| lordcirth | Why does fuse give Permission denied when I'm logged in as a Guest account, and how can I fix this? | 00:16 |
| tyrog | Coburn: He is the OP here, he should be smart | 00:16 |
| Coburn | harris: look up mencoder | 00:16 |
| Coburn | or avconvert | 00:16 |
| harris | which one | 00:16 |
| harris | is free | 00:16 |
| Coburn | both | 00:16 |
| Coburn | if it's a legit dvd (not torrented) then you'll need to rip it | 00:16 |
| harris | which is faster/better | 00:17 |
| Coburn | and sadly there's no linux tools that will take off the DRM on the DVD | 00:17 |
| harris | can we pm | 00:17 |
| Coburn | harris: it's all up to your hardware | 00:17 |
| Coburn | I don't do PM support, I'm ill and have enough tabs open as it is | 00:17 |
| Coburn | I can give you advice and tips tough | 00:18 |
| harris | ok | 00:18 |
| OerHeks | a 90 minut dvd takes 6 hours work :-D | 00:18 |
| Coburn | through* | 00:18 |
| Coburn | OerHeks: yeah, because of damn DRM | 00:18 |
| Coburn | SecuROM / Disney Anti-Copy / etc | 00:18 |
| harris | would it be easier in windows? | 00:18 |
| Coburn | yes | 00:18 |
| Coburn | you could use DVDFab | 00:18 |
| Dr_willis | Coburn, dvdfab works in wine and can remove a lot of them ;) | 00:18 |
| Coburn | ^ | 00:18 |
| usercheck_ | mnemon: yes sir | 00:19 |
| Coburn | heard about that actually | 00:19 |
| funjon | handbrake is your friend. | 00:19 |
| Dr_willis | seemed to work very well the little i used it., | 00:19 |
| Dr_willis | handbreak will NOT remove drm/protection/encryption | 00:19 |
| harris | sorry | 00:19 |
| Dr_willis | then theres the new generation of extra protection on top of that normal decss encryption | 00:20 |
| fabioluciano | Anybody here uses xfce instead unity? | 00:20 |
| OerHeks | "#1 DVD Player for Android: MoboPlayer" you have not searched for android apps, have you ? | 00:20 |
| Dr_willis | ive had legally bought DVD movies that will not play in legal DVD players due to their extra protection | 00:20 |
| funjon | Dr_willis: really? I rip direct from DVD to mp4 with handbrake. It uses libdvdcss. | 00:20 |
| harris | Dr_willis, or Coburn or OerHeks anyone have a youtube guiode | 00:20 |

| Coburn | the thing is | 00:20 |
| Coburn | the DRM guys are one step ahead | 00:21 |
| Coburn | of the devs | 00:21 |
| harris | i have 3 dvd from library | 00:21 |
| Coburn | and besides, "YOU CANNOT HACK OUR DRM OR RISK IMPRISONMENT" | 00:21 |
| harris | want to put them on my tablet | 00:21 |
| Coburn | yep | 00:21 |
| Coburn | you mihgt be better off to use DVDFab | 00:21 |
| Coburn | Actually, do this | 00:22 |
| harris | what will that do? | 00:22 |
| Coburn | Removes protection, resulting in files like *.vobs | 00:22 |
| Coburn | Rip the DVD to HDD, then use mencoder/avconvert to transcode it into tablet format ;) | 00:22 |
| harris | what type of file do i need mp4? | 00:22 |
| Dr_willis | funjon, that wont work for the new protection. and handbreak dosent include that decss stuff. i definatly seen in their help/docs where they dont support it (they could giving a wink and blind eye to how easy it is to add.. but they cant get sued for that) | 00:23 |
| Coburn | make and model of your tablet? | 00:23 |
| Coburn | Dr_willis: you're right | 00:23 |
| OerHeks | harris, or www.videolan.org/vlc/download-android.html | 00:23 |
| Coburn | libcss hasn't been updated in yonks i think | 00:23 |
| harris | samsung galaxy tab 2 10.1 gtp5113 | 00:23 |

| Coburn | erek: | 00:29 |
| Coburn | you could roll back | 00:29 |
| Coburn | :) | 00:29 |
| erek | how? | 00:29 |
| Coburn | google "ubuntu roll back packages" | 00:29 |
| Dr_willis | dvdfab can rip straight to an video file.. or you can make a de-protected disk image | 00:29 |
| Coburn | basically, you just say "Ubuntu, I want this package at this version, nothing more, nothing less" | 00:29 |
| Coburn | the free trial of dvdfab will put a watermark on it | 00:30 |
| Coburn | but it's see through | 00:30 |
| Dr_willis | actually the demo period wont. :) and when it expires.. you delete your .wine directory and reinstall it... | 00:30 |
| Dr_willis | for another 30 days | 00:30 |
| Dr_willis | or so i hear.... :P | 00:30 |
| Dr_willis | they also have a free deprotect on the fly feature that lets other rippers get past the annoying new protection. but im not sure how well that woirks with wine | 00:31 |
| Dr_willis | but its not as up to date as the paid stuff | 00:31 |

| harris | because i am thinking about making a digital copy of some dvds | 00:53 |
| harris | anyone got some good guides | 00:53 |
| Snype | turn them into compressed images | 00:54 |
| Dr_willis | harris, with newer disks - they Can contain protection that you will need to use tools like 'dvdfab' to get around | 00:54 |
| Dr_willis | harris, with older disks. ive used k9copy and handbreak or other tools to make DVD -> video files | 00:54 |
| lordcirth | Is there a practical way to reset a user's home dir each login, other than Guest-session? Because guest-session doesn't work very well | 00:56 |

| craigbass1976 | Anyone had the experience where firefox won't go to web pages anymore, then after a restart is fine? How about where it takes the whole network down with it? I was pinging in a terminal once things went awry, kept getting "host unreachable" (this didn't matter if I pinged google or something on 192.168.x.x) shut FF off, turned it back on, and things were fine. I still got the unreachable until FF starts again. | 00:57 |
| Snype | there are so many ways to do it lordcirth | 00:57 |

I can't even fucking change my permissions, even in recovery mode or with the Live CD because "users" don't exist when the CD is inserted.... I can't change permissions on shit and the fact that ubuntu sets up one user as root is great but WHAT IF YOU DELETE THAT USER. then you have no fucking permissions and can't get them back.

| craigbass1976 | Snype, but my own laptop (the other is my wife's) is fine. The machine dropped connection when someone else owned it, but I wan't able to test well as they were an hour away. They gave up and gave me the laptop. | 00:59 |
| Snype | craigbass1976, i feel you but it can be so many things | 01:00 |
| Snype | and frankly i wouldnt bet on firefox | 01:00 |
| lordcirth | Snype: Yes, but what's a safe way to trigger the script? If it's on logout, it won't run if the machine loses power. If on login, it's going to overwrite stuff while it's starting. | 01:01 |
| Snype | lordcirth, on startup | 01:01 |
| Snype | overwrite what stuff? | 01:01 |
| lordcirth | Snype: On boot? But then if they log out, and log back in, it will not have wiped | 01:01 |
| Snype | on login then my friend :) | 01:01 |
| lordcirth | Snype: Overwriting the home directory while they're logging in? Does Ubuntu do login in parallel, or could it wait until cp finishes? | 01:02 |
| wilee-nilee | craigbass1976, Any details missing here like proxies? | 01:02 |
| Snype | cp will happen after login | 01:02 |
| lordcirth | Snype: Then settings will be loaded from before, won't they? | 01:03 |
| Snype | oh you even want to wipe the . folders? | 01:03 |
| Snype | you basically want a fresh login everytime right? | 01:03 |
| Snype | two recommendations a modded guest session or a live session like one from a live cd or usb | 01:04 |
| Flannel | lordcirth: Do it on logout normally. Also do it on power-up. | 01:05 |

| lordcirth | Flannel: Good idea, that would cover both situations. | 01:07 |
| Snype | login would cover both situations | 01:07 |
| Snype | programming on both situations will cause problems | 01:07 |

| craigbass1976 | pyasi, can you ping 8.8.8.8 ? | 01:07 |
| Snype | 8.8.8.8 is google dns | 01:07 |
| lordcirth | pyasi: If the router's homepage loads, but not the internet, it is quite likely a router or DSL problem | 01:08 |
| Snype | no way you cannot ping that craigbass1976 | 01:08 |
| Flannel | Snype: are you just rambling nonsense now? | 01:08 |
| craigbass1976 | Snype, eh? | 01:08 |

| raedov | yes make a startup usb | 01:21 |
| Peyam | raedov: google " usb stick ubuntu" | 01:22 |
| Peyam | the first one will give you the solution | 01:22 |
| wilee-nilee | nbubuntu, I don't, I think its a matter of personal choice really. | 01:22 |
| Peyam | nbubuntu: No. Im pretty sure about what I do . I never check | 01:22 |
| nbubuntu | wilee-nilee Peya: what's the choice for crc32 , sha , md5 ? | 01:23 |
| nbubuntu | wilee-nilee Peya: i mean , for normal picture files , which one is suitable ? | 01:23 |
| raedov | thank you wilee , Peyam | 01:23 |
| wilee-nilee | nbubuntu, I believe sha is better them md5, not sure of the other | 01:23 |
| Peyam | I dunno. | 01:23 |
| bencc | I'm trying to output avconv to stdout but it saves the result and output it only when I'm stopping the stream | 01:23 |
| bencc | any way to make it output in real time? | 01:23 |
| nbubuntu | wilee-nilee :for picture files ? | 01:24 |
| wilee-nilee | nbubuntu, No idea really. | 01:25 |
| wilee-nilee | I rarely use any hash, I have just not had problems with the basic stuff I do. | 01:25 |
| lordcirth | nbubuntu: sha256 is more secure than md5, but md5 is faster. If you're not checking for security, just for bad downloads, use md5. It's fast and standard | 01:25 |
| nbubuntu | wilee-nilee : ok , i am actually finding a hash checker for a list of picture after transfer. | 01:25 |
| Peyam | Does any one know how I can get rid on " blbalabl left the room" etc in Pidgin? | 01:25 |
| Peyam | ff | 01:26 |
| nbubuntu | lordcirth : nah , not security , just some picture and recorded mpeg | 01:26 |
| lordcirth | nbubuntu: ya, so just use MD5 | 01:26 |
| hanasaki | would someone please paste the output of "ls -al /var/log/syslog" please / looking for the id/group | 01:26 |
| Peyam | it makes me crazy | 01:28 |
| Peyam | How do I get rid of all these? | 01:28 |
| Dr_willis | Peyam, i think thats a pidgin FAQ. :) theres a plugin to get rid of them | 01:29 |
| syntroPi | is it possible to get rid of that apport madness? its always popping up and crashed my whole gnome-shell : program xy crashed, apport-gtk crashed, apport-gtk crashed and so on | 01:29 |
| Dr_willis | I find using a app designed for IRC works better then an IM app that can also do irc | 01:29 |
| syntroPi | i always have to KILL -9 that stupid apport | 01:29 |
| hanasaki | what id/group owns your /var/log/syslog file? | 01:29 |
| Flannel | hanasaki: syslog adm | 01:30 |
| Dr_willis | syntax, clear out the apport logs and it will only report on newly crashed apps..or just disable it totally.. askubuntu.com has info on how to disable it | 01:30 |
| Peyam | Dr_willis: do you possibly know the name of the plugin or what ever they call it? Clearing plugin? so I know what I should google | 01:30 |
| Dr_willis | Peyam, its in the default plugins last i looked.. allready installed. check your settings | 01:30 |
| Dr_willis | just not enabled | 01:30 |
| hanasaki | Flannel: thanks.. hmm mine is Debian-exim thoughts? | 01:30 |
| th0r | Peyam: it is join/part I think | 01:31 |
| Flannel | hanasaki: What version of Ubuntu are you running? | 01:31 |
| hanasaki | Flannel: Ubuntu 13.04 | 01:31 |
| Peyam | no it is enable. | 01:31 |
| Peyam | should I restart this thing? | 01:31 |
| hadifarnoud | I'm getting constant high traffic. I contacted Linode and they confirmed its DoS attack. how can I see what type of requests I'm getting? it's like 5MB/s all the time. | 01:31 |
| hanasaki | Flannel: what controls what rsyslogd sets the owner too? | 01:31 |
| Flannel | hanasaki: Wait, is Debian-exim the owner, or group? | 01:32 |
| hanasaki | Flannel: owner | 01:32 |
| Flannel | hanasaki: Whats the group? | 01:32 |
| ShippD | hello everyone just a question just did a upgrade to 13.10 and now when i launch chrome i get two icons one normall the other is a icon with a question mark on it any ideas would be great | 01:32 |
| hanasaki | adm | 01:32 |
| Flannel | hanasaki: And, what makes you think something is awry? | 01:32 |
| hanasaki | Flannel: does it match what you have? | 01:33 |
| Peyam | worked. thanks Dr_willis th0r | 01:33 |
| Flannel | hanasaki: yes, "syslog adm" is owner/group, but on a different version of Ubuntu. What makes you think yours is wrong? | 01:33 |
| hanasaki | Flannel: counterintuitive for the mail id to own syslog | 01:34 |
| chaz68 | Anyone good at LAMP Setup on debian / ubuntu here? Have a security error with ajaxplorer I can't seem to figure out. | 01:34 |
| Peyam | åhh many years ago.. | 01:35 |
| [jys] | does anyone know why apt-get claims php 5.3.6 is the latest version, even though i've added ppa:ondrej/php5 , which has 5.4.17? | 01:35 |
| Peyam | hmm | 01:35 |
| Peyam | is it the right ppa | 01:36 |
| Flannel | [jys]: did you apt-get update after adding it? | 01:36 |
| [jys] | yes i did Flannel, and I believe so, Peyam | 01:36 |
| Peyam | wierd | 01:36 |
| hanasaki | Flannel: ? | 01:36 |
| partounian | Does anyone know how to install some nice GUI onto 10.04 or is it not possible? It would be awesome for it look more like 12.04 or any newer Unity/Gnome. | 01:36 |
| Peyam | but does the ppa give the latest? | 01:36 |
| [jys] | not sure exactly what you mean, Peyam.. the ppa i added says 5.4.17, which is later (probably not latest) than the version i have, which is 5.3.6 | 01:37 |
| Peyam | hmm | 01:37 |
| Flannel | hanasaki: I agree that's a little strange. | 01:38 |
| Peyam | when you do apt-get update && apt-get upgrade. dont you get any error? | 01:38 |
| Peyam | partounian: you can see gnome-look.org | 01:38 |
| [jys] | no errors, Peyam | 01:38 |
| Flannel | partounian: We're talking about the "php5" package, correct? | 01:38 |
| [jys] | oh... that's weird. it seems that the ondrej ppa isn't in the update list, even though its in my software sources | 01:39 |
| partounian | Flannel: I'm pretty sure you meant to type [jys] correct? | 01:39 |
| [jys] | and if so, Flannel, then yes, the php5 package | 01:40 |
| hadifarnoud | I'm getting constant high traffic. I contacted Linode and they confirmed its DoS attack. how can I see what type of requests I'm getting? it's like 5MB/s all the time. | 01:40 |
| Flannel | partounian: I did. | 01:40 |
| [jys] | i'm not sure why that source isn't being recognized by apt-get, though | 01:40 |
| lhx | hadifarnoud: put a packet sniffer on the server and capture the network traffic | 01:40 |
| Flannel | [jys]: pastebin `apt-cache policy php5` but if that PPA isn't being recognized, I think I know that that command will tell us that it's not there. | 01:40 |
| hadifarnoud | lhx tcpdump? then what? | 01:40 |
| lhx | hadifarnoud: you can also shut down all of your services other than maybe SSH and see which one stops the DDOS | 01:41 |
| lhx | hadifarnoud: or rather, shut down your services one by one and see what happens | 01:41 |
| [jys] | yes it seems you're right, Flannel - http://pastebin.com/4P687heH | 01:41 |
| Flannel | [jys]: alright, please pastebin your sources.list, plus any files in sources.list.d/ | 01:42 |
| hadifarnoud | lhx: how can I monitor traffic in real time? | 01:42 |
| partounian | Peyam: Thank you! | 01:43 |
| lhx | hadifarnoud: any ideas 'why' you're being ddosd | 01:43 |
| [jys] | Flannel - sources.list contents http://pastebin.com/jf2hAgDV | 01:43 |
| [jys] | and sources.list.d contents http://pastebin.com/Fzfpm3qb | 01:43 |
| lhx | hadifarnoud: you can probably use wireshark | 01:44 |
| [jys] | i forgot to mention i'm using mint, but that wouldn't be a problem since it's based on Ubuntu, i'm assuming | 01:44 |
| hadifarnoud | lhx: spammers got into my server. I blocked them. then ddos started | 01:44 |
| lhx | hadifarnoud: any idea on 'how' they got in? | 01:44 |
| Ari-Yang | I have a question, what does it mean when conflict is in italics? http://gyazo.com/e925ff753237892781e3183b1476ebf4 | 01:44 |
| hadifarnoud | lhx: I have no idea. I wasn't even relay | 01:44 |
| Ari-Yang | (that's a screen shot image) | 01:44 |
| hadifarnoud | I disabled SSH access and postfix. then it all stopped | 01:44 |
| Flannel | [jys]: uhm, sorry, the contents of the stuff in the folder sources.list.d/ (cat sources.list.d/*) Also, this is godawfully ugly, and no, we don't support linux mint. So we should make this quick. | 01:45 |
| lhx | hadifarnoud: in the future, move your SSH to a different port than 22 | 01:45 |
| hadifarnoud | lhx: it's now just PKI and IP | 01:45 |
| lhx | that cuts down so many attempted security threats | 01:45 |
| Flannel | hadifarnoud, lhx: it's easier/better to just install something like denyhosts | 01:46 |
| lhx | hadifarnoud: that too... | 01:46 |
| hadifarnoud | Flannel: so I should remove denyhosts now? after changing port | 01:46 |
| Flannel | hadifarnoud: What? No. Using both is fine. | 01:46 |
| Ari-Yang | anybody know what it means when a dependency that causes confliction is in italics of synaptic package manager? | 01:47 |
| hadifarnoud | I enabled mod_security and mod_evasive too. most attacks come from port 80 | 01:47 |
| === root is now known as Guest68899 | ||
| hadifarnoud | lhx: how can I disable IP access to port 80? if you enter my IP it goes to my site as well. cloudflare doesn't work if they can access my site via IP | 01:48 |
| [jys] | Flannel: http://pastebin.com/f6JNWGrJ | 01:48 |
| Flannel | [jys]: and can you please pastebin the output of `sudo apt-get update` | 01:49 |

