotuspsychje> *knows
[03:18] <w0lfsen> BluesKaj no sound though
[03:19] <lotuspsychje> w0lfsen: did you check your additional drivers section yet?
[03:19] <wilee-nilee> lotuspsychje, 4.0 android, http://www.webupd8.org/2013/01/upgrade-to-gvfs-with-mtp-support-in.html
[03:20] <lotuspsychje> wilee-nilee: ah tnx mate thats what i was looking for :p
[03:20] <lotuspsychje> !cookie | wilee-nilee
[03:20] <w0lfsen> lotuspsychje I am not sure what you mean. I googled for intel linux driver and found the website posted above. Not sure which one to download though since I do not know what DKMS I have.
[03:20] <wilee-nilee> lotuspsychje, Airdroid works well, it is in the google play store.
[03:20] <wilee-nilee> mmmm chocolate chip
[03:21] <lotuspsychje> :p
[03:21] <lotuspsychje> w0lfsen: try software&updates last tab 'additional drivers' to see if you see any driver in list
[03:23] <lotuspsychje> wilee-nilee: well i dont play with android myself, but some ppl i installed ubuntu for them, like to browse pictures from withing ubuntu
[03:23] <w0lfsen> lotuspsychje ah found it. The section is empty :/
[03:23] <lotuspsychje> w0lfsen: on what ubuntu version are you?
[03:24] <wilee-nilee> lotuspsychje, I have a nexus 7 and a htc android so I'm familiar with android in general.
[03:24] <w0lfsen> lotuspsychje I downloaded it a couple of days ago. Xubuntu
[03:24] <lotuspsychje> wilee-nilee: did you try touch on the nexus7? im all excited to buy one?
[03:25] <lotuspsychje> w0lfsen: xubuntu 13.04 clean install?
[03:25] <w0lfsen> lotuspsychje I have it running on the same partition as my windows.... I know that's bad but I did not want to risk my windows partition.
[03:25] <wilee-nilee> lotuspsychje, I have run touch and the desktops, all are in development so a bit rough is all.
[03:25] <w0lfsen> lotuspsychje yes. I' d say so.
[03:26] <lotuspsychje> wilee-nilee: worth the install? can you browse decently?
[03:26] <lotuspsychje> w0lfsen: you could try #xubuntu aswell
[03:27] <lotuspsychje> w0lfsen: can your machine handle ubuntu 13.04, that might get your sound working maybe?
[03:27] <BluesKaj> w0lfsen, lost my connection ...ISP is having probs  here lately
[03:27] <wilee-nilee> lotuspsychje, Been more then a month on the touch so I forget that one, the desktop was okay but the touch function was problematic, and no wifi, but browsed fine. I hope the desktop installs run well in the end on the nexus 7
[03:28] <w0lfsen> lotuspsychje 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 so
[03:28] <w0lfsen> lotuspsychje *it could not handle
[03:28] <lotuspsychje> w0lfsen: i really recommend ubuntu 13.04 (64bit)
[03:29] <w0lfsen> lotuspsychje  a friend of mine recommended xubuntu since it is easier for newbs like me.
[03:29] <wilee-nilee> lotuspsychje, I didn't keep the installs very long, but this was more than a month ago probably about 2.
[03:29] <lotuspsychje> w0lfsen: you will forget your windows soon, well ubuntu with unity is easy aswell
[03:29] <w0lfsen> BluesKaj wb. Problem not solved so far. I checked the driver section and stuff.
[03:30] <lotuspsychje> wilee-nilee: im all excited about retail ubuntu tablets, hope thay come out soon :p
[03:30] <wilee-nilee> That would be nice.
[03:32] <lotuspsychje> !nexus7 > lotuspsychje
[03:33] <BluesKaj> w0lfsen, well , it's my bedtime so I'll leave you in good hands with the crew here
[03:33] <lotuspsychje> BluesKaj: he's in good hands sleep tight
[03:34] <w0lfsen> BluesKaj thanks and good night!
[03:34] <mob001> hi, tomcat clustering on ubuntu 10.04 using mod_jk connector. pls help on this.
[03:34] <lotuspsychje> w0lfsen: did you enabled codecs and download and download updates during install in your setup?
[03:35] <lotuspsychje> mob001: you can try #ubuntu-server aswell mate
[03:36] <Tex_Nick> lotuspsychje:  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 so
[03:36] <w0lfsen> lotuspsyche I think so. I think this is also signified by the fact that I can start all my mp3s without a problem
[03:37] <lotuspsychje> Tex_Nick: cool, well like wilee-nilee here says, it might be still little rough..i think we better wait a little longer
[03:39] <Tex_Nick> lotuspsychje: yeah, i'm sure wilee-nilee ir right ... i have no choice though ... kids won't even let me play with it ;-)
[03:39] <lotuspsychje> haha
[03:40] <lotuspsychje> well i only want ubuntu's safety on any device i buy, so no android Os for me
[03:41] <lotuspsychje> ill wait until the #ubuntu-touch guys work it all out for us :p
[03:42] <lotuspsychje> w0lfsen: i would try a 13.04 clean, see what it does for your laptop mate
[03:43] <lotuspsychje> w0lfsen: installed this version on more then 10 machines, and didnt have 1 driver issue yet..
[03:43] <w0lfsen> lotuspsyche 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 difference
[03:43] <lotuspsychje> w0lfsen: it might, but if you still wanna choose xubuntu's speed an easyness, stick to re-ask your issue mate
[03:43] <lotuspsychje> w0lfsen: its all about your needs
[03:44] <w0lfsen> lotuspsyche 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.
[03:45] <w0lfsen> lotuspsyche 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 ;)
[03:46] <lotuspsychje> w0lfsen: if you like unity, 13.04 will workout fine for your laptop
[03:46] <w0lfsen> lotuspsyche what is unity?
[03:46] <lotuspsychje> !unity | w0lfsen
[03:46] <w0lfsen> lotuspsyche sure! Why not. :)
[03:47] <w0lfsen> btw since I saw you talking about it. Regarding options for encryption and data security what smart phone OS is the best?
[03:47] <lotuspsychje> w0lfsen: well we can only support ubuntu issues in here mate
[03:47] <w0lfsen> lotuspsyche have a similar wealth of knowledge about smartphones as about linux O_o
[03:48] <lotuspsychje> w0lfsen: but you try #ubuntu-touch if you wanna know more
[03:48] <lotuspsychje> !touch | w0lfsen
[03:48] <w0lfsen> lotuspsyche kk thanks. I appreciate that you took the time to help me. Have a nice evening!
[03:49] <lotuspsychje> w0lfsen: np mate, if you got more issues plz come back here, always crew to help you out here
[03:49] <w0lfsen> lotuspsychje I am sure I will come back with more issues. Cheers, mate.

[04:18] <MarconM> anyone ?
[04:20] <coolack> hello all
[04:24] <coolack> so is this better then fedora?
[04:25] <holstein> !best | coolack
[04:25] <holstein> you can apply that to distros. ."better" is a matter of opinion
[04:25] <MarconM> yes
[04:25] <holstein> coolack: fedora is OT here
[04:26] <coolack> OT?
[04:26] <coolack> well i'm a total noob to linux
[04:26] <holstein> !ot | coolack
[04:26] <coolack> i want to learn it to replace windows xp machines in my network
[04:26] <coolack> since ms is stopping support for it soon
[04:26] <coolack> i feel linux would be a safer O/S?
[04:26] <holstein> coolack: try ubuntu or any of the variants live
[04:27] <holstein> coolack: what you know will likely be safer..
[04:27] <coolack> so it would be best just to stick with windows xp
[04:27] <coolack> I'm ready to just stay on my iphone like most americans now lol
[04:27] <holstein> coolack: again, "best" is a matter of opinion
[04:27] <coolack> well i don't know linux at all
[04:27] <holstein> i switch from XP years ago, and quite enjoy linux, and it suits my needs well
[04:27] <coolack> so should i even bother?
[04:28] <holstein> coolack: if you would like.. its free to try, and free of charge to use
[04:28] <coolack> i'm a pc gamer and always used windows,  but now the pc industry is dying hard
[04:28] <coolack> and i have like 3 pcs here my family uses xp on
[04:28] <Bitwise> How do I compile gcc? I'm trying to upgrade to 4.8.1 from 4.6.3
[04:28] <Bitwise> I tried ./configure but it complains about lacking build tools
[04:28] <miscellt> Any postfix experts on ATM?
[04:28] <Jordan_U> Bitwise: What is your end goal?
[04:28] <holstein> coolack: xo is OT here
[04:28] <holstein> xp*
[04:29] <holstein> coolack: download ubuntu or one of the variants and try it live
[04:29] <Bitwise> Jordan_U, Update to the latest version of gcc so I can use C++11 features
[04:29] <coolack> i'm more interested in what the community is like to get help from.  mind if i lurk?
[04:29] <holstein> coolack: nope.. and ask relevant questions.. you are welcome
[04:30] <coolack> the  #fedora room was not very friendly
[04:30] <holstein> coolack: check the /topics of the channels you join.. and be sure you are folling guidelines
[04:31] <miscellt> Sorry to hear it coolack. As mentioned above the liveCD is a fantastic option.
[04:31] <holstein> following*
[04:31] <coolack> ubuntu is diff commands though right?
[04:31] <coolack> i mean its debian not rpm correct?
[04:31] <Jordan_U> Bitwise: You can run "sudo apt-get build-dep gcc" to get all needed build dpendencies.
[04:31] <wiggmpk> I 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)
[04:32] <Bitwise> Jordan_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.
[04:33] <Jordan_U> coolack: 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_U> Bitwise: Do you know what "build dependencies" are?
[04:34] <Bitwise> Yes, I'm a developer.
[04:34] <coolack> in the fedora channel they would have called me an idiot for not knowing that lol
[04:34] <holstein> coolack: 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 soon
[04:35] <holstein> coolack: 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] <Jordan_U> coolack: Please stick to Ubuntu support discussion and avoid offtopic comments.
[04:35] <coolack> ya i might do a live cd with ubuntu.  i been using fedora for a week just installed it to my hdd.  will i be able to wipe it out?
[04:35] <coolack> with the ubuntu install?
[04:36] <holstein> coolack: the installer will give you the options
[04:36] <coolack> ok
[04:36] <Jordan_U> coolack: Yes, you can replace your Fedora installation with Ubuntu. Make sure that you back up any files from your Fedora installation first though.
[04:37] <holstein> you can dual boot fedora and ubuntu
[04:37] <Bitwise> Can someone aid me in updating gcc? I've gone through the standard procedure to no avail.
[04:38] <coolack> ya no i want to wipe out fedora.  i'm dual booting with windows 7
[04:38] <holstein> Bitwise: standard would be "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade".. what are you trying?
[04:38] <holstein> coolack: the installer will present you options..
[04:38] <Bitwise> holstein, I tried that, I tried to dl a mirror and compile and install, I tried the package manager etc
[04:39] <holstein> Bitwise: dl a mirror?
[04:39] <Jordan_U> Bitwise: 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] <holstein> Bitwise: gcc is in the repos.. if you want to upgrade, you just upgrade the system.. what are you doing?
[04:41] <Bitwise> holstein, I tried the upgrade. It says it's up to date but it's not judging by --version.
[04:41] <Bitwise> Jordan_U, All the dependencies were for Java. They aren't required for building from the source.
[04:42] <Jordan_U> Bitwise: Please pastebin the complete output of "sudo apt-get build-dep gcc" and of "./configure" in gcc's source tree.
[04:44] <Bitwise> http://pastebin.com/HaFUGKTF
[04:46] <Jordan_U> Bitwise: 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 tha
[04:46] <TXRoadkill> I've been using SeaMonkey Composer in Ubuntu for quite some time, but it apparently no longer supported by Ubuntu as of 13.04.  Is there something else available which is as simple to use as Composer?
[04:46] <xavier23> Hi…….anyone know - how to compare 2 binary files in linux? i have 2 qr codes, need to check they are identical
[04:46] <xavier23> Tks
[04:49] <xangua> TXRoadkill: yes, you can download seamonkey from it's web :)
[04:57] <Seven_Six_Two> it seems that I can
[04:57] <Seven_Six_Two> sorry. I can't install Steam from the USC
[04:58] <holstein> !steam
[04:59] <Seven_Six_Two> holstein, thanks.
[05:00] <coolack> so i guess its safe to say ubuntu is better for gaming then fedora? lol
[05:01] <holstein> coolack: you can say what you like about fedora in the OT channel.. please /join it and discuss there
[05:02] <holstein> coolack: afaik, nothing is preventing steam from running on other distros
 TXRoadkill: yes, you can download seamonkey from it's web :) << I'm wary of installing anything that the Ubuntu Software Center doesn't offer.  There might be compatibility issues
[05:27] <holstein> TXRoadkill: its not offered. so you either get it from there, or use another browser from the repos
[05:28] <TXRoadkill> holstein> TXRoadkill: its not offered. so you either get it from there, or use another browser from the repos << I use Firefox and Chrome, neither of which offers a composing utility (as far as I know)
[05:29] <TXRoadkill> is there a WYSIWYG add-on for FF?
[05:29] <holstein> TXRoadkill: that is the *only* way to have seamonkey.. there are other tools for what you are trying to do
[05:29] <holstein> i have used kompozer
[05:29] <holstein> !kompozer
[05:30] <holstein> not sure if its still in the repos
[05:30] <TXRoadkill> Is it available from the Ubuntu Software Center?
[05:30] <TXRoadkill> Yeah, that's the think
[05:30] <TXRoadkill> *thing
[05:30] <TXRoadkill> big changes in Ubuntu 13
[05:30] <holstein> TXRoadkill: i dont use the software center.. but *all* package managers access your sources
[05:30] <TXRoadkill> Want to make sure it's compatible
[05:30] <holstein> TXRoadkill: you search in the package manger of your choice
[05:31] <TXRoadkill> not sure what you're saying
[05:31] <TXRoadkill> How do I make sure the software is compatible by Conical standards?
[05:31] <holstein> TXRoadkill: its not
[05:32] <TXRoadkill> right, which is why I like to use the Software Center
[05:32] <holstein> TXRoadkill: if it were, it would be in the repos.. and its not. so, if you want it, you'll need to get it from the site.. of youre not comfortable with that (and i understand) you'll have to try other application
[05:32] <TXRoadkill> does anyone know of something I can download from there which will do the job?
[05:32] <holstein> TXRoadkill: the software center is just a package manager
[05:32] <holstein> TXRoadkill: is kompozer available?
[05:32] <TXRoadkill> Yes, but approved packages
[05:32] <holstein> TXRoadkill: ?
[05:32] <TXRoadkill> let me check
[05:33] <holstein> TXRoadkill: no.. *all* the packages in the repos are "approved"
[05:33] <holstein> TXRoadkill: you are mistaken
[05:33] <coolack> haha i think i have to give up on linux
[05:34] <TXRoadkill> "no items match komposer"
[05:34] <holstein> TXRoadkill: what do you want to do?
[05:35] <holstein> TXRoadkill: seamonkey is not in the repos, and you can get it from the site.. do you want to do that?
[05:35] <holstein> TXRoadkill: do you want me to search for another wysiwyg editor?
[05:35] <TXRoadkill> WYSIWYG composing, like Netscape/SeaMonkey composer
[05:35] <madprops> what's the command to open Disk Utility?
[05:35] <holstein> madprops: gparted?
[05:35] <somsip> madprops: palimpset?
[05:36] <madprops> palimpset doesn't work
[05:36] <madprops> :/
[05:36] <miscellt> Anyone have experience with postfix as a relay?
[05:36] <somsip> madprops: palimpsest ...not a bad first guess :)
[05:36] <somsip> !info palimpsest
[05:36] <somsip> !find palimpsest
[05:36] <madprops> it doesn't work, plus that's a funny name
[05:36] <TXRoadkill> There's something called Quick 'n Easy Web Builder
[05:36] <TXRoadkill> might try that
[05:36] <somsip> Hmm. Is that the right one...
[05:37] <TXRoadkill> oops, they want $20 for it :/
[05:37] <somsip> madprops: From wiki: Disks was previously known as GNOME Disk Utility or palimpsest. So it may be something else now
[05:39] <holstein> !aptana
[05:39] <lshkn> hi all, it is possible to change owner of a file with setfacl ?
[05:39] <holstein> !chown | lshkn
[05:40] <lshkn> holstein: tnx, so with setfacl it is impossible
[05:41] <holstein> lshkn: i dont use it.. i change ownership with chown
[05:42] <holstein> TXRoadkill: http://bluegriffon.org/pages/Download
[05:43] <Kartagis> lshkn: man setfacl says it's not possible
[05:43] <TXRoadkill> Can that be loaded as a FF Add-On?
[05:44] <lshkn> Kartagis: tnx
[05:44] <TXRoadkill> yeah, not in their Add-Ons :/
[05:44] <holstein> TXRoadkill: that? you mean the link i gave? i would just read it, and see if it meets your needs.. if i wanted a ff addon i would search https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/
[05:44] <TXRoadkill> as I said, compatibility is the big issue
[05:45] <TXRoadkill> just checked from FF
[05:45] <holstein> TXRoadkill: its html.. it'll edit html
[05:45] <bray90820> can anyone help me ether a bootloader or change the asserts for a rom so i can install it on my device
[05:45] <bray90820> oops
[05:45] <bray90820> wrong room
[05:45] <TXRoadkill> Yeah, but I might as well load SeaMonkey
[05:45] <TXRoadkill> if I'm going to go with unapproved software
[05:46] <TXRoadkill> and I don;t want to do that
[05:46] <holstein> TXRoadkill: its not "unapproved".. its not included
[05:46] <holstein> TXRoadkill: its just not in the repos.. we dont konw why
[05:46] <TXRoadkill> Ubuntu would consider it '3rd party'
[05:46] <holstein> TXRoadkill: so
[05:47] <TXRoadkill> I'm still trying to figure out why they dropped the SeaMonkey Project from the repos
[05:47] <holstein> TXRoadkill: its not there.  what you want is not in the repos. so, you'll need to add it
[05:47] <TXRoadkill> They must have had a reason
[05:47] <linocisco> what is the opensource software on sourceforge to check bill payment which is paid or unpaid or due date or underprocess or something like that?
[05:47] <linocisco> what is the opensource software on sourceforge to check bill payment which is paid or unpaid or due date or underprocess or something like that
[05:47] <linocisco> ?
[05:47] <holstein> linocisco: check sourceforge.. this is the ubuntu channel
[05:48] <holstein> TXRoadkill: bluegriffon has ubuntu 13.04 support
[05:49] <TXRoadkill> So does SeaMonkey lol
[05:49] <TXRoadkill> not the point
[05:50] <TXRoadkill> I'll try checking out the Software Center some more
[05:50] <holstein> TXRoadkill: if you want something that is not in the repos, you'll have to install it
[05:50] <TXRoadkill> Can't believe they wouldn't have included a WYSIWYG composer in there somewhere
[05:50] <TXRoadkill> Thanks for your help :)
[05:51] <holstein> !nvu
[05:52] <holstein> TXRoadkill: i havent used one in a while.. i would just install what you want, and know how to remove it
[05:52] <TXRoadkill> That's what I'm trying to avoid
[05:52] <TXRoadkill> It's not that I can't do it, but I want my Ubuntu system to be as generic as possible
[05:52] <holstein> TXRoadkill: sure.. just dont avoid it.. its literlly what you asked for when you came here
[05:52] <TXRoadkill> only what they offer
[05:52] <rosco_y> I'm using 13.04;  how can I force a fsck on reboot?
[05:53] <holstein> TXRoadkill: just install it.. know what you do to remove it
[05:53] <holstein> !fsck
[05:53] <TXRoadkill> Thanks again folks...
[05:53] <rosco_y> holstein: thank you :)
[05:59] <rohan_> my Sony laptop runs very hot on linux, even after installing bumblebee for power management. i have also installed TLP.
[05:59] <rohan_> any other tricks i can try?
[06:02] <miscellt> rohan_ outside of a physical solution have you considered something along the lines of http://wiki.debian.org/HowTo/CpuFrequencyScaling
[06:03] <rohan_> miscellt: thanks, i will try that
[06:15] <Ashael> hello. does anyone know of a permanent solution to bcmwl broadcom sta driver problems? I seem to have that dreadful driver that malfunctions every reboot.
[06:16] <BALTA00> Hello
[06:16] <Ben64> permanent solution is to get a different card
[06:17] <BALTA00> Anyone know how make down ubuntu 12.04 bar?
[06:17] <BALTA00> I mean it: http://sphotos-g.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/1025888_10200687587703897_719884835_o.jpg
[06:18] <sere> Ashael: what do you mean? whats the problem
[06:19] <BALTA00> anyone can help me?
[06:19] <Ashael> Ben64: thanks! new computer, so no cigar.
[06:19] <mathfreak> BALTA00: Are you asking about how to move the top bar to the bottom?
[06:19] <BALTA00> yes
[06:19] <Ben64> Ashael: i didn't say new computer... i said new wireless card
[06:19] <BALTA00> I want this down, like Windows OS
[06:19] <sere> Ashael: why waste money when you can just fix it
[06:20] <Ashael> sere: I have a 4313 setup. the bcmwl-kernel-source package contains a driver for it. every reboot, the wireless connections disappear.
[06:20] <Ashael> sere: beats me, Ben64 thinks I should.
[06:20] <mathfreak> BALTA00: Hmm... I'm not too familiar with Unity, but you might want to take a look at Unity Tweak.
[06:20] <Ben64> Ashael: they have usb wireless cards for like $10
[06:20] <mathfreak> BALTA00: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2013/02/introducing-unity-tweak-tool
[06:21] <sere> Ashael: im on : 02:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4313 802.11b/g/n Wireless LAN Controller (rev 01)
[06:21] <Augustus> Hello, is this the help channel? I've got a GRUB issue
[06:21] <mathfreak> Augustus: Yes. Ask away
[06:22] <Augustus> Okay, so earlier today I installed Ubuntu 13.04 x86_64 alongside Windows 7 and now I can't boot into Windows 7. Both operating systems are 64-bit
[06:22] <sere> Ashael: remove the driver then reboot.. it should work just fine
[06:22] <Ashael> Ben64: i have a perfectly good wireless card inside the laptop. why buy a new one? besides, it's $10 USD where YOU live :P
[06:22] <Ashael> 03:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Broadcom Corporation BCM4313 802.11b/g/n Wireless LAN Controller [14e4:4727] (rev 01) 	Subsystem: Broadcom Corporation Device [14e4:0587]
[06:22] <Ashael> sere: been there, done that
[06:23] <Ashael> 14e4:4727 seems to be notorious for that problem.
[06:23] <tr0n> .
[06:24] <mathfreak> Augustus: Does the partition for Windows show up anywhere in your file manager/browser?
[06:24] <tr0n> its for the better, window$ is evil anyways
[06:24] <sere> Ashael: for someone reason with my card it didnt work with sta drivers but when i removed them and rebooted it was just fine.. i came to this solution when noticing it was working right out of box install
[06:24] <mathfreak> Augustus: If you want to be thorough, you can also check with the Disk Utility tool, or with "sudo fdisk -l" in the terminal
[06:24] <BALTA00> mathfreak: I try do it, but that have error, is out base, said "W: Imposible obtener http://ppa.launchpad.net/freyja-dev/unity-tweak-tool-daily/ubuntu/dists/precise/main/source/Sources  404  Not Found"
[06:25] <Ashael> sere: sounds about right... except I don't think it works for me. do you mean removing the package?
[06:25] <BALTA00> BALTA00 !es
[06:25] <BALTA00> !es BALTA00
[06:26] <sere> Ashael: you can use jockey-gtk but yes .. let me check and see what drivers i have installed
[06:26] <Augustus> mathfreak: I can see files from my Windows partition via the file manager in Ubuntu and fdisk shows me two partitions and then says GPT detected on '/dev/sdb/'
[06:27] <mathfreak> BALTA00: Let me see what's up here. It'll take a moment.
[06:27] <mathfreak> Augustus: Have you tried running "sudo update-grub2"?
[06:27] <BALTA00> Ok, I waith :)
[06:28] <nerdtron> Augustus: just "sudo update-grub"
[06:29] <Augustus> I did sudo update-grub but before that I thought I could fix everything by booting into my win7 installation disc and running bootsec /fixmbr and bootsec /fixboot but that didn't do anything
[06:29] <Augustus> I'll try sudo update-grub2 then
[06:30] <mathfreak> BALTA00: Which version of Ubuntu are you running?
[06:30] <BALTA00> 12.04
[06:31] <Ben64> Ashael: $10 isn't very much. I guess it depends how much you value your time
[06:31] <sere> Ashael: yea i have no drivers installed from repo.. however i have brcmsmac module loaded.. i would purge the installed drivers and then load the module
[06:31] <BALTA00> how i can delete a repository?
[06:31] <Ashael> hmm how do i do that?
[06:32] <sere> Ashael: try to run jockey-gtk .. you might not have it installed.. thats we can do if from command if needed
[06:32] <mathfreak> BALTA00: sudo add-apt-reposity --remove ppa:freyja-dev/unity-tweak-tool-daily
[06:33] <Ashael> Ben64: it isn't, but you assume I earn in $USD. That is incorrect, nor does the card cost $10 wherever you buy it, regardless of locality :P
[06:33] <Ashael> sere: I have it.
[06:33] <mathfreak> BALTA00: It looks like Unity Tweak isn't offered for 12.04 anymore.
[06:34] <sere> Ashael: sweet.. so just remove the connect installed package and then reboot.. and load the brcmsmac module
[06:34] <Ben64> Ashael: you only assume i assume you earn in usd
[06:34] <BALTA00> :/
[06:34] <Ashael> hmf. need to wait for a large copy to finish
[06:34] <Ashael> Ben64: it is quite evident from your previous comments.
[06:35] <Ben64> just because i list a price in USD does not mean you have to earn USD
[06:35] <Augustus> mathfreak: didn't work, and when I try booting into Ubuntu the screen goes black and I have to restart the computer and select the partition through the UEFI BIOS. When I try Windows 7 GRUB tells me invalid EFI path
[06:36] <Ashael> Ben64: true. it does assume the cost, though.
[06:37] <Ashael> gah. the water cooler is making this horrible screeching noise. hope the laptop didn't infect it with gremlins.
[06:37] <Ben64> 10USD = 35.88ILS / 23.12 = 1.55 hours. If it takes longer than that to get the broadcom working, it's a waste of time.
[06:37] <Ashael> hehehe
[06:38] <sere> Ben64: if you enjoy blowing throwing away money you can throw some this way :P
[06:39] <Ben64> well i only buy stuff that works with linux already, so I don't have to
[06:39] <mathfreak> Augustus: I think this thread has information relevant to your issue: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1904422
[06:39] <Augustus> to clarify, Windows is installed on /dev/sda and Ubuntu is installed on /dev/sdb
[06:39] <Ashael> actually, I don't earn per hour, but anyway, I'll consider that if all fails. it seems that I have the same problem as sere here did, though, so I hope I'll be able to fix it. it used to run fine until recently, when i played around with the kernel.
[06:39] <Augustus> oh
[06:40] <aeon-ltd> Ben64: not entirely accurate, that assumes you would spend the time consecutively as you would work. If you could place a value on flexibility then it'd be more useful to the user
[06:41] <Ashael> aeon-ltd: nice one. want to come help me with my research? it has to do with the marginal value theorem.
[06:41] <aeon-ltd> Ashael: how's the pay?
[06:42] <Ashael> aeon-ltd: decent.
[06:42] <aeon-ltd> Ashael: do i need a degree?
[06:42] <Augustus> mathfreak: I don't understand this thread
[06:42] <Augustus> is there anyway I can use GParted to make my Windows partition bootable
[06:43] <Ashael> weeeeeeell... one in biology would help.
[06:43] <Ashael> caveat: I work with rattlesnakes and vipers.
[06:43] <aeon-ltd> well i don't have any or any college education...
[06:43] <sere> Augustus: did you lose your grub ?
[06:43] <Augustus> sere: grub is there, I just can't boot into Windows
[06:44] <Ashael> Augustus: is that a BAD thing? :D
[06:44] <Augustus> Yes it's a very bad thing
[06:44] <nevyn> Augustus: are you on amd64?
[06:45] <Augustus> I installed from the ubuntu 13.04 amd64 iso
[06:46] <mathfreak> Hmm... I'll have to do some reading on this, Augustus.
[06:46] <sere> Augustus: is the option to boot when windows there and you get an error. or no option
[06:46] <Guest38457> josss de putaaaaa
[06:47] <Guest38457> jajajajajaa
[06:47] <Augustus> sere: the error is Invalid EFI path
[06:47] <Guest38457> comerme el perone
[06:47] <Guest38457> fucking bitchesss
[06:47] <natanael> no
[06:48] <Guest38457> do you like penys'
[06:48] <Guest38457> ?
[06:48] <Ben64> !ops
[06:48] <Guest38457> gayssss
[06:48] <mauryaarun> dear friends please suggest a channel for network security  or linux security
[06:48] <Ashael> hmf. troll.
[06:49] <Ben64> mauryaarun: ##networking can probably help for network security, depending on what type of linux security... here, or #linux, or maybe a more focused channel
[06:49] <vlt> Hello. If you wanted to playback a list of audio files with customisable crossfades, so that on key press the next (or a certain selected) track immediately fades in, for example, in 150 ms while the currently running fades out in 750 ms, what would you use? Any idea? Is there something I can script?
[06:49] <Ashael> potofcoffee: that is one awesome nick.
[06:49] <sere> Ashael: i prefer to shoot the whole apple tree and then pick them off the ground. optimizing efficiency and speed :o
[06:50] <Ashael> sere: probably a good call. I'm waiting for a huge copy to finish.
[06:50] <Ashael> then I'll try
[06:50] <Augustus> okay
[06:51] <Augustus> if I can't boot into WIndows, is there some way I can delete all the Ubuntu partitions and GRUB and then boot back into Windows?
[06:51] <Augustus> or is that setting myself up for disaster
[06:51] <sere> Ashael: no worries. jk anyway ;)
[06:51] <Ashael> Augustus: probably using a usb drive with the iso on it.
[06:52] <Augustus> a usb drive with Ubuntu to delete Ubuntu partitions?
[06:52] <Augustus> and what about GRUB will that be gone too or do I have to do something special
[06:53] <sere> Augustus: check out https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFIBooting
[06:53] <Ashael> sure. you can run the installation from the usb and use it to delete the partitions. you'd have to then reboot into windows, and fix the boot from there.
[06:53] <Ashael> or you can try installing ubuntu again, maybe that will fix the dual boot and you'll have access to both.
[06:54] <Ashael> (GRUB changed the boot so you won't automatically boot to windows, if you asked it to - that requires another step once you manage to log in to Windows)
[06:55] <Ashael> note to self: do not use cp in terminal to copy a 30 gb dir
[06:56] <Augustus> hm
[06:56] <vlt> Ashael: You can abort it and continue using rsync.
[06:56] <Augustus> I will be back in a few hours, I gotta sleep on this. (It's really late/early here)
[06:57] <Ashael> vlt: yeah, not really urgent. I'm just impatient.
[06:59] <mathfreak> Augustus: I think MBR and GPT might have been mixed together on your install (which is bad). Can't help much more than this, though. Sorry
[07:00] <Ashael> mathfreak: he left
[07:02] <suore> Hello, i've problem i want to install wine 1.5, but shows thast packge wine1.5 require wine 1.6 but cannot be installed.

[07:25] <nait> hello there!!
[07:26] <nait> I wanna do the distupgrade some one can help me?
[07:27] <utfans05> nait: in a terminal run sudo apt-get update, then sudo apt-get upgrade, then sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[07:27] <nait> just that?
[07:27] <nait> utfans05, I have the 10.04
[07:28] <utfans05> and your looking to go to a newer version?
[07:28] <nait> yes
[07:28] <Jordan_U> nait: "distupgrade" is not a good term to use, as "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" does *not* upgrade you from one release of Ubuntu to another.
[07:28] <Jordan_U> !upgrade | nait
[07:29] <nait> Jordan_U,  thnx
[07:29] <Jordan_U> nait: You're welcome.

[08:01] <folorn> anyone got time to help with a small problem im having with Gringotts?
[08:01] <reisio> folorn: not anyone, but probably some ones
[08:02] <folorn> lemme vpaste it quick
[08:02] <folorn> http://vpaste.net/PmLSk
[08:03] <folorn> there's the error im having the issue
[08:05] <folorn> well if someone has any suggestions please let me know
[08:08] <gordonjcp> lifeboy: could be, but just use chap-secrets until you get *something* working and then start to play
[08:08] <lifeboy> gordonjcp: Will do that.  If I do find something that works, I'll write up about it and report back.  Thanks!
[08:14] <a111> Is there a way to load everything apart from /home into a RAM disk when Ubuntu boots? Is there any downsides to doing it?
[08:17] <MonkeyDust> a111  sounds like a live session
[08:17] <MonkeyDust> more or less
[08:20] <DJones> a111: 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 at
[08:20] <Tex_Nick> a111: another question there might be ... are there any benefits ?
[08:21] <JoeDM> I don't see much point in running everything in RAM, It would be extremely volatile and exposed to a lot of errors.
[08:21] <reisio> you would if you were rich :p
[08:22] <ActionParsnip> JoeDM: speed
[08:22] <JoeDM> If I was rich I would be using SSD. Yeah its fast but ECC Memorys exist for a reason
[08:22] <DJones> a111: 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 up
[08:22] <a111> 32GB
[08:23] <DJones> a111: Nice
[08:23] <JoeDM> I know a lot of people in the minecraft community like to run things on RAM so there must be a way
[08:23] <Tex_Nick> DJones:  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 bit
[08:23] <JoeDM> check this out https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BootToRAM
[08:24] <somsip> a111: preload might help you. Adding a load of oft-used software to start on loging might help you
[08:24] <somsip> *login
[08:25] <Tex_Nick> DJones: i really should have posted that to a111
[08:26] <DJones> Tex_Nick: Interesting & good to know, what I read about it was that it could lead to slow downs in that the system would be using a lot more memory and wouldn't be releasing memory for unused app's
[08:26] <ER> #()
[08:26] <ER> OLAA
[08:26] <songo_> hello
[08:27] <Guest52150> OLAAAAA
[08:28] <JoeDM> Just had a thought. You could use a program like Sardu to create a bootable RAM disk of a Ubuntu live CD and run it all from RAM that way
[08:29] <Tex_Nick> DJones: yes sir ... i just couldn't see a noticeable increase in performance ... on slower box's with sufficient memory it might help ?
[08:30] <JoeDM> TBH I don't think you would see a noticable performance increase for every day activities
[08:30] <peawormsworth> I am looking to buy a new SD card for use with Ubuntu. I have class 10, but also see there is know UHS-1.
[08:30] <peawormsworth> Does ubuntu support UHS-1 SD cards?
[08:31] <DJones> Tex_Nick: I guess a slower boot would be expected due to loading everything into memory
[08:31] <elfenixtorres> I'm wondering, despite that I like Ubuntu, why is the word 'Linux' gone from the Ubuntu website?
[08:31] <JoeDM> Ubuntu will run on the SD card but remember they usually only have read/write speeds of around 50mb/s
[08:32] <MonkeyDust> this line in fstab loads /tmp into RAM, it boosts my system           tmpfs /tmp tmpfs defaults,noexec,nosuid 0 0
[08:32] <JoeDM> compared to like 100-150mb/s for HDD
[08:33] <peawormsworth> I run Ubuntu on SD class 10 cards. I am curious whether ubuntu will have any problems with the UHS-1 type.
[08:33] <reisio> easy way to find out
[08:34] <JoeDM> should work if you have an interface for it
[08:35] <JoeDM> With that said I have had a server which can't boot from a standard USB with ubuntu on it... So hardware may affect things
[08:35] <minimec> peawormsworth: 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] <peawormsworth> i 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?
[08:36] <somsip> peawormsworth: a quick search suggests it's more about kernel compatibility
[08:36] <JoeDM> I didn't think they were any faster to be honest
[08:36] <Tex_Nick> DJones: "spinning rust disk" i liked that ;-)
[08:36] <minimec> peawormsworth: You can use them without problem. I have one of these. They are stable and backwards compatible.
[08:37] <peawormsworth> thanks minimec. I will try buying one then.
[08:37] <JoeDM> speeds are only 80/40 MB per second. I would run it for convinience only
[08:37] <mariko> hello
[08:37] <regularjo> hello
[08:38] <reisio> hello
[08:38] <peawormsworth> i am not worried about getting the speed from it. The UHS-1 cards are cheaper right now.
[08:40] <peawormsworth> JoeDM: my experience in the past is that I will not even get 1/2 that speed.
[08:40] <JoeDM> If 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"
[08:44] <ActionParsnip> JoeDM: If you do video / audio encoding, if you put the file to manipulate in tempfs it will go faster than any physical drive you can buy :)
[08:45] <Nickwiz> IIRC when I used: sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sdxX /mnt/usb_with_fat32, all files and directories used to get 0777 permissions. When I do it now they get 0755. Has there been a change, or do I remember incorrectly?
[08:48] <Tex_Nick> ActionParsnip: you're who introduced me to tempfs a year or so ago ... i've used it on several new builds including this box ... i do a lot of video transcoding with ffmpeg ... i need to give that a shot ;-)
[08:55] <theahindle> Howdy - trying to get java jdk on latest version of ubuntu
[08:56] <theahindle> if I changed sources.list to add non-free, apt-get update and apt-cache search - it's not there
[08:56] <theahindle> do I need to remove restricted or is it not non-free anymore, or is it not in the repos?