| ehhh | running 12.04 now and it's awesome, slight lag, does anyone else have problems with .mkv files? i tried a fairly light one (311mb) in vlc and it just skimmed through randomly and didn't work. . does anyone know if this is related to the hardware or the os? | 01:59 |
| OerHeks | ehhh or the .mkv, who knows? | 02:00 |
| syntroPi | ehhh, tried mplayer or totem yet? | 02:00 |
| thecodeischaos | im pretty sure i have played mkvs well enough | 02:00 |
| thecodeischaos | probably your hardware? | 02:00 |
| thecodeischaos | specs? | 02:00 |
| ehhh | nah the file is fine, i've watched it on this laptop, sntro no i haven't gotten that far yet :P | 02:00 |
| Peyam | RndmGoi: AMD? yes I have one of them I gues | 02:00 |
| syntroPi | well mkv is just a container right? so it would mean there can be any codes and any number of weird streams ans headers inside | 02:01 |
| ehhh | really old stationary computer, been having a fit over trying to install the os itself all day :P | 02:01 |
| syntroPi | meaning mkv != mkv | 02:01 |
| RndmGoi | i'm having problems finding drivers for a radeon hd 6870 that are compatible with ubuntu 13.04, the last drivers i downloaded from AMD wouldn't allow me to make administrative changes to my display settings | 02:01 |
| ehhh | yeah it's not that important for me to if .mkv working but i will try mplayer and totem to see if it can be done on this computer. most my vids are in .avi or .mp4 anyway | 02:02 |
| sasha- | O hai | 02:03 |
| syntroPi | ehhh, you also can try to enable libva and hw backend (like vdpau for nvidia) if your cpu is less powerfull than your gpu | 02:03 |
| sasha- | can someone tell me how I can filter in Wireshark so that I only see http requests that end with a *.m3u8 | 02:03 |
| sasha- | ? | 02:03 |
| deepu | hello | 02:03 |
| deepu | can any one help me | 02:04 |
| deepu | ?? | 02:04 |
| ehhh | syntroPi: what's the easiest way to check my specs on ubuntu? i haven't used this for years | 02:04 |
| syntroPi | ehhh, not sure what you mean by that | 02:04 |
| syntroPi | ehhh, you can open a terminal and incoke "top" to see how its performing | 02:05 |
| ehhh | like in windows you just click preferences on my computer to get up processor speed, ram, etc | 02:05 |
| syntroPi | ehhh, cat /proc/cpuinfo | 02:05 |
| syntroPi | ehhh, cat /proc/meminfo | 02:05 |
| sasha- | so, um anyone? | 02:05 |

| kalakj | SonikkuAmerica: THANKS | 02:08 |
| SonikkuAmerica | kalakj: You're welcome | 02:08 |
| Peyam | deepu: no its not possible! | 02:08 |
| wilee-nilee | deepu, Browsers can save that info, however not all websites allow a autolog. | 02:08 |
| Peyam | it is not everna ubuntu issue | 02:08 |
| === jack is now known as Guest51918 | ||
| syntroPi | deepu, maybe you can watch the http request and rebuild it with a curl, or wget script? | 02:09 |
| deepu | in windows their wasa java script which allows the automatic logon when i bootup my system any thing like that in ubuntu ] | 02:09 |
| syntroPi | deepu, look for nodejs stuff mabye? | 02:09 |
| deepu | their is a option in the edit connection | 02:10 |
| deepu | can i use it for auto login | 02:10 |
| wilee-nilee | deepu, If you are using firefox with no flash blocking it will ask you if you want to save the info, a double click next time loads it. | 02:10 |
| Peyam | it will not work untill he opens the webbroser | 02:11 |
| deepu | dude wilee i know that iam asking any other way so that i dont want to login everytime it automaticvally connectd\] | 02:11 |
| Peyam | you can save it but it will not automaticly connect. you must press on "log in" button anyway | 02:11 |
| somsip | deepu: This isn't really a support issue. There are lots of conversations here that might help you though http://is.gd/ekmKk0 | 02:11 |
| syntroPi | there is so many programs and scripts that can speak http, almost difficult to choose one | 02:12 |
| wilee-nilee | deepu, Cool, best of luck. ;) | 02:12 |
| ehhh | do i have to use the sidebar / dash search to launch apps? (not counting terminal launch) like in older ubuntu they used to be sorted in folders on the menu | 02:13 |
| Peyam | That's why I dont use ubuntu anymore becouse of unity | 02:14 |
| Peyam | xubuntu is the best | 02:14 |
| ehhh | xfce is the greatest no doubt, can i put app icons on the desktop though? | 02:15 |
| Peyam | in xubuntu? | 02:16 |
| Peyam | yes | 02:16 |
| wilee-nilee | !tmi | Peyam ;) | 02:17 |