[09:11] <Guest77519> hello, could somebody please explain what "network twain" is? I have an oki mc342dn and i need to scan from an ubuntu box
[09:11] <silver_moon> hi, somebody help, i was running kde, and in a yakuake terminal dropdown i started distro upgrade, as the distro upgrade started installing software packages the desktop suddenly became unstable and now I cant see the yakuake terminal
[09:12] <silver_moon> how to bring up the yakuake terminal
[09:12] <reisio> rudolf_: ?
[09:12] <reisio> silver_moon: you could try with reptyr
[09:12] <DJones> Guest77519: TWAIN is a software protocol/API to communicate between software and scannners
[09:13] <silver_moon> reisio: what should i exactly do ?
[09:13] <silver_moon> actually now i see a broken desktop, half gnome and half kde on the screen
[09:13] <reisio> silver_moon: install reptyr, run reptyr
[09:13] <Guest77519> DJones: understood but what is "network twain"?
[09:13] <silver_moon> cant, the distro upgrade is going on
[09:13] <silver_moon> i somehow need to bring up the yakuake terminal
[09:14] <reisio> silver_moon: CTRL+ALT+F2 will get you a console, potentially
[09:14] <reisio> +F7 will get you back to X
[09:14] <nanyaks_> i need to sort 'ls' output via file names, any ideas?
[09:14] <Guest77519> DJones: I'm trying to use xsane to scan from the oki but not working
[09:14] <reisio> nanyaks_: ls | sort
[09:14] <silver_moon> thats a separate console, i need the yakuake console where the distro upgrade is going on
[09:15] <DJones> Guest77519: How is the scanner connected? Is it via USB or is it a network scanner on another machine
[09:15] <Guest77519> DJones: network
[09:15] <Guest77519> DJones: ipv4
[09:15] <nanyaks_> reisio:yeah, but doesn't 'ls' have options to sort?
[09:15] <reisio> nanyaks_: sure
[09:15] <silver_moon> hi, by knowing the pid of a terminal, is it possible to get that terminals output in another terminal ?
[09:15] <reisio> silver_moon: already told you how
[09:15] <silver_moon> means extract its stdout
[09:16] <Louwrens> Hello
[09:16] <reisio> Louwrens: hi
[09:16] <Louwrens> I've got a resize2fs process running and i think it's gonna take a while. can I press CTRL-C?
[09:17] <reisio> good question
[09:17] <DJones> Guest77519: My experience has only been with HP scanners over networks, I can't think of anything to suggest for you for an OKI scanner
[09:18] <Guest77519> DJones: ok, i was hoping network twain was a protocol the xsane could somehow interact with
[09:19] <Louwrens> does anyone know a good chat where I can ask about lvm questions?
[09:19] <Louwrens> thanks, reisio
[09:19] <reisio> Louwrens: #linux
[09:20] <ActionParsnip> Tex_Nick: its a tonne faster, your HDD is a lot slower than RAM, obviously you need to appreciate apps need to run etc but if you have a tonne of RAM then go for it
[09:21] <DJones> Guest77519: About the only thing I can find is the sane-project list of supported scanner at http://www.sane-project.org/sane-backends.html which doesn't list the scanner you mentioned
[09:22] <rudolf_> reisio, I mean is there anything like hibernate in ubuntu?
[09:22] <reisio> rudolf_: yes
[09:22] <rudolf_> What is it?
[09:22] <jony_easyrider> it is possible to create on Ubuntu server a job which will be executed automatically at a certain date and time?
[09:22] <Gryllida> it's 'hibernate'
[09:22] <somsip> !crontab | jony_easyrider
[09:22] <Gryllida> jony_easyrider: yes, use cron
[09:23] <ActionParsnip> jony_easyrider: you can use at
[09:23] <jony_easyrider> ty all
[09:23] <Catalystic> is there a gui to cron?
[09:23] <ActionParsnip> jony_easyrider: for a single shot use at, for repeated things use cron
[09:23] <reisio> rudolf_: are you using a laptop?
[09:23] <rudolf_> Gryllida, but why I am not seeing that function? I see just suspend, logout and powerout.
[09:23] <ActionParsnip> Catalystic: gnome-schedule
[09:23] <rudolf_> reisio, yeah
[09:24] <jony_easyrider> cron can owerwrite a file with another?
[09:24] <reisio> cron can do anything
[09:24] <Gryllida> rudolf_: https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/ubuntu-help/power-hibernate.html
[09:24] <Guest77519> DJones: ok, thanks anyway
[09:24] <somsip> jony_easyrider: cron just schedules commands to run. If the command can do what you need it to do, then you're sorted
[09:25] <ActionParsnip> jony_easyrider: each user has a cron, so the access will be effective as the cron. If you cron as root you can do anything
[09:25] <Paws> hello..
[09:25] <jony_easyrider> somsip, ok, but if it needs to overwrite with sudo?
[09:25] <somsip> jony_easyrider: like ActionParsnip just said - you setup the cronjob with 'sudo crontab -e' so you are editing root's crontab
[09:25] <Tex_Nick> ActionParsnip: yes sir i have 16GB of RAM ... i might as well be using it for something ...99% of the time only a bit is being used ;-) ... thanks for the thought
[09:25] <Paws> i have a question about watch.. when i do watch du -H --max-depth=1 - it works the first time, then after the first interval it spits out an error
[09:26] <Paws> du: WARNING: use --si, not -H; the meaning of the -H option will soon change to be the same as that of --dereference-args (-D)
[09:26] <ActionParsnip> Tex_Nick: well, its used for files cache
[09:26] <jony_easyrider> somsip, but it won't ask for the root's password when executing?
[09:26] <somsip> jony_easyrider: no - it runs as root
[09:26] <jony_easyrider> somsip, ty
[09:26] <Paws> nevermind
[09:27] <ActionParsnip> jony_easyrider: cron as root won't ask for password, you are root, sudoers states that root needs no password
[09:28] <MonkeyDust> i use a cronjob as root to shutdown my pc at 4am -- in case i forgot to switch it off ;)
[09:31] <rudolf_> Hey Gryllida the commands on that page did wierd things to my laptop.
[09:32] <rudolf_> My screen was divided into two parts. One part was stuck and the other was lagging. :|
[09:32] <wasanzy> hi
[09:32] <wasanzy> what do I need to connect to my server via VPN?
[09:33] <Gryllida> rudolf_: did it happen when you ran pm-hibernate, or when you were resuming from hibernate?
[09:33] <wasanzy> I intalled openvpn on a server and want to connect to that server over the vpn
[09:33] <silver_moon> hi, 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] <Koma> Is your VPN server your gateway?
[09:33] <reisio> silver_moon: I already told you
[09:34] <silver_moon> reisio: i cannot install any new packages :(
[09:34] <reisio> silver_moon: why not?
[09:34] <Koma> is the subnet that the vpn server giving to you the same subnet of the LAN ?
[09:34] <silver_moon> because already an apt-get process is running in that terminal
[09:34] <Koma> if yes there is a problem
[09:34] <Gryllida> wasanzy: openvpn is also the client, check docs at www.openvpn.net
[09:34] <reisio> silver_moon: so?
[09:34] <silver_moon> so i cannot issue another apt-get install
[09:34] <Koma> else add a routing to yhe vpn network via the openvpn server as gateway
[09:34] <Gryllida> wasanzy: so you'd have to also install it at the client machine
[09:34] <Koma> #openvpn
[09:35] <reisio> silver_moon: I told you how to overcome that as well
[09:35] <reisio> you 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] <wasanzy> I did install it on the client mechine so what else do I do?
[09:35] <wasanzy> the vpn is not my gateway and they are not in the same LAN
[09:36] <Gryllida> wasanzy: http://openvpn.net/index.php/open-source/documentation/howto.html#examples
[09:37] <wasanzy> that link is not opening
[09:37] <Gryllida> wasanzy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenVPN#Getting_Clients_Connected is official documentation on setting up the client
[09:37] <wasanzy> ok
[09:39] <rudolf_> Gryllida, my laptop didnt actually turn off after that command I think. The screen went black for 2 seconds only.
[09:40] <Gryllida> rudolf_: what is the size of your swap partition, and the size of your RAM?
[09:41] <rudolf_> Gryllida, my swap is 1.98GB and RAM is 2.0 GB
[09:42] <Honvai> What is the command to start irc server?
[09:42] <Gryllida> rudolf_: Increase swap and checking for the issue, or at least that's what that wiki page says...
[09:42] <reisio> Honvai: dpkg -L nameOfIRCServerPackage | grep bin
[09:42] <reisio> Honvai: alternatively, there might be a service you can start
[09:42] <Gryllida> Honvai: Which irc server? There are different deamons and you have to use different commands to start them.
[09:43] <Honvai> Hmm
[09:43] <wasanzy> Gryllida: 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] <wasanzy> or do I need some kind of GUI?
[09:44] <rudolf_> Gryllida, ok. One thing more. I just noticed an exclamation sign near a ntfs partition in gparted. Is there some prob?
[09:44] <Gryllida> wasanzy: 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] <jpds> wasanzy: You can connect to the server, over SSH over the VPN.
[09:45] <Gryllida> rudolf_: Screenshot?
[09:46] <rudolf_> gryllida, ok..a min
[09:46] <Gryllida> wasanzy: 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.
[09:47] <owahi> Hi, 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?
[09:48] <wasanzy> OK
[09:49] <reisio> owahi: did you clean it?
[09:49] <wasanzy> and I don't need to do anything on the router?
[09:50] <jony_easyrider> how can I set cron to execute only once?
[09:51] <reisio> jony_easyrider: use 'at' instead
[09:53] <MonkeyDust> jony_easyrider  cron is used to execute commands repeatedly
[09:53] <owahi> reisio: he had clean hands.
[09:54] <reisio> owahi: sure he did
[09:54] <reisio> owahi: now clean your touchpad and see if anything changes
[09:54] <ActionParsnip> jony_easyrider: at is a one-shot scheduler, not repeated commands. Dead handy
[09:56] <owahi> reisio: seriously, is there a way I can get an index of all special function keys ?
[09:56] <rudolf__> Gryllida, http://tinypic.com/r/2wrghoi/5
[09:57] <Louwrens> How do I send the command to disown a process to another bash ? is it possible?
[09:57] <reisio> owahi: it'd be sensible to make sure it works at all first
[09:57] <MonkeyDust> owahi  keep the super key pressed for a few seconds
[09:57] <reisio> Louwrens: help disown ?
[09:58] <rudolf__> Gryllida, you there?
[09:58] <Gryllida> rudolf__: It's not mounted, so probably no need to worry about it and hibernate.
[09:58] <owahi> reisio: the touchpad works fine in the startup screen before I log in so no problems there.
[09:59] <rudolf__> Gryllida, see that exclamation mark? Why is it there? Is there some prob?
[09:59] <wasanzy> sorry 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] <reisio> owahi: what does 'xinput' say?
[09:59] <jrib> Louwrens: why do you want to do this?  Give more details about what exactly you are doing and why
[09:59] <owahi> MonkeyDust: no luck with that.  any other options?
[10:01] <Louwrens> Alright, 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] <jrib> Louwrens: so you've hit ctrl-z but done nothing else at this point?
[10:02] <fling> ping
[10:03] <rudolf__> reisio, can you tell what is that mark for in that pic?
[10:03] <Louwrens> I 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 shell
[10:03] <jrib> Louwrens: is it listed in "jobs" output?
[10:03] <Louwrens> I cannot get a prompt to run jobs
[10:03] <Gryllida> rudolf__: 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] <reisio> rudolf__: pic?
[10:04] <jrib> Louwrens: didn't you suspend the process?
[10:04] <dopie> how do i kill firefox process?
[10:04] <Gryllida> reisio: http://oi40.tinypic.com/2wrghoi.jpg is rudolf__'s screenshot.
[10:04] <Louwrens> yes, but somehow I do not get a prompt. I cannot run bg, disown or jobs
[10:04] <wasanzy> Gryllida?
[10:04] <Gryllida> dopie: «ps aux | grep firefox; kill pid»
[10:04] <Louwrens> it's lvresize that runs the bash script that runs the resize2fs command
[10:04] <reisio> ...which mark?
[10:05] <Gryllida> reisio: Exclamation mark, «!».
[10:05] <Gryllida> wasanzy: What's up?
[10:05] <Louwrens> jrib: thanks for your time already!
[10:05] <jrib> Louwrens: seems strange.  I guess you can try reptyr or retty maybe or consult #bash about being able to reclaim input
[10:05] <reisio> something to do with a Windows filesystem
[10:05] <reisio> ask #windows
[10:05] <Gryllida> reisio: With an NTFS filesystem and Ubuntu running a disk check on it.
[10:05] <wasanzy> Gryllida: sorry 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?
[10:05] <Tex_Nick> i 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 used
[10:05] <Gryllida> reisio: Ubuntu does support NTFS. It's not technically outside this channel scope. ;)
[10:05] <jrib> Louwrens: also, if it's crucial that lvresize completes without you killing it, I would just leave it be
[10:05] <reisio> Gryllida: no, he's running it, not Ubuntu
[10:05] <owahi> reisio: Um, I will need help deciphering what it says.  Do you want me to post the results?
[10:05] <Gryllida> reisio: Ah.
[10:05] <reisio> Gryllida: never said it was
[10:06] <reisio> owahi: sure
[10:06] <wasanzy> I am very new to vpn that is why
[10:06] <Gryllida> reisio: I'm not sure. Isn't that an Ubuntu screenshot?
[10:06] <reisio> Gryllida: of gparted run by a user, yes
[10:06] <Louwrens> jrib: 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] <Gryllida> wasanzy: With VPN, you don't need to use public IPs. Use local IPs within the range you VPNed.
[10:06] <Louwrens> jrib: I just dont want to depend on the ssh line now...
[10:07] <reisio> rudolf__: about what?
[10:07] <rudolf__> reisio, "Gryllida: no, he's running it, not Ubuntu"
[10:07] <Gryllida> reisio: 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] <reisio> rudolf__: I mean you ran it personally
[10:07] <reisio> Gryllida: I wouldn't disagree
[10:07] <reisio> and haven't
[10:07] <reisio> :D
[10:08] <uhty> Hello
[10:08] <Gryllida> rudolf__: OK, let's see what  «ntfsfix   /dev/sda8» says. If someone else here knows a better way to run a disk check on an ntfs partition, this could be cool; I have no personal experience with the subject.
[10:08] <Gryllida> uhty: Hello.
[10:09] <uhty> Hi,:) (new)
[10:09] <wasanzy> so why do I have to add this in my client.conf? remote remoteIP 1194
[10:09] <Gryllida> rudolf__: Might want to run it with «-n» switch (so it only reports, but doesn't fix anything.)
[10:09] <rudolf__> Gryllida, rudolf@rudolf-VPCEH25EN:~$ ntfsfix /dev/sda8
[10:09] <rudolf__> Mounting volume... Error opening '/dev/sda8': Permission denied
[10:09] <rudolf__> FAILED
[10:09] <rudolf__> Attempting to correct errors... Error opening '/dev/sda8': Permission denied
[10:09] <rudolf__> FAILED
[10:09] <rudolf__> Failed to startup volume: Permission denied
[10:09] <FloodBot1> rudolf__: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[10:09] <Gryllida> uhty: Welcome. What's up?
[10:09] <Gryllida> rudolf__: Run it with sudo.
[10:09] <Ben64> rudolf__: and use a pastebin
[10:10] <rudolf__> yeah, sorry
[10:10] <Gryllida> rudolf__: «sudo ntfsfix  -n  /dev/sda8».
[10:10] <Gryllida> Ben64: I'd assume there are GUI tools for that?
[10:10] <Ben64> for pastebinning?
[10:10] <Gryllida> Ben64: No, for disk checks.
[10:11] <Ben64> well, for ntfs you really should use windows
[10:11] <reisio> Gryllida: the better way is in Windows
[10:11] <wasanzy> Gryllida: so why do I have to add this in my client.conf? remote remoteIP 1194
[10:11] <reisio> Ben64: :p
[10:11] <Gryllida> rudolf__: Do you have a er, Windows install available that you can boot into?
[10:11] <Campfire> hey guys
[10:11] <Gryllida> wasanzy: No idea, I don't think 1194 even looks like an IP...
[10:12] <rudolf__> Gryllida, Mounting volume... OK..Processing of $MFT and $MFTMirr completed successfully.
[10:12] <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 have
[10:12] <Gryllida> rudolf__: Is that all output that you get?
[10:13] <wasanzy> Gryllida: no 1194 is the VPN port and that is to come after a public IP
[10:13] <rudolf__> Gryllida, yeah it gave only that much.
[10:13] <Campfire> what ubuntu distros are suported here
[10:13] <Gryllida> rudolf__: Might want to ask ##linux or, if you are willing to boot into Windows to run a disk check there, ##windows.
[10:13] <Gryllida> Campfire: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (server), 12.04 LTS, 12.10 and 13.04.
[10:14] <rudolf__> okies...gonna reboot
[10:14] <Campfire> ty gr y
[10:14] <Gryllida> wasanzy: 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-offtopic
[10:15] <Campfire> whats the difference of the server
[10:15] <Gryllida> Campfire: Server edition has no GUI and is built to run on servers (a set of preinstalled apps useful for servers rather than desktop users).
[10:15] <Campfire> i mean what can the 10.4 do
[10:15] <Campfire> ty again
[10:16] <Gryllida> Campfire: Server editions are supported a bit longer, so you see 10.04 server support, but not desktop support.
[10:16] <wasanzy> Gryllida: 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] <ActionParsnip> Campfire: they don't have a desltop UI either
[10:16] <Campfire> so like remote stuff for servers
[10:17] <Gryllida> wasanzy: You need to use public IP to tell the client what server to connect to.
[10:17] <Gryllida> wasanzy: Once the VPN is up, it it like a second LAN you're in; you needn't use public IPs to access it.
[10:18] <wasanzy> ok
[10:18] <wasanzy> I run this openvpn --config /etc/openvpn/client.conf an it seems everything is ok
[10:19] <wasanzy> so now I will try to ssh to the Lan IP and see
[10:20] <Campfire> do i need ssh if i don,t do remoting
[10:21] <Gryllida> Campfire: Maybe not.
[10:21] <Campfire> so i can turn it off
[10:22] <Campfire> i,m still learning term
[10:23] <Onixs> any info about gma3650 being supported now?
[10:24] <Campfire> whats that onix
[10:24] <Campfire> i,m new here
[10:24] <Campfire> oh screen res
[10:25] <Campfire> was this a netspit
[10:25] <DJones> Campfire: No just normal changing users
[10:25] <Campfire> i,m bored can we create a channal to talk about anything
[10:26] <rudolf_> Gryllida, yeah everything is fone now. I ran chkdsk/f from windows.
[10:26] <DJones> !alis | Campfire You can search for channels that have topics you want to discuss using the alis bot,
[10:26] <Gryllida> rudolf_: Ok, nice. Presumably Ubuntu/GParted doesn't complain now?
[10:26] <ArneLurk> I'd like to change my desktop theme.  I'm using 13.04. Is it GTK or Gnome? I know nothing about this atm
[10:26] <Gryllida> Campfire: Yes, ssh should be safe to turn off.
[10:27] <Campfire> ok how do i do in term
[10:27] <Campfire> well the command
[10:27] <rudolf_> Gryllida, yeah no complains now. :)
[10:27] <Gryllida> ArneLurk: Gnome is a desktop environment built using GTK toolkit. See Appearance preferences for builtin themes, or www.gnome-look.org for more.
[10:27] <Campfire> i,ll google it
[10:28] <Campfire> my bad
[10:28] <ArneLurk> Will do, Gryllida !
[10:28] <MonkeyDust> ArneLurk  use gnome-tweak-tool or unity-tweak-tool
[10:28] <Campfire> is ssh a service
[10:28] <Gryllida> Campfire: «sudo service ssh {stop,start,restart}»
[10:28] <MonkeyDust> !themes | ArneLurk
[10:28] <Gryllida> Yes.
[10:28] <Campfire> i need to know all services running
[10:28] <Gryllida> MonkeyDust: Thanks. That's quite more links than the one I had. :)
[10:28] <lroy> hi guys is this the ubuntu chat?
[10:28] <Campfire> then
[10:29] <Gryllida> lroy: Yes.
[10:29] <ArneLurk> I found a workbench 1.2 theme there already, but I migfht want to tweak it or make my own from scratch. Alsom icon sets
[10:29] <lroy> sweet
[10:29] <Campfire> lsof
[10:29] <lroy> ive been having trouble with this graphics card
[10:29] <Gryllida> Campfire: «sudo service --status-all» or a GUI tool, if Gnome has one.
[10:29] <rudolf_> Gryllida, I think the partition was mounted and the laptop wasnt properly shutdown.
[10:29] <lroy> it displays fine in 800x600 resolutions
[10:29] <Gryllida> rudolf_: That could be it.
[10:29] <lroy> i can boot my bios with it
[10:29] <Campfire> ty
[10:29] <lroy> i can run ubuntu live
[10:29] <lroy> and boot into my system
[10:29] <lroy> but then when i install drivers for the card
[10:29] <sp3ck> lroy, nope it's not the ubuntu chat... :P
[10:30] <lroy> it wants to go into an HD resolution on the next startup and hangs at a purple ubuntu loading screen
[10:30] <lroy> and i have tried going into the GNU boot screen and changing the settings to nomodeset
[10:30] <lroy> and still nothing
[10:30] <lroy> @sp3ck
[10:30] <lroy> ?
[10:31] <sp3ck> lroy, "<lroy> hi guys is this the ubuntu chat?"
[10:31] <lroy> lol isnt it?
[10:32] <MonkeyDust> sp3ck  support, not chat
[10:32] <lroy> well i need support
[10:32] <lroy> lol
[10:32] <sp3ck> lroy, anywayz rofl
[10:32] <lroy> why does my graphics card hang on startup
[10:32] <MonkeyDust> sp3ck  wrong person, sorry ;)
[10:32] <sp3ck> lroy, I'm messing with u mate!
[10:32] <lroy> its so weird that it works in lower resolutions
[10:32] <lroy> haha i know
[10:32] <lroy> its all good man
[10:33] <lroy> has anyone seen anything like this?
[10:35] <lroy> is there something else i can try in the GNU menu on startup?
[10:35] <reisio> lroy: to do what?
[10:35] <lroy> idk to get into my system
[10:36] <MonkeyDust> lroy  start from the beginning, what goes wrong
[10:36] <lroy> the graphics card "works", i can boot into my bios, I can run ubuntu live, and i can run the installed ubuntu, but then when i install the driver my system refuses to finish booting, and it just hangs on the purple ubuntu startup screen
[10:37] <lroy> it basically works in all 800x600 resolutions
[10:37] <lroy> and i have tried going into the GNU startup screen pressed "e" and changed the startup settings to nomodeset
[10:37] <lroy> and still nothing
[10:38] <lroy> any ideas?
[10:39] <Gryllida> lroy: How do you "install the driver"?
[10:39] <lroy> i download the latest AMD catalyst driver
[10:39] <lroy> and install it via the command line
[10:39] <lroy> i have a few computers
[10:39] <Gryllida> lroy: Doesn't Ubuntu work out of the box?
[10:39] <lroy> and its just this one card thats giving me trouble
[10:40] <lroy> it does
[10:40] <lroy> but i need the drivers
[10:40] <MonkeyDust> !latest
[10:40] <Gryllida> lroy: Why do you need the drivers?
[10:40] <lroy> so the machine can interact with the graphics card
[10:40] <lroy> and i know its supposed to work
[10:41] <lroy> i have done it with my other computers
[10:41] <lroy> its just this one graphics card doesnt wana go into an
[10:41] <lroy> HD resolution or something
[10:42] <Gryllida> Doesn't Ubuntu already work out of the box enough to interact with the graphics card?
[10:42] <lroy> like it does
[10:42] <sp3ck> lroy, if ubuntu worked why did you installed the drivers?
[10:42] <lroy> but then i can only see it with "lspci"
[10:42] <lroy> like how do i display in HD and control the fans and overclock etc
[10:42] <lroy> i need the AMD drivers for that
[10:42] <Gryllida> Ok. Now I see the problem (somewhat).
[10:42] <MonkeyDust> lroy  need or want?
[10:43] <lroy> need
[10:43] <lroy> they are bitcoin mining rigs
[10:44] <ArneLurk> looks like myunity might be in the universe repos?
[10:44] <Campfire> whats ? mean in service i got - + and ?
[10:45] <MonkeyDust> ArneLurk  better use unity-tweak-tool, it's myunity 'the next generation'
[10:45] <ArneLurk> Thanks, I
[10:46] <ArneLurk> Ok. I also got Gnome tweak tool
[10:47] <MonkeyDust> ArneLurk  and there's also ubuntu-tweak (not in the repos)
[10:47] <benuphoenix> hi
[10:47] <ArneLurk> I got a gtk+ theme in a tar.gz... should I place it anywhere in particular?
[10:48] <MonkeyDust> ArneLurk  in ~/.themes
[10:48] <ArneLurk> unpacked or still tar.gz ?
[10:48] <MonkeyDust> not sure
[10:49]  * benuphoenix is running xubuntu off of an old 8gb class-6 sdhc card. for some reason, he thinks that is cool.
[10:49] <lroy> @monkeydust is there someway for me to boot into like a low-res safe mode?
[10:50] <benuphoenix> oh...this is a support channel...oops...sorry for chatting
[10:50] <MonkeyDust> lroy  there rescue-mode or something... press ESC during boot to get the grub menu
[10:50] <Gryllida> ArneLurk: Tried feeding the .tar.gz to the theme manager?
[10:51] <lroy> are there any other graphics modes/ settings i can try before startup?
[10:51] <Gryllida> Anyone - can tell Campfire what the modern Gnome3 servive manager tools are?
[10:51] <ArneLurk> not yet... I'm still navigating my file structure and unhiding files
[10:51] <Campfire> ty i,m learning term on it
[10:52] <Campfire> taking notes i should know this
[10:54] <ArneLurk> I'm finding a lot of themes folders using search, but the detailed view won't tell me where they are located
[10:55] <Gryllida> ArneLurk: Try feeding it to theme manager first.
[10:56] <Gryllida> ArneLurk: It's "~/.themes".
[10:58] <ss_haze> can I get stabilize option in kdenlive
[10:58] <ss_haze> without trying to install newer repo versions from sunab?
[10:59] <ss_haze> I have ubuntu 12.04 and here is kdenlive 0.8.2.1
[10:59] <m_bEnableHandSwi> Ubuntu 13.04 kernel panicks while disconnecting bluetooth DUN
[10:59] <m_bEnableHandSwi> Any idea why?
[11:00] <ss_haze> whats DUN?
[11:00] <m_bEnableHandSwi> Dial Up Networking
[11:01] <jdoles> How can I tell KDE to open .foo files with the program called foo and .bar files with the program called bar? Both are plain text files.
[11:01] <reisio> jdoles: likely by right-clicking on them in dolphin
[11:01] <ss_haze> I have Galaxy S 1, and I can share internet trought bluetooth with 12.04
[11:01] <ss_haze> but there is no reason to, cause I have cable
[11:01] <m_bEnableHandSwi> With 12.04 and 12.10 it is fine.
[11:01] <m_bEnableHandSwi> I can acceess internet.
[11:02] <h34d3r> someone is american here?
[11:02] <ss_haze> don't use 13.04 then
[11:02] <m_bEnableHandSwi> But problem arises when disconnecting the DUN connection.
[11:02] <ss_haze> or ubuntu-bug this problem
[11:02] <m_bEnableHandSwi> All of a sudden kernel panics.
[11:02] <DJones> h34d3r: There probably are, if you have an ubuntu support question, just ask it in the channel
[11:02] <ss_haze> I am from Latvia, someone uses kdenlive to stabilise video?
[11:02] <m_bEnableHandSwi> I've searched a little and I guess its a kernel bug.
[11:03] <jdoles> reisio, that doesn't work, try it.
[11:03] <m_bEnableHandSwi> Just needed to know if there is any workaround of some sort.
[11:03] <ss_haze> I have 0.8.2.1 version of kdenlive, where there is no button stabilise yet
[11:03] <ss_haze> someone uses kdenlive from repos of kdenlive page or no
[11:03] <ss_haze> ?
[11:03] <reisio> jdoles: how doesn't it work?
[11:06] <Mattias2> I'm running Ubuntu 12.04 and I noticed there is no xterm-256color file in /usr/share/terminfo/x/, but there is a xterm+256color one which does not work. Did I miss installing something?
[11:07] <ss_haze> what does this file give you Mattias2
[11:07] <ss_haze> ?
[11:08] <ArneLurk> Gryllida, >  oh, the ~ means home directory. I have no .themes there so I'll make a foder
[11:09] <wasanzy> Gryllida: I am not able to connect to the VPN
[11:09] <ActionParsnip> ArneLurk: its a handy shortcut, so is $HOME and /home/$USER
[11:09] <ActionParsnip> ArneLurk: same difference
[11:09] <Mattias2> ss_haze: you mean the contents of xterm+x256color?
[11:10] <wasanzy> I wan to get something right, in the server.conf, the IP used was something like 10.x.x.x so is that the IP I should be connecting to instead of the server's local IP?
[11:10] <ss_haze> I mean what did you installed when you missed file I don't know anything about and so on
[11:10] <ArneLurk> looks lioke I need to use the ubuntu tweak tool, not the unity tweak tool
[11:11] <Mattias2> ss_haze: I just want to enable $TERM to xterm-256color, but since the file does not exist I can't do that.. this file should be there from the beginning, I don't understand how it can be gone
[11:11] <ss_haze> anybody knows how to make ssh server on other pc
[11:12] <ss_haze> it's for terminal programm?
[11:12] <ss_haze> it's gone cause you or ghosts deleted it
[11:14] <Kartagis> ss_haze: sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[11:14] <ss_haze> it will give gui also?
[11:15] <Kartagis> no
[11:15] <ss_haze> :<
[11:15] <Kartagis> for gui, use software center
[11:16] <ss_haze> ssh server on the same pc where apache is on is safe I guess
[11:16] <BluesKaj> Hey all
[11:17] <Ogham> Hi all, how can I full screen a window accross multiple desktops/monitors in unity?
[11:18] <wheatthin> ss_haze, if you want an ssh gui for windows to communicate to your ssh server then I'd suggest winscp
[11:18] <ss_haze> what makes you guess I have windows
[11:18] <ss_haze> I don't even dualboot
[11:18] <ss_haze> but tnx
[11:18] <wheatthin> k
[11:19] <wheatthin> you can also use sshfs and use nautilus to connect
[11:19] <wheatthin> for file transfers
[11:23] <wasanzy> Hello in my server.conf of the openvpn configuration, I have this server 10.8.0.0 255.255.255.0 so am I supposed to connect to the 10.8.0.1 from the client?
[11:24] <wheatthin> umm your server is supposed to be 10.8.0.1, that's your network address is 10.8.0.0
[11:25] <wasanzy> my server is 192.168.1.100 that is the local IP
[11:25] <wheatthin> if that's so, then your server cannot communicate to 10.8.0.1
[11:26] <wheatthin> or any of the sort
[11:26] <wheatthin> unless you have two nics
[11:26] <wasanzy> then should I change the server.conf to reflect the 192.168.1.100
[11:26] <wheatthin> yup
[11:26] <Ogham> I can't find any way to full screen a window across a dual monitor unity desktop with out painfully dragging it about manually.. any suggestions?
[11:27] <wasanzy> so am going to have something like server 192.168.0.0 255.255.255.0?
[11:27] <wheatthin> yup
[11:28] <wheatthin> except that's still nework address
[11:28] <wheatthin> it's 192.168.1.0
[11:28] <wasanzy> oh ok
[11:28] <wheatthin> for network address
[11:28] <wheatthin> 192.168.1.1 for the real addy
[11:28] <wasanzy> I will use 192.168.1.100 then since that is the exact server local IP
[11:29] <wheatthin> there ya go
[11:29] <wasanzy> thank you, will get back

[11:36] <kalakj> wheatthin:   i mean what does spamming mean and what does manually set your network mean
[11:37] <wheatthin> asking multiple times=spam
[11:37] <wheatthin> manually setting your network, I mean static assigning network address and route
[11:37] <kalakj> wheatthin: oh really, if some body asks multiple time for help, does it mean, he/she is spamming

[11:48] <ActionParsnip> kalakj: can you ping 8.8.8.8?
[11:48] <wheatthin> ahh
[11:49] <kalakj> ActionParsnip: ping is working
[11:50] <wheatthin> cat /etc/resolv.conf
[11:50] <railsraider> can someone help with upstart
[11:51] <ActionParsnip> kalakj: echo "nameserver 8.8.8.8" | sudo tee /etc/resolv.conf > /dev/null
[11:51] <railsraider> i have a a runnig job that when i do reload it tells me not running
[11:51] <ActionParsnip> kalakj: then try the web
[11:51] <kalakj> wheatthin: echo "nameserver 8.8.8.8" | sudo tee /etc/resolv.conf > /dev/null
[11:51] <ActionParsnip> kalakj: does it work ok?
[11:51] <kalakj> OH SORRY

[11:52] <ActionParsnip> kalakj: echo "nameserver 8.8.8.8" | sudo tee -a /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/head > /dev/null       will then make it stick (if it works) =D
[11:53] <ActionParsnip> kalakj: you have a route to the outside world so the next thing to check is DNS
[11:53] <Edijus> Hello. Is there possible to make Ubuntu LiveCD to auto execute web browser on the boot-up?
[11:53] <wheatthin> not that I know of Edijus, the livecd is preconfigured
[11:54] <Mattias_> I just noticed a file named "-1" but when I try to mv -1 or mv "-1" or even vim "-1" or anything, everything thinks it's an option and not a file.. how can I get rid of this file? or maybe check what's in it?
[11:54] <Edijus> wheatthin: There should be a way...
[11:54] <ActionParsnip> Edijus: if you use a USB instead with a persistant storage, you can add the autostart as you would in an installed OS
[11:54] <nightcrow> hiya
[11:54] <wasanzy> am getting this error when starting up the openvpn
[11:54] <nightcrow> does anyone know how to set up an ftp proxy?
[11:54] <ActionParsnip> Mattias_: you need to escape the character in the filename
[11:54] <wasanzy> Options error: --server directive network/netmask combination is invalid
[11:54] <nightcrow> can someone help me to set one up please
[11:54] <wasanzy> any help?
[11:54] <Edijus> ActionParsnip: Sadly, USB storage is not a solution. I don't want anything to be stored anywhere except ramdisk.
[11:55] <Mattias_> ActionParsnip: if I escape with \-1 it still thinks it's a flag
[11:55] <Mattias_> ActionParsnip: really strange :/
[11:55] <nightcrow> wasanzy: seems like you are using the wrong IP in accordance with your netmask
[11:55] <ActionParsnip> nightcrow: export ftp_proxy="http......."
[11:55] <nightcrow> ActionParsnip: whats that?
[11:55] <nightcrow> wasanzy: show me your network config
[11:55] <ActionParsnip> nightcrow: a bash command, to set a variable which is used to identify the proxy to use for ftp
[11:56] <wasanzy> nightcrow: this is what I have in the conf: server 192.168.1.100 255.255.255.0
[11:56] <bgardner> Mattias_: Have you tried quoting it?
[11:56] <ActionParsnip> Edijus: then you will need to manually remaster the ISO, make the changes then receate the new ISO file
[11:56] <metaphysician> Mattias_: vim ./-1
[11:56] <Mattias_> bgardner: using "" gives me the same thing, all commands thinks it is a flag
[11:56] <Edijus> ActionParsnip: Any tutorial how to do so?
[11:56] <Mattias_> metaphysician: testing :)
[11:56] <ActionParsnip> Edijus: millions
[11:56] <Mattias_> metaphysician: that works!
[11:57] <Mattias_> Thanks
[11:57] <wasanzy> any idea? nightcrow
[11:57] <nightcrow> ActionParsnip: i want to set up a proxy - basically, I have a server that can connect to an FTP server and then another server located remotely (in another subnet) that I want to be able to also connect to the server. so basically A > connects to > FTP. B > connects to > A. I want B > to connect to FTP via A.
[11:58] <nightcrow> wasanzy: looks fine to me buddy
[11:58] <nightcrow> show me your error again
[11:58] <Edijus> ActionParsnip: Could you provide me some URL, please?
[11:58] <Jesus> Hello all.
[11:58] <Jesus> I am Jesus.
[11:58] <wasanzy> Options error: --server directive network/netmask combination is invalid
[11:58] <ActionParsnip> Edijus: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=make+your+own+ubuntu+based+OS
[11:58] <Jesus> I would like help as my linux system does not work with WEP.
[11:59] <Guest41205> Anybody here?
[11:59] <ActionParsnip> nightcrow: oh, then you can use squid
[11:59] <ActionParsnip> Guest42061: many
[11:59] <dajesius> Hello.
[11:59] <dajesius> ActionParsnip: Hello sir, I would like a moment of your time.
[11:59] <nightcrow> ActionParsnip: how?
[11:59] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: sup
[12:00] <dajesius> and you, nightcrow; I would like a moment of your precious time too.
[12:00] <dajesius> so, yes.
[12:00] <dajesius> I use Ubuntu, alright.
[12:00] <ActionParsnip> nightcrow: look online, lots of squid guides. I set mine up using a youtube video
[12:00] <dajesius> and.
[12:00] <dajesius> I use wicd.
[12:00] <dajesius> so, when I connect to non-encrypted wifi networks
[12:00] <KevDi> could someone tell me whats wrong with this if statement? if [[ "$i" == "DSC_0076.jpg" || "$i" == "DSC_0078.jpg"]] then echo "Find" fi? if i use this if statement inside my script it says syntaxerror unexpected word then'
[12:00] <dajesius> everythin' is fine
[12:00] <dajesius> KevDi, please hold on.
[12:00] <dajesius> so
[12:00] <nightcrow> dajesius: can i help you?
[12:00] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: try hitting ENTER less, it scrolls he channel less and is easier to follow
[12:00] <dajesius> it works with non-encrypted
[12:00] <dajesius> alright, actionparsnip. i'll follow your path to glory
[12:00] <dajesius> so
[12:01] <wasanzy> nightcrow: have you seen it?
[12:01] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: what wifi chip do you use?
[12:01] <Ben64> dajesius: don't tell people to hold on either, they have just as much of a right to ask questions as you
[12:01] <nightcrow> ActionParsnip: does squid run on server A or server B?
[12:01] <wasanzy> Options error: --server directive network/netmask combination is invalid
[12:01] <nightcrow> wasanzy: im not sure, your IP/netmask look find
[12:01] <nightcrow> fine
[12:01] <ActionParsnip> nightcrow: wherever you want, you can configure quid to allow connections from external systems if you want
[12:02] <dajesius> nightcrow & ActionParsnip & wasanzy & Ben64: I use Ubuntu and WICD, when I try to connect to non-encrypted wifi networks, it works, and when I try to connect to WPA1/WPA2 encrypted networks, it works too, but when I try to connect to WEP-wifi servers, it gives me "error obtaining ip"
[12:02] <ActionParsnip> nightcrow: can make the web faster due to caching :)
[12:02] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: which wifi chip are you using?
[12:02] <dajesius> ActionParsnip, how can I check that? any command to know what wifi chip I use?
[12:02] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: sudo lshw -C network     will tell you
[12:03] <nightcrow> ActionParsnip: but Im not sure how to use it as a proxy
[12:03] <ActionParsnip> nightcrow: guides online will tell you, there is also #squid
[12:03] <ActionParsnip> nightcrow: nobody is born knowing.....
[12:03] <nightcrow> true :)
[12:03] <dajesius> the internet isn't secure.
[12:03] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: we just need the product line of the wireless
[12:03] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: it can be in places
[12:04] <dajesius> alright actionparsnip, i'll paste it to paste.ubuntu.com to avoid flood.
[12:04] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: its one line, so there will be no flood
[12:04] <dajesius> http://paste.ubuntu.com/5780237/
[12:05] <rschmitty> Hello, I'm having troubles with a fresh ubuntu 12.04 server install and unattended-upgrades in that email results come as a .dat file:  http://paste.ubuntu.com/5780235/
[12:05] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: then its a AR9285 .no need for the pastebin :)
[12:06] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: what is the output of:  cat /etc/issue
[12:06] <dajesius> ActionParsnip, any idea how I can make WICD connect to WEP-encrypted networks?
[12:06] <dajesius> alright wait
[12:06] <auronandace> !wep | dajesius
[12:06] <dajesius> Ubuntu 10.4
[12:06] <dajesius> auronandace, but how can I connect to it bro.
[12:06] <dajesius> that's the question.
[12:06] <dajesius> I know it's shitty, but how can I connect to it.
[12:07] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: what ois the output of:  uname -a
[12:07] <Ben64> dajesius: if you're on 10.04, you need to upgrade. and watch the language in here
[12:07] <dajesius> ActionParsnip, mind if I share /var/log/wicd/wicd.log
[12:07] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: go for it
[12:07] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: what is the output of:  uname -a
[12:08] <dajesius> Linux juicebox 3.2.6 #1 SMP Fri Feb 17 10:40:05 EST 2012 i686 GNU/Linux - I was messing around my kernel a few weeks ago.
[12:08] <dajesius> changing it and stuff.
[12:08] <dajesius> but I don't think this caused the wicd problem.
[12:08] <nightcrow> ActionParsnip: squid3 supports FTP?
[12:08] <dajesius> nightcrow: yes.
[12:09] <ActionParsnip> nightcrow: I use it here, so yes
[12:09] <Ben64> dajesius: what is the output of:     lsb_release -r
[12:09] <dajesius> Release:	10.04
[12:09] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: is this a desktop OS? with mouse pointers and Firefox browser?
[12:09] <dajesius> actionparsnip: yes.
[12:09] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: then it is EOL, Lucid is no longer suported on the desktop
[12:10] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: I suggest you upgrade to Precise which is LTS and supported til April 2017
[12:10] <dajesius> but how in the world can I connect to WEP-networks.
[12:10] <dajesius> any ideas?
[12:10] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: your install isn't supported here
[12:10] <dajesius> also, this is a dhcp problem.
[12:10] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: its like installing WIndows 98 then calling Microsoft for suport
[12:10] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: they wont support you as the OS is dead
[12:11] <dajesius> support*
[12:11] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: same with Lucid on the desktop
[12:11] <dajesius> Windows*
[12:11] <dajesius> aw man
[12:11] <dajesius> but I need help.
[12:11] <Ben64> then upgrade to 12.04
[12:11] <auronandace> dajesius: that doesn't change the support rules
[12:11] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: upgrade to Precise which you can do in one jump online, or clean install Precise from CD / USB and you will be supported
[12:11] <Ben64> not to mention you installed a non standard kernel
[12:11] <Ben64> thats double unsupported here
[12:12] <dajesius> :(
[12:12] <dajesius> im gonna walk away
[12:12] <dajesius> with a sad face
[12:12] <JustSomeGuy> hi how can i remove a "rogue" block device? i have the device /dev/xvdf which was removed from the machine but its still listed and now uses 100% of the cpu
[12:12] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: if you dislike Unity shell, install Xubuntu 12.04
[12:12] <dajesius> i shall install xubuntu then
[12:12] <dajesius> i hate unity shell
[12:12] <ActionParsnip> JustSomeGuy: did you use the safe removal feature in your OS before removing it?
[12:13] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: Unity ironically is not for everyone :)
[12:13] <JustSomeGuy> ActionParsnip, (its a server no gui) i unmounted the filesystem
[12:13] <ActionParsnip> JustSomeGuy: but did you eject the device before pulling it?
[12:13] <dajesius> ActionParsnip, are you aware of PERF_EVENT?
[12:13] <JustSomeGuy> ActionParsnip, how do i eject a the device from cli?
[12:13] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: no idea, sorry
[12:14] <dajesius> ActionParsnip, are you aware that Ubuntu 11.x to 12.x are rootable?
[12:14] <ActionParsnip> JustSomeGuy: sudo eject /dev/sga     for example
[12:14] <dajesius> by rootable I mean, privillege-escalation vulnerability.
[12:14] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: yes, but its not advised r necessary
[12:14] <dajesius> linux is slowly becoming windows
[12:14] <dajesius> we all have to admit
[12:14] <dajesius> windows= viruses
[12:14] <JustSomeGuy> dajesius, no ubuntu is slowly becoming windows...
[12:14] <JustSomeGuy> dajesius, ubuntu != linux
[12:14] <dajesius> linux= backdoors/exploits
[12:14] <JustSomeGuy> uh sry
[12:15] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: please take it elsewhere, this is support
[12:15] <JustSomeGuy> ActionParsnip, eject /dev/xvdf > not an sg device, or old sg driver, eject: unable to eject, last error: Invalid argument
[12:15] <dajesius> JustSomeGuy, hackers aren't focused on windows anymore
[12:15] <auronandace> dajesius: can you go talk nonsense elsewhere, this channel is for support
[12:15] <DJones> !ot | dajesius
[12:15] <dajesius> the time when viruses for windows were made is gone
[12:15] <dajesius> now it's time for linux
[12:15] <ActionParsnip> JustSomeGuy: sudo fdisk -l   does it show?
[12:15] <JustSomeGuy> uch
[12:15] <dajesius> to get virusified.
[12:15] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: again, take it elsewhere please
[12:16] <dajesius> actionparsnip, does Ubuntu support xfce?
[12:16] <JustSomeGuy> ActionParsnip, fdisk -l hangs :D i see the device in iostat though
[12:16] <auronandace> !xubuntu | dajesius
[12:16] <JustSomeGuy> ActionParsnip, with 100% util
[12:16] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: yes the xfce based release is just as supported as the main gnome based ubuntu release
[12:17] <Guest7683> exit
[12:17] <dajesius> !lubuntu
[12:17] <ActionParsnip> JustSomeGuy: are there PIDs accessing it in:   lsof
[12:17] <dajesius> !wicd
[12:17] <ActionParsnip> dajesius: lubuntu 12.04 is not LTS (sadly)
[12:17] <auronandace> !msgthebot | dajesius
[12:17] <dajesius> ActionParsnip: ouch!
[12:17] <JustSomeGuy> ActionParsnip, ah yeah it does thx
[12:17] <Ycarene> How do I forcibly remove a package with circular dependencies?
[12:17] <dajesius> is ubottu real or something
[12:17] <wheatthin> wicd isn't no more in current releases
[12:18] <DJones> !bot | dajesius
[12:18] <ActionParsnip> !info wicd raring
[12:18] <ActionParsnip> !info wicd saucy
[12:18] <wheatthin> hmm
[12:18] <ActionParsnip> wheatthin: really?
[12:18] <BluesKaj> wheatthin, is there any alternative to NM , then ?
[12:18] <JustSomeGuy> ActionParsnip, ok i killed the accessing processes but still i get 100% util in iostat
[12:18] <wheatthin> yup I suppose
[12:20] <Ycarene> !info circular dependency
[12:21] <ActionParsnip> wheatthin: wherever you read that wicd is not in newer releases, I suggest you send them the text I made ubottu output. They are dead wrong
[12:21] <dajesius> ActionParsnip & wheattin & BluesKaj & JustSomeGuy & Ben64 & Ycarene: Why doesnt “tail” work to truncate log files?
[12:21] <dajesius> I'm trying to manage my log file size using a cron script. I basically want to delete all but the last 2000 lines of the log file every night. I'm trying to run this command, but it seems to be emptying the entire file instead of doing what I want:
[12:21] <dajesius> tail -2000 logfile.txt > logfile.txt
[12:21] <dajesius> Does anyone know why this isn't working and/or how to accomplish what I want? :)
[12:21] <jpds> dajesius: 'tail -n 2000' is what you want.
[12:21] <Ycarene> I have something installed that consists of three packages, each package is dependent on the next and the first on the last, so it won't let me un-install any of them because the other on the one I want to remove.
[12:22] <dajesius> jpds, thanks!
[12:22] <dajesius> that worked.
[12:22] <Ben64> Ycarene: uninstall all 3 at once?
[12:22] <dajesius> Ben64, ubuntu vs opensuse
[12:22] <dajesius> !opensuse
[12:22] <Ycarene> ben64 - you know, I thought of it right before you said it.  :P
[12:23] <jpds> dajesius: Not yet.
[12:23] <jpds> dajesius: Not here*
[12:25] <JustSomeGuy> ok its time for a restart for the server i guess
[12:25] <JustSomeGuy> damn you amazon
[12:25] <rschmitty> Anyone experienced with unattended-upgrades? I'm having troubles with a fresh ubuntu 12.04 server install and unattended-upgrades in that email results come as a .dat file rather than text in the body:  http://paste.ubuntu.com/5780235/
[12:26] <nightcrow> does wget support socks proxy?
[12:26] <ArneLurk> I'm going to try using Metacity to fiddle with themes on my 13.04 install. Will it work?
[12:26] <dajesius> nightcrow: no.
[12:28] <Ben65> nightcrow: google says yes
[12:33] <chunkyhead> how to delete my encrypted swap and then recover it?
[12:33] <regorianer> there was a chan for open source software, but #opensource is nealry empty, which one was it ?
[12:35] <marahin> Guys, what is the difference between linux-generic and linux-server?
[12:35] <dajesius> marahin, linux-generic sucks.
[12:36] <dajesius> and linux-server doesn't.
[12:36] <pianogmx> where do I go on ubuntu to set up my wiki page?
[12:36] <marahin> dajesius, well, *coughs*.
[12:36] <dajesius> marahin, the world spins on and on.
[12:37] <dajesius> but linux-generic doesn't.
[12:37] <dajesius> it's still there, stuck in the lonely islands of win32.
[12:37] <marahin> hahahah
[12:37] <marahin> mokay ;P
[12:39] <dajesius> chr0n1k, let's tango down.
[12:39] <chunkyhead> how to delete my encrypted swap and then recover it?
[12:39] <dajesius> chunkyhead, chuck em'.
[12:39] <ArneLurk> oops, I did a metacity --replace by mistake, what's the default thingy to replace back to?
[12:40] <chunkyhead> dajesius, what do u mean
[12:40] <rudolf_> Hi
[12:40] <rudolf_> Does anyone here use aria2?
[12:40] <dajesius> ArneLurk, configure your PERF_EVENT configuration files and set memset()'s swap-area to 52.
[12:40] <dajesius> as that is default.
[12:40] <dajesius> rudolf_: only fans of bill gates use aria2
[12:40] <nightcrow> damn it :(
[12:40] <dajesius> are you a fan of bill gates, aria2?
[12:40] <nightcrow> wget doesnt support a socks proxy
[12:40] <nightcrow> crap
[12:40] <dajesius> nightcrow; damn the bible.
[12:40] <nightcrow> lol
[12:41] <chunkyhead> dajesius, the problem is when is start my computer it takes time and then tells me that swap could not be loaded or something. press s to skin and something else to do manual stuff.
[12:41] <rudolf_> dajesius, why so? It is a download utility.
[12:41] <dajesius> rudolf_, the world, is like a box of chocolates, and aria2 is like a piece of chicken, so.
[12:41] <dajesius> and chicken isn't healthy, aria2.
[12:41] <rudolf_> nightcrow, is wget too command line initiated?
[12:41] <dajesius> it's bad for you.
[12:42] <rudolf_> dajesius, I am not aria2 :|
[12:42] <dajesius> nightcrow; ssh-tunnelling all the way, only newbies use sock-proxies.
[12:42] <dajesius> LOL.
[12:42] <dajesius> rudolf_, aria2 is a download utility ya dumbhead.
[12:42] <chunkyhead> how to switch swap on and off?
[12:42] <rudolf_> dajesius, I need some help with its commands. Can you please help?
[12:42] <acerimmer> !swap|chunkyhead,
[12:42] <wheatthin> chunkyhead, swapon swapoff
[12:42] <wheatthin> :P
[12:42] <dajesius> I sure can, what do you need help with?
[12:43] <dajesius> wheattin, thanks for helping out chunkyhead, I thought he was gonna unleash his gloryness over this channel.
[12:44] <rudolf_> dajesius, I am unable to use its options. Like -j is used to set max number of parallel downloads and its usage is "-j, --max-concurrent-downloads=N" but it always gives some syntax error when i use it.
[12:45] <rudolf_> Can you please tell me how to correctly use the option?
[12:45] <nightcrow> is there an alternative to wget for ftp that can support socks
[12:45] <nightcrow> ?
[12:45] <crossRT> Hi guys, anyone know is that 13.04 disable scroll on launch bar? or is it a bug?
[12:46] <wheatthin> nightcrow, just use proxychains with wget
[12:46] <nightcrow> im not familiar with that
[12:46] <wheatthin> !proxychains
[12:47] <wheatthin> hmm
[12:47] <chunkyhead> dajesius, is it so difficult for u to help someone new?
[12:48] <rudolf_> dajesius, I mean I just want to know how to use that option? The usage in the man pages seems a little weird and all are giving some errors.
[12:49] <pianogmx> hi i would like to contribute to ubuntu but I am trying to figure out how to go about doing that.  i found that there is no longer a mentor program.  can someone help me out?
[12:49] <acerimmer> !contribute|pianogmx,
[12:50] <rudolf_> Anyone?
[12:51] <rudolf_> Can anyone tell what am I doing wrong at the terminal?
[12:52] <pianogmx> acerimmer, yes I read this but I am stuck on trying to learn how to do bug fixes and all that stuff or do something software related.  hence I was looking for a mentor but I saw that "program is closed" thing
[12:53] <ArneLurk> Apparently unity --replace gave me back the 13.04 look. I have no idea what I
[12:53] <acerimmer> pianogmx, might I suggest you attempt to network locally ... your linux/ubuntu user group would likely welcome your participation.
[12:53] <vedic> Hi, my parents are using a laptop that is now 3 years old. With windows vista, it is running too slow now. I was thinking to install Ubuntu 12.04 desktop on it but was worried would he be able to use it as he is comfortable with windows. Any suggestions, how I can make the Ubuntu 12.04 (is 13.04 worthier for this task?) appear more like windows?
[12:53] <ghking> help me please! My stardict always quit automaticly when I scan or input anyword. I have try start it in terminal, it shows "Segmentation fault" when it dead.
[12:54] <gordonjcp> vedic: making it "appear like" Windows won't make it work like Windows
[12:54] <bazhang> !themes | vedic
[12:54] <gordonjcp> vedic: that'll only make things more confusing
[12:54] <acerimmer> vedic, xubuntu and lubuntu are optimized for older/lower spec machines.
[12:55] <rschmitty> gordonjcp: most parental units just want to click and icon and do something, they don't care how it works as much as where are the icons :P
[12:55] <gordonjcp> rschmitty: exactly
[12:55] <rudolf_> What do I do when a new version of ubuntu is released? Do I need to download the complete iso and reinstall everything?
[12:55] <gordonjcp> rschmitty: it took my mum roughly 10 seconds to get used to Unity
[12:55] <bazhang> ghking, this is a debian install?
[12:56] <rudolf_> bazhang, you use aria2c right? Can you help me with setting the options?
[12:56] <rschmitty> good point, unity is probably better for older folks, nice big icons no "start menu"
[12:57] <bazhang> rudolf_, never used it, no
[12:57] <acerimmer> rudolf_, 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. :|
[12:58] <bazhang> acerimmer, I think you mean rschmitty
[12:58] <acerimmer> rudolf_ oh and "download" means torrent.  md5sum check is assumed.
[12:58] <acerimmer> bazhang, eeks.  too late.
[12:58] <rudolf_> acrimmer, so that means with every new version we need to reinstall all the softwares?
[12:58] <vedic> rschmitty: correct
[12:59] <bazhang> ghking, Please do Not crosspost your debian questions here, thats for #debian alone
[12:59] <vedic> bazhang: Thanks
[12:59] <acerimmer> rudolf_, LTS is supported for 3 years on the desktop.  non-lts are not.  reinstalling every 2 - 3 years seems reasonable to me ...
[12:59] <mjuszczak> I need a jre for Apache Directory Studio.  What's the recommended one for ubuntu?
[13:00] <bazhang> !java | mjuszczak
[13:01] <bazhang> which one does apache directory studio demand mjuszczak ; see the links above
, oh, sorry! but I think ubuntu is not much different form debian.
[13:01] <mjuszczak> perfect
[13:01] <mjuszczak>  thank you
[13:01] <bazhang> :|
[13:02] <pianogmx> acerimmer, where would i find a group online that can take me into a group project where I can learn about software development with someone?
[13:02] <pianogmx> acerimmer, like a linux channel...
[13:02] <acerimmer> pianogmx, ##linux  ?
[13:03] <bazhang> pianogmx, why not join #ubuntu-bugs , #ubuntu-packaging , #ubuntu-meeting , and #ubuntu-devel and silently watch what happens there
[13:03] <acerimmer> bazhang, excellent suggestion
[13:03] <rudolf_> acerimmer, what is the difference between LTS and UBUNTU desktop?
[13:03] <wheatthin> LTS stands for long term support
[13:03] <bazhang> rudolf_, one has five years support the most recent only NINE months
[13:03] <bazhang> rudolf_, LTS = five years
[13:03] <randomgry> rudolf_: 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.
[13:04] <acerimmer> rudolf_, 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?
[13:05] <acerimmer> rudolf_, 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] <bazhang> rudolf_, thats beyond the knowledge or scope of this channel, (the new shorter nine month support cycle)
[13:05] <acerimmer> rudolf_, consider the non-LTS to be bleeding edge test version ...
[13:06] <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?
[13:07] <rudolf_> Am i right acerimmer ?
[13:07] <acerimmer> rudolf_, formulating my response ...
[13:07] <rudolf_> Just telling you what I understood from your response. :)
[13:08] <rudolf_> ok thanks :)
[13:09] <acerimmer> rudolf_, 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] <acerimmer> gotta go.  coffee shop is closed.
[13:09] <rudolf_> hmm...got it
[13:14] <Moonlightning> So I have a headless home server with FDE, and I want to be able to reboot it remotely, without having to find a keyboard and type in the passphrase.
[13:14] <gordonjcp> Moonlightning: doesn't that kind of negate the usefulness of FDE?
[13:15] <Moonlightning> Seems to me that it shouldn't, if it's done right.
[13:16] <Yapple> hey guys. just installed XBMCbuntu onto an old DELL inspiron 1525 (core 2 duo, intel GMA graphics). resolution 1280x800 (on the laptop's display), but when i switch to 1920x1080, the TV only shows 1/4 of it
[13:16] <ActionParsnip> Moonlightning: if you add the shutdown command in sudoers to not need password, you can then run:   ssh username@server "sudo shutdown -r now"
[13:17] <Yapple> in my case, the laptop only shows the bottom left of the 1920x1080, and the TV mirrors this (but on the top right of itself)
[13:18] <rudolf_> Can applications access internet too if run on wine?
[13:18] <Moonlightning> the encryption passphrase *
[13:18] <Pici> rudolf_: yes
[13:19] <dosequis> quick question here - do user space device drivers override the default behavior of a given device? Or do they run in parallel?
[13:21] <stevenm> Hey why is package 'acpi-support' not installed with ubuntu server but is with ubuntu and xubuntu - is it more of a desktop thing?
[13:22] <stevenm> I thought acpi was just "pc's"  - not specific to just non-servers
[13:22] <arming> hi all
[13:22] <bgardner> stevenm: acpi-support is oriented around suspend/resume/hibernate, lid closure, etc.  Things that servers don't want to be doing.
[13:23] <ActionParsnip> !info acpi-support
[13:23] <stevenm> bgamari, i thought it also did shutdown?
[13:23] <ActionParsnip> stevenm: you could report a bug if you suspect one
[13:23] <arming> is there a glibc-static lib on ubuntu?
[13:23] <stevenm> bgardner, i guess what i'm asking is - if i have a physical server without 'acpi-support' installed... if i push the power button once - will it begin to shut down?
[13:25] <bgardner> stevenm: I don't know.  If I were you, I would test that in a controlled environment with an idle server.
[13:34] <aguitel> what twitter client is working under ubuntu ?
[13:34] <AaronMT> 'Friends', although it's quite bad
[13:34] <adamk_> firefox :-)
[13:34] <ActionParsnip> aguitel: polly
[13:34] <aguitel> ActionParsnip, thanks
[13:36] <ActionParsnip> aguitel: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:conscioususer/polly-daily; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install polly
[13:36] <aguitel> ActionParsnip, ok
[13:40] <DJones> aguitel: Friends works for me
[13:41] <DJones> ActionParsnip: Is polly working for you? I'm using the same ppa but it refuses to connect for me, keeps giving a 410 error
[13:42] <DJones> ActionParsnip: Never mind on that, its just connected for the first time in a week
[13:42] <Orion78> Hi, I use Ubuntu 13.10, today I made an upgrade after something like 3 weeks (or mabye more) of no-upgrade period. After reboot I noticed that my network interface names are no longer renamed according to /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules. Anybody knows what can be the problem here?
[13:43] <BluesKaj> Orion78, best to ask in #ubuntu+1
[13:43] <DJones> Orion78: Support for 13.10 is currently in #ubuntu+1 until the final release
[13:44] <Orion78> BluesKaj, DJones: Thank you!
[13:47] <aguitel> DJones, how instal it ?
[13:54] <rschmitty> how could i find who provides a package?
[13:54] <somsip> rschmitty: !find {app}
[13:54] <somsip> rschmitty: or do you mean, who maintanis it?
[13:55] <rschmitty> ya, maintainer so i can see if they have bug tracking or such
[13:55] <rschmitty> !find unattended-upgrades
[13:55] <somsip> rschmitty: http://packages.ubuntu.com/
[13:55] <Pici> !bugs
[13:56] <rschmitty> thanks
[13:56] <ActionParsnip> DJones: i dont use a twitter client, I just use the web ui. I dont care about twitter enough to need an app
[14:09] <MonkeyDust> i have never used twitter or facebook
[14:13] <nanyaks_> need to check the all connections to my system...any ideas?
[14:13] <MonkeyDust> nanyaks_  "all connections to my system" is a bit vague
[14:13] <Moonlightning> nanyaks_: netstat maybe?
[14:14] <nanyaks_> I just made a bluetooth connection to my system and i dont know how i can monitor it from my system terminal
[14:15] <ammini> hciconfig ?
[14:17] <Mage_Dude> I'm trying to use boot repair to fix a VirtualBox image. I've run boot repair and have the system info. A basic repair didn't work because it said I needed to enable the apt repository that contains grub2. The problem is that the universe repositories are enabled. Not sure what to do.
[14:17] <spidernik84> hey there. Anyone who has a system76 laptop? Any good/bad experiences?