| sweettea | deepu: i think theres a font library/package you can install | 02:19 |
| Buggzy1011 | hi | 02:20 |
| deepu | where i can find it | 02:20 |
| deepu | AND how to install it | 02:20 |
| Peyam | ehhh: never had problems | 02:21 |
| Peyam | deepu: google! | 02:21 |
| devish | deepu: did you tried google | 02:21 |
| ehhh | good stuff . . btw concerning .mkv, i just tried it in mplayer and this is REALLY something else compared to vlc | 02:22 |
| pyasi | guys, no ping... | 02:22 |
| crazyhorse | I did an apt-get update/upgrade and now my resolution has a max res of some crappy 1024*768 for both my monitors.. any idea what the fix for this is? | 02:22 |
| ehhh | i thought my computer was being slow, turns out it was vlc :P | 02:23 |
| Peyam | haha | 02:23 |
| Peyam | ehhh: is it better? | 02:23 |
| Peyam | mplayer? | 02:23 |
| Peyam | the first thing I did with my dist was removing mplayer | 02:24 |
| ehhh | Peyam: yes it runs way smoother, i won't say for the xfce version i'm using smplayer and it's an extreme improvement, it was skipping frames in vlc and now it's smooth as . . i'd give it a try | 02:25 |
| devish | crazyhorse: how you got this name | 02:25 |
| Peyam | Do you have a stone-age computer? | 02:26 |
| ehhh | yup, i think it's about | 02:26 |
| Ari-Yang | ehhh, I recommend using mpv | 02:26 |
| ehhh | 7 years :P | 02:26 |
| Ari-Yang | a fork of mplayer/mplayer2 that's up-to-date and active | 02:27 |
| Peyam | what's wrong with vlc? | 02:27 |
| Ari-Yang | (you can install it with mplayer/mplayer2 being installed cuz the bin is in a diff place) | 02:27 |
| crazyhorse | devish: this is crazy horse one-eight, have individuals with weaopons | 02:27 |
| Peyam | I ve used it since.. I dunno ever | 02:27 |
| Ari-Yang | vlc.... yeah that player is horrible for me on linux and on windows lol | 02:27 |
| ehhh | Ari-Yang: i'll give it a shot :) | 02:27 |
| Peyam | why is it horrible? | 02:28 |
| Ari-Yang | @ ehhh http://mpv.io/ | 02:28 |
| Ari-Yang | good luck | 02:28 |
| Ari-Yang | @ Peyam tried playing 10-bit stuff and VLC couldn't play it properly. | 02:28 |
| Ari-Yang | I use mpc-hc on windows and mpv on ubuntu | 02:28 |
| Ari-Yang | anyway, not sure if this is the right chan to talk about this stuff, should be discussed on #ubuntu-offtopic | 02:28 |
| Peyam | does it read all formats (or many of them)? | 02:28 |
| crazyhorse | devish: http://www.collateralmurder.com/en/transcript.html | 02:29 |
| Ari-Yang | Peyam, I guess? mplayer/mplyaer2/mpv plays mostly all formats just fine | 02:29 |
| Ari-Yang | Peyam, are you looking to install mplayer/2/mpv or vlc? | 02:29 |
| Peyam | hmmm and is it light weighter than vlc | 02:29 |
| Peyam | ? | 02:29 |
| Ari-Yang | yes | 02:29 |
| pyasi | guys, no ping... | 02:29 |
| Peyam | wel I do have vlc | 02:30 |
| Peyam | but im just a little bit chocked that people think there is something better :D | 02:30 |
| wilee-nilee | nubcake, This from the live session? | 02:30 |
| Ari-Yang | if you are, I recommend mpv (keep in mind that all mplayer media player family is run under terminal, except you can get front-end gui for mplayer and mplayer2 like smplayer/smplayer2 or gnome-mplayer) | 02:30 |
| Peyam | hmm I should remember that! that VLC loads after 5 sec when I wana see a movie | 02:31 |
| Peyam | maybe I should say good bye to it as I did to irssi | 02:31 |
| ehhh | Ari-Yang: so mpv is basically a mplayer build and smplayer for example will use mpv as *kernel*? (if i used that word correctly) | 02:32 |
| thecodeischaos | vlc plays 1080p movies the instant i click them | 02:32 |
| thecodeischaos | i mean 720p actually.. not tried 1080p yet | 02:32 |
| Ari-Yang | ehhh, current front end gui do not work with mpv, only mplayer.... Like smplayer2 is a gui for mplayer2, smplayer is a front end for mplayer | 02:32 |
| Peyam | so what is the best media player now? | 02:32 |
| crazyhorse | hey guys.. both my monitors used to work but since an update they are now only loading in low-resolution .. i've resintalled ubuntu desktop and rebooted but that didn't work | 02:32 |
| Ari-Yang | to use mpv you run it in terminal, for e.g. mpv path-to-vid-file-here then it will play | 02:33 |
| === ryang__ is now known as ryang_ | ||
| Peyam | I like to right click and press Play | 02:33 |
| Ari-Yang | !best | 02:33 |
| ubottu | Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 02:33 |
| Peyam | so many terminals is a issue for me since I have a small screen | 02:34 |
| Ari-Yang | Peyam, I made a .desktop file where I can just double click on the file and it will automatically run mpv for me | 02:34 |
| Ari-Yang | https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv-build there are instructions to install mpv | 02:34 |
| Ari-Yang | afk, dinner | 02:34 |
| === root is now known as Guest60111 | ||
| === Guest60111 is now known as splitstream | ||
| ehhh | thx, i'll def check it out | 02:34 |
| pyasi | guys, no ping... | 02:35 |
| ehhh | also there's a ubuntu channel filled with bots? | 02:36 |
| Peyam | Ari-Yang: yes having a .dekstop file is something but when you clicking on the file is something else. it automaticly opens the player when you double click on it? | 02:36 |
| === roasted_ is now known as roasted | ||
| Ari-Yang | Peyam, yes it does, that's the point of me making that .desktop file, is so that when I double click it will open up mpv on its own lol (afk dinner) | 02:36 |
| somsip | !details | pyasi | 02:37 |
| ubottu | pyasi: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 02:37 |
| Peyam | yes the .desktop file opens the player. but if I double click on a .avi file. wil that automatily open the player? | 02:37 |
| === a-adie is now known as AdieChrist | ||
| pyasi | my internet doesn't work in live cd, it gets connected to the router, can load router's homepage, but can't run other sites, please help me ,plz | 02:38 |
| AdieChrist | :/ | 02:39 |
| Peyam | pyasi: use a wired connection | 02:39 |
| Peyam | ohhh now I know sorry | 02:40 |
| pyasi | peyam, sorry, but can't i run wireless?? | 02:40 |
| Peyam | it should be possible | 02:41 |
| Peyam | check if firefox in not in offline mode | 02:41 |
| pyasi | i get ping from router , but not other | 02:41 |
| Peyam | is it really your router? and not neighbeurs? | 02:41 |
| Peyam | hahah | 02:42 |
| Peyam | well what can I say | 02:44 |
| L3top | Hi all... what would make my ssh "man in the middle" attack warning NOT fire when I ssh into different systems at the same address with the same un? | 02:44 |
| Peyam | pyasi: it should be possible but use ur wire for now! | 02:46 |
| pyasi | Peyam: man i don't have wire(ethernet cabale) | 02:46 |
| === BTCOxygen|1 is now known as BTCOxygen | ||
| Peyam | you have one inside your router. | 02:47 |
| pyasi | Peyam: sorry, i don't have that | 02:48 |
| sweettea | L3top: what? | 02:48 |
| pyasi | Peyam: so need to configure it, why its not working...?? | 02:48 |
| Peyam | is your webbrowser in offline mode? | 02:48 |
| sweettea | maybe dns | 02:48 |
| sweettea | ping 8.8.8.8 | 02:48 |
| ehhh | pyasi: if you connect with cable you can diagnose whether it's the pc or the router that's at fault. . do you have more computers that you can try out? alternatively try unplugging the router briefly and plugging it back in and try again | 02:49 |
| pyasi | Peyam: no not in offline | 02:49 |
| ehhh | oh wait, i'm a genius aren't i | 02:49 |
| ehhh | lol | 02:50 |
| L3top | sweettea: when you instantiate an ssh session a key is stored, and then on each reconnect it is checked. If the key does not check, then it should warn you that you may be the victim of a man-in-the-middle attack. It is somewhat annoying usually... however its lack of appearance would lead me to believe that ssh is no longer checking keys. I am wondering how, for obvious reasons, this could occur, and perhaps some direction to | 02:50 |
| L3top | investigate. | 02:50 |
| pyasi | ehhh: man, its working in my laptop in which its windows(pre-installed) | 02:50 |
| ehhh | pyasi: yeah i realised you must have some way to communicate with us now :P | 02:50 |
| pyasi | ehhh: it used to work in this same laptop when installed, but doesn't work in the live cd | 02:50 |
| Peyam | does the status bar say that you are connected? | 02:51 |
| pyasi | sweettea: not working ping... | 02:51 |
| ekaj | Tryin to set a static IP in ubuntu server 12.04.2 LTS, I have the lines: iface eth0 inet static | address 10.0.0.205 | gateway 10.0.0.1 | netmask 255.255.255.0 but it doesn't work. On my other computers <windows> it works if I specify Google DNs, but adding the "nameserver 8.8.8.8 | 02:51 |
| ekaj | line doesn't work | 02:51 |
| somsip | L3top: possible you have actually logged in to that IP previously? I (sadly) have loads of old auth'd IPs that relate to cloud servers and I do sometimes get a match. Long shot I know... | 02:51 |
| ekaj | Nor does adding it to /etc/resolv.conf | 02:51 |
| pyasi | Peyam: yes, it is connected to the router, gives the homepage of router too | 02:52 |
| sweettea | L3top: you can do verbose ssh to see exactly what its doing | 02:52 |
| sweettea | my guess is, once the key is stored, and the compare makes out, no warn is necessary | 02:52 |
| Peyam | yes. but being conneted to router is not the same as connected to internet | 02:52 |
| L3top | somsip: they are duplicate systems with different keys. It always blows warnings when I swap back and forth between production and dev | 02:52 |
| L3top | thank you sweettea. | 02:52 |
| pyasi | Peyam: yes, i know ... | 02:53 |
| sweettea | ekaj: did you use /etc/network/interfaces | 02:53 |
| ekaj | es | 02:53 |
| ekaj | *yes | 02:53 |
| ekaj | that's where that stuff was | 02:53 |
| pyasi | Peyam: man, my router is connected to the internet, but laptop isn't | 02:53 |
| Peyam | pyasi: do this | 02:53 |
| Peyam | turn of the router for 20 sec | 02:53 |
| Peyam | and plug it in again | 02:53 |
| sweettea | im not sure what "does not work" means | 02:53 |
| sweettea | can you pinmg the gw? | 02:54 |
| Peyam | what is your router? | 02:54 |
| sweettea | what happens when you do ifup | 02:54 |
| ekaj | No, can't ping anything | 02:54 |
| sdl240 | hi | 02:54 |
| pyasi | Peyam: 2wire547 | 02:54 |
| ekaj | it says already configured | 02:54 |
| sweettea | ifconfig shows it is? | 02:54 |
| ekaj | ifup does | 02:54 |
| pyasi | Peyam: man , it is not the fault of router | 02:54 |
| sweettea | what does ifconfig | 02:54 |
| sweettea | say? | 02:54 |
| ekaj | shows inter addr, mask as I set it, Bcast as 10.0.0.2555 | 02:55 |
| ekaj | *255 | 02:55 |
| sweettea | do you have ethtool installed? | 02:55 |
| ekaj | could ipv6 be interfering? | 02:55 |
| sweettea | do ethtool eth0 | 02:55 |
| sweettea | no | 02:55 |
| pyasi | Peyam: are u there?? | 02:56 |
| ekaj | it's not installed | 02:56 |
| Peyam | pyasi: just turn it off and on | 02:56 |
| sweettea | is your cable legit/connected | 02:56 |
| sweettea | trace it | 02:56 |
| sweettea | maybe you have more than 1 nic | 02:56 |
| fbdystang | Hi, I have a USB-microsd card adapter that shows up with lsusb, but does not give a blkid. Please advise | 02:56 |
| pyasi | Peyam: i did it 100 times man, didn't work | 02:56 |
| ekaj | Me? | 02:56 |
| ekaj | It's a VM, it works when I have DHCP on | 02:56 |
| Peyam | pyasi: u waited for 10-20 secs? | 02:56 |
| somsip | !who | 02:56 |
| ubottu | As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 02:56 |
| sweettea | oic | 02:56 |
| sweettea | are you sure its eth0 | 02:56 |
| ekaj | yes | 02:56 |
| pyasi | Peyam: if the router isn't working, how would i connect to the internet and freenode?? | 02:56 |
| sweettea | do a dmesg | grep eth0 | 02:56 |
| sweettea | when you have dhcp enabled, what IP does it pull | 02:57 |
| Peyam | pyasi: we just update the connections | 02:57 |
| sweettea | perhaps the vm is supposed to be on a diff network | 02:57 |
| somsip | !who | sweettea | 02:57 |
| ubottu | sweettea: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 02:57 |
| ekaj | a random one in my dhcp range | 02:57 |
| ekaj | it's on the right network, the other 5 computers worked with these settings | 02:57 |
| pyasi | yes, did that also man | 02:58 |
| pyasi | Peyam: it doesn't work, i think there's dNS problem....how to fix it?? | 02:58 |
| ekaj | sweettea: It doesn't say anything about ipv4, it says ipv6 isn't ready | 02:58 |
| Peyam | pyasi: my suggestions : 1) read your router homepage if something is wrong there! 2) restart it 3) if you have other wifi devices change the wifi channel of your router! More than than I dont know | 02:59 |
| pyasi | Peyam: ok thanks for your help and try... | 02:59 |
| Peyam | sorry I coulndt help. it happend me once I dont remember how I solved it | 03:00 |
| pyasi | Peyam: ok man | 03:00 |
| sweettea | ekaj: what network are your vms supposed to be on? Did you enable a bridge or nat? | 03:00 |
| ekaj | NAT.. they're on the right network | 03:02 |
| fbdystang | Hi, I have a USB-microsd card adapter that shows up with lsusb, but does not give a blkid. Please advise | 03:02 |
| wilee-nilee | fbdystang, Is there a card in it? | 03:03 |
| partounian | Hey guys I installed a theme pack, but how do I use it? | 03:03 |
| fbdystang | wilee-nilee: yes, i just used a dd command to dd an image over | 03:03 |
| pyasi | partounian: use gnome tweak tool | 03:03 |
| wilee-nilee | fbdystang, A dd does not make a partition if you dd to the sdX, not sure if a blkd shoes it really. | 03:04 |
| sweettea | ekaj: well something isup, check iptables maybe blocking icmp | 03:04 |
| wilee-nilee | *blkid shows* | 03:04 |
| sweettea | or do like i suggested | 03:04 |
| fbdystang | wilee-nilee: I pulled the usb out and plugged back in and now it can't see it | 03:04 |
| sweettea | ekaj: compare why dhcp works and static does not | 03:04 |
| partounian | pyasi: I'm on 10.04 | 03:04 |
| pyasi | partounian: download gnome tweak tool and install it | 03:05 |
| wilee-nilee | fbdystang, Take a look from gparted or the disks app, run a fdisk -l and see if it is shown. | 03:05 |
| AdieChrist | my sister is my partner in crime. | 03:06 |
| sweettea | can anyone tell me why my stupid thunderbird unity alerts no longer work on 13.04? | 03:06 |
| wilee-nilee | fbdystang, Does it have a partition? | 03:06 |
| fbdystang | wilee-nilee: It should, I downloaded the image and it is supposed to have 3 ready made partitions. fdisk -l shows nothing. Gparted can't see it. What am I missing? | 03:07 |
| wilee-nilee | fbdystang, Did you dd to a partition or to just the card? | 03:08 |
| prooty | hello. i'm working on appindicators in ubuntu, and i notice that other appindicators change their icons when the theme changes. is there documentation on how to do it? | 03:08 |
| fbdystang | wilii-nilee: sudo dd if=ArchLinuxARM-olinuxino-latest.img of=/dev/sdc1 | 03:09 |
| fbdystang | wilii-nilee: Did I "of" to the wrong place? | 03:10 |
| drags | u/win 24 | 03:10 |
| wilee-nilee | sweettea, Here is some general info. http://askubuntu.com/questions/287525/thunderbird-missing-from-messaging-menu-dash | 03:10 |
| wilee-nilee | fbdystang, Not sure I never dd, I just wondered if you dd to the card and wiped the partitions | 03:11 |
| fbdystang | wilee-nilee: if so, how do I mount it again to reformat? | 03:11 |
| wilee-nilee | fbdystang, Try sudo mount /dev/sdc /mnt | 03:12 |
| Tux_1 | Can you set up Ubuntu 12.04 desktop so it will boot to command prompt | 03:12 |
| somsip | !text | Tux_1 | 03:12 |
| ubottu | Tux_1: To start your system in text-only mode append 'text' (without the quotes) to the kernel line in the grub menu. You can access the grub menu by pressing Esc (Grub legacy) or Shift (Grub2) during boot. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions#Text%20Mode | 03:12 |
| partounian | On Grub2 how can I remove my old kernel boot option and leave the new ones. | 03:13 |
| wilee-nilee | fbdystang, I'm assuming it will still be seen as sdc | 03:13 |
| holstein | partounian: autoremove will remove the old ones, but i would keep one or a few old ones around | 03:13 |
| fbdystang | desktop:/$ sudo mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt | 03:13 |
| fbdystang | mount: you must specify the filesystem type | 03:13 |
| partounian | holstein: thanks. | 03:14 |
| somsip | partounian: or if you want the longer approach, this looks decent http://is.gd/T7YIK1 | 03:14 |
| Tux_1 | somsip: thanks | 03:14 |
| sweettea | wilee-nilee: did you just google that, or did you do that to fix it? | 03:15 |
| sweettea | uninstall/reinstall | 03:15 |
| wilee-nilee | fbdystang, I googled it, I have not had the problem, nor use unity. | 03:15 |
| wilee-nilee | sweettea, ^^^^ sory fbdystang | 03:16 |
| fbdystang | :) | 03:16 |
| fbdystang | wilee-nilee: basically how can I still mount it if it doesn't show up in the blkid? | 03:17 |
| wilee-nilee | fbdystang, Not sure really. | 03:18 |
| wilee-nilee | fbdystang, Might be the computer I have a acer d250 that is really problematic with a mini flash card. | 03:19 |
| numberto | Hi guys, unity does not work. I believe it just does not start (I believe it is some problem with nvidia). | 03:19 |
| wilee-nilee | !details > numberto | 03:20 |
| ubottu | numberto, please see my private message | 03:20 |
| holstein | numberto: what makes you think its nvidia? | 03:20 |
| sweettea | well the reinstall got 1 of the alerts working | 03:22 |
| sweettea | rofl | 03:22 |
| numberto | holstein: I have ubuntu 13.04 and graphic card nvidia optimus gt 520m. I did something and when I booted I had black screen. With nomodeset I was able to get into ubuntu but screen resolution is 1024x728, while it should be larger. I just don't know how to debug it. | 03:22 |
| numberto | I do have bumblebee installed | 03:22 |
| numberto | and I don't have unity working. I could start browser and pidgin via terminal | 03:23 |
| holstein | numberto: was it working before bumblebee? | 03:24 |
| numberto | holstein: I had it working with bumblebee before. Now I just reinstalled it. | 03:24 |
| holstein | numberto: what broke it? | 03:25 |
| numberto | I have no clue. I did messed up with grub while trying to install arch on other partition. That is it. I fixed grub now. But have issues with my screen resolution. | 03:26 |
| numberto | holstein: it might be that there were some setting in grub, which I messed. | 03:27 |
| holstein | numberto: all i can do is suggest troubleshooting by removing variables.. remove the xorg.conf.. remove the nvida driver.. etc | 03:27 |
| partounian | So installed ubuntu tweak, but I still can't use my downloaded theme. | 03:29 |
| wilee-nilee | partounian, You have a link to the theme? | 03:29 |
| partounian | The highest rated on gnome-look.org, and I installed it via apt-get. | 03:30 |
| wilee-nilee | partounian, Is it gtk 3 | 03:30 |
| partounian | wilee-nilee, gtk? I'm on 10.04 with gnome 2. | 03:31 |
| wilee-nilee | partounian, Ah, and that is not supported...end of life, the server is, not the desktop. | 03:32 |
| mizo_96 | Hi has anyone been able to kickstart ubuntu from the LAN fully as in not refer to an online apt repo OR download 50 gigs useing apt-mirror, anyone done a full automated kickstart ubuntu install from the DVD?? | 03:32 |
| partounian | wilee-nilee, I | 03:32 |
| wilee-nilee | partounian, Not an area I'm real up on, someone might be though. | 03:32 |
| partounian | wilee-niee, I'm only using it to compile Android which is best supported on 10.04 | 03:32 |
| wilee-nilee | partounian, I'm just giving you a heads up on support is all. ;) | 03:33 |
| partounian | wilee-nilee: Okay I understand. | 03:33 |
| partounian | So anyone here know how to set a theme on Gnome 2(10.04)? | 03:36 |
| holstein | partounian: i always just downloaded them back then.. i remember it being pretty easy.. are you sure you are getting themes that are made for gnome2? | 03:37 |
| partounian | holstein: "Just downloaded"? | 03:38 |
| holstein | partounian: correct.. from the internet.. nothing special | 03:38 |
| holstein | partounian: whats the issue? do you have one that is makde for gnome2 that is not working? | 03:39 |
| holstein | partounian: im assuming you are talking about adding one you downloaded.. setting the themes would happen in the theme manager.. i think you just right click and go to "look and feel" or something similar | 03:40 |
| zz0 | plymouth ask. Anybody knows how to implement custom tty's screens using plymouth | 03:40 |

| hola | list # | 03:42 |
| partounian | holstein: It just says Gnome icon theme pack. | 03:42 |
| holstein | partounian: it? | 03:42 |
| holstein | partounian: i have no idea what you have downloaded or what you are looking at, or why you are not running 12.04, or 13.04.. so, please share as many releavant details as possible | 03:42 |
| NaOH | the useradd man page tells me not to use the --password flag because the password will be visible to users listing the processes. can i avoid this problem by using chpasswd which takes the username/password via stdin? | 03:43 |
| NaOH | in other words, is chpasswd safer? | 03:44 |
| partounian | holstein: I am running 10.04 because that is the best version to develop Android OS on, but the file was the highest rated file on gnome-look.org | 03:44 |
| holstein | partounian: i would talk to the developer, or try another download.. sounds like it doesnt support the desktop you are using.. android can be developed on any ubuntu.. i wouldnt stay back at 10.04 for that | 03:45 |
| kostkon_ | partounian: 10.04 desktop is eol and is not supported here anymore | 03:45 |
| kostkon_ | partounian: both 10.04 and gnome 2 are dead | 03:46 |
| holstein | thats right.. the server version is still supported partounian , but the desktop is over.. even gnome doesnt support gnome2, and there is nothing you need to do with android that you cant do in 12.04 or 13.04 | 03:46 |
| OerHeks | those gnome-look themes should have a readme | 03:46 |

| Zeroedout | mizo_96: I have installed Ubuntu purely from the LAN | 04:03 |
| Zeroedout | You use tftp boot and NFS to boot the livedvd/cd over the network | 04:03 |
| Zeroedout | I use https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PXEInstallMultiDistro as my guide | 04:03 |
| mizo_96 | I use cobbler atm | 04:03 |

| mizo_96 | Nice I am going to do it from centos | 04:03 |
| mizo_96 | so I am going to mount a ubuntu iso | 04:04 |
| mizo_96 | use apt tools to install apt programs on centos | 04:04 |
| d4rkn30 | holstein, thats what it gave me back after i did what that topic suggested | 04:04 |
| mizo_96 | create an aptrepo from cd | 04:04 |
| mizo_96 | then publish it in apache | 04:04 |
| holstein | d4rkn30: i understand that.. can you ping the address? | 04:04 |
| mizo_96 | so it can be installed of the lan | 04:04 |
| d4rkn30 | holstein, yeah i can ping it | 04:05 |
| d4rkn30 | holstein, it comes back as per normal ping | 04:05 |
| holstein | d4rkn30: then, i would just try it again.. sudo apt-get update | 04:05 |
| === aaron is now known as Guest66113 | ||

| holstein | d4rkn30: if you can ping it, thats not the issue | 04:06 |
| NickGarvey | hi, I'm trying to insert my own script into the initramfs and it doesn't appear to be working, which wouldn't be that big of a problem but I can't for the life of me get boot debugging messages | 04:06 |
| Zeroedout | mizo_96: Just be sure that if you do use it, copy over the .disk file from the Ubuntu ISO as it won't do it with the commands provided | 04:07 |
| d4rkn30 | holstein, isnt there a timeout ? | 04:07 |
| Zeroedout | I've wanted to update the section for years, but keep forgetting, i'll do it now | 04:07 |
| NickGarvey | how do you enable boot debugging messages? I have put a Yes in /etc/defaults/bootlogd and nothing has changed - which seems to be the case for more recent versions of ubuntu | 04:07 |
| holstein | d4rkn30: if you can ping it, you can ping it.. i mean, spend time troubleshooting your connection to the server if you want, but you *can* ping it | 04:08 |
| d4rkn30 | well i know that, the thing is i can update the desktop no problem on the same connection, | 04:09 |
| holstein | d4rkn30: what did you do before it broke? | 04:09 |
| d4rkn30 | Nothing its a fresh install | 04:09 |
| holstein | d4rkn30: so, you finished installing.. booted, got the error you showed me, then ran the command i linked, then got this error? nothing esle? | 04:10 |
| holstein | else* | 04:10 |
| d4rkn30 | holstein, Nope Nothing at all | 04:10 |
| holstein | d4rkn30: im the kind of guy who would compare the sources from the machine that works | 04:11 |
| d4rkn30 | holstein, i never thought of that seeings as i thought it would be the same as both are recent installes | 04:11 |
| holstein | d4rkn30: confirm if they are.... | 04:12 |
| d4rkn30 | ones 12.04 ( server) and the other is 13.04 | 04:12 |
| holstein | d4rkn30: then, they will be different.. and it wont do you any good | 04:12 |
| holstein | d4rkn30: also, it irrelevant that one is connecting, since its connecting to a different place | 04:12 |
| d4rkn30 | holstein, well no one will say precise and the other raring | 04:12 |
| holstein | d4rkn30: could be the mirrors are down | 04:13 |
| d4rkn30 | holstein, its the main ubuntu mirrors | 04:13 |
| holstein | d4rkn30: that can be down | 04:14 |
| holstein | d4rkn30: im not saying they are... since you can ping them.. im just offering possible solutions | 04:14 |
| d4rkn30 | holstein, the only two diffrences between the sources.list is the release name | 04:14 |
| d4rkn30 | holstein, same set of mirrors | 04:14 |
| holstein | d4rkn30: yet, one is working and the other is not | 04:15 |
| d4rkn30 | holstein, yeah ikr odd. | 04:15 |