[14:17] <MonkeyDust> spidernik84  ask in #ubuntu-offtopic
[14:18] <ActionParsnip> Mage_Dude: you can chroot from liveCD, probably easir
[14:18] <spidernik84> MonkeyDust, thanks. Wasn't aware it existed. Good to know!
[14:19] <Mage_Dude> ActionParsnip: I've gotten to a terminal from the livecd, but it keeps wanting to repartition everything and wipe the data.
[14:21] <ActionParsnip> Mage_Dude: not if you chroot
[14:23] <Mage_Dude> ActionParsnip: Which would be the 'rescue a broken system' option right?
[14:23] <ActionParsnip> Mage_Dude: omgubuntu has a great how o called: sticking it to grub
[14:23] <ActionParsnip> Mage_Dude: no, it's not an 'option' its a series of commands, your terminal will then be acting on the installed OS
[14:24] <ActionParsnip> Mage_Dude: and you can run all sorts of commands and manipulate grub and so forth
[14:25] <urbanslug> hey are any of you guys interested in open GL games?  I want to learn but I'm in need of some advise.
[14:26] <Mage_Dude> ActionParsnip: Those require the desktop version of the livecd don't they?
[14:27] <ActionParsnip> Mage_Dude: not specifically, you can do it in another TTY on the server install CD
[14:38] <folorn> could anyone help me with a small problem : im trying to find the file path to gringotss if i apt-get installed it
[14:39] <folorn> so i can edit the config file???
[14:39] <folorn> or patch it i should say
[14:40] <anonymous> #jin
[14:40] <anonymous> #join jin
[14:40] <anonymous> join jin
[14:46] <MathCubes> Can anyone help me?
[14:46] <DJones> MathCubes: You need to ask your question first
[14:46] <MathCubes> I need to get viedos divers for my laptop.
[14:46] <MathCubes> http://www.dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/04/Product/inspiron-17r-n7110
[14:46] <MathCubes> here I need the Linux Versions
[14:47] <MathCubes> I got the intel one on here
[14:48] <MathCubes> @DJones Can you help me with that?
[14:49] <adamk_> MathCubes: Is X currently running?
[14:49] <MathCubes> yes
[14:49] <adamk_> Pastebin your current /var/log/Xorg.0.log file.
[14:49] <MathCubes> humm.
[14:50] <MathCubes> what with /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[14:50] <adamk_> Install pastebinit and run 'pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log'
[14:51] <JoeDM> MathCube do you know which video chipset is in your laptop? Dell have 6 listed
[14:51] <MathCubes> humm
[14:51] <adamk_> Which is why I'm asking for the Xorg log file.
[14:51] <MathCubes> Intel® Sandybridge Mobile
[14:51] <JoeDM> Its either going to be nVidia or intel. If its nVidia they usually have drivers on their website
[14:51] <MathCubes> Intel® Core™ i5-2430M CPU @ 2.40GHz × 4
[14:51] <adamk_> I'd like to see what GPU is involved (or GPUs) and what problem you're trying to fix here.
[14:52] <Mage_Dude> If  have a drive mounted that contains the grub files, can I just install grub onto that?
[14:52] <MathCubes> No
[14:52] <Mage_Dude> Crappy.
[14:53] <JoeDM> I install grub to the MBR of the same drive with grub files
[14:53] <MathCubes> Yes I have a 32 gb sd card but It have all of my stuff on it.
[14:54] <val___> hello
[14:54] <ZestyLemon> hey
[14:54] <Mage_Dude> JoeDM: It's a server install so AFAIK there's a separate sda partition that contains the grub files
[14:54] <ZestyLemon> sorry I'm on Windows 95
[14:54] <crystal77> I cannot figure out how to compress an archive. tar -czfv filename.tar.gz directory/ gives a "Cannot stat: No such file or directory". What gives?
[14:55] <ActionParsnip> crystal77: try using the absolute path of the folder to compress
[14:55] <MathCubes> HERE: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5780703/
[14:55] <mbeierl> crystal77, you're not on a read-only filesystem are you?
[14:55] <MathCubes> !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[14:56] <crystal77> Nope, same thing. "tar: wp-content.tar.gz: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: Removing leading `/' from member names tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors"
[14:56] <saiarcot895> crystal77: shouldn't the f switch go at the end?
[14:56] <adamk_> MathCubes: So what makes you think you need to install any extra drivers?
[14:56] <adamk_> MathCubes: You are correctly using the open source intel driver...
[14:56] <MathCubes> More are listed
[14:56] <saiarcot895> tar -czvf filename.tar.gz dirs
[14:56] <crystal77> Woah, what? If I do "tar -cvzf wp-content.tar.gz" instead, it works. I guess the order of flags matter?
[14:56] <saiarcot895> Switch f requires a file name
[14:56] <k1l_> MathCubes: there is no need to install a driver for the intel ones. intel works with the community to put the drivers into the kernel
[14:57] <crystal77> Ahh, so f has to go last. It thinks v is the filename, that's why a file called "v" keeps being created...
[14:57] <MathCubes> @adamk_ and when I run a game at first i got 100 - 130 fps then it drop to 1 - 5.  ON windows it stay at 100 - 120 Fps that Why.
[14:57] <k1l_> MathCubes: grab the logs from that game /systemlog what causes the drop
[14:58] <MathCubes> It is all games
[14:58] <k1l_> MathCubes: and most steam games require a seperate video card like amd or nvidia
[14:58] <MathCubes> that is med-high graftics
[14:59] <Mage_Dude> I mounted the wrong partition sda instead of something else, umount didn't remove it. Is there a particular flag that needs to be added to remove it?
[14:59] <MathCubes> I have Intel and With windows i get 100 - 120 fps for hours with Linux it is only for 3 min and it drop to 3 - 1 fps.
[15:00] <JoeDM> MathCubes try installing sudo apt-get install mesa-utils
[15:00] <crystal77> saiarcot895: Thanks man! :)
[15:00] <MathCubes> I did
[15:00] <saiarcot895> crystal77: you're welcome
[15:01] <k1l_> MathCubes: repeating that will not help your problem. get the logs to show what causes the drop
[15:01] <MathCubes> I try this http://goof848.wordpress.com/2011/12/20/how-to-setup-ubuntu-11-10-on-a-inspiron-17r-n7110/
[15:01] <JoeDM> you can try installing the drivers from intel
[15:01] <JoeDM> https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&DwnldID=13815&lang=eng
[15:01] <MathCubes> but that only made my system to go to Low Grifics mode
[15:02] <JoeDM> k1l_ he did https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&DwnldID=13815&lang=eng
[15:02] <adamk_> MathCubes: Then you didn't install them properly.
[15:02] <MathCubes> yes
[15:02] <JoeDM> sorry he posted here http://paste.ubuntu.com/5780703/
[15:02] <adamk_> I find it very doubtful that newer drivers from intel are going to help.
[15:02] <k1l_> well, than he should ask intel what is wrong with their driver
[15:02] <MathCubes> and one of them have a bad ppa
[15:03] <MathCubes> I did get the intel diver installed
[15:03] <MathCubes> How do I get the logs for the games?
[15:04] <MathCubes> I play xonotic and red ecipes
[15:04] <JoeDM> Mage_Dude you can't unmount a partition that is in use
[15:04] <JoeDM> there is a way to kill everything though
[15:04] <ActionParsnip> MathCubes: did you by any chance ad the xorg edgers ppa like steam seems to think is a good idea?
[15:04] <Mage_Dude> JoeDM: I think I've done enough to kill everything. Trying to not kill it more
[15:05] <MathCubes> ActionPArsnip I don't know what you are talking about!!!!?!
[15:05] <MathCubes> How do I add them?
[15:05] <ActionParsnip> MathCubes: when the steam app runs it mentions xorg edgers to get bleeding edge (unstable drivers and Xorg), did you install these?
[15:06] <MathCubes> No
[15:07] <n00b1> Hello, I'm having problem with GRUB .. during boot it only displays "GRUB loading.  _ "
[15:07] <ActionParsnip> MathCubes: good
[15:07] <n00b1> that's all
[15:07] <n00b1> can anybody help me pleae
[15:07] <arming> which package provides  full set of libc headers on ubuntu
[15:09] <MathCubes> IS ANYONE HELPING ME?
[15:09] <saiarcot895> n00b1: I'm no expert on grub, but you might have to start Ubuntu on a Live CD/USB and fix the GRUB data/bootloader using Boot Repair
[15:09] <JoeDM> Mage_Dude have you tried "fuser -km /mnt/share" followed by the unmount. This should stop every process accessing the drive
[15:10] <xlaire> i have problem, dunno how to change drive to my memory stic
[15:10] <xlaire> how to do that
[15:10] <n00b1> I have done that
[15:10] <Mage_Dude> JoeDM: Well, that might not even matter anymore. In looking at fdisk, my main partition...doesn't have a partition table!?
[15:10] <n00b1> I installed ubuntu on usb and plugged it in and reboot
[15:11] <n00b1> still the same
[15:12] <JoeDM> n00b1 what did you install GRUB to?
[15:12] <xlaire> ?
[15:13] <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] <JoeDM> can 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] <MathCubes> It work just fine under windows.
[15:13] <Jikag> I 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] <JoeDM> if not then Rescue Mode
[15:13] <MathCubes> And I want to play with my friends
[15:13] <Jikag> Does anyone know what might be common cause of this?
[15:14] <adamk_> MathCubes: This is not windows, so the fact that it works there is completely irrelevent.
[15:14] <Adrian179> Hello
[15:14] <JoeDM> Jikag he needs to put in a valid static setting to save the configuration
[15:14] <adamk_> MathCubes: Again, try a simpler game just to see what happens./
[15:14] <Adrian179> Does anybody knows how to configur Coova Chilli?
[15:14] <Jikag> JoeDM: Thanks
[15:14] <MathCubes> I know but you are sying it is the cpu but... if it was then why does windows run it just fine?
[15:15] <MathCubes> I will try neverball one
[15:15] <Adrian179> Hmm...?
[15:15] <JoeDM> you 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] <MathCubes> gpu
[15:15] <adamk_> And, in case you hadn't noticed, Windows uses a different graphics system than Linux, and therefore uses different drivers.
[15:16] <JoeDM> then you need to restart networking by either "service networking restart" or "/etc/init.d/networking restart"
[15:16] <xlaire> in terminal how to change drive to my memory stick'
[15:16] <Adrian179> or just ifupethX
[15:16] <MonkeyDust> Adrian179  try ##networking
[15:16] <Adrian179> Join ##networking
[15:17] <JoeDM> Question, How do you address a message to a user in this forum
[15:17] <vtrr> if anyone's interested in 20gb cloud storage: https://copy.com?r=MoOiFE
[15:18] <GiBy> Hi
[15:18] <Adrian179> Hi GiBy
[15:18] <ActionParsnip> JoeDM: doesn't disable it, it just isnt brought up at boot time :)
[15:19] <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] <JoeDM> adamk_: thanks
[15:20] <JoeDM> ActionParsnip' Good enough :)
[15:22] <MathCubes> Same but It took longerwith neverball and it wasn't as bad
[15:22] <GiBy> I never use ubuntu (I tried, but never satisfy) .... Actually whille on IRC talking about translation somewhere else... someone took a po file as template... It was a very old one of a project I translated years ago... he told me he has got it on ubuntu... Could you please update the game supertux?
[15:22] <MathCubes> IS ANYONR HELPING ME?
[15:23] <JoeDM> on the topic of IRC is there a way to disable notifications for everyone joining and leaving... my screen is too cluttered to read anything
[15:23] <JoeDM> :(
[15:23] <DJones> JoeDM: Which irc client are you using
[15:24] <JoeDM> MathCubes: Sorry I have always disliked graphics drivers. Not sure what you should do. I use shell for everything
[15:24] <adamk_> MathCubes: If you yell, no one is likely to help you.
[15:24] <MathCubes> I am using openbox and to play games too
[15:24] <JoeDM> DJones: web based one that was linked on ubuntu homepage
[15:25] <JoeDM> MathCubes: What was the exact problem, I came in half way.
[15:25] <MathCubes> Okay JoeDm, When I plays Game in 3 mins. in the drop to 3-1 fps from 100-200 fps.
[15:25] <DJones> JoeDM: webchat.freenode.net ?
[15:26] <MathCubes> @JoeDM Okay JoeDm, When I plays Game in 3 mins. in the drop to 3-1 fps from 100-200 fps.
[15:27] <Adrian179> Does anybody know how to configure CoovaChilli?
[15:27] <DJones> JoeDM: If it is, can you see the IRC dropdown menu in the top left, click that and go to Options, there is a tick box to hide joins/parts/quits
[15:27] <JoeDM> MathCubes: Sorry, Not sure. Sounds like the drivers are okay if the game can start. I dunno where to troubleshoot from there.
[15:28] <Magicarp> I'm trying to use parted to recover several lost partitions. I said to start at 0 and it's recovered one partition but how do I say go on to find the others?
[15:28] <MathCubes> But What diver Do I need? I have my intel viedo diver
[15:28] <JoeDM> DJones: Thanks, I looked there twice before but am obviously blind. Much more clear now.
[15:28] <MathCubes> http://www.dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/04/Product/inspiron-17r-n7110
[15:28] <adamk_> MathCubes: You are using the correct driver for your GPU.
[15:29] <JoeDM> MathCubes: In my experiance ubuntu default drivers should be fine for intel
[15:29] <adamk_> Do not download/install anything from Dell.
[15:29] <adamk_> MathCubes: If you absolutely want to try a newer driver, grab the one directly from Intel and hope for the best.
[15:29] <MathCubes> Humm Did not install one for the GPU
[15:29] <MathCubes> I did
[15:30] <adamk_> And if the problem persisted, then report it as a bug.
[15:30] <JoeDM> MathCubes: Is it lagging 1-3 mins into the game because that is when you get into action? the graphics chip you are using are only the ones built into the CPU and are not very powerful.
[15:30] <MathCubes> JoeDM but the games just work fine under windows it most be diver
[15:31] <JoeDM> MathCubes: are the games native to linux. e.g. not running on WINE?
[15:31] <MathCubes> Native to Linux I don't use Wine
[15:32] <lshkn> hi all, anybody know how not to drop ACL after calling chmod() ?
[15:32] <MathCubes> What GPU Do I have?
[15:33] <JoeDM> MathCubes: Looks like just the CPU which includes an Intel Graphics card
[15:33] <Adrian179> MathCubes:God knows!!!!
[15:33] <MathCubes> http://www.dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/04/Product/inspiron-17r-n7110
[15:33] <Adrian179> :)
[15:34] <MathCubes> But what command can I do in the terminal so I can know what one I have?
[15:34] <JoeDM> MathCubes: Driver for Intel Integrated Graphics Chipsets: i810
[15:34] <ActionParsnip> MathCubes: sudo lshw -C display
[15:34] <lshkn> or can anyone recommend good IRC with Linux developers
[15:34] <Ari-Yang> is there a apt-get command where it uninstalls but then installs the target package?
[15:34] <ActionParsnip> lshkn: #c++
[15:34] <Lars_G> Why am I getting a "different" LC_ALL (and it modifies all my locales) if I'm setting LANG on etc/default (to the same locale, different encoding, latin1), and I don't see LC_ALL being set anywhere in /etc ?
[15:34] <Ari-Yang> like a quick remove and then a quick install right after?
[15:35] <MathCubes> Is this What I am looking for http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/lucid/man4/intel.4.html?
[15:35] <lshkn> ActionParsnip: tnx
[15:35] <saiarcot895> Ari-Yang: I use Synaptic for that
[15:36] <Ari-Yang> what about in terminal?
[15:36] <adamk_> MathCubes: Your Xorg log file will tell you: Integrated Graphics Chipset: Intel(R) Sandybridge Mobile (GT2)
[15:36] <MathCubes> okay
[15:37] <ActionParsnip> MathCubes: what is the output of:  cat /etc/issue
[15:37] <Ari-Yang> !reinstall
[15:37] <MathCubes> Ubuntu 13.04 \n \l
[15:37] <JoeDM> Hi Guys, Whats the best way to modprobe on startup. I am installing SCST and the modules are not reloading when i reboot. I tried to do a update-initramfs -u -k $(uname -r)
[15:37] <Enje> testing
[15:37] <ActionParsnip> MathCubes: have you tried with xfce desktop instead of gnome?
[15:38] <ActionParsnip> JoeDM: you can add it in /etc/modules
[15:38] <MathCubes> I have use LXDE, Openbox, Gnome Fallback, Unity,....
[15:38] <MathCubes> I am useing OpenBox
[15:38] <ActionParsnip> MathCubes: all the same I guess :(
[15:39] <ActionParsnip> <3 openbox
[15:39] <JoeDM> ActionParsnip: Thanks that looks perfect :)
[15:39] <Ari-Yang> brb
[15:39] <Lars_G> Why am I getting a "different" LC_ALL (and it modifies all my locales) if I'm setting LANG on etc/default (to the same locale, different encoding, latin1), and I don't see LC_ALL being set anywhere in /etc ?
[15:41] <MathCubes> Can someone looks for a  Integrated Graphics Chipset: Intel(R) Sandybridge Mobile (GT2)  gpu diver for me?
[15:41] <MathCubes> 13.04
[15:41] <ActionParsnip> MathCubes: its in a default install
[15:41] <MathCubes> okay
[15:41] <ActionParsnip> MathCubes: you could try making an xorg.conf file to specify better settings
[15:42] <MathCubes> How Do i do that?
[15:42] <ActionParsnip> MathCubes: with blood, sweat and tears. Its not a simple file to make, there are lots of guides around the web#
[15:42] <Magicarp> I'm trying to use parted to recover a partition. I know the slice was right at the end of the disk but I don't know it's beginning. How can I recover it?
[15:42] <ActionParsnip> MathCubes: its very documented
[15:42] <Lars_G> ActionParsnip: At least we're over the modelines era. Mostly
[15:43] <ActionParsnip> Lars_G: oh man, that is my vietnam
[15:43] <MathCubes> Can you do it for me? :) :) :P
[15:43] <ActionParsnip> MathCubes: I can give you one I use on my nvidia gpu, you will need to switch the resolutions and so forth, then see what exta options the intel driver will take
[15:44] <MathCubes> okay
[15:44] <MathCubes> link please
[15:44] <ActionParsnip> MathCubes: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5780815
[15:44] <Lars_G> ActionParsnip: Don't. He'll blame you for any troubles. And doign so without an "Xorg -configure" starting point will be tedious
[15:45] <ActionParsnip> MathCubes: gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf    to get write access, you may need t drop to root recovery mode to rename the file to get back the desktop
[15:45] <MathCubes> oaky
[15:45] <ActionParsnip> Lars_G: mine's pretty stock really
[15:46] <Lars_G> Well I'll give up
[15:46] <Lars_G> I'll stick LC_ALL into /etc/environment and be done
[15:46] <MathCubes> SO I can't fix my issure :(
[15:47] <Ari-Yang> how do I make a newly installed window manager my default?
[15:47] <Umar> how do i locate a printer connected to my computer through usb ? need to locate the printer while configuring the printer ,on Ubuntu 13.01
[15:47] <Lars_G> MathCubes: Why not?
[15:48] <MathCubes> well no ones is talling me how to fix it
[15:48] <genii> Ari-Yang: Normally if you choose it from the login, it will be the default choice until you choose something else
[15:48] <Ari-Yang> genii, what? I thought that was selecting which desktop environment
[15:48] <k1l_> Ari-Yang: choose that on the login screen
[15:48] <Ari-Yang> oh
[15:48] <Ari-Yang> soryr
[15:48] <Ari-Yang> I meant file maanger
[15:49] <Lars_G> MathCubes: That's not true... you have shared no problem as far as I've seen. You asked a question, ActionParsnip responded more than kindly and reteratively. Saddly "type every letter for me, without no information at all" is not something solvable
[15:49] <Ari-Yang> * manager
[15:49] <Ari-Yang> not window manager
[15:49] <FloodBot1> Ari-Yang: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[15:49] <Magicarp> Umar there's a utility in the dash simply called 'printers' does it not show up in there?
[15:49] <adamk_> Lars_G: He's been talking about his problem for a while now...
[15:49] <Ari-Yang> yeah, how do I make a file manager default?
[15:49] <Lars_G> adamk_: Sorry I missed it.
[15:49] <Ari-Yang> like thunar
[15:49] <MathCubes> okay
[15:49] <Umar> yes
[15:49] <Lars_G> MathCubes: Sorry I missed it.
[15:49] <Umar> @magicarp yes
[15:50] <adamk_> And I'm doubtful anyone other than one of the intel driver developers could really be of much assistance...
[15:50] <MathCubes> I will give you the info just tell me what you need.
[15:50] <Lars_G> No, just tell me, what's the issue
[15:50] <Umar> what device do i select for a printer connected to usb port ?
[15:51] <MathCubes> When I run a game for 3 min then it drop down to 3-1 fps from 100-150 fps.
[15:52] <Lars_G> MathCubes: .... yes. that will be an extremely complicated issue to resolve. :(
[15:52] <readyjar> Anyone have trouble getting dual monitors of different resolutions working in 13.04?
[15:52] <adamk_> readyjar: Nope, works fine here on a few different machines.
[15:52] <MathCubes> okay do you want to use team viewer to fix it?
[15:52] <readyjar> adamk_: Any of them laptops?
[15:53] <adamk_> readyjar: Yes.
[15:53] <k1l_> readyjar: depends on your video card, the driver and the solutions you want
[15:53] <k1l_> *resolutions
[15:53] <readyjar> I know the video card supports both resolutions. I do it on windows install just fine
[15:54] <adamk_> readyjar: So what happens when you try?
[15:54] <k1l_> readyjar: which video card, which driver, which resolutions? ,...?
[15:54] <readyjar> adamk_: Sometimes it works for a minute, but once I try to move anything to the second monitor the display crashes and then reverts back to mirrored
[15:55] <readyjar> Then after that it won't work at all unless I reboot
[15:55] <adamk_> readyjar: Yikes, never heard of that happening...
[15:55] <readyjar> k1l_: It's a Radeon HD6370
[15:56] <adamk_> readyjar: Using the open source drivers?
[15:56] <k1l_> hmm, well im not familiar with ati. i have no problem with my nvidia and the nvidia-current with that setup
[15:56] <readyjar> adamk_: I am. There are two available proprietary drivers I haven't yet tested
[15:57] <MathCubes> So no one can help me?
[15:57] <readyjar> MathCubes: What's up?
[15:58] <MathCubes> good
[15:58] <readyjar> MathCubes: No what did you need help with?
[15:58] <adamk_> readyjar: Well this sounds a whole lot like a driver bug to me...  I'd confirm that it works fine with the open source driver and, if so, report this to AMD.
[15:58] <deadweasel> MathCubes> When I run a game for 3 min then it drop down to 3-1 fps from 100-150 fps.
[15:58] <MathCubes> My issure is when I run a game for 3-6 min the fps drops from 100-150 to 3-5 then to 1 fps.
[15:58] <bazhang> MathCubes, is this game in wine, yes
[15:59] <DeLorean731> I have followed a few guides to get Java apps to work within Firefox and I can't seem to get them to work. Is anyone willing to help me troubleshoot? I'm running Ubuntu 12.04 LTS with Firefox 21.0
[15:59] <adamk_> MathCubes: It is *really* unlikely anyone here is going to be able to fix what seems to be, by all appearances, a bug with the intel driver.
[15:59] <MathCubes> So I can't get help :'(
[16:00] <bazhang> MathCubes, which game, in wine, or not
[16:00] <Umar> i have launched the hp printer application , it says no printer found on USB bus , what do i do ? i have connected the printer to USB of the computer ,and USB port is also working properly.
[16:00] <adamk_> Not.
[16:00] <bazhang> DeLorean731, which java apps
[16:00] <Ari-Yang> so, how do I set a file manager to default on ubuntu (12.10)?
[16:00] <readyjar> MathCubes: Linux isn't quite up to being able to play games comfortably
[16:00] <MathCubes> not help... humm have it to be fixed.
[16:00] <DeLorean731> bazhang: there was a chat room and a java game that wouldn't work that I've tried so far
[16:00] <deadweasel> MathCubes: stop playing whatever you're playing and start playing Urban Terror 4.02.
[16:00] <MathCubes> NAtive
[16:00] <bazhang> DeLorean731, which exact game please
[16:00] <Umar> admk is that not for me ?
[16:00] <DeLorean731> Drakensang.com
[16:00] <FX6300> Can you recover a partition using Parted if you don't know it's start position on the disk?
[16:00] <MathCubes> any 3d game or high 2d game
[16:01] <adamk_> Umar: It's not.
[16:01] <Umar> k,anybody else please help me.
[16:01] <DeLorean731> bazhang: fogot to ping you... in case you rely on that, www.drakensang.com
[16:02] <JoeDM> Does anybody here know much about SCST. I'm having troubles where it does not reload the /etc/scst.conf on reboot?
[16:02] <bazhang> DeLorean731, needs to be registered it seems
[16:02] <MathCubes> xonotic, neverball, red ecpics, open ...
[16:02] <DeLorean731> bazhang: www.teenspot.com was the chat room I was trying to get into as well, I dont' think that requires registration
[16:03] <JoeDM> alternatively is there a way to run a comman like "scstadmin -write_config /etc/scst.conf" on reboot prior to login?
[16:03] <MonkeyDust> JoeDM  in crontab, use @reboot
[16:03] <DeLorean731> bazhang: meh nevermind, looks like registration IS required
[16:03] <DeLorean731> bazhang: want me to give you a registration login I don't care about?
[16:04] <JoeDM> MonkeyDusk: I have heard about crontab but have never used. I'll google it now :)
[16:04] <bazhang> DeLorean731, no thanks, thats all right
[16:04] <MathCubes> bye
[16:04] <MonkeyDust> JoeDM  sudo crontab -e     then add      @reboot [command]
[16:07] <JoeDM> MonkeyDust: Rebooting now to test. Crontab looks really easy to use. I've been missing out all this time :D
[16:07] <robertzaccour> Is it possible to make certain apps use more RAM in exchange for using less processing power?
[16:08] <JoeDM> robertzaccour: RAM and Processing power are two different things that are in no way interchangable
[16:08] <jrib> robertzaccour: in some basic cases that may be possible at the algorithm level but I doubt it would be exposed in most applications.  Why do you want to do that?
[16:08] <robertzaccour> JoeDM, Oh man that sucks. Its impossible to record screencast smoothly with more than one video source on the screen at a time.
[16:09] <Afggh> Hi guys
[16:09] <robertzaccour> jrib, ^
[16:09] <robertzaccour> 2 up
[16:10] <JoeDM> robertzaccour: If you want really smooth screen recording you can get dedicated recording cards. Obviously that cost money though :(
[16:10] <Afggh> Which pdf reader is the best for ubuntu with features comparable to adobe acrobat?
[16:10] <bazhang> Afggh, acroread
[16:10] <nevyn> robertzaccour: wayland will fix it *duck&
[16:10] <bazhang> !info partner acroread | Afggh
[16:10] <elisa871> Hi do you know what should I do if  bash: apt-get: command not found ??
[16:10] <bazhang> augh
[16:10] <bazhang> !info acroread partner
[16:11] <robertzaccour> JoeDM, it does fine with one video at a time, but to record my mug at the same time I have to use my camcorder set up behind my laptop and then edit together in Kdenlive
[16:11] <bazhang> Afggh, ^
[16:11] <jrib> elisa871: output of « ls /usr/bin/apt-get »?
[16:11] <metaphysician> Afggh: give Evince a try
[16:11] <robertzaccour> nevyn, Is it possible to go ahead and test wayland for myself?
[16:11] <robertzaccour> nevyn, or Mir, whichever comes first.
[16:11] <JoeDM> MonkeyDust: Hi Sorry, The command did not run on start. Does it need to be inside of a script or can i feed it a raw command?
[16:11] <elisa871> jrib ls: cannot access /usr/bin/apt*: No such file or directory
[16:11] <Afggh> Ok...thanks a lot bazhang, metaphysician
[16:12] <jrib> elisa871: this isn't what I asked you to type
[16:12] <elisa871> jrib: ls: cannot access /usr/bin/apt-get: No such file or directory
[16:12] <jrib> elisa871: and you have no idea why?
[16:12] <nevyn> robertzaccour: so wayland should make it better but might make it worse (in particular it's not clear that there's a mechinism to extract video data from accelerated playback paths)
[16:13] <robertzaccour> nevyn, Do you know if I can go ahead and test out wayland?
[16:13] <elisa871> This is a disk image I have downloaded which has gcc 4.1.2 so I needed to install gcc 4.6 or 4.7 on it the problem is that it doesn't even have apt-get when I chroot to it..
[16:14] <adamk_> elisa871: Wait...  Is this Ubuntu?
[16:14] <nevyn> robertzaccour: I don't believe wayland is currently dogfood let alone alpha
[16:15] <MonkeyDust> JoeDM  raw command should work, I use    @reboot rm -r /home/username/.cache
[16:15] <elisa871> adamk_: that's what I am unsure Linux HP 3.8.0-19-generic #29-Ubuntu SMP Wed Apr 17 18:16:28 UTC 2013 x86_64 GNU/Linux!!!
[16:16] <DJones> robertzaccour: As I understand it, wayland has been scrapped from an Ubuntu point of view
[16:16] <elisa871> because I merged the disk image with an empty Ubuntu disk image I created adamk_
[16:16] <jrib> elisa871: you should complain to whoever created/gave you the image
[16:16] <elisa871> using rsync
[16:17] <Gyndawyr> hey guys do you know where I can find support for tails linux?
[16:17] <bazhang> !alis | Gyndawyr
[16:18] <Gyndawyr> yeah erm could you just tell me?
[16:18] <bazhang> Gyndawyr, yeah, use alis to search
[16:19] <Gyndawyr> I've never used alis.
[16:19] <Mrokii> Hello. What could be the reason that a burned CD (not burned by me) only shows as a "UDF Volume" but when I click it in Nautilus, it shows no contents?
[16:19] <bazhang> Gyndawyr, please ask for assistance in #freenode then
[16:19] <Gyndawyr> very well
[16:21] <teamcoltra_noaut> My mac doesn't seem to like booting from the ISO transfered to USB through startup creator, but it did boot through the usb drive that was created when in the Mac OS -- So I was thinking I would try the same process I used on the mac (convert the .iso to .img and then dd the img to USB), however, I can't find any instructions on how to transfer a .img file to USB
[16:22] <teamcoltra_noaut> Could I just run dd if=/path/to/downloaded.img of=/dev/diskN bs=1M
[16:22] <teamcoltra_noaut> if so how do I find what /dev/disk# my USB drive is