| jetole | hey guys. I'm running dnsmasq and resolvconf and have them both pretty much the way I want them except my final /etc/resolv.conf has a dns search domain added from dhcp from my ISP and I don't want that. Does anyone know how I would exclude that? | 04:50 |

| ZigSphere | Cant you edit your resolv.conf? | 04:51 |
| jetole | ZigSphere: yes but when resolvconf reruns then it's reverted. I edited /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base to have the domain search I want but the ISP added domain is being added prepending the other ones | 04:52 |
| ZigSphere | I see | 04:53 |
| ZigSphere | So you want to set it without being changed. I would totally write a script | 04:53 |
| jetole | ZigSphere: I can write a script if I want but I shouldn't need to. There has to be a way. I want dnsmasq to keep using the dhcp based dns servers and just not the domain search but not sure where to edit | 04:54 |
| holstein | pzhnathaniel: i, nor anyone else, will likely be able to help.. ir you are having issues, assume its that the theme you have is bad, and stop trying to use it | 04:55 |
| ZigSphere | yeah. Makes sense | 04:55 |
| jetole | dnsmasq? resolvconf? /etc/network/interfaces? /etc/dhcp/dhclient.conf? | 04:55 |
| somsip | jetole: add 'dns-nameservers' to /etc/network/interfaces ? | 04:55 |
| somsip | jetole: eg: dns-nameservers 192.168.1.1 | 04:55 |
| jetole | somsip: I want to disable the domain search path. Not the dns nameservers | 04:55 |
| somsip | jetole: ok - point missed | 04:55 |
| Sazpaimon__ | does the minimal CD allow for full disk encryption or only home folder encryption? | 04:55 |
| ZigSphere | arent nameserver set in resolv.conf? not interfaces | 04:56 |
| ZigSphere | unless you can set them in both | 04:56 |
| jetole | somsip: the line that starts with search in /etc/resolv.conf | 04:56 |
| jetole | ZigSphere: you can but it's not the name servers themselves I want to change | 04:56 |
| ZigSphere | search domain.local | 04:56 |
| ZigSphere | eg | 04:56 |
| somsip | jetole: resolv conf get s overwritten. You or someone else already said that | 04:56 |
| jetole | but on ubuntu 12.04 if you use dhcp and you edit resolv.conf instead of /etc/network/interfaces then you will lose it | 04:57 |
| jetole | somsip: yes | 04:57 |
| === tjbiddle_ is now known as tjbiddle | ||
| jetole | so I want to know which program I would change and how I would change it to not accept search from eth0 | 04:57 |
| ZigSphere | Ah - so setting DNS in interfaces will stick then | 04:57 |
| ZigSphere | I see | 04:57 |
| jetole | ZigSphere: yes but again, dns servers isn't what I want to change | 04:57 |
| ZigSphere | right | 04:57 |
| varunendra | jetole, are you using Network Manager? | 04:57 |
| jetole | varunendra: uh. it's running | 04:58 |
| jetole | varunendra: though I have mostly edited by hand interfaces, dnsmasq and resolvconf | 04:59 |
| varunendra | jetole, have you tried "Automatic (DHCP) address only" in NM ? | 04:59 |
| somsip | jetole: man dhclient.conf and look up supersede. Looks like the way to go | 04:59 |
| varunendra | I believe this is where dnsmasq picks up settings. | 04:59 |
| jetole | somsip: vaguely familiar with it but don't know what to supercede with to leave it null | 04:59 |
| jetole | varunendra: don't want to lose dns servers though | 04:59 |
| varunendra | you will have to put them in NM then. | 05:00 |
| varunendra | That should stick | 05:00 |
| jetole | just the domain it adds to search, i.e. if I type http://support/ into the browser then it searches http://support.my-isp.com/ then http://support.my-vpn-to-company.com/ | 05:00 |
| somsip | jetole: well look it up then. I found one example on the first search result https://calomel.org/dhclient.html | 05:00 |
| jetole | varunendra: but they are variable | 05:00 |
| varunendra | jetole, where does it get the DNS. From the DHCP server I guess? | 05:01 |
| jetole | varunendra: yes and thats fine | 05:01 |
| jetole | the dns servers are fine | 05:01 |
| pzhnathaniel | holstein: thank you | 05:01 |
| jetole | it's telling me that it wants to search my-isp.com if the hostname I use doesn't resolve / isn't an fqdn | 05:02 |
| varunendra | Unless your dhcp server is supplying that info, you can use the dhcp server's address in DNS field in nm. | 05:02 |
| Kow | upon further inspection, quassel-client is built on QT, quassel-client-kde4 is built using the KDE libs. which is awesome if you are not a KDE user :) | 05:02 |
| jetole | yes it is supplying that info via dhcp and that's what I am trying to disable | 05:02 |
| Kow | completely wrong channel, oops | 05:03 |
| Kow | but for the #ubuntu record, quassel is awesome | 05:03 |
| gRAVIty2 | system shuts down randomly. Ubuntu 12.04 on lenovo x200 tablet. The logfile is at http://paste.ubuntu.com/5794346/. The shutdown happened at 8:39. can you explain what is happening? | 05:03 |
| Ben64 | gRAVIty2: that log doesn't have anything for the time when it shut down | 05:07 |
| * cfhowlett ... ain't nobody got time to read all that! | 05:08 | |
| gRAVIty2 | Ben64: 8:39:04 ? | 05:09 |
| NickGarvey | gRAVIty2: that's during the boot, not the shutdown | 05:09 |
| gRAVIty2 | NickGarvey: how do I find what happened when it shutdown? | 05:10 |
| NickGarvey | gRAVIty2: when it shuts down, does it go through the shutdown process or does it just turn off? | 05:11 |
| NickGarvey | gRAVIty2: and does it turn off or reboot? | 05:11 |
| gRAVIty2 | Nickgarvey: It displays some message with white text on black screen. let me get you pics of that. | 05:12 |
| gRAVIty2 | NickGarvey: you can find the pictures when it shut down here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2154876 | 05:13 |
| gRAVIty2 | looks something like dmesg | 05:13 |
| NickGarvey | gRAVIty2: that right there is a kernel panic | 05:14 |
| gRAVIty2 | NickGarvey: what is it and what can i do to prevent that from happening? | 05:14 |
| NickGarvey | gRAVIty2: so a kernel panic is when your kernel detects that something is in a bad state and it doesn't want to continue at risk of doing damage | 05:15 |
| NickGarvey | gRAVIty2: this can only happen in 'kernel mode', the kernel itself and device drivers all run in kernel mode as they need access to hardware | 05:15 |
| NickGarvey | gRAVIty2: in this situation, it is almost certainly a device driver as you are on non-standard hardware | 05:15 |
| NickGarvey | gRAVIty2: the easiest and most likely way to fix this is to simply upgrade to a newer version of ubuntu | 05:16 |
| gRAVIty2 | NickGarvey: it was working fine for a while. I had 10.04 also on this same laptop. | 05:16 |
| NickGarvey | gRAVIty2: newer versions have newer kernels | 05:16 |
| gRAVIty2 | NickGarvey: thanks for that. could this be a hardware issue? I went to the service centre who ran diagnostics and said it is fine. Once in a while reboot happens even in windows | 05:16 |
| NickGarvey | gRAVIty2: yes, it certainly could. the 'BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request' /might/ be a memory problem, but based on the address in memory I tend to think otherwise | 05:17 |
| cfhowlett | gRAVIty2, the fact that it happens in windows as well pretty much rules out a linux only problem, yes? I'd say hardware | 05:17 |
| NickGarvey | gRAVIty2: oh I didn't notice the windows part, yeah that more or less spells it out then | 05:18 |
| NickGarvey | gRAVIty2: check your wifi card and your memory would be my guesses | 05:18 |
| gRAVIty2 | NickGarvey: Did memtest and it went through 5 passes without a hitch | 05:18 |
| NickGarvey | gRAVIty2: does this ever happen when your wireless card is off? | 05:19 |
| cfhowlett | gRAVIty2, memtest only tests mem ... whatever your fail trigger is seems not to be mem related... | 05:19 |
| robertjdohnert | gRAVIty2: What type of notebook? | 05:19 |
| gRAVIty2 | NickGarvey: I never used without wifi card recently. Now that you mention it - i started using wifi and the restarts seem to start at the same time. Wifi occasionally stops and i have to restart to start it | 05:20 |
| gRAVIty2 | robertdohnert: lenovo x200 tablet | 05:20 |
| gRAVIty2 | robertjdohnert | 05:20 |
| gRAVIty2 | cfhowlett: is there a way to find the trigger | 05:20 |
| cfhowlett | gRAVIty2, over my head I'm afraid. I'd hope that there's specific guidance in one of your logs, but I wouldn't know where to look. Suggest you carefully document the fail mode and triggers. When you can reproduce the fail, share that info with repair techs, forums, irc until someone points you to a fix. | 05:22 |
| gRAVIty2 | cfhowlett: how do i document the failmode and triggers? can u help with that? | 05:23 |
| crazyhorse | i can't change the resolution on my monitors after an apt-get update | 05:23 |
| crazyhorse | what do i do? | 05:23 |
| cfhowlett | gRAVIty2, whenever it fails, immediately write down what you were doing, what apps were running, any error messages noted. Once you see repeats of "first this >>> then that happened" you | 05:24 |
| cfhowlett | you've got an identifiable pattern and that will aid diagnosis. Or so the engineers tell me. | 05:24 |
| vlad205 | crazyhorse: what type of video do you have on what processor | 05:24 |
| crazyhorse | intel i5, Intel HD | 05:25 |
| gRAVIty2 | cfhowlett: that helps! | 05:25 |
| jetole | got it! For those curious, the search was being set based on the domain name I was being assigned from the ISP which was visible via /run/resolvconf/interface/eth0.dhclient. I edited /etc/dhcp/dhclient.conf and in the request section I removed domain-search (which had no effect) and after realizing the domain was where resolvconf was setting it I removed domain-name | 05:25 |
| gRAVIty2 | thanks | 05:25 |
| crazyhorse | vlad205: using P8 Z77-V | 05:25 |
| jetole | and that caused the ISP set domain from being removed from search in /etc/resolv.conf | 05:25 |
| cfhowlett | gRAVIty2, best of luck | 05:25 |
| gRAVIty2 | :) | 05:25 |
| vlad205 | crazyhorse: the only thing I could think to do is reconfigure xserver and the driver with dpkg-reconfigure | 05:26 |
| crazyhorse | vlad205: SOrry its's a Asus P8 Z77-V LE PLUS motherboard which uses the Z77 chipset with on-board Intel HD graphics.. Everything worked perfectly until i did an apt-get update/upgrade and now both monitors are locked in some really low crappy resolution | 05:26 |
| crazyhorse | vlad205: what does that command do? | 05:26 |
| NickGarvey | !resolution > crazyhorse | 05:26 |
| ubottu | crazyhorse, please see my private message | 05:26 |
| vlad205 | check /etc/X11 and your xorg.conf file | 05:27 |
| vlad205 | crazyhorse: I'd just purge what I installed and re-install and place the proper files in their proper places like xorg.conf | 05:28 |
| crazyhorse | NickGarvey: checking | 05:28 |
| crazyhorse | ubottu: I haven't installed any graphical restarted stuff | 05:29 |
| ubottu | crazyhorse: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 05:29 |
| vlad205 | lol | 05:29 |
| NickGarvey | crazyhorse: ubottu should have sent you a PM that contained a lot of useful information for your problem | 05:29 |
| crazyhorse | hey nick.. thanks i did | 05:30 |
| vlad205 | there is a command to reconfigure the xserver google it | 05:30 |
| crazyhorse | going through it | 05:30 |
| vlad205 | "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" | 05:32 |
| snufft | hey guys | 05:33 |
| snufft | stupid question: is it possible to own a folder, but not own its contents? and if so, will you be able to delete the folder when you don't own its content? | 05:33 |
| vlad205 | check for an existing xorg.conf in etc/X11 move it to a *.backup and let the xorg regenerate it | 05:33 |
| NickGarvey | snufft: sounds like a good time for an experiment :) | 05:34 |
| vlad205 | snufft yes, then no | 05:34 |
| snufft | NickGarvey, i actually have the situation at the moment and was trying to work out if i can't fix it because i'm doing something stupid :P | 05:34 |
| snufft | vlad205, that confirms that I can't fix the problem then :P thanks :) | 05:35 |
| crazyhorse | xrandr --addmode VGA1 1920x1080 :/ | 05:35 |
| NickGarvey | I was under the impression that you could delete a folder with content you didn't own | 05:35 |
| crazyhorse | fixed it | 05:36 |
| NickGarvey | vlad205: why do you think otherwise? and snufft what error are you having? | 05:36 |
| crazyhorse | thanks.. erm that was weird though :D | 05:36 |
| vlad205 | try it | 05:37 |
| NickGarvey | I did | 05:37 |
| snufft | NickGarvey, i have a shared host account where a few files are being generated by php, but they're assigned to nobody:nobody. I need to delete them but because I don't have su, I can't do anything to fix the problem | 05:37 |
| NickGarvey | the folder is gone with the 755 files owned by root gone as well | 05:37 |
| snufft | if i try and chown/chmod/chgrp i get the usual operation not permitted because i don't have privileges | 05:37 |
| somsip | snufft: write a php script to delete them. Called from a browser | 05:37 |
| snufft | somsip, i was going to try that next, but it's a bit of a strange situation. they're lock files for magento... | 05:38 |
| snufft | not sure if they're still in use and if i can stop that | 05:38 |
| snufft | i'll give it a shot though :) | 05:39 |
| crazyhorse | NickGarvey: thanks for that page | 05:39 |
| somsip | snufft: I neverused it. There should be a cleanup script if there is a file-drop script though. Easy enough to mangle one surely? | 05:39 |
| snufft | somsip, yeah, it should be ok :) | 05:39 |
| NickGarvey | crazyhorse: yup, ubottu is the best | 05:39 |
| krakken | so i recently installed kubuntu-full 13.04. i had lubuntu 13.04 and in the ldx terminal typed sudo apt-get install kubuntu-full. there r traces or lubuntu all over. is there any way to get rid of lubuntu and only run kubuntu? | 05:41 |
| cfhowlett | !pure|krakken, | 05:41 |
| NickGarvey | !purge | krakken | 05:41 |
| ubottu | krakken: To purge all removed but not yet purged packages, use the following command: dpkg -l | awk '/^rc/{print $2}' | sudo xargs dpkg -P | 05:41 |
| vlad205 | you got me there NickGarvey....I wasn't aware ownership of the directory changed previliges on the files in it | 05:42 |
| NickGarvey | vlad205: me either :P hence the experiment | 05:42 |
| jaalto | How do you check from bash script if OS is Ubuntu? | 05:43 |
| NickGarvey | jaalto: lsb_release -a | 05:44 |
| NickGarvey | jaalto: or lsb_release -i to save some parsing | 05:44 |
| krakken | well i havent removed anything | 05:44 |
| jaalto | NickGarvey: Thank you. | 05:45 |
| NickGarvey | jaalto: ah, better might even be sourcing /etc/lsb-release | 05:45 |
| krakken | my lubuntu desktop icons r on my kubuntu desktop... i have lubuntu software center mixed in and all kinds of stuff... feels like both running at same time kinda | 05:46 |
| NickGarvey | jaalto: . /etc/lsb-release; if [ "$DISTRIB_ID" = "Ubuntu" ]; etc | 05:46 |
| krakken | i want my lubuntu to be pure lubuntu and kubuntu to be pure kubuntu | 05:46 |
| krakken | actually i wanna get rid of all lubuntu | 05:46 |
| samy_ | hello | 05:47 |
| cfhowlett | samy_, greetings | 05:47 |
| samy_ | how i can to remove or stop ssh? | 05:47 |
| krakken | mebbe i should of installed from alt f1 instead of lubuntu | 05:47 |
| samy_ | many people know my root pswd | 05:47 |
| vlad205 | krakken you might find this site useful. http://http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntucat/tag/pure-ubuntu/ | 05:47 |
| vlad205 | http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntucat/tag/pure-ubuntu/ | 05:48 |
| aeon-ltd | samy_: then it'd make more sense to change the pw | 05:48 |
| krakken | cant find | 05:48 |
| krakken | got it | 05:49 |
| krakken | too many http | 05:49 |
| cfhowlett | krakken, and this is why you don't install FULL until you know that's what you want | 05:49 |
| susundberg | samy_: sudo service sshd stop | 05:49 |
| cfhowlett | krakken, test with install of the DE only, imho | 05:49 |
| susundberg | samy_: but better is just to unplug the ethernet/wireless connection | 05:50 |
| Dr_willis | !purekde | 05:51 |
| ubottu | If you want to remove all !Gnome packages and have a default !Kubuntu system follow the instructions here « http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purekde » | 05:51 |
| krakken | that link seems to be working thank u | 05:51 |
| Dr_willis | I install all the differnt desktops. :) wife perfers one, kids like another.. | 05:51 |
| samy_ | thank | 05:53 |
| krakken | uh oh... couple of the last lines. | 05:54 |
| krakken | Removing guvcview ... Removing hardinfo ... Removing indicator-application-gtk2 ... Removing k3b ... Removing kubuntu-full ... Removing kdemultimedia ... Removing kdenetwork ... Removing kget ... Removing konq-plugins ... | 05:54 |
| Dr_willis | could be those packages are obsolete | 05:55 |
| Dr_willis | k3b is a kde burning app. | 05:55 |
| krakken | alright | 05:55 |
| Dr_willis | if you want all of lubuntu back, try reinstalling 'lubuntu-desktop' it should pull back in anything it needs | 05:55 |
| Dr_willis | or 'depends' on | 05:55 |
| Dr_willis | people worry way to much about whats installed. ;) | 05:55 |
| vlad205 | krakken: I had to manually remove two packages when I dropped kde | 05:56 |
| NickGarvey | Dr_willis: shame there is no apt-get install * :P | 05:56 |
| krakken | just want it to pe clean | 05:56 |
| krakken | be | 05:57 |

| wilee-nilee | vlad205, Download it and load it to a usb. | 06:00 |
| mikodo | NickGarvey, OK !pxe I'll look into it guys. | 06:00 |
| NickGarvey | mikodo: ah sorry I was trying to trigger the bot (who doesn't seem to know about pxe booting) search for "PXE Boot" | 06:01 |
| NickGarvey | mikodo: didn't mean to spam exclamation points :) | 06:01 |
| mikodo | wilee-nilee, Yes. I'll check it out | 06:01 |
| * cfhowlett .. thinks the bot is getting senile. It USED to know about PXE! | 06:02 | |

| vlad205 | anyone know of any live ubuntu sessions coming up on irc in the next few days | 06:10 |
| krakken | hmmm... looks like im gonna have to just wipe it all out and boot from disk for a pure copy | 06:10 |
| wilee-nilee | vlad205, live ubuntu sessions? | 06:11 |
| mikodo | wilee-nilee, Cfhowlett: Thank you. (PXE Boot and http://www.plop.at/) Why the Apple audio? | 06:11 |
| bakhtiyor | hi everyone | 06:11 |
| Dr_willis | krakken, i think you are worrying about way too much. | 06:11 |
| cfhowlett | mikodo, apple audio? doh! | 06:12 |
| Dr_willis | I find other desktops often have better tools for differnt tasks. so i always mixx up the differrent desktops. | 06:12 |
| vlad205 | held by canonical | 06:12 |
| mikodo | http://www.plop.at/ == audio of a Mac conference | 06:12 |
| krakken | idk... in all honesty im missing windows | 06:13 |
| * Dr_willis envisions chanting monks repeating over and over 'macs are still innovative.....' ;) | 06:13 | |
| Dr_willis | krakken, huh? | 06:13 |
| krakken | ubuntu has been a nightmare | 06:13 |
| wilee-nilee | ohm.......ohm.....ohm | 06:13 |
| * Dr_willis spent most of the day fighting windows.. Windows is a nightmare. | 06:13 | |
| mikodo | Dr_willis, I had hit the top button on the page (home) | 06:13 |
| krakken | what about linux mint? | 06:13 |
| wilee-nilee | krakken, Did you try removing lubuntu before trying the kde only? | 06:14 |
| Dr_willis | krakken, i dont see the point in Mint really.. its not supported here either. | 06:14 |
| krakken | anyone toy with it | 06:14 |
| OerHeks | mint has its own issues | 06:14 |
| Dr_willis | I have no issues installing lubuntu-desktop, kubuntu-desktop, ubuntu-desktop and the gnome-shell desktop all on my single machine. | 06:14 |
| vlad205 | krakken , mint is like ubuntu suse....I hate it though | 06:14 |
| wilee-nilee | mint is ubuntu in drag | 06:14 |
| vlad205 | ubuntu has better support | 06:15 |
| krakken | no i didnt i just opened terminal and started removing | 06:15 |
| cfhowlett | vlad205, no question about that | 06:15 |
| krakken | there r way too many rules | 06:15 |
| wilee-nilee | krakken, started removing? | 06:15 |
| Dr_willis | rules? this channel is for official ubuntu variants.. Mint has its own channels.. | 06:15 |
| krakken | yeah but now im adding 433 mb | 06:15 |
| Dr_willis | 433mb - egads. :) thats like the size of my..err.. printer drivers install on my windows box. ;P | 06:16 |
| krakken | no i mean rules in ubuntu | 06:16 |
| === MJCD_ is now known as GDFGD | ||

| cfhowlett | JohannKrauss, greetings | 06:16 |
| Dr_willis | sadly im not over stateing it.. had a HP printer (well scanner also) and its driver install package was like 400+MB in size. | 06:17 |
| JohannKrauss | can someone help me define OOP in layman's term? | 06:17 |
| krakken | its all so knowledge intensive | 06:17 |
| wilee-nilee | krakken, I have used those removal lists and had it error with packages not found. I then remove that package from the removal list till I get a clean finish. | 06:17 |
| krakken | it is by no means user friendly. at least not to a casual user | 06:17 |
| cfhowlett | krakken, if you want an "idiot proof" OS, please see OSX ... good luck with that. | 06:17 |
| Dr_willis | krakken, i had to read/google a lot today to fix this windows box for the grandkids.. so computers can be problem free.. or very problematic - it just depends on the problems. | 06:18 |
| krakken | u need a degree to use it | 06:18 |
| Dr_willis | OS-X is definatly not idiot proof. :) had it crash and burn also. | 06:18 |
| cfhowlett | krakken, "degree"? you | 06:18 |
| Dr_willis | the 3rd degree! | 06:18 |
| cfhowlett | krakken, you're exaggerating. You need to use the protocols and do a bit of research - as is the case with any/all tech. | 06:19 |
| NickGarvey | JohannKrauss: this isn't really the right channel for that.. but OOP is programming where code is grouped into 'objects' that contain both data and functions relating to that data | 06:19 |
| wilee-nilee | I learned ubuntu while getting a degree, not associated with computers though | 06:19 |
| krakken | eh | 06:19 |
| krakken | i guess | 06:19 |
| krakken | just seems like the honeymoon is over | 06:19 |

| mikodo | Honest to god, I am not spamming. I hit http://www.plop.at/ and opened this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wxe_0-rttIw doh is right. | 06:19 |
| JohannKrauss | NickGarvey: yeah, sorry for asking in this channel. for unknown reason. I can't send a chat on others channel :( | 06:20 |
| krakken | i think theres a reason only 1% of the world uses linux | 06:20 |
| Dr_willis | krakken, i think its MUCH higher then 1% | 06:20 |
| krakken | thats what i read | 06:20 |
| Dr_willis | given how all android phones/tablets could be considered to be 'using linux' | 06:20 |

| andrewSC | can someone tell me what I need to do to get the tun module to work? I've tried to modprobe and it doesn't exist, I think I need to enable it in the kernel but idk | 06:21 |
| Dr_willis | !find tun.ko | 06:21 |

| krakken | yeah desperatly trying to make this work. when i pick a losing cause i really commit | 06:21 |

| vlad205 | izx: Look under system settings /Display and change there. | 06:23 |
| Dr_willis | izx, whats your video chipset and what driver are you using for it? | 06:23 |
| andrewSC | NickGarvey: that file is nonexistent and my /boot is empty | 06:23 |

| Dr_willis | andrewSC, a vps can do things in very nonstandard ways - from what ive seen. | 06:24 |
| andrewSC | VPS Image* | 06:24 |

| vlad205 | cfhowlett, hey | 06:30 |
| Sazpaimon__ | does the minimal CD allow for full disk encryption or only home folder encryption? | 06:32 |
| cfhowlett | Sazpaimon__, you can install full encryption although I don't know that that's actually ON the mini. It can easily be added post initial install. | 06:34 |
| Sazpaimon__ | cfhowlett, I assume when I install via mini I'll need to explicitly put /boot/ on another partition | 06:35 |
| Sazpaimon__ | which I dont think the installer will do for me | 06:35 |
| NickGarvey | Sazpaimon__: yes you do, and yes it will | 06:35 |
| NickGarvey | Sazpaimon__: encrypting your main partition uses LVM which the installer handles intelligently | 06:35 |
| NickGarvey | Sazpaimon__: however I can't speak for the minimal CD but I expect it is the same as the full minus a lot of packages | 06:36 |
| Sazpaimon__ | do I need to use LVM? Can I just use LUKS without a mapper? | 06:36 |
| Sazpaimon__ | I'd like to be able to mount the disk in windows using FreeOTFE | 06:36 |
| === stonie_ is now known as steinchen | ||
| NickGarvey | Sazpaimon__: you need a mapper, without one where in software would the decryption happen? | 06:37 |
| Sazpaimon__ | i dont know, how does freeotfe manage to mount encrypted volumes on windows? | 06:38 |
| NickGarvey | Sazpaimon__: same idea different implementation | 06:39 |
| NickGarvey | Sazpaimon__: it looks like it is compatible with dm-crypt | 06:39 |
| Sazpaimon__ | im asking because lvm isn't supported by any driver on windows | 06:39 |
| Sazpaimon__ | ah, dm-crypt | 06:39 |
| Sazpaimon__ | I guess this is going to be less straightforward than I thought | 06:40 |
| NickGarvey | Sazpaimon__: I would try the installer, it might help you more than you think | 06:40 |
| Sazpaimon__ | also, I just checked the mini-iso, it only allows me to encrypt my home directory | 06:40 |
| NickGarvey | Sazpaimon__: or maybe not :) | 06:40 |
| Sazpaimon__ | I'll have to do it after the fact, then | 06:40 |
| Sazpaimon__ | no biggie | 06:40 |
| Sazpaimon__ | also, is it possible to have all of the grub, kernel, and initramfs files on the EFI system partition? | 06:41 |
| Sazpaimon__ | my ESP is about 300MB, so it can fit all that | 06:42 |
| Sazpaimon__ | i know ubuntu will prefer to have /boot be its own isolated partition, but I don't see why I can't use ESP for that | 06:42 |
| cfhowlett | Sazpaimon__, ubuntu prefers it's own partition? Not my experience ... | 06:43 |
| cfhowlett | "/boot" partition that is ... | 06:43 |
| Sazpaimon__ | if I'm using full disk encryption, it will | 06:43 |
| Sazpaimon__ | otherwise, yeah, it will be part of / | 06:44 |
| Sazpaimon__ | that being said, why not use the ESP for all that stuff? | 06:44 |
| hewthan | hey there | 06:44 |
| Sazpaimon__ | so what's the procedure on getting an encrypted rootfs post-install? Anyone have a wiki link? | 06:45 |

| varunendra | JohannKrauss, it seems that you should have only one "<" (the first one) in line 52. | 07:03 |
| Venerax | hm, is the issue that script tries to solve still present in 13.04? | 07:04 |
| JohannKrauss | varunendra: okay. I'll give em a try. thanks | 07:05 |
| JohannKrauss | varunendra: I got this error line 52: syntax error near unexpected token `(' | 07:06 |
| varunendra | JohannKrauss, just FYI, it is an instance of the "while" loop reading input from the command after "done" in the end, one line at a time and looping while there is a line to read. | 07:06 |
| penos | how much is ubuntu professional edition | 07:06 |
| cfhowlett | penos, no such thing | 07:06 |
| varunendra | JohannKrauss, usually that is a file that is read by while loop that way. So I guess the second "<" in that line may actually be "$" | 07:07 |
| JohannKrauss | varunendra: I'm sorry. I just copy the script to prevent my screen from blanking when I'm watching movies etc, I know nothing about bash/programming | 07:07 |
| varunendra | JohannKrauss, what program do you use to watch movies? Usually some of them have settings to prevent the screen from going to sleep. I know that about only vlc though. | 07:08 |

| JohannKrauss | varunendra: yup | 07:14 |
| mikodo | wilee-nilee, I thought using the guide did that | 07:14 |
| varunendra | JohannKrauss, how do you run mplayer? Via command line or do you have a gui for it? | 07:15 |
| mikodo | wilee-nilee, Oh, cp? | 07:15 |
| varunendra | I can see an option to disable screensaver in Smplayer. | 07:15 |
| wilee-nilee | mikodo, I have only used plop a few times years ago it booted a usb on a computer that was to old, so I assume it does the same, with whatever ISO is correctly loaded. What guide are you meaning? | 07:16 |

| mikodo | wilee-nilee, "Copy the files from /mnt/iso/ to the root directory of the USB drive". I am just referring to this one: http://www.plop.at/ | 07:19 |
| iceroot | mikodo: wilee-nilee you can not copy the content from an iso with cp to get a bootable device | 07:21 |
| wilee-nilee | mikodo, Not sure really if you have a windows setup you can use their usb loader. In ubuntu you can extract it to a usb formatted with a NTFS and a boot flag. you extract with the archive manager on a right click of the iso. | 07:22 |
| mikodo | iceroot, I guess that is why wilee-nilee asked | 07:22 |
| wilee-nilee | iceroot, I never said you could. | 07:22 |
| wilee-nilee | I don't even know what cp is, lol | 07:23 |
| iceroot | wilee-nilee: the command for copy | 07:23 |
| mikodo | wilee-nilee, I just have buntus | 07:23 |
| wilee-nilee | iceroot, I never said that, above I just posted the ways I have used to extract a W7 ISO to a usb to boot. | 07:24 |
| mikodo | wilee-nilee, So after extracting it to the usb, I should be able to follow plop to boot it? | 07:25 |
| wilee-nilee | mikodo, I would think so it would boot normally all plop does is enable it on computers that don't stock. | 07:25 |

| Shiju_ | I am running 12.10...my internet connects and disconnects every few seconds | 07:53 |
| Shiju_ | I have a wired connection | 07:53 |
| histo | moes: take a looksee at the .desktop file and see what it's trying to do that it's not opening. | 07:53 |
| LucidDreamZzZ | is dash the newest thing? | 07:53 |
| Shiju_ | it disconnects though it shows connected | 07:54 |
| histo | Shiju_: do other devices on the network stay connected? when it disconnects can you ping another host on your internal network? | 07:54 |
| Shiju_ | I have to reconnect every few seconds | 07:54 |
| LucidDreamZzZ | trying to figure this out how i did it before | 07:54 |
| Shiju_ | I am not very sure of technical things | 07:54 |
| histo | !unity | LucidDreamZzZ | 07:54 |
| ubottu | LucidDreamZzZ: Unity is the default UI since Ubuntu 11.04. Unity is a shell for GNOME. see http://unity.ubuntu.com. For a GNOME 2-like experience, see !notunity | 07:54 |