[16:32] <userubuntu> do heave ubuntu?
[16:32] <KrisHansen> ikonia: i wish i knew ?
[16:32] <ikonia> KrisHansen: why do you think someone is hacking your computer ?
[16:32] <KrisHansen> ikonia: oh its just terrible
[16:32] <ikonia> KrisHansen: I didn't ask if it was good

[16:34] <ikonia> KrisHansen: right - so in that case your machine is using high ram so you randomly assume someone is "hacking you"
[16:34] <ikonia> KrisHansen: not really the best reasonsing really is it
[16:34] <KrisHansen> ikonia: not exactly nut yes
[16:35] <ikonia> KrisHansen: 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 done
[16:35] <wooo> I want to open /dev/block/ files...but its showing me error..."could not open file"
[16:35] <wooo> how to open those ?
[16:35] <KrisHansen> ikonia: i really thought someone might be hacking me man , i got like oliver north on me man
[16:36] <ikonia> KrisHansen you just made a random thing up, nothing more
[16:36] <KrisHansen> ikonia: ok its cool man, so like whats eating up ram ?
[16:36] <wooo> please help
[16:36] <ikonia> KrisHansen: why don't you ask the channel and explain the problem - factually, without any made up stuff, and see if people will/can help
[16:37] <KrisHansen> ikonia: ok nevermind, i am going to consipiracy channel with this oliver north issue

[16:51] <oal> Hmm. Any shortcuts using ctrl+shift+something only work when I press the ctrl key first, and then shift etc. Any ideas why that would happen..?

[16:53] <panthrax> Hi. Made the switch to Lubuntu today, but having some wireless issues. Was hoping I could get some help?
[16:54] <chro> when I start a session just with a certain user I got the following message: "The program 'screen' is currently not installed.  You can install it by typing:" Where is this coming from ?
[16:55] <DJones> panthrax: Explain your problem in a bit more detail, if anybody see's the question and can help, they normally reply
[16:57] <panthrax> Well I have a Broadcom BCM4306 network card which wasn't recognized by Lubuntu at first. Following a guide I found, I installed the drivers and firmware for it and now Lubuntu recognizes my wireless network and even lets me connect to it, but that's about it. I can't view websites at all. I've tried pinging some major websites like Google and I get nothing. I tried changing the DNS addresses to an open DNS (4.2.2.4) and still nothing
[16:57] <panthrax> I'm stumped.
[16:57] <panthrax> Being completely new to Linux, I have no idea where to go next.
[17:00] <MonkeyDust> panthrax  use ethernet to get familiar with ubuntu linux
[17:00] <qwebirc67388>  panthrax > what step was your last successful one ?
[17:00] <matbee> Hey-- occasionally while browsing the web or whatever, my laptop stops responding to input-- (or getting to it really slowly). I check my terminal logs and I'm getting "write error on swap device", but I'm running an SSD.
[17:00] <MonkeyDust> panthrax  THEN struggle with wifi
[17:01] <matbee> Any ideas what could be causing this?
[17:01] <compdoc> matbee, did you set up the partitions manually?
[17:02] <compdoc> matbee, what does SMART say about the health of the drive?
[17:02] <LiquidDemocracy> Is it possible for the NSA and other undemocratic government agencies to  manipulate the Ubuntu repositories? Ubuntu is a company after all.
[17:02] <matbee> compdoc, Yes, I did, but the swap partition is just my main /

[17:03] <DeLorean731> I have followed a few guides to get Java apps to work within Firefox and I can't seem to get them to work. Is anyone willing to help me troubleshoot? I'm running Ubuntu 12.04 LTS with Firefox 21.0
[17:03] <histo> LiquidDemocracy: the packages are open source so you can review the code for anything out of place yourself.
[17:03] <LiquidDemocracy> I am looking for support to protect myself against illegal government spy activities. Could anybody please help?
[17:03] <bazhang> LiquidDemocracy, yeah, in #ubuntu-offtopic
[17:03] <panthrax> sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter firmware-b43legacy-installer    -   That's what made my broadcom network card to even be recognized. From there, I have had no further successes. I installed those, restarted, and my wireless was suddenly available. I entered in my key and it connected, but when I tried to view a webpage, I got nothing. Curious, I tried pinging some websites and I got nothing.
[17:04] <LiquidDemocracy> bazhang, is ubuntu-offtopic a support channel?
[17:04] <K4k> no
[17:04] <bazhang> LiquidDemocracy, your question isnot
[17:04] <k1l_> LiquidDemocracy: you have no technical support question.
[17:04] <LiquidDemocracy> bazhang, why is it not?
[17:04] <LiquidDemocracy> bazhang, security questions are not allowed in here?
[17:04] <bazhang> LiquidDemocracy, lets move on please
[17:04] <ikonia> LiquidDemocracy: here is your answer "no" it's not possible for the gonvernment to tamper with it. There is your answer
[17:04] <compdoc> LiquidDemocracy, what on earth makes you think that you and your activities are important enough to have the NSA monitor you?

[17:22] <Guest64570> reisio,any luck?
[17:22] <panthrax> So do you have any suggestions on what I can do, if it's not wireless?
[17:22] <reisio> Guest64570: with?
[17:22] <Guest64570> reisio, with the external thing
[17:23] <reisio> Guest64570: what displays section are you talking about?
[17:23] <bgardner> panthrax: PM me and we'll work on it.  No need to put all our noise on the channel.
[17:23] <reisio> Guest64570: in the GUI?
[17:23] <Guest64570> reisio, yes
[17:23] <Guest64570> reisio, i also thing that xrandr command recognise it
[17:23] <reisio> Guest64570: what driver are you using?
[17:24] <Guest64570> reisio, right now iam using the intel gpu
[17:24] <cosmen> resizt0r,  thx i find : TJUNCTION 	100 C its ok :)
[17:25] <Guest64570> reisio, but i tried it also with the nvidia,but with no luck
[17:26] <reisio> Guest64570: you might want to look into optimus support; check linux-laptop.net and/or ubuntuforums.org
[17:27] <Guest64570> reisio, got that but i should not be able to use it only with the intel gpu?
[17:28] <reisio> Guest64570: you definitely should, but I couldn't speak to whether you will be able to perfectly out of the box
[17:34] <ghost_> hi
[17:35] <BluesKaj> Guest64570, http://www.webupd8.org/2013/04/bumblebee-321-released-with-ubuntu-1304.html
[17:35] <reisio> ghost_: hiyo
[17:36] <mgriffin> peterrooney: were you giving me a hint or just asking for that output? sorry for misunderstanding
[17:36] <Guest64570> BluesKaj, i am using 12.04
[17:36] <BluesKaj> oh , too bad
[17:37] <cosmen> :))
[17:37] <Guest64570> BluesKaj, also i want to use the external monitor when i am using the intel gpu
[17:37] <BluesKaj> Guest64570, dunno if there's a fix for optimus in 12.04
[17:37] <Guest64570> BluesKaj, i have hybrid gpu
[17:38] <ghost_> there is somebody from Russia?
[17:38] <DJones> !ru | ghost_
[17:38] <BluesKaj> yes , optiumus is hybrid as well , sorry to misread , Guest64570
[17:39] <flux242> ghost_: do you mean russian speaking or current location?
[17:40] <hannah8> when installing ubuntu alongside windows (on same comp) is there risk of losing windows data? is windows backup necessary/recommended/unnecessary?
[17:41] <holstein> hannah8: i would *always* backup data.. think of it this way.. the hard drive you are on *will* fail, so making a backup is a good step regardless
[17:41] <reisio> hannah8: mostly just risk in human error
[17:42] <ghost_> join #ubuntu-ru
[17:42] <SaxX> Hi all
[17:42] <reisio> yup, for all hard drives but mine, it's true, they fail
[17:42]  * reisio tempts fate
[17:42] <reisio> SaxX: hi
[17:42] <SaxX> when I type evince myfile.pdf
[17:42] <SaxX> i got an error
[17:43] <hannah8> yes i understand backup is always important but just wanted to understand if when installing ubuntu alongside windows risk of losing data is particularly high or not
[17:43] <mgriffin> 12:41 <reisio> hannah8: mostly just risk in human error
[17:43] <reisio> for example, don't tell Ubuntu's installer to install over your Windows partition/s
[17:44] <reisio> etc.
[17:44] <SaxX> is there anyone who have encountered the same matter?
[17:44] <reisio> SaxX: does evince not open?
[17:44] <mgriffin> SaxX: which error?
[17:44] <SaxX> it doesn't reisio
[17:45] <SaxX> this one mgriffin but in french
[17:45] <SaxX> La ligne de commande « dbus-launch --autolaunch=995644fc9e18514d4cfdbe440000000e --binary-syntax --close-stderr » s'est terminée avec un code de fin non nul 1 : No protocol specified\nNo protocol specified\nAutolaunch error: X11 initialization failed.\n
[17:45] <SaxX> No protocol specified
[17:45] <SaxX> No protocol specified
[17:45] <SaxX> Cannot parse arguments: Impossible d'ouvrir l'affichage :
[17:45] <FloodBot1> SaxX: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[17:45] <hannah8> so if ubuntu installer gets correct input risk of losing windows data is zero or i mean same as always, correct?
[17:45] <joelwallis> Hi. I need to perform some commands when the Ubuntu graphical interface starts (I'm using 13.04 desktop version). I need to mound --bind some paths of my secondary HD into my /home folder. In which file should I put this command?
[17:45] <reisio> SaxX: evince doesn't not open?
[17:46] <SaxX> no it's doesn't open
[17:46] <reisio> k
[17:46] <mgriffin> SaxX: did you ssh in to this server or something? is this just a normal terminal in Gnome or whatever
[17:46] <reisio> SaxX: does 'file foo.pdf' say it's a PDF?
[17:46] <mgriffin> SaxX: tried xeyes or something simple?
[17:46] <SaxX> it's on my local machine mgriffin
[17:47] <SaxX> yes reisio when i type file foo.pdf it's says that
[17:48] <reisio> SaxX: what about if you run evince and manually CTRL+o open it?
[17:49] <SaxX> i am going to test it reisio and tell you
[17:49] <reisio> okely dokely
[17:50] <SaxX> huum maybe a stupid question coming from me
[17:50] <SaxX> but how do i run manually evince reisio
[17:50] <SaxX> ?
[17:50] <K4k> Does ubottu have some kind of flood protection on it? I'm trying to learn it's commands but it's stopped responding to me.
[17:50] <holstein> SaxX: i would run it from the terminal, and see if there are helpful errors
[17:51] <holstein> K4k: query the bot
[17:51] <K4k> holstein: I run /msg ubottu *whatever* and I get no message in return. It worked a few times and then stopped
[17:51] <SaxX> you got it holstein
[17:51] <reisio> SaxX: 'evince'
[17:51] <SaxX> when i run it manually i got an error
[17:51] <holstein> K4k: i would just /q him
[17:51] <teamcoltra_noaut> Is there any good way to convert an iso to img in ubuntu? There was a program for it, but it apparently has been pulled
[17:52] <reisio> teamcoltra_noaut: what do you imagine the difference is?
[17:52] <K4k> holstein: oh, it seems he doesn't respond to some things. Interesting. At first it was saying it didn't know what I was asking and then those same queries stopped returning anything
[17:53] <iceroot> teamcoltra_noaut: an iso is an image
[17:53] <iceroot> teamcoltra_noaut: mv file.iso file.img
[17:53] <teamcoltra_noaut> reisio:  I have no idea, but when I write .img files to my USB drive my mac will boot from them, when I write a .iso file it will not
[17:53] <ezra-s> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IMG_(file_format)
[17:53] <reisio> teamcoltra_noaut: using what procedure/s?
[17:54] <ezra-s> apple propietary crap
[17:54] <reisio> maybe you mean ".dmg", yeah
[17:54] <reisio> I'm sure Mac OS supports ISO-9660/UDF, too, though
[17:54] <teamcoltra_noaut> reisio:  no, I mean .img
[17:54] <reisio> not that it matters
[17:54] <reisio> that is a problem for #macosx, TBH
[17:55] <ezra-s> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_Disk_Image
[17:55] <reisio> .img is just an extension
[17:55] <reisio> it indicates very little
[17:55] <teamcoltra_noaut> How would it be? if I use DD and go from img to usb drive and that works, but have the same file in iso and it doesn't... it means there has to be some difference.
[17:56] <teamcoltra_noaut> and if there is a program which converts .img to .iso  (which I have found) then I would assume there are at least some differences to the files
[17:56] <reisio> right, it's just that the difference has little to do with the extension :)
[17:56] <hannah8> ok thank you
[17:57] <reisio> teamcoltra_noaut: try this http://www.google.com/search?q=%22linux%22%20%22iso%20to%20dmg%22
[17:59] <Horb> does anyone have an idea  on how to approach the following, spamming reinstalls and googling has gotten me nowhere, adam@craptop:~$ pavucontrol >>> pavucontrol: error while loading shared libraries: libsigc-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