| LucidDreamZzZ | ok histo thanks! | 07:55 |
| Sala | The ubuntu I burned to a DVD can be used as a boot disc, correct? | 07:55 |
| DJones | Sala: Yes, it should boot into a try or install screen | 07:56 |
| DJones | Assuming its the desktop image | 07:56 |
| LucidDreamZzZ | !11.04 | 07:56 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 11.04 (Natty Narwhal) was the fourteenth release of Ubuntu. Desktop support ended on October 28, 2012. See !upgrade, !lts and !eol for more details. | 07:56 |
| Sala | What if there is no OS on the computer I'm trying to install it on? Is there a different version I need? | 07:56 |
| DJones | Sala: No, as long as you've got the desktop iso, you can partition the drive on on the computer as you need and install directly from the disc | 07:57 |
| Sala | Alright. Thank you. | 07:57 |
| histo | Shiju_: ip route should show you your gateway ip so you can try ping thatip when it goes down next time to troubleshoot | 07:57 |
| moes | histo, It is trying to open a file instead of the program...I can drag and drop the program icon onto the dash board ..but when I open it also opens the file icon | 07:58 |
| histo | Shiju_: or ip neigh | 07:59 |
| histo | moes: did you create the icon? | 07:59 |
| Babin | guide me how to setup apt chace server | 08:00 |
| moes | histo, No the program icon was in dash for the program...the icon for the file is created when the program opens | 08:01 |

| ubottu | Darkyyy, please see my private message | 08:13 |
| Darkyyy | i started installing ubuntu 12.04 thru wubi | 08:13 |
| histo | Guest19631: could be not there. You could download it from the page you see it on there are download links. | 08:14 |
| Darkyyy | just after the installtion on windows finished my pc rebooted and got stuck on boot: | 08:14 |
| Guest19631 | How long time does it take after a package to be available in the repoes after publishing | 08:15 |
| Darkyyy | please help me i'm stuck on "boot:" after installing using wubi | 08:16 |
| Darkyyy | what "no wubildr" means ? | 08:18 |
| k1l | Darkyyy: dont use wubi | 08:19 |
| k1l | wubi is hard to support and is not compatible with newer windows and uefi releases | 08:19 |

| Darkyyy | no ubuntu 12 for eeepc ? | 08:22 |
| moes | histo, The icon just below update manager is the Moneydance program..The green M is the file icon | 08:23 |
| histo | moes: So what is the issue if you click the one icon the program opens? if you click the other it tries to open a file? | 08:24 |
| histo | !info moneydance | 08:24 |
| ubottu | Package moneydance does not exist in raring | 08:24 |
| Darkyyy | 12.04 is heavy for 4 years old eeepc ? | 08:27 |
| k1l | Darkyyy: if you want performance, dont use wubi | 08:28 |
| [Gentoo] | Darkyyy: use another desktop | 08:29 |
| Darkyyy | any recommendation ?> | 08:29 |
| MonkeyDust | Darkyyy wubi will give you headaches and you'll think the system is no good | 08:29 |
| k1l | Darkyyy: wubi runs inside a container on the windows partition. that slows it down | 08:29 |
| [Gentoo] | Darkyyy: they all basically scale from prettiness > performance | 08:30 |
| moes | histo, Is it normal that it make an addition icon | 08:30 |
| histo | moes: No but you are using a third party application so you'd have to contact the author to figure out why it did that. | 08:31 |
| histo | moes: you can right click and undock the unwanted icon. | 08:31 |
| moes | histo, Yes I can undock the unwanted one ..Thanks for the help will contact the author !!! | 08:33 |

| ehhh | how much more stability / speed can i expect from xubuntu compared to ubuntu | 08:36 |
| phix | hey, I am looking Ubuntu for Android tablet at the Ubuntu site, just wondering how I actually download and install it | 08:36 |
| testing | hry | 08:37 |
| histo | ehhh: not necessarily more stability but definately more speed as you are not compositing every part of your desktop | 08:37 |
| [Gentoo] | ehhh: xfce is a lot faster than gnome / kde | 08:37 |
| histo | ehhh: why not try it and find out for yourself it's all free | 08:37 |
| testing | lubuntu is beter | 08:37 |
| histo | !touch | phix | 08:37 |
| popey | phix: #ubuntu-touch is probably the best channel for that, but https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Install may help, as well as https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch | 08:37 |
| ubottu | phix: Information about the Ubuntu Touch platform for Phone and Tablet is available here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch support and discussion in #ubuntu-touch | 08:37 |
| phix | [Gentoo]: That is true, however I have gotten used to Unity now | 08:37 |
| phix | popey: thank you | 08:37 |
| k1l | phix: its still in development state. #ubuntu-touch for the ubuntu-touch or #ubuntu-arm for the desktop ubuntu | 08:37 |
| [Gentoo] | anything below xfce (openbox, window managers etc) are all pretty similar | 08:37 |
| ehhh | yeah i think im gonna try later when i can get some dvds running, on 12.04 some applications lag and the pc nearly crashed when i tried clementine lol | 08:38 |
| ehhh | opened the visuals and boom | 08:38 |
| histo | ehhh: you are heavily dependent on a 3d card while running unity | 08:38 |
| phix | k1l: ummm what's the difference? | 08:39 |
| phix | popey, k1l: Any ideas when a stable release is due? | 08:39 |

| ehhh | so you'd recommend i run xfce over gnome? i've been familiar with xfce so it shouldn't be a problem . . can i get audacious working in xubuntu? i need one or three music players that i can browse with my phone | 08:40 |

| === multiply is now known as Multiply | ||
| [Gentoo] | ehhh: why wouldnt audacious work? | 08:40 |
| ehhh | [Gentoo]: dunno, isn't it like some apps are designed for xfce and some for gnome? or do they cross platform? | 08:41 |
| [Gentoo] | they all work | 08:41 |
| ehhh | good stuff | 08:41 |
| phix | k1l: ok | 08:41 |
| ActionParsnip | ehhh: the DE is irrelevant, you can run KDE apps in GGnome if you wish | 08:41 |
| [Gentoo] | ehhh: if you want to be minimal you can avoid a lot of deps | 08:41 |
| [Gentoo] | i use i3 which uses 3mb of ram | 08:42 |
| [Gentoo] | i dont want an app to pull in half of kde | 08:42 |
| [Gentoo] | but you can do what you like | 08:42 |
| ehhh | yeah i tried amarok on ubuntu but it is wayyyyyyyy too blattered lol though i get your point | 08:42 |
| [Gentoo] | ehhh: command line music players like ncmpcpp, cmus etc are really good and easy to use | 08:43 |
| [Gentoo] | and theyre fast | 08:43 |
| [Gentoo] | i taught my gf to use ncmpcpp couple days ago and she likes it | 08:43 |
| nyuszika7h | cvlc/nvlc is nice too | 08:43 |
| CIDR | Is there a way to make the ubuntu console not time out? | 08:44 |
| ehhh | [Gentoo]: yeah i looked at music on console and something, looks pretty good though i'm setting up media center pc and i want to browse the music library and launch songs from an android phone i dunno if i can do that with the command line players | 08:44 |
| CIDR | no gui, just console | 08:44 |
| CIDR | ehhh: have you looked into plex? | 08:44 |
| [Gentoo] | ehhh: ncmpcpp is a frontend to mpd which can be controlled remotely, i have no exp with android or phones though | 08:44 |
| nyuszika7h | CIDR: what console? | 08:44 |
| CIDR | nyuszika7h: just plane on console, no gui | 08:45 |
| Nick119119 | Hey guys! I knwo this isn't realy the place but I'm not having the issue with Mint or Windows, But when I use firefox on a chatting site like Chatango, every message I send it asks me if It can use more space, but doesn't allow me to click on anything, so I have to reload the page every message I send and recieve | 08:45 |
| CIDR | Just logged in as a user running a command I want to stay up on a monitor and not go into standby or blank the monitor after 10 minuters or whatever | 08:45 |
| Nick119119 | Is there a quick fix for this? Goggle was less then helpful | 08:45 |
| ehhh | CIDR: i remember coming across it yes, i tried xbmc on ubuntu 12.04 though and it ran horribly | 08:45 |
| [Gentoo] | CIDR: ah disable the screen blanking? | 08:46 |
| [Gentoo] | on the console? | 08:46 |
| ehhh | [Gentoo]: I'll look into ncmpcppp see what i can find out | 08:46 |
| [Gentoo] | i think thats a setterm command | 08:46 |
| CIDR | [Gentoo]: I tried that and it still blanks it | 08:46 |
| [Gentoo] | CIDR: what command did you try? | 08:46 |
| CIDR | ehhh: I run XBMC have for a long time, performance is great, what card are you using? | 08:46 |
| CIDR | [Gentoo]: lemme look | 08:46 |
| CIDR | setterm -powersave off | 08:47 |
| CIDR | setterm -blank 0 | 08:47 |

| CIDR | trying that, thanks | 08:48 |
| ehhh | CIDR: some nvidia standard chipset, i think around 2ghz single core cpu. . it's about 7 years old stationary, when i tried xbmc it lagged way too much so i'm considering sticking with mplayer | 08:49 |
| ehhh | vlc has the proper file browser i can't seem to find it in smplayer, though i haven't looked too hard | 08:51 |
| CIDR | ehhh: it's all about the video card when it comes to xbmc | 08:52 |
| ehhh | CIDR: yeah i'm not even running hdmi, just standard vga lol | 08:52 |
| CIDR | Gotcha | 08:53 |
| CIDR | I have it on my 106" so 1080p is basically a must | 08:53 |
| CIDR | but with a cheap 50 dollar card you can offload full blu ray and audio to the video card | 08:53 |
| ehhh | man can i have yoor tv 47" i can't fucking read the text | 08:53 |
| ehhh | i can run videos fine though but you think a cheap graphics card would be a viable upgrade? | 08:54 |
| k1l | please stick to a proper language :) | 08:54 |

| ehhh | awesome man | 08:55 |
| CIDR | I mean I run mine on an older core 2 duo, lower ghz, 2 gb of ram, and there's 0 lag | 08:55 |
| ehhh | it looks really great man, what speakers are you using? | 08:55 |
| CIDR | The fronts are JBL L890's | 08:55 |
| CIDR | sub is a JBL L8400, center a LC2 | 08:56 |
| CIDR | center isn't in that picture, didn't have the shelf there yet | 08:56 |
| ehhh | lol i'm considering getting the JBL studio 580 / 590 though sticking to stereo + a fat sub | 08:56 |
| ehhh | or two subs | 08:56 |
| CIDR | you miss a lot without a center channel | 08:57 |
| ehhh | yeah it's the main channel for voices | 08:57 |
| smoke_ | anyone using dvdstyler successfully with 13.04? | 08:58 |
| ehhh | but i'm more 70-80% music guy and then games and then i watch series/films that's my priorities so i think i can get a lot out of stereo speakers alone but i'm still a bit unsure whether i should go for horn tweeter speakers or normal dome/ribbon tweeter speakers, i need to demo some more lol | 08:59 |

| webmind | gnu-fdisk gives an I/O error and suggests retry | 09:25 |

| doebi | marz: those are completely different things | 09:31 |
| marz | doebi: oh, I thought bash was like the language while vi/vim is the compiler or something | 09:31 |
| ActionParsnip | marz: depends what you need, 2 are text editors, bash is a shell and can be coded | 09:31 |
| ActionParsnip | marz: its like, "which should I learn first notepad, write or C++" | 09:31 |
| marz | ActionParsnip: so what scripting language or programming language do you use on vi/vim? | 09:32 |
| doebi | marz: you can you use anything in vim | 09:32 |
| ActionParsnip | marz: vi and vim are ot languages | 09:32 |
| ActionParsnip | marz: they are text editors, like notepad in WIndows | 09:32 |
| ActionParsnip | marz: I code some basic bash stuff using vi | 09:32 |
| marz | doebi: Oh, so you can use anything in vim. That a relief | 09:32 |
| doebi | vim is simply an editor | 09:33 |

| doebi | marz: we cant give a fast answer cause there is none | 09:34 |

| effbiai | hi, how can i get grub to use "fallback mode" all the time? when it uses high resolution it almost all the time freezes. when i reboot, it seems to go into a follback mode with low graphics. how can i force grub to use this mode all the time? | 09:36 |
| doebi | marz: do whatever you feel like | 09:36 |
| riply | @marz, if you're totally new to bash, I'd advice using an easier editor like nano or vim, vi is complex | 09:39 |