[18:00] <LuNaTiX> I love this new OS
[18:00] <LuNaTiX> never back to windows
[18:01] <LuNaTiX> Just SAYin ^_^
[18:01] <ezra-s> LuNaTiX, any OS has its weaknesses, don't be obfuscated by this technological terror you just discovered! :P
[18:03] <LuNaTiX> I was attacked I believe one night, pc was doing things i never seen in my life do, and my android also
[18:03] <LuNaTiX> switched over to ubuntu , secured my data, backed it up
[18:03] <LuNaTiX> now all my servers and computers will run ubuntu
[18:03] <BluesKaj> ezra-s, linux can be a revelation after using windows for many years
[18:04] <reisio> LuNaTiX: compared to using Windows, a fairly wise choice
[18:05] <LuNaTiX> I know this isnt the place to ask, but I have a php poll setup about a heated topic and I have alot of issues with polls being over run by external votes
[18:05] <Smiche> Hello
[18:05] <LuNaTiX> i been working on trying to make it as fair as possible
[18:06] <LuNaTiX> what channel could i use for assistance in that
[18:06] <ezra-s> BluesKaj, you bet it is... after many years many of us are still seeing the surface of Linux, working with it is amazing
[18:06] <Smiche> Some1 knows whats the behaviour on ubuntu when the gfx card ram or gpu overheats?
[18:06] <Smiche> of*
[18:07] <suore> Hello, need help. i downloaded one game, and game have option of special item. ALT + RCLICK = Showing item top other as clickable link at chat. But ALT moving window. Im Ubuntu 13.04
[18:07] <Smiche> Cause a game im playing is freezing at random moments and sound keeps going on so i guess its my gfx with problem
[18:07] <ezra-s> LuNaTiX, probably seek a channel of the poll software you are using
[18:07] <reisio> suore: yay blogs http://askubuntu.com/questions/70392/how-do-i-disable-the-alt-right-click-keyboard-binding
[18:08] <Smiche> does compiz use any excessive vram or gpu?
[18:08] <Smiche> when not performing any tasks with unity
[18:08] <reisio> I wouldn't say excessive, no
[18:08] <reisio> it uses more than an unaccelerated wm
[18:09] <balthazar> Hey, I just recently installed Ubuntu 64 bit, on my i7 3770k, Sabertooth Z77 motherboard, but I dont even get to the boot menu (GRUB) just totally black. I have tried reinstall it 2 times, but have got same affect after the installation.
[18:09] <balthazar> Does this have anything to do with UEFI / motherboard?
[18:10] <Smiche> reisio couldnt it be the reason for a game to be stucking? at random times, i think its my gfx card getting rid of the vram or overheating no idea
[18:10] <bekks> balthazar: By default, the boot menu is hidden.
[18:10] <bekks> !nomodeset < balthazar
[18:10] <bekks> !nomodeset | balthazar
[18:10] <Smiche> the game just freezes for 4-5 or more seconds and return to normal and my pc is hell hot while im playing it
[18:10] <Smiche> yet ive burned a gfx card and overheated my previous one nothing like this happend
[18:10] <balthazar> bekks: Ok,but nothing it showing up in the screen, it dont even boot ubuntu.
[18:11] <Smiche> when it overheated the pc just froze and neven got back to normal
[18:11] <bekks> balthazar: Thats because of that missing nomodeset option, probably.
[18:12] <ezra-s> Smiche, sounds like gpu fan might not be keeping up to refresh the gpu enough
[18:12] <suore> lol...
[18:12] <balthazar> bekks: ok, but how should i even get the chance to edit nomodeeset option, when it dont even boot and the screen is black :/
[18:12] <Smiche> any solutions to that?
[18:12] <suore> i change to nothinh i cannot now do anything...
[18:12] <Amiga_Wicca> als ik kan de driver van de ati videokaart?
[18:12] <Smiche> the game plays well on windows and with the same fps actually
[18:13] <bekks> balthazar: You have to enter the grub menu.
[18:13] <SonikkuAmerica> !nl | Amiga_Wicca
[18:13] <bekks> balthazar: Which Ubuntu version do you use?
[18:13] <kanha> angela_1: Hi
[18:13] <Amiga_Wicca> gracias =)
[18:13] <balthazar> bekks: yeah, but it seems that i dont have the chance to get to the grub menu
[18:13] <Smiche> well im gonna run the game and check the gpu temp through sensors
[18:13] <cariveri> hi. my aurora engine does not work. who do I speak to?
[18:13] <Smiche> just updating it atm
[18:13] <balthazar> bekks: 13.04
[18:14] <reisio> cariveri: 'does not work'?
[18:14] <bekks> balthazar: So your computer boots, otherwise you wouldnt have been able to install Ubuntu.
[18:14] <bekks> !grub2 | balthazar
[18:14] <Smiche> some1 knows if there's a program checking if all pins on the ide cable to ide are hooked up?
[18:15] <ezra-s> Smiche, I bet noone does
[18:15] <balthazar> bekks: yes it boots, but it seems it dont boot ubuntu and i dont see any "grub" menu ether on start only the manufactor for my motherboard then after that, totally black
[18:15] <reisio> Smiche: -> echo 'use your eyes'
[18:15] <Smiche> my 2nd hdd doesnt seem to work since i unhooked it and hooked it back
[18:15] <cariveri> reisio: yes. all the aurora based themes dont display the proper colors in and icons. its just black. reinstall and make reinstall did not work.
[18:15] <ezra-s> reisio, lol
[18:15] <bekks> Smiche: Technically - thats not possible using "a program".
[18:15] <Smiche> and one pin is a little bit fallen in
[18:15] <Smiche> okay
[18:15] <balthazar> bekks: so how will i be bale to change this line in grub when i cant start ubunut?
[18:15] <ezra-s> Smiche, use a screwdriver to straight it up
[18:15] <Smiche> well i saw an aluminium coil trick so im going to try it
[18:15] <reisio> balthazar: from your install media
[18:16] <bekks> balthazar: You have to enter the grub menu, yes.
[18:16] <Smiche> i used pliers to pull it out
[18:16] <Smiche> but still doesnt work
[18:16] <Smiche> well ill use some coil
[18:16] <bekks> Smiche: Buy a new one.
[18:16] <Smiche> its 80gb and its 8 years old
[18:16] <Smiche> feeling sad for that little thing :(
[18:16] <Smiche> it worked so fine until i broke it
[18:17] <Smiche> wondered if it would hold forever
[18:17] <Smiche> could have kept a windows(yup that 7gb virus) running
[18:17]  * ezra-s slaps Smiche , stop flooding
[18:17] <Smiche> sorry my bad
[18:17] <bekks> Smiche: It doesnt matter in here, since thats offtopic for ubuntu support.
[18:17] <ezra-s> :P
[18:18] <Smiche> okay so on topic -> Ubuntu is awesome
[18:20] <taime1> Hi. When I try to start or restart smbd or nmbd, I get "Unkown job:"  Can someone help me troubleshoot this?
[18:22] <JoeSomebody> what is the tool for ms publisher in linux? (assuming there is one)
[18:22] <ezra-s> taime1, try /etc/init.d/smbd start|stop
[18:22] <ezra-s> taime1, maybe it has not migrated to upstart
[18:22] <taime1> ezra-s: same
[18:23] <ezra-s> taime1, ps auxww | grep -i smbd brings something up?
[18:23] <anonymous_> hi
[18:23] <w30> taime1, mine works ; I type service smbd restart
[18:23] <taime1> ezra-s: lemme check
[18:24] <w30> taime1, as root or sudo of course
[18:24] <Smiche> just checked my sensors the temperature doesnt move and it got stuck again
[18:24] <Smiche> and my monitor restarted
[18:24] <ezra-s> taime1, also do check /var/cache/samba or any related residual files in case the process is not running
[18:25] <abetusk_w__> I'm thinking of buying a printer and using it on my Ubuntu 12.04 box.  Last time I did this was nearly a decade ago and remember having signifcant problem with drivers and such.  Are most of these issues solved now?  Should I be staying away from a particular brand or focusing on a few brands to buy?  Should I expect to install drivers and hack away at it to get it working?
[18:25] <taime1> ezra-s: 781 0.0 0.0 3116 724 pts/2 S+ (color is red)
[18:25] <ezra-s> Smiche, which temperature?
[18:25] <Smiche> the gpu
[18:25] <taime1> abetusk_w__: get a HP
[18:25] <ezra-s> Smiche, which temperature?
[18:25] <Smiche> there isnt a monitor for the video ram or at least i dont know how to show it
[18:25] <Smiche> the gfx card spu stays steadily at 80
[18:25] <abetusk_w__> taime1, dell and lexmark or not as supported?
[18:26] <taime1> abetusk_w__: nope.
[18:26] <ezra-s> mmm, that can be normal in some gpu's
[18:26] <ezra-s> 80ºC I assume
[18:26] <taime1> abetusk_w__: dell: forget it. lexmark: hit or miss. just stick with hp
[18:26] <Smiche> 80 c is pretty normal with my gpu
[18:26] <ezra-s> 80F would be cold hehehe
[18:26] <Smiche> i guess its the vram then
[18:26] <ezra-s> taime1, 781 is the pid? kill it
[18:27] <abetusk_w__> taime1, thanks
[18:28] <samuel> I dont find LAMP in software center,pls guys help
[18:28] <taime1> ezra-s: 781 not running
[18:28] <taime1> abetusk_w__: no problem
[18:29] <Smiche> just messed up some configuration on playonlinux app
[18:29] <tking> hello please how can i copy and paste file to /var/www/ directory without command line?
[18:30] <taime1> tking: gksu nautilus
[18:30] <tking> taimel, i don't want to do it using gksu
[18:30] <tking> i am thinking of giving it the right permission
[18:30] <taime1> tking: what are you trying to do?
[18:31] <tking> taime1, i want to paste file from y desktop to that director
[18:31] <tking> directory*
[18:31] <taime1> then use gksu nautilus
[18:31] <ezra-s> samuel, apt-get install apache2 mysql-server php5 can get you started with most things you need
[18:34] <samuel> ezra-s,i dont comprehend
[18:35] <dev_> How would I disable MOTD from being rewritten on reboot on 13.04?
[18:35] <taime1> Still getting "Unknown job" when trying to start smbd. Anyone?
[18:35] <ezra-s> samuel, LAMP as I understand it is Linux, Apache, Mysql, PHP.. well, with that command I tell you, you install them
[18:36] <tking> taimel cant i give permistion to the directory???
[18:36] <ezra-s> taime1, if smbd is not up try running it manually instead of the init/upstart script
[18:36] <ezra-s> see what it says when you try to run it
[18:37] <taime1> tking: 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] <tking> gksu or gksudo?
[18:37] <taime1> ezra-s: the upstart script in what directory? sorry for stupid question
[18:37] <tking> one i heard is bad
[18:37] <taime1> tking: i said it three times. gksu
[18:37] <trism> dev_: if you just want to add some static text to the motd, add it to /etc/motd.tail
[18:38] <ezra-s> taime1, in /etc/init.d
[18:38] <ezra-s> taime1, seach for the smbd binary and run it
[18:38] <dev_> trism: Is there a way to prevent all the other system info being appended about .tail on reboot though?
[18:39] <dev_> *above
[18:39] <trism> dev_: it is controlled by the scripts in /etc/update-motd.d/, if you chmod -x them they won't run
[18:39] <trism> dev_: though 99-footer is the one that appends motd.tail, so you probably still want that
[18:39] <dev_> trism: I'll give that a go, thanks.

[18:43] <Netfeed> is it possible to "side-upgrade" from linux mint to ubuntu? most of the packages that is used in mint is from unbuntu proper anyways
[18:44] <MonkeyDust> Netfeed  no
[18:45] <Netfeed> how come?

[18:47] <jaatrox> hey folks anyone out there
[18:47] <Vianstak> saludos
[18:47] <MonkeyDust> Smiche  if you're copying from one folder to the other using  a GUI, you can use    watch ls -lh [folder]    to see how it's progressing
[18:47] <Vianstak> tube un problema con los archivos del grub y ya lo solucione pero ahora no me reconoce el otro OS que tenia instalado alguna sugerencia?

[18:48] <jaatrox> from where should i start to learn everything about ubuntu
[18:48] <taime1> ezra-s: i cant find a binary for smbd, just the script in init.d
[18:48] <DJones> !manual | jaatrox The best way is just to use it, you can also look the bot's info,
[18:49] <samuel> guys,i still face difficulties with a LAMP installation.....anyone with an appealing help pls
[18:49] <MonkeyDust> jaatrox  start here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwitchingToUbuntu/FromWindows

[18:56] <brad100> ok, 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 ?
[18:57] <DeLorean731> brad100: 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 them
[18:57] <compdoc> brad100, if it has 3 wires, it isnt being controlled by the OS
[18:58] <brad100> well i trust you guys so im cutting the yellow wire
[18:58] <brad100> @compdoc what controlls the yellow wire
[18:58] <compdoc> thats a bad idea
[18:58] <brad100> why?
[18:58] <compdoc> the yellow wire is for rpm monitor
[18:58] <kave> salam :)
[18:58] <brad100> its a six year old laptop i got from walmart
[18:59] <compdoc> it lets you know how fast its going, it doesnt control the fan
[18:59] <brad100> i dont care too much about it
[18:59] <compdoc> if you have a 4-wire fan, it can be controlled
[18:59] <brad100> nope just 3 wires
[18:59] <kave> is here any body understand farsi ?
[18:59] <compdoc> then nothing will change
[18:59] <compdoc> except you wont know how fast it is
[18:59] <brad100> so if i cut the yellow wire nothing will happen?
[19:00] <taime1> ezra-s: everything is installed, but still getting unknown job
[19:00] <brad100> like the fan wont go 100%?
[19:00] <jaatrox> why choose a debian based os?
[19:00] <compdoc> like the fan will keep running the same speed. try it
[19:00] <brad100> ok
[19:00] <brad100> brb
[19:00] <iceroot> after "kompozer" was removed from the repos, can you recommend another tiny wysiwyg HTML editor? (13.04)
[19:01] <studmeister> Hi everyone. I am having an issue with a new installation on my laptop, which is running an Intel Chipset. I am missing a driver for a game that I play.
[19:01] <iceroot> !details | studmeister
[19:01] <studmeister> When I run the program from a terminal, I get a failed to load driver i965.
[19:02] <studmeister> How do I get this driver? I am running Ubuntu 12.04 Desktop.
[19:02] <ezra-s> jaatrox, http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop http://www.debian.org/intro/why_debian
[19:03] <jaatrox> okay in programming respect how debian is diff from red hat
[19:03] <jaatrox> ?
[19:03] <iceroot> jaatrox: #debian #redhat
[19:03] <k1l> jaatrox: neither debian nor redhat is the topic in here. better ask that in #linux
[19:03] <ezra-s> jaatrox, 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 manager
[19:04] <MonkeyDust> jaatrox  but that's !offtopic here
[19:04] <ezra-s> jaatrox, all main distros have updated compilers/interpreters for many programming languages
[19:04] <DJones> jaatrox: You'll probably get a better response to that type of question if you ask in #ubuntu-offtopic, this channel is only for support issues in how to use Ubuntu or solve issues in running Ubuntu
[19:07] <studmeister> I think I might have figured it out. lol I searched for the Driver in Software Center.
[19:07] <taime1> can anyone tell me how to manually invoke smbd? it will not start from upstart or /etc/init.d
[19:09] <dev_> logout
[19:09] <dev_> #leave
[19:10] <Smiche> if someone still remembers me i found the problem with unity stucking snd ubuntu too when running the game
[19:10] <Smiche> radeon gpu lockup cp stall for more than 10000msec whatever that error means
[19:12] <brad100> @compdoc i cut the yellow wire and now the fan isnt spinning at all xD
[19:12] <Smiche> found on some forums itmightbe a driver issue but ive got fglrx driver gallium 0.4  or smthing
[19:15] <iamhere> i've installed nvidia gpu driver on a hybrid sony vaio laptop and i also did some configuration in /etc/X11/xorg.conf but now my laptop boot but i cant go to login all i see is a blank screen.
[19:16] <iamhere> how can i edit the file?
[19:17] <taime1> iamhere: hybrid? is it an optimus chipset?
[19:17] <iamhere> taime1, i don't know
[19:18] <histo> iamhere: do you still have your installation media around?
[19:18] <taime1> iamhere: what do you mean by hybrid?
[19:18] <iamhere> taime1, it's an nvidia gt 640m LE and intel hd 4000
[19:18] <wildc4rd> possibly a stupid question, is there a free version of Windows I can use for a VM when wine won't work? or do I have to dig out an old copy of XP
[19:18] <taime1> iamhere: thats an optimus. you need to install a special driver from the bumblebee project
[19:19] <DJones> wildc4rd: You'll need to dig out your windows cd
[19:19] <iamhere> taime1,so what should i do know?
[19:19] <taime1> iamhere: which means you will need to either fix or reeinstall your sxisting OS
[19:19] <azazel91> has anybody here ever tried drupal 7
[19:20] <iamhere> taime1,ih nvm i think i got the solution
[19:20] <iamhere> taime1, thanks
[19:20] <taime1> iamhere: im telling you.. there is no driver (besides generic) that is going to work for that chipset besides bumblebee
[19:20] <taime1> but good luck
[19:21] <wilee-nilee> azazel91, This is a support channel not a polling channel, if you have a problem state it.
[19:25] <songkun> hi
[19:25] <songkun> anyone?
[19:27] <mfaroukg> any solution for the software update problems ? I am still on the ubuntu 13.04
[19:27] <wilee-nilee> ! details | mfaroukg
[19:27] <wilee-nilee> mfaroukg, Still on 13.04?
[19:28] <Slart> wildc4rd: nope.. no free versions of windows, it's not really in their business plan to give software away =)
[19:28] <taime1> "Unknown job" when starting smbd. Can someone help me troubleshoot this?
[19:28] <Slart> taime1: can you pastebin the output you get?
[19:28] <Slart> !pastebin | taime1
[19:30] <taime1> Slart: its just "unkown job: smbd"
[19:30] <taime1> Slart: if i use the init script, it tells me "initctl: unknown job: smbd
[19:31] <Slart> taime1: ok, and how do you try to start it?
[19:32] <taime1> slart with /etc/init.d/smbd start and with start smbd
[19:32] <johnjohn101> will a 16 GB usb card be enough to run ubuntu 13.04 with unity?
[19:32] <taime1> Slart: also by manually invoking the script. to no avail
[19:32] <Slart> johnjohn101: yes
[19:32] <taime1> johnjohn101: yes
[19:33] <johnjohn101> 8 GB ok?
[19:33] <taime1> johnjohn101: im on a 16gb ssd as we speak
[19:33] <taime1> johnjohn101: barely but yes
[19:33] <johnjohn101> thanks.
[19:33] <Slart> taime1: I'm not sure if it makes any difference but have you tried using the "service" command instead?
[19:33] <taime1> Slart: I HAVE. SAME THING
[19:33] <taime1> OH SORRY
[19:33] <taime1> sorry for the caps guys
[19:34] <taime1> really
[19:34] <johnjohn101> slart and taime1: tx. I am going to give to father in law to see if it runs on his computer. don't really want to spend much!! hee hee
[19:34] <OerHeks> taime1, with sudo ? >> sudo service smbd restart
[19:35] <taime1> OerHeks: oh yes, of course
[19:36] <Slart> taime1: hmm.. there are no errors in syslog or kern.log?
[19:36] <Tex_Nick> johnjohn101: you would better going with 16
[19:36] <taime1> Slart: i dont actually know.
[19:40] <mfaroukg> wilee-nilee, it is not updating and gives me errors when I "apt-get update" or using the GUI ... my desktop also not responding
[19:41] <Slart> taime1: and just to make sure.. you're spelling everything correctly? no smdb or snbd or such
[19:41] <pwd1234> quit
[19:41] <wilee-nilee> mfaroukg, I would start with running a update in the terminal and paste-binning all the text, the dektop is another matter we can go one problem at a time and details are important.
[19:41] <taime1> Slart: absolutely. ive even uninstalled and reinstalled it
[19:41] <wilee-nilee> desktop*
[19:42] <taime1> Slart: oddly, it was working several weeks ago. I havent changed a thing on this machine, then turned it on to access my shares, and poof.
[19:43] <Slart> taime1: and ls -l /etc/init.d/smbd   gives you  lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 21 okt  5  2012 /etc/init.d/smbd -> /lib/init/upstart-job   or similar?
[19:44] <taime1> Slart: yes
[19:44] <chokotsis> anybody here like to shit in people's mouths?
[19:45] <wilee-nilee> ! ops | chokotsis
[19:45] <chokotsis> I want to tie some guy up to a chair with a hole in the bottom
[19:45] <chokotsis> forcefeed him corn and peanuts
[19:45] <chokotsis> with laxative
[19:45] <chokotsis> then stick my head underneath to wait for the liquid yummies
[19:45] <chokotsis> after that, I would pound the shit out of his browniehole
[19:45] <chokotsis> and finish by slurping out my own cum from his rectum
[19:45] <chokotsis> any takers?
[19:46] <ezra-s> chokotsis, trye #microsoft
[19:46] <taime1> ezra-s: LMAO
[19:46] <taime1> bahahaha
[19:46] <ezra-s> gahh, missed it
[19:46] <taime1> it was funny to those of us who matter
[19:46] <Slart> taime1: what does "sudo initctl -v start smbd" tell you?
[19:46] <taime1> Slart: one sec
[19:47] <taime1> Slart: unkown job
[19:53] <Baribal_> Hi. I'm trying to get a grip on the basics of virtualization. Those Ubuntu cloud images, they're images of volumes on which a minimal Ubuntu hs been freshly installed, and not install media themselves?
[19:55] <ObrienDave> Baribal_::: if you mean a live image, they are the same as a full initial install
[19:56] <Baribal_> Thanks, ObrienDave
[19:56] <ObrienDave> no prob
[19:57] <ShaneO> hello all. Am I able to install windows side by side with linux if linux is the host os?
[19:58] <daftykins> ShaneO: Linux is installed first you mean? yeah
[19:58] <ShaneO> yes daftykins
[19:58] <ShaneO> could you point me to a link for doing so by any chance?
[19:58] <ObrienDave> ShaneO::: yes, you will be using GRUB for dual boot
[19:58] <Slart> taime1: ok, I'm out of ideas.. I've been looking through the upstart documentation and checked where the files are on my system.. nothing really obvious leaps out at the moment.. but ask the channel again or ask in ##linux, there are plenty of people out there with better brains than I have =)
[19:59] <ShaneO> I'm just unsure where to start
[19:59] <aaas> ShaneO when considering win/lin solutions also consider virtual machines, linux in windows, cygwin, or second machine (remote connection or mouse sharing between machines)
[19:59] <ObrienDave> ShaneO::: you should install windows first, because it might over write GRUB
[19:59] <aaas> as well as dual-boot ;)
[20:00] <daftykins> ShaneO: i don't think you really need a guide necessarily. just install Windows, it'll inevitably nuke GRUB so that Linux won't start anymore, then you'll need to reinstall GRUB
[20:00] <ShaneO> aaas yes I tried I wanted to be able to do a little gaming but vmware won't allow me to
[20:00] <Pei> what should be in /etc/apt/sources.list ?
[20:00] <Pei> can someone patebin me theirs
[20:00] <ShaneO> so windows than linux
[20:01] <Pei> if someone would be so kind
[20:01] <ObrienDave> ShaneO::: yes, you should install windows first
[20:01] <ShaneO> ok
[20:01] <ShaneO> thank yo
[20:01] <ShaneO> *you
[20:01] <wilee-nilee> Pei, Take a look here, you can make a list to compare. http://repogen.simplylinux.ch/
[20:02] <ObrienDave> Pei:::  there is a website that will generate a custom list for you. i can't remember it just off hand
[20:02] <Pei> i don't need the gen i need it for someone elses machine i am trying to help them over teamtalk
[20:02] <Pei> their machine is not finding all the packages
[20:02] <wilee-nilee> Installing windows first is not the important part but having windows in the first partitions is.
[20:03] <Pei> we can't get openssh-server to install
[20:03] <wilee-nilee> Pei, You wanted a souces.list make one there.
[20:03] <roasted> Anybody on Ubuntu GNOME know how to adjust the timeout of the notification menu at the bottom of the screen? I'd like it to react faster.
[20:04] <Pei> ok
[20:05] <wilee-nilee> ShaneO, Installing windows first is not the important part but having windows in the first partitions is.
[20:06] <aaas> which happens automatically if you install windows first
[20:06] <aaas> assuming you want grub boot
[20:06] <wilee-nilee> aaas, Sure, however if you have OS's already installed their are other options, reloading the mbr s chlds play.
[20:07] <wilee-nilee> is* childs*
[20:07] <ObrienDave> not for someone that has NOT done it before
[20:07] <aaas> but the easiest way is for him to just put on windows hten linux...that's embroy play
[20:07] <aaas> ;)
[20:07] <aaas> embroy*
[20:07] <aaas> embryo*
[20:07] <aaas> haha
[20:07] <FloodBot1> aaas: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[20:08] <wilee-nilee> ObrienDave, Oh pleae windows or linux one or two commands, with 1000's of web pages how and the IRC.
[20:08] <wilee-nilee> please*
[20:08]  * wilee-nilee adds noobs to ignore
[20:16] <schultza> where is the smbpasswd file now!?
[20:16] <zerai> how do I fix this error: -bash: line 34: warning: setlocale: LC_ALL: cannot change locale (zh_CN.GBK): No such file or directory
[20:18] <histo> zerai: install the chinese locale you are trying to use
[20:18] <histo> !locale | zerai
[20:19] <zerai> histo, it is
[20:19] <histo> zerai: does the output of locale reflect that?
[20:20] <histo> zerai: and locale -a | grep zh_CN.GBK    ? does that have any output?
[20:21] <zerai> histo, nope
[20:22] <histo> zerai: than that locale isn't present.
[20:22] <histo> zerai: sudo locale-gen zh_CN.GBK
[20:23] <zerai> /opt/patcher$ locale-gen zh_CN.GBK
[20:23] <zerai> Generating locales...
[20:23] <zerai>   zh_CN.GBK... up-to-date
[20:23] <zerai> Generation complete.
[20:23] <FloodBot1> zerai: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[20:24] <zerai> histo, that still gives nothing with the previous command
[20:24] <studious> I wonder what verison of WireShark the NSA is using to sniff all US internet traffic
[20:27] <BluesKaj> studious,  probly wrote their own app
[20:27] <zerai> histo, and I just reinstalled zh_CN.GBK
[20:30] <studious> to constantly be recording every second, every ISP 24/7/365  they must have unimaginable Brontobyte in their databases by now
[20:31] <zerai> histo: any ideas?
[20:33] <daftykins> studious: i hope you were joking on Wireshark :>
[20:33] <BronyOkami> Well, hello..
 sadly, I'm not
[20:34] <studious> daftykins: think about it, if you run WireShark on your own network you see all traffic on the gateway
[20:34] <daftykins> studious: DPI is a bit more advanced than that
[20:34] <studious> this is the same strategy the NSA is using, at the data center ISP level for all US traffic
[20:34] <studious> quite scary
[20:34] <johnjohn101> what is DPI?
[20:34] <gordonjcp> Deep Packet Inspection
[20:34] <daftykins> anyway this is all off topic
[20:35] <johnjohn101> as always!!
[20:35] <daftykins> yeah the interesting bits :(

[20:37] <vlad_starkov> Question: I have RAID1 on a server with Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. Just checked `cat /proc/mdstat` and got `md1 : active raid1 sda2[0] sdb2[1](F) 975653696 blocks super 1.2 [2/1] [U_]`. It means I lost 1 disk in my RAID. How can I repair it?
[20:38] <daftykins> vlad_starkov: checked SMART data to see if the disk isn't dead?
[20:38] <vlad_starkov> daftykins: how can I do it properly?
[20:38] <daftykins> what, check SMART data?
[20:39] <vlad_starkov> yep
[20:39] <code-11> Hey, anyone have a problem where ubuntu starts to look like windows 98 and all the file menus dissappear? I think I did sudo apt-get -f install and this happened.
[20:40] <daftykins> vlad_starkov: well run disk utility and see if it can see each individual disk
[20:40] <follower> does anyone know if there is a fix coming for integrated touch pads?
[20:40] <vlad_starkov> daftykins: I'm on Ubuntu Server. So I have just console.
[20:41] <zerai> histo, any ideas how to fix itt? I installed local-gen zh_CN.BGK and it still says it doesn't exists, even though it tells me its's u to date
[20:41] <daftykins> vlad_starkov: i think there's a program smartctl. consider a livecd also
[20:42] <smO3000> .
[20:42] <vlad_starkov> daftykins: ok thanks!
[20:43] <Rarrikins> How can I select a package from the standard Ubuntu repositories rather than a PPA using apt-get?
[20:43] <code-11> I can't even bring up the terminal since the start menu has also dissappeared and ctrl-alt-t seems to do nothing
[20:44] <smO3000> I've been having an issue with sendmail: Up until about 2 days ago I was able to use it with no issues for contact forms and lead catures for joomla sites. Since then I had an issue with the server where I had shut it down and when I had brought it back online I'm no able longer to sendmail.
[20:45] <Sawny> Hi
[20:46] <follower> does anyone know if there is a fix coming for integrated touch pads?

[20:49] <opentrans> I'm having troble getting it switched. I have phpinfo installed on a GoDaddy site and it lists the Apache handler as CGI/FastCGI. Question -- should I see the same in my site when I have successfully switched to CGI?
[20:51] <uhelp> Is there any other clock than the default one?

[20:59] <uhelp> piotrektt: which do I choose for NOTHING on the screen until I click center mouse button or use hotkey to start application?
[21:00] <bgardner> uhelp: What you describe sounds a lot like the xfce layout - you should see if xubuntu works for you.

[21:01] <bigroomsmallhous> just stay with us its not that bad
[21:01] <bgardner> uhelp: You can switch to xubuntu without uninstalling ubuntu, since it's the DE rather than the full OS.
[21:02] <uhelp> bgardner: i will google it -- thank you
[21:02] <bgardner> uhelp: 'sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop', then log out and choose Xubuntu for your session.
[21:02] <piotrektt> uhelp: you can also consider sticking with unity. i did it for two months... and now seriously, can't imagine any kinde of gnomish DE
[21:02] <bgardner> uhelp: But yes, no transitional effects.  Although Unity is not all that bad, really - you just have to adjust.
[21:04] <uhelp> bgardner/piotrektt: I hate wasting time.  Thousands of seconds of transitional effects per year is not my idea of a good time when I could have been on holiday instead of watching animations of windows.

[21:06] <bigroomsmallhous> to be honest i dont know either...

[21:11] <dmiller309> Is there a way to emit a PropertiesChanged signal using Q_PROPERTIES? I'm trying to implement this: http://dbus.freedesktop.org/doc/dbus-specification.html#standard-interfaces-properties, as per http://www.mentby.com/Group/dbus/propertieschanged-signal-take-2.html? This is with the Qt5 DBus interface. I asked this under #ubuntu-app-devel, but no one is there.

[21:15] <dmiller309> Declaring something Q_PROPERTY gives you READ/WRITE methods on it. If you're using QtDBus (which I am), then it makes it easier to export the properties over the DBus interface.

[21:56] <foobArrr> I have a strange problem since upgrading to 13.04. I'm using xfce with compiz. when I have several maximized windows (or several windows with the right top corner in the same spot), somtimes when I click the X to close a window, not the window in the front but a window in the back gets closed. I tried with both gtk-window-decorator and emerald, same result. any ideas?
[22:01] <tonyt> i have a dual boot win 7 and xubuntu set up . xubuntu is installed on a external usb hard drive . can i install ubuntu to that external drive with out messing anything up ?
[22:02] <Baribal_> Does lightning interfere with WLAN? Otherwise my router is performing _badly_.
[22:02] <dmiller309> foobArrr, it sounds like you have a problem with metacity and the way it interacts with compiz.
[22:03] <dmiller309> Have you tried messing with the "window decorations" settings in the CompizConfig Settings Manager?
[22:04] <aarobc> Hey, so I'm on 13.04, and I can't for the life of me figure out how to send the alt key to a program. I have to be able to alt+click, and every time I try that, it moves the window instead.
[22:04] <k1lled> http://postimg.org/image/ojcuh1n0p/full/ - how i can fix that?
[22:05] <foobArrr> dmiller309: 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.
[22:05] <Guest49223> i need help with xubuntu  on youtube all video are fuzzy
[22:06] <ObrienDave> Guest49223*** ask on xubuntu channel please
[22:06] <Guest49223> ok thanks
[22:07] <dmiller309> foobArr Sorry, I'm not too familiar with emerald; that's all I know. If you kill compiz and just run the metacity window decorator, the problem will probably go away, but that's not what you want.
[22:08] <wilee-nilee> tonyt, How does Xubuntu run on a external, a bit slow? WE can't really commeant on additional OS's without details of what is there a screen shot of gparted looking at the external would be helpful.
[22:09] <tonyt> ya it runs a little slow . i was just wanting to install unbuntu . i was just wondering will it wreck the dual boot
[22:09] <tonyt> i guess ill try it and see what happenes
[22:10] <wilee-nilee> tonyt, asking if it will be wrecked without details is not very helpful, multibooting is effected by variables.
[22:11] <tonyt> it dual boots fine now . i dont know what else to provide . xubuntu is installed now on the external . i want to install unbuntu over it
[22:12] <wilee-nilee> tonyt, A screen shot of the external is to much here?
[22:12] <bekks> tonyt: Just install the package "ubuntu-desktop"

[22:18] <Pyru> Hi 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,
[22:18] <Pyru> performance is very bad. By that, I mean visual effects are "slow" and "choppy". Any help is appreciated
[22:18] <k1lled> in windows i have no problem with this
[22:19] <Slart> k1lled: doesn't surprise me.. but run the disk check anyway.. it will probably find some minor thing to fix and then do a normal shutdown.. no hibernation or such
[22:19] <tskorte> Hello, I want to upgrade bluez to 5.6 but have no idea how. I'm thinking about compiling from source but not to sure how to - is there a ppa I can add?
[22:20] <Slart> tskorte: this channel mostly deals with regular vanilla ubuntu... google might be your best bet when it comes to finding specialized repositories
[22:20] <k1lled> what exacly i must check?? never before i have problem with hard
[22:21] <k1lled> 12.04, 12.10 - no problems
[22:21] <k1lled> 13.04 ... and
[22:21] <Slart> k1lled: just a regular disk check.. I've never run windows 8 but in windows 7 I would right click on a drive, select tools and run the disk scan thingy..
[22:22] <tskorte> Slart, yah, I've tried that with no particular luck. What if I rephrase my question: When trying to bring bluetooth dongle up (hciconfig hci0 up) I get a connection timed out error. Anyone experienced this?
[22:22] <tskorte> :)
[22:22] <k1lled> win8 is same. Okey i will
[22:22] <k1lled> after this i will come back here, now restart
[22:22] <Slart> k1lled: ok
[22:23] <Slart> tskorte: bluetooth is black magic if you ask me.. I'm happy it has worked for me in the past but I have no idea how to troubleshoot it. Unless you've got some reason to believe that upgrading will fix your problem I would look elsewhere first
[22:25] <Slart> tskorte: 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 information
[22:25] <tskorte> Slart: 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.
[22:26] <tskorte> Slart, sure, IRC is always the last resort. No use in wasting peoples time when a google search might help.
[22:27] <Dr_willis> askubuntu.com is normally  my first stop these days.
[22:27] <tskorte> Dr_willis, yah. It's amazing!
[22:27] <Slart> tskorte: people on IRC has in some way already decided that they want their time wasted if you ask me =) I wouldn't really suggest googling normally but it seems a bit quiet in here at the moment
[22:28] <Dr_willis> now if people would search askubuntu.com and understand how its supposed to work instead of asking the same question over and over on the site.. ;P
[22:29] <tskorte> I found this workaround on launchpad, as it is a bug apparantly but I'm unsure how to download the ubuntus 'linux-source'. Someone posted a patch on launchpad which should help.
[22:29] <tskorte> Slart, haha, true that.
[22:30] <Dr_willis> bbl
[22:32] <k1lled> again dont work, i still cant open my hard
[22:32] <k1lled> same error
[22:33] <Slart> k1lled: did you find any errors when you did the disk check?
[22:33] <k1lled> Slart:  - nope
[22:34] <k1lled> at windows, all is good
[22:34] <k1lled> work perf, no error in check
[22:35] <Slart> k1lled: and you're sure you did a normal shutdown.. no hibernation, suspend or such?
[22:35] <k1lled> yes, shut down, when my laptop was down, i click my power off button, to start
[22:36] <Slart> k1lled: how fast does it boot up? are your programs still running when it comes back?
[22:37] <k1lled> i cant undarstand a quest, my english is bad..
[22:38] <Slart> k1lled: no worries.. there are two ways to shut down a computer.. normal (full) shutdown.. everything is killed and power turned off.. then there is hibernation (kind of like some animals do in winter) where everything is saved to the hard drive and when you start up the computer again it loads everything and your programs are still running, documents in office are still open and such
[22:38] <KeyboardNotFound> can i run mac os app on ubuntu ?
[22:38] <ColdRain> KeyboardNotFound: Nope
[22:39] <Slart> k1lled: you have to do a full shutdown.. not hibernation  when you exit windows .. otherwise you'll get the error you described
[22:39] <k1lled> Slart:  i know what is hibernate and shut down, and what is diff.
[22:39] <holstein> KeyboardNotFound: nothing is preventing any application from being made to run on linux/ubuntu.. ask the developers if it will run on ubuntu
[22:39] <k1lled> and i never use this option hibernate - this is most stupid thing
[22:40] <Slart> k1lled: it might be called something like "fast restart" in windows.. it might also be enabled by default
[22:40] <k1lled> dude i know how to shut down my pc
[22:40] <k1lled> and i dont know what is the problem
[22:40] <k1lled> but
[22:40] <k1lled> my windows have no problem
[22:40] <k1lled> at 12.04 and 12.10 no problems too, but 13.04 cant mount this

[22:43] <studmeister> Hi 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] <holstein> k1lled: what exatly used to work in 12.04 that is not working in 13.04? what is not mounting?
[22:43] <Slart> k1lled: then I don't really know what could cause this.. sorry
[22:43] <k1lled> holstein:  moment
[22:43] <z_-> Slart: If i try "use Ubuntu" from the disk, is this a good way to verify?
[22:43] <k1lled> http://postimg.org/image/ojcuh1n0p/full/ - look...
[22:44] <holstein> z_-: better battery life compared to what?
[22:44] <k1lled> Slart:  told me the problem come from win8, bad shutdown
[22:44] <z_-> holstein: Win7/8.
[22:44] <k1lled> but i know how to shut down
[22:44] <Slart> z_-: 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] <Slart> z_-: yes, running the live ubuntu thing will at least tell you if some things will work
[22:45] <k1lled> z_-: FN buttons will work, but battery will work same time like windows
[22:45] <holstein> k1lled: 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] <holstein> actually, battery life can be much worse in linux, due to driver support, typically
[22:45] <Slart> z_-: 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 time
[22:45] <k1lled> how i can mount it read only
[22:46] <z_-> Slart: Tweakings hard to do?
[22:46] <holstein> k1lled: i would read the message in the image you linked me, and try what is suggests.. ro
[22:46] <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] <Slart> z_-: not really hard but lots of trial and error.. creating small scripts and such.. it takes some patience and a lot of rebooting =)
[22:47] <z_-> Slart: fuuuuuuu
[22:47] <Slart> well.. you're welcome I guess..
[22:47] <holstein> z_-: 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/ubuntu
[22:48] <studmeister> Hi everyone. I am trying to find an easy way to install the i965 driver for my laptop. I am running Ubuntu 12.04
[22:49] <z_-> holstein: Thanks. I will try with the trial thingy see how it is first. It can't really be worse tbh ^^
[22:49] <holstein> studmeister: intel drivers are just included.. what the issue?
[22:49] <studmeister> When I go to run a program, it is telling me that it can not find the i965 driver.
[22:49] <holstein> it?
[22:50] <k1lled> holstein: ...... mmm
[22:50] <holstein> studmeister: what is "it"
[22:50] <holstein> studmeister: if you have that *exact* message, please share
[22:50] <studmeister> It's Singularity Viewer.
[22:51] <studmeister> Here is a link to what is said in the terminal window... http://paste.ubuntu.com/5781939/
[22:51] <Slart> ter: if you have that *exact* message, please share

[22:51] <Kr> hi
[22:51] <Slart> oops.. sorry
[22:51] <Kr> hello.
[22:51] <holstein> studmeister: you dont think its a bug in the program? "The program 'singularity-do-not-run-directly' received an X Window System error.
[22:51] <studmeister> Its ok Slart. =)
[22:52] <studmeister> It does it on the Firestorm Viewer as well as the SecondLife Viewer as well, so I think it is missing the driver.
[22:53] <Kr> ulan
[22:53] <Kr> yarak kafalýlar
[22:54] <holstein> studmeister: what driver are you using? in a terminal lscpi -v ..you can share that via pastebin if you need
[22:56] <foobArrr> dmiller309: 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] <studmeister> The terminal is telling me it can't find the lscpi command.
[22:57] <holstein> studmeister: lspci .. sorry
[22:58] <studmeister> Ok, I figured that out... Here's the patebin. http://paste.ubuntu.com/5781949/
[22:59] <studmeister> it looks like it is using the 915 driver.
[23:01] <holstein> studmeister: looks like you are using the driver you should be using.. have you tried xswat ppa?
[23:02] <studmeister> No. I am brand new, and trying to learn it.
[23:02] <holstein> studmeister: where are you getting these applications that are failing?
[23:03] <studmeister> From their websites, they are not listed in the Application Center
[23:04] <holstein> studmeister: then, you need to ask them for help.. there is nothing "wrong" with ubuntu.. you are using the driver you are meant to use
[23:04] <studmeister> Ok, thank you.

[23:25] <SaxX> hi
[23:26] <SaxX> anybody available to tell me why i can't access to phpmyadmin
[23:26] <SaxX> ?
[23:26] <wilee-nilee> !details | SaxX
[23:27] <^Mike> What should I use to stream media (audio and video) to my andoid (on my home lan)
[23:27] <SaxX> sorry
[23:28] <SaxX> so i am under Ubuntu 12.04 TLS
[23:28] <SaxX> i have just installed lamp
[23:29] <SaxX> everything remain good except the fact i can't access to localhost/phpmyadmin
[23:30] <^Mike> Did you install phpmyadmin?
[23:30] <wilee-nilee> ^Mike, I think you can do that with airdroid from google play
[23:30] <^Mike> sweeeeeeet, I'll check it out
[23:31] <^Mike> my alternative is to try sshfs or something, but that's probably not the best idea :)
[23:31] <SaxX> yes i do ^Mike
[23:31] <^Mike> SaxX: and what happens when you navigate to the phpmyadmin URL?
[23:32] <SaxX> and when i type head /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf
[23:32] <OerHeks> SaxX, how do you start myphpadmin ? <yourrIP>/phpmyadmin ?
[23:32] <SaxX> i can't see the alias that it's made
[23:32] <SaxX> localhost/phpmyadmin
[23:33] <Gabboz> ^Mike, take a peek at subsonic too
[23:33] <^Mike> wilee-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 :X
[23:34] <Gabboz> airdroid isn't what you want(i use that app).
[23:34] <^Mike> yeah, subsonic looks like it'll cover me for audio
[23:34] <wilee-nilee> ^Mike, Airdroid is a wireless communication, I thought I saw a streaming option.
[23:34] <Gabboz> ^Mike,  it does video too
[23:35] <^Mike> Gabboz: subsonic does?
[23:35] <Gabboz> subsonic transcodes(audio/video) on the fly.
[23:35] <Gabboz> i think mencode is the main app behind all that
[23:38] <^Mike> awesome
[23:39] <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 tho
[23:41] <Gabboz> ^Mike, its called supersonic
[23:41] <^Mike> yeah, I just found it