| ss_haze | how can ubuntu sytes give lubuntu as alternative if you get crucial bugs like that | 11:31 |
| ss_haze | on LTS | 11:31 |
| RajeevK | jrib: Ok. I have configured product import system in drupal by excel sheet. Where I give path of the image & the program copy that image from that path and paste in this folder | 11:31 |
| cfhowlett | ss_haze, may or may not be a bug. may or may not be an ubuntu issue. | 11:31 |
| RajeevK | jrib: I have given open permission to the folder where it's pasting. But the images which it's pasting is not being displayed in browser | 11:32 |
| dylancl | So, guys, I read a lot of tutorials about how to boot from a USB disk, but my laptop won't find the USB when pressing F9 to select where it should boot from | 11:32 |
| dylancl | Any help? | 11:32 |
| RajeevK | jrib: I checked the image file permission and it show locked | 11:32 |
| cfhowlett | dylancl, do you get the bios menu ? | 11:32 |
| jrib | RajeevK: what do you mean by "given open permission to the folder where it's pasting"? I don't know what that means. | 11:32 |
| dylancl | No, I was in the Boot Device Options | 11:33 |
| dylancl | But I can go to BIOS setup | 11:33 |
| RajeevK | jrib: I have folder inside drupal instance for these images, which I have set READ & WRITE to everyone | 11:33 |
| cfhowlett | dylancl, I'd suggest you do the bios setup option. you'll need to reset it to HDD boot after installation though | 11:33 |
| jrib | RajeevK: ok. Show the ls -ld output for the directory in question | 11:33 |
| dylancl | cfhowlett: any tutorials on that? ::P | 11:34 |
| RajeevK | jrib: drwxrwxrwx 2 rajeev rajeev 61440 Jun 25 16:31 bookImage | 11:34 |
| MonkeyDust | ss_haze try installing ubuntu and then lxde as etra desktop -- if you did that, try installing the lubuntu.iso | 11:34 |
| dylancl | Should I enable Floppy boot and Internal Network Adapter boot? | 11:34 |
| MonkeyDust | extra* | 11:34 |
| jrib | RajeevK: "But the images which it's pasting is not being displayed in browser". What does this mean? What is pasting where? What browser are you talking about? Web browser or file browser? | 11:35 |
| cfhowlett | dylancl, somewhere but the menu is pretty intuitive. make your bios changes to prioritize usb boot. save and reboot. after install, go back to bios and prioritize HDD boot. save and reboot | 11:35 |
| RajeevK | jrib: Web browser | 11:35 |
| ss_haze | installing whole OS because of one lxde desktop | 11:35 |
| dylancl | Yeah, I think I found it. Boot type Order, and then I an select USB Floppy | 11:35 |
| ss_haze | seriously, best fix? | 11:35 |
| jrib | RajeevK: and the rest of my questions? | 11:35 |
| cfhowlett | dylancl, last time, I turned off every boot option except usb | 11:35 |
| MonkeyDust | ss_haze other solutions do not seem to work | 11:36 |
| RajeevK | jrib: My program can copy a image from any web url or any local path and paste in this folder "bookImage" | 11:36 |
| dylancl | oh god | 11:36 |
| dylancl | so I launched from the usb | 11:36 |
| dylancl | and now it gives me something with the menu | 11:37 |
| cfhowlett | dylancl, "it" being ? | 11:37 |
| cfhowlett | !details|dylancl, "something" .... | 11:37 |
| ubottu | dylancl, "something" ....: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 11:37 |
| dylancl | GRUB4DOS 0.4.4 2009-06-20, Memory:628 / 2933M, MenuEnd:0x48C84 | 11:37 |
| jrib | RajeevK: "is not being displayed in browser". What does this mean? How are you trying to access or display them? Are you just opening the bookImage directory locally in the browser? Or are you going through your webserver? Through drupal? What exactly do you do to display them, what exactly do you expect, and what exactly is happening instead? | 11:38 |
| dylancl | I launched from the USB, and it took me straight to a screen with 4 commands. find/menu.lst, /boot/grub/menu.lst, /grub/menu.lst, commandline, reboot and halt | 11:38 |
| dylancl | Did I do something wrong? Because I used the tutorial to put my iso on my usb that somebody gave me | 11:39 |
| cfhowlett | dylancl, don't know how you made this boot USB. I've used the ubuntu startup-disk-creator tool. Pretty sure grub4dos ain't there but ... you either had a bad ISO to start with or a flaky usb. "put" the iso on usb? How did you do that? | 11:39 |
| ss_haze | it's just so sad | 11:39 |
| ss_haze | that lubuntu is so s*** | 11:39 |
| dylancl | Linux Live Usb Creator | 11:39 |
| ss_haze | how can you actually use something with no system tray | 11:39 |
| jrib | ss_haze: stop please. Feel free to ask your support question every 5-10 minutes depending on traffic, but there's no need for the other chit chat | 11:39 |
| cfhowlett | ss_haze, please vent in #ubuntu-offtopic. | 11:39 |
| RajeevK | jrib: I am creating product in drupal by importing CSV. Where other fields I fill for DB & image I copy from some location given in the CSV. System create product with my data and copy image from my given path and paste in the folder which I am talking about. So all product are created but when I am going to product page, image is not being displayed but all fields are coming | 11:40 |
| cfhowlett | dylancl, ok. let's problem solve. Did you md5sum the ISO before you burned it to usb? | 11:40 |
| dylancl | md5sum? Please, don't use diffucult words that only you guys understand | 11:41 |
| jrib | RajeevK: so displaying the image in your browser is something being done by drupal? | 11:41 |
| RajeevK | jrib: Yes | 11:41 |
| jrib | RajeevK: does drupal set the right path to the images? (check one example) | 11:41 |
| cfhowlett | !md5sum|dylancl, is a quality/integrity tool to verify that you downloaded what you were supposed to download. For that matter DOWNLOADING the iso frequently fails, thus the recommended tool is torrent. | 11:42 |
| ubottu | dylancl, is a quality/integrity tool to verify that you downloaded what you were supposed to download. For that matter DOWNLOADING the iso frequently fails, thus the recommended tool is torrent.: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 11:42 |
| ss_haze | why the hell lubuntu even exists if nobody talks on lubuntu irc channel | 11:44 |
| jrib | ss_haze: didn't we ask you to stick to support? | 11:44 |
| JRicketts_ | Anyone have a nice guide for song up a static IP through a router. I can access my server in network but from outside I get a bad gateway 502 error. I have looked everywhere. | 11:44 |
| JRicketts_ | For setting up | 11:44 |
| ss_haze | what support | 11:44 |
| cfhowlett | !ot|ss_haze, | 11:45 |
| ubottu | ss_haze,: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! | 11:45 |
| luaa | how do I compile cups from sources? | 11:45 |
| Vec_ | Hey, i am trying to install unbuntu server 12.04 on my server which does not have a monitor, i have a keyboard however. How can i successfully install ubuntuserver on this machine? Some sort of configurable ISO that would do a 100% automatic installation would be nice. I imagine installing then logging on with webmin or whatever to start configuring it. | 11:45 |
| sw | !source | luaa | 11:45 |
| ubottu | luaa: You can easily fetch a package's source with apt-get. See: http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/ch-sourcehandling.en.html | 11:45 |
| jrib | ss_haze: if no one right now knows the answer to your question, we can't help. Try other support venues or just wait and try again later. Ranting here only makes it harder to help people | 11:45 |
| DJones | !webmin | Vec_ | 11:45 |
| cfhowlett | ss_haze, few people talking means 1 of 2 things: few people using it (false) or few problems with it (likely) | 11:45 |
| ubottu | Vec_: webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. | 11:45 |
| jrib | luaa: why do you want to? | 11:45 |
| dylancl | great. The tutorial for windows appearently fails for my windows | 11:45 |
| ss_haze | that is ubuntu related question, I can't see so big community, having problems fixing one damn panel bug | 11:45 |
| luaa | ubottu: I did | 11:45 |
| cfhowlett | dylancl, you still with us? | 11:46 |
| luaa | jrib: I am using an old linux distribition | 11:46 |
| dylancl | cfhowlett: it returns that the system can't find the file or something. don't know how to translate it from dutch :/ | 11:46 |
| luaa | jrib: cups isnt working on this system | 11:46 |
| dylancl | System can't find the given (something) | 11:46 |
| jrib | ss_haze: like I said: if no one knows the answer to your question, ranting will not magically grant us knowledge. You're just making it harder to help other people. So please stop. Try the other support venues or wait patiently for new traffic and ask (your actual support question) later | 11:46 |
| cfhowlett | dylancl, that ... should not happen | 11:46 |
| jrib | luaa: what linux distribution? | 11:47 |
| DJones | Vec_: Its not something I've ever needed, but this may help https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/NetworkConsole | 11:47 |
| luaa | ubuntu 10.04 | 11:47 |
| jrib | luaa: on the desktop? | 11:47 |
| luaa | server | 11:47 |
| jrib | luaa: how isn't cups working exactly? | 11:47 |
| jrib | !support | ss_haze | 11:47 |
| ubottu | ss_haze: The official ubuntu support channel is #ubuntu. Also see http://ubuntu.com/support and http://ubuntuforums.org and http://askubuntu.com | 11:47 |
| cfhowlett | dylancl, ok, forget the md5sum check for now. make a boot usb with a different stick. they do get funky fairly often. | 11:47 |
| Vec_ | DJones: Im currently looking at the link, thanks. | 11:47 |
| dylancl | using the same tool? | 11:48 |
| DJones | Vec_: I picked that up from http://askubuntu.com/questions/13106/how-can-i-install-ubuntu-on-a-headless-machine | 11:48 |
| cfhowlett | ss_haze, support options include the forums. You should look/post there as well. | 11:48 |
| luaa | its an old version of cups my postscript doesnt work in 1.4.3 but works in 1.5.6 | 11:48 |
| cfhowlett | dylancl, I'd suggest unetbootin or startup-disk-creator | 11:48 |
| ss_haze | I googled this problem, right now, no answers from anything | 11:48 |
| luaa | @ jrib | 11:48 |
| DJones | Vec_: It might also be worth joining #ubuntu-server and asking the question in there, they may point you at the same documents, but could have another method | 11:49 |
| ActionPa1snip | luaa: considered an upgrade to Precise? | 11:49 |
| Vec_ | ok | 11:50 |
| luaa | ActionPa1snip: I want to compile cups 1.5.4 from source | 11:50 |
| MonkeyDust | ss_haze repeat your initial question every 10-15 minutes and wait until someone enters who can help you | 11:50 |
| luaa | apt get installs 1.4.3 | 11:50 |
| Vec_ | Djones: well this seems up my ally, considering it seems like i only need to configurate a .iso image to do work, then i can logon through SSH and get hands on | 11:50 |
| ActionPa1snip | luaa: no PPA for it? | 11:51 |
| ss_haze | only solution removing system try | 11:51 |
| DJones | Vec_: Good luck then, have fun | 11:51 |
| jrib | !info cups precise | 11:51 |
| ubottu | cups (source: cups): Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - server. In component main, is optional. Version 1.5.3-0ubuntu8 (precise), package size 1251 kB, installed size 4144 kB | 11:51 |
| ss_haze | but is there alternative system tray for lxde | 11:51 |
| ss_haze | don't know | 11:51 |
| Vec_ | DJones: thanks | 11:51 |
| jrib | luaa: as ActionPa1snip suggested, upgrading to precise is probably the easiest thing for you to do | 11:52 |
| ss_haze | I am waiting half an hour in lubuntu irc | 11:52 |
| cfhowlett | jrib, tyvm | 11:52 |
| caleb_ | Any idea how I could be chatting on IRC and surfing the web without being able to ping anything successfully? | 11:52 |
| cfhowlett | caleb_, no idea but I'll certainly watch this thread! | 11:53 |
| luaa | jrib: upgrading to precise? what is that | 11:54 |
| jrib | luaa: precise is 12.04 (the next LTS version after 10.04) | 11:54 |
| luaa | ow I get | 11:55 |
| jrib | luaa: it comes with cups 1.5.3 | 11:55 |
| jrib | !upgrade | luaa | 11:55 |
| ubottu | luaa: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade | 11:55 |
| jrib | luaa: on 10.04, you should be able to just make sure /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades allows for lts upgrades, then run "sudo do-release-upgrade". Then your system will upgrade to 12.04. Make sure you have backups of course in the unlikely event a meteor destroys the earth, etc. | 11:56 |
| dylancl | cfhowlett: sorry, I'm back | 11:57 |
| dylancl | so | 11:58 |
| dylancl | Just put the iso on a new stick using unetbootin? | 11:58 |
| cfhowlett | dylancl, or startup-disk-creator | 11:58 |
| dylancl | What do/did you use? | 11:58 |
| cfhowlett | dylancl, startup-disk-creator has always done it for me | 11:59 |
| dylancl | I'l download that then | 11:59 |
| cfhowlett | dylancl, it's part of ubuntu. unetbootin will also run in windows | 11:59 |
| ezra-s | startup-disk-creator has always failed for me :( | 11:59 |
| dylancl | oh | 12:00 |
| dylancl | umm cfhowlett I think the sourcefourge page of unetbootin is down... | 12:01 |
| random_ | hi all, Running into some problems trying to install fglrx-updates. i get http://pastebin.com/g934JqD2 , Anyone able to help me out. | 12:01 |
| === tvoss|quick_lunc is now known as tvoss | ||
| disPlay | dylancl here the unetbootin sourceforge page is up | 12:02 |
| dylancl | Not for me... | 12:03 |
| dylancl | Can you link the page you're on? | 12:03 |
| cfhowlett | dylancl, I can't comment. EVERYTHING is weird on Chinese internet ... | 12:04 |
| armin | hm, seems like there indeed is a bug with NetworkManager in ubuntu 13.04 when using PEAP and wpa2 enterprise as system-ca-certs in the system-connections file is being set to true, leading to NetworkManager being unable to connect. | 12:05 |
| dylancl | guess I'll go back to the program I previously in staled | 12:05 |
| BluesKaj | Hiyas all | 12:05 |
| gordonjcp | dylancl: what are you trying to do? | 12:06 |
| gordonjcp | BluesKaj: hello | 12:06 |
| ezra-s | armin, not only that, vpnc also fails with default config also fails | 12:06 |
| dylancl | umm | 12:06 |
| BluesKaj | Hi gordonjcp | 12:06 |
| dylancl | trying to put an iso on an usb | 12:06 |
| ezra-s | armin, the bug was reported as soon as 13.04 was released, and still fails, it also fails the same way in LTS | 12:06 |
| cfhowlett | gordonjcp, usb creation | 12:06 |
| armin | ezra-s: sounds bad | 12:07 |
| ezra-s | armin, you bet, resort to wpa-supplicant and manual configuration, network manager is not to be trusted | 12:07 |
| dylancl | I'm going to use LiLi usb creator | 12:07 |
| cfhowlett | dylancl, never heard of it. good luck | 12:08 |
| gordonjcp | dylancl: why OS are you using? | 12:08 |
| armin | ezra-s: oh i already wrote a wrapper bash script around wpa-supplicant as well | 12:08 |
| armin | ezra-s: networking under linux is a mess with NM, wicd and the like. | 12:08 |
| dylancl | gordonjcp: Windows, but on my other laptop (isn't working) running ubuntu | 12:08 |
| dylancl | cfhowlett: it's the one listed in the ubuntu help wiki page thingy | 12:08 |
| cfhowlett | dylancl, good enough. run with it. | 12:09 |
| ezra-s | armin, nice, I had to do something like that, got me by surprise when I had to connect to work from home after the upgrade... not nice | 12:09 |
| dylancl | oh cfhowlett | 12:09 |
| gordonjcp | dylancl: oh, well go with whatever is on the Ubuntu wiki then ;-) Sorry, can't help with Windows | 12:09 |
| dylancl | the program automaticly does a md5 check | 12:09 |
| cfhowlett | dylancl, sweeeeeeeeeeeeet | 12:09 |
| dylancl | it does a bunch actually | 12:09 |
| ezra-s | armin, I don't know what they did, 12.10 worked perfectly | 12:09 |
| armin | ezra-s: at those points i really considering going into a fucking store and buying a macbook. | 12:09 |
| cfhowlett | !language|armin, please | 12:10 |
| ubottu | armin, please: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family-friendly, polite, and professional. | 12:10 |
| armin | ezra-s: yes, no issues here with 12.10 at all. and i'm speaking about a lot of machines. | 12:10 |
| ezra-s | armin, lol, pretty expensive workaround don't you think? ;) | 12:10 |
| opti | what does one have to do to make grub2 pick up freebsd and add it to the boot menu with everything else? | 12:10 |
| armin | ezra-s: sure, but i could afford it and need a machine that just works. considering those .DS_Store nightmares and imagining my life in a golden cage still keeps me from doing it. | 12:11 |
| ezra-s | armin, for office work sometimes is best to stick to a more stable distro, since LTS does fail in this too, maybe go back to debian | 12:11 |
| cfhowlett | opti, good question for freebsd forums ... | 12:11 |
| dylancl | autoreport, md5, recognition, cleaning, full cleaning, copy, moving_renaming, hiding, keyboard_detection, boot_text, persistence, bootector, vbox cleaning, autorun, feedback for beta, finalhelp, netbook warning, force 3rdparty format, fore iso mode, graphical safe mode | 12:11 |
| dylancl | Should I disable any of those? | 12:11 |
| opti | considering i'm running update-grub from ubuntu, i fail to see how | 12:11 |
| cfhowlett | dylancl, I'd say ... no | 12:11 |
| armin | ezra-s: yes 2 of my co-workers use debian testing on their desktops, and one even uses debian stable. | 12:11 |
| dylancl | Alright. It's creating a Live USB | 12:11 |
| ezra-s | armin, don't give up on Linux, it just a matter of finding the distro that works for you and stay with it, upgrading to non LTS/stable releases bring this... | 12:12 |
| dylancl | Also | 12:12 |
| dylancl | On my laptop with ubuntu, I did boot in the command thing | 12:12 |
| dylancl | and it said: Error 8: Kernel must be loaded before booting | 12:12 |
| ikonia | dylancl: that's grub - you've not booted | 12:13 |
| ezra-s | armin, you never run short of options when using Linux really | 12:13 |
| armin | ezra-s: i mean seriously, i've tried a lot. i've done the systemd migration on arch linux, some f*ck*p*s on ubuntu, the gnome3 mess with fedora, tried to find my way through cinnamon and mate with mint, ran into several bugs with unity/kde/xfce and still suffer from tearing with non-opengl-desktops in general. i'm sick of working ON my system rather than working WITH it. | 12:13 |
| ezra-s | armin, I recommend openbox or anything that does not need compositing | 12:14 |
| armin | ezra-s: i've been a die-hard fluxbox user for years as well and am even hacking on i3 occasionally. | 12:15 |
| ezra-s | armin, I'm with kde now in 13.04, all effects disabled, quite liking it for the first time... | 12:15 |
| armin | ezra-s: i just use kde here right now on an arch linux box and it mostly does the job for me, but kde has flickering and weird side-effects-bugs on my work-notebook (dell latitude e6230) | 12:15 |
| armin | ezra-s: the latter one using ubuntu 13.04 | 12:16 |
| armin | ezra-s: it just seems impossible to use a unique way on all distributions. | 12:16 |
| armin | ezra-s: you just seek for the way that has the smallest amount of pain and try to get around with that. | 12:16 |
| armin | ezra-s: and really, it annoys me pretty much. | 12:16 |
| armin | ezra-s: and i usually configure my environments to the bone. | 12:17 |
| ezra-s | armin, have you tried disabling desktop effects in configuration? | 12:18 |
| ss_haze | I don't know what should I do with lubuntu irc chat, where nobody answers anything | 12:18 |
| Quix86 | what's the easiest way to sync files locally, i.e., copy doccuments in a folder to an external drive every time the drive is attached, and/or when files are modified? | 12:18 |
| caz1121 | Please help.... Since an overnight update from 12.04 to 12.10 i am stuck at the command prompt with no screens found error, i am a ubuntu virgin before yesterday, love it but i am pulling my har out.. again very NOOB, but assume it is driver related as the screen is able to show the command line | 12:18 |
| Quix86 | caz1121 have you tried 'startx'? | 12:18 |
| ikonia | caz1121: why did you install 12.04 and update if this is your first day | 12:18 |
| ikonia | caz1121: why not just install the version you want to use | 12:18 |
| cfhowlett | caz1121, 12.04 is supported for 5 years. 12.10 is ... NOT, but you just HAD to upgrade? | 12:19 |
| ikonia | caz1121: as this is only a 1 day old install, simpley download the version you want and install it cleanly | 12:19 |
| armin | ezra-s: i've really been playing around with all that for years. | 12:19 |
| caz1121 | startx gives the error in question | 12:19 |
| ss_haze | canonical should cut support for such projects as lubuntu, if they can't fix such thing as system tray in long term release, | 12:19 |
| ikonia | caz1121: just re-install with the correct version | 12:19 |
| cfhowlett | !ot|ss_haze, | 12:19 |

| armin | ezra-s: tried different rendering backends, different graphics cards, compositing and not, modified effects, changed the code of them, etc. | 12:19 |
| caz1121 | A friend installed 12.04, when he left he advised updating to the newer versions.. I started the update last night, rebooted today to find the issue at hand? Help is greatly appreciated | 12:20 |
| ikonia | caz1121: ok - download version you want, install it | 12:21 |
| DylanCl | Ugh when this isn't going to work, I'll be stuck with a broken laptop forever | 12:21 |
| ikonia | caz1121: I would suggest downloading either 12.04 for long term support or 13.04 for the current version | 12:21 |
| ikonia | caz1121: then install that and you're done | 12:21 |
| caz1121 | many thanks... Image burn the ISO and boot from disk? | 12:21 |
| JMarshall832 | Greetings! I have moved (and had to give some downtime) to a laptop come server running ubuntu studio. The HDD is encrypted and I forgot the original password for login, let alone the pass phrase. I have reset the password for login, but get stuck in a login screen loop. is there any way to get the data off the hard drive? | 12:21 |
| ikonia | caz1121: it's that simple, yes | 12:21 |
| cfhowlett | JMarshall832, pretty much the point of encryption ... I'd say no. | 12:22 |
| caz1121 | ikonia:much appreciated, ill do that now | 12:22 |
| Cosmino | ciao ;) | 12:22 |

| Antar | hi everybody | 12:23 |
| cfhowlett | Antar, greetings | 12:23 |
| Antar | :) | 12:23 |
| jpmh | i have a script that I need to execute when the system comes up - what is the simplest way to cause this? | 12:23 |
| foofoobar | Hi. I have ubuntu 13.04 and universe activated. But "gnomebaker" is not found with apt-get - why? | 12:23 |
| ikonia | !info gnomebaker | 12:23 |
| foofoobar | jpmh: upstart | 12:23 |
| ubottu | Package gnomebaker does not exist in raring | 12:24 |
| ikonia | foofoobar: because that package is not in the repo, check the package name | 12:24 |
| Antar | i want to merge tow partitions using ubuntu i am using live usb | 12:24 |
| cfhowlett | !gpartd|Antar, | 12:24 |
| foofoobar | ikonia: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GnomeBaker | 12:24 |
| cfhowlett | !gparted|Antar, | 12:24 |
| ubottu | Antar,: gparted is a !GTK/!Gnome !GUI partitioning program. Type « sudo apt-get install gparted » in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php | 12:24 |
| Antar | without losing my data ?? | 12:24 |
| ikonia | foofoobar: yes and ? | 12:24 |
| cfhowlett | Antar, um yes, but you WILL backup essential data first. Right? | 12:25 |
| foofoobar | ikonia: they called it "gnomebaker" in the ubuntu docs.. | 12:25 |
| foofoobar | How else should I find it | 12:25 |
| ikonia | foofoobar doesn't mean it's in the version you are using | 12:25 |
| Antar | what about my data | 12:25 |
| foofoobar | ikonia: ah, okay | 12:25 |
| foofoobar | So what can I do now? | 12:25 |
| ikonia | foofoobar: in terms of what ? | 12:25 |
| foofoobar | ikonia: I need a tool to burn some music | 12:25 |
| cfhowlett | Antar, *ideally* it's safe. | 12:25 |
| cfhowlett | !brasero|foofoobar, | 12:26 |
| Antar | cfhowlett if i installed windows after that | 12:26 |
| Antar | do i have problems ? | 12:26 |
| cfhowlett | Antar, see now, details matter. install windows FIRST | 12:26 |
| ikonia | foofoobar: https://help.ubuntu.com/13.04/ubuntu-help/index.html overview on how to do things in ubuntu 13.04 | 12:27 |
| Antar | ok | 12:27 |
| ezra-s | Antar, microsoft windows does not care a bit about other OS's installed in the same machine and won't hesitate to erase the boot record to install its boot manager without considering any linux distro or whatever you have in there, Ubuntu will consider the windows installation and will let you keep booting windows, that's why people suggest installing windows first, so you avoid extra work and hassle. | 12:30 |
| jpmh | foobArrr: i pulled the man page - can you give me a quick way to use upstart to start my script | 12:31 |
| DylanCl | cfhowlett: Sorry, it's going to take a bit longer. My sister has claimed the computer I was using so I had to re-download the iso | 12:31 |
| cfhowlett | DylanCl, um about that ... you ARE using a torrent? | 12:32 |
| DylanCl | No, I just downloaded it fromhttp://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop | 12:32 |
| smoke_ | i just ran a wine app that changed my screen resolution all wierd in xwindows is it possible to revert the changes so my res looks normal again without rebooting? | 12:32 |
| cfhowlett | DylanCl, downloads frequently get corrupted. the recommended practice is to torrent as hash checking is built in ... | 12:33 |
| smoke_ | i killed all the wine processes but it left my screen all zoomed in | 12:33 |
| DylanCl | Please don't tell me that I have to re-download it because the download just finished :P | 12:33 |
| DylanCl | Ugh, alright. Where can I find the torrent? | 12:33 |
| cfhowlett | DylanCl, md5sum check to verify | 12:33 |
| DylanCl | Well | 12:33 |
| DylanCl | The program I have auto does that | 12:33 |
| cfhowlett | DylanCl, goot enought | 12:34 |
| chunkyhead | guys little help, i was installing oracle java 7 but i quit it was stuck. now whenever i try to install anything it gives me thing warning http://paste.ubuntu.com/5798382/ | 12:34 |
| DylanCl | cfhowlett: how many memory should I give? | 12:35 |
| DylanCl | How many MB's | 12:35 |
| cfhowlett | DylanCl, 3 gigs? | 12:35 |
| susundberg | chunkyhead: you are running some other package manger | 12:35 |
| ikonia | chunkyhead: quickest way - just reboot to make sure nothing has a lock on a file | 12:35 |
| chunkyhead | just dpkg | 12:35 |
| DylanCl | Alright | 12:35 |
| ikonia | chunkyhead: you can kill processes etc, but just reboot then you know it's clean | 12:35 |
| DylanCl | It's going | 12:35 |
| chunkyhead | let me reboot hold on ikonia brb | 12:35 |
| chunkyhead | won't logging off serve the problem? ikonia | 12:35 |
| ikonia | chunkyhead: just reboot | 12:36 |

| ezra-s | Aussie_matt, what kind of problems are you expecting? | 12:56 |
| cfhowlett | Aussie_matt, the downloaded sputnik iso should run without issue ... | 12:56 |
| mick27 | what is the command in raring with upstart to enable or disable a daemon at boot ? | 12:56 |
| cfhowlett | DylanCl, so ... ? | 12:56 |
| Aussie_matt | ezra-s: plenty given the device ships with win8 lol. seriously though, is the new safe boot causing install issues? | 12:56 |

| cfhowlett | DylanCl, good enough. | 13:07 |
| DylanCl | Well, first I was running ubuntu 12.04, then I decided to update | 13:07 |
| mick27 | ezra-s: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/cookbook/#disabling-a-job-from-automatically-starting | 13:07 |
| DylanCl | but I just get a blackscreen when I launch | 13:07 |
| cfhowlett | DylanCl, so you DID install, right? | 13:08 |
| DylanCl | Install as in? | 13:08 |
| cfhowlett | Aussie_matt, I only tested it once then switched to ubuntustudio | 13:08 |
| cfhowlett | DylanCl, put in on the hard drive | 13:08 |
| cfhowlett | !nomodeset|DylanCl, | 13:08 |
| ubottu | DylanCl,: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 13:08 |
| DylanCl | I think so..I did the update in the terminal | 13:08 |
| Aussie_matt | cfhowlett: ok thanks | 13:08 |
| cfhowlett | DylanCl, I think it's a nomodeset error | 13:08 |
| DylanCl | I tried the nomodeset thing | 13:08 |
| DylanCl | but it didn't do anything | 13:08 |
| DylanCl | still gave me a black screen | 13:09 |
| DylanCl | A black screen with a '-' in the top left corner | 13:09 |
| cfhowlett | DylanCl, yeah that's the terminal and generally means you failed at boot. It's a grub menu | 13:09 |
| ezra-s | mick27, thank you | 13:09 |
| DylanCl | So, what should I do? | 13:09 |
| cfhowlett | DylanCl, assuming good ISO, and good USB, and NOT a nomodeset issue ... I officially don't know what to do next. ask in the channel, give details | 13:10 |
| DylanCl | Wait | 13:10 |
| DylanCl | Is the tutorial outdated? | 13:10 |
| cfhowlett | DylanCl, tutorial? | 13:10 |
| DylanCl | >That tutorial about nomodeset | 13:10 |
| cfhowlett | DylanCl, no, it should be pretty darn current | 13:10 |
| DylanCl | then there's something different on my side | 13:11 |
| DylanCl | after | 13:12 |
| DylanCl | after quiet splash\ | 13:12 |
| DylanCl | there's also $vt_handoff | 13:12 |
| ehhh | starts with a $ right | 13:12 |
| cfhowlett | DylanCl, turn off quite splash and see if you get some error messages to work with | 13:12 |
| ehhh | i tried nomodeset myself yesterday i couldn't get back to the os or anything after updating to 12.10 so i decided to just run 12.04 for now | 13:13 |
| vladnosferatu | hello, i change the boot to text mode, how i start x ? now ? | 13:13 |
| DylanCl | It just launched a console | 13:13 |
| DylanCl | where I need to login | 13:13 |
| ehhh | since i couldn't get usb to boot properly on that computer | 13:13 |
| ehhh | reboot | 13:13 |
| DylanCl | And redo the thing? | 13:14 |
| ehhh | did you click ctrl+x after editing the grub boot sequence | 13:14 |
| DylanCl | YeahRight: h | 13:14 |
| DylanCl | oh I quoted somebody | 13:14 |
| DylanCl | I mean yeah | 13:14 |
| DylanCl | so just delete quiet splash | 13:14 |
| DylanCl | and nothing else? | 13:15 |
| DylanCl | or quiet splash\ | 13:15 |
| ehhh | take away quiet splash and i'm pretty sure you had to add something or put between | 13:15 |
| DylanCl | nomodeset? | 13:15 |
| ehhh | oh yeah, yeah | 13:15 |
| DylanCl | and do I remove $vt_handoff? | 13:16 |
| ehhh | just leave it there | 13:16 |
| cfhowlett | DylanCl, COULD be that the extra options whacked you. make a new usb, ISO only standard options no extras | 13:16 |
| DylanCl | Can I try unetboot? or should I stick with the old program | 13:17 |
| napster | My wifi adapter looks out of order. It gets connected for a while and then disconnects after some time, say 2-3 minutes. How can I troubleshoot this issue? | 13:17 |
| cfhowlett | DylanCl, my preference is familiarity is with unetbootin but that's just me ... | 13:18 |
| DylanCl | Well | 13:18 |
| ehhh | i tried all of them yesterday to no avail, what is your basic problem ? the os won't load after update? | 13:18 |
| DylanCl | for me the sourcefourge site of unetbootin is down | 13:18 |
| ehhh | upgrade* | 13:18 |
| DylanCl | are you talking to me ehhh ? | 13:18 |
| ehhh | yeah i'm slinging stuff everywhere | 13:18 |
| DylanCl | haha no problems | 13:18 |
| DylanCl | but yeah | 13:18 |
| DylanCl | I updated in the terminal from ubuntu 12.04 to xubuntu 12.10 | 13:18 |
| DylanCl | After seeing the blue Xubuntu 12.10 screen where it's loading | 13:19 |
| DylanCl | it just stops, goes to a black screen | 13:19 |
| DylanCl | with a '-' at the top left corner | 13:19 |
| ehhh | yeah I had the same problem yesterday except i just tried to upgrade to 12.10 from 12.04 | 13:19 |
| DylanCl | that's downgrade | 13:19 |
| DylanCl | and I heard downgrading is near impossible on ubuntu | 13:19 |
| ehhh | no you need to read that line again and interpret it properly :P | 13:20 |
| DylanCl | oh | 13:20 |
| ehhh | lol | 13:20 |
| DylanCl | noooo not cfhowlett | 13:20 |
| DylanCl | I'm going to try to update from 12.10 to 13.04 | 13:21 |
| DylanCl | Maybe that will work | 13:21 |
| ehhh | basically what i ended up with was running 12.04 because i could install it from a cd-rom, i've had this problem before when upgrading earlier basically every time | 13:21 |
| ehhh | then i'll try a clean install of xubuntu 13.04 when i can get the dvds | 13:21 |

| bob__ | reisio: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5798802/ | 15:18 |
| goblin | ok, some clarification, its not a terminal application, its a terminal emulator application, and I'm using ubuntu 13.04 | 15:18 |
| SolarisBoy | reisio: yea - so i found only way which is painstaking, it's the viewport way which seems broken in devilspie2 - its basically calculating the size of the desktop and splitting it into "view ports" and then it uses those coords to place things properly - which really sounds painful =) | 15:19 |
| blz | Okay, so removing the line "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu/ raring partner" gets rid of the errors. Does anybody see what's wrong with that line? | 15:19 |
| blz | Because I'll be damned if I can find anything wrong with it =/ | 15:19 |

| shah0516 | Hello, I'm new to ubuntu. My question is, when I connect to my WiFi router from ubuntu, all other devices are unable to connect to the same WiFi. However, when I boot into Windows 7,(in same laptop) other devices are able to connect WiFi. Can anyone please let me know how to fix this? Thanks for your time :) | 16:24 |
| === Aww_ is now known as EvilAww | ||
| holstein | mbnoimi: as i said, *anything* can be use via VNC connection or forwarding X.. such as synaptic.. or the curses GUI in the terminal via ssh.. depends on what you want to do, really | 16:24 |
| anoop | holstein: Can I use a live usb containing ubuntu for reinstalling the grub? | 16:25 |
| holstein | shah0516: i would isolate that for certain.. run some tests.. i would disable encryption, try a different access point.. try different drivers.. etc | 16:25 |
| mbnoimi | holstein: I told you I want to use synaptic remotely | 16:25 |
| holstein | anoop: the links i gave give explanations on how that is donw | 16:25 |
| d4rkn30 | is 13.04 - Server 64 bit release only? | 16:26 |
| holstein | mbnoimi: then, you can forward X over ssh, or vnc connection to the desktop.. among other solututions im sure.. | 16:26 |
| Pici | d4rkn30: no. | 16:26 |
| DJones | d4rkn30: No, you get the option to choose on http://www.ubuntu.com/download/server | 16:26 |
| mbnoimi | holstein: how can I use forward x? | 16:26 |
| Pici | d4rkn30: You can download it from http://releases.ubuntu.com/13.04/ if for some reason Ubuntu.com is only showing you the 64 bit release | 16:26 |
| d4rkn30 | Pici, Thanks and it was only showing 64 | 16:27 |
| holstein | mbnoimi: i would just use apt-get in the terminal.. or aptitude.. that is more appropriate, though, not GUI.. | 16:27 |
| holstein | d4rkn30: you can see the server x86 version here http://releases.ubuntu.com/raring/ | 16:28 |
| mbnoimi | holstein: but both of them can't manage packages.... I want real alternative to synaptic | 16:28 |
| shah0516 | thanks holstein I will try disabling encryption | 16:28 |
| holstein | mbnoimi: both of those *do* and *are* package mangers.. though, you may not prefer them.. | 16:29 |

| hellrazor | is there a way do this with apt-get? | 16:37 |

| hellrazor | apt-get is to powerfull | 16:39 |
| holstein | hellrazor: then, i would just search. i too find apt-get powerful, but not very easily intuitive for such tasks. so, when i wanted what you are wanting, i used the menu item in synaptic.. it took less than a minute.. otherwise, im sure you can search for apt commands for something similar | 16:40 |

| oblio | usr13: yes, that's installed, volumes are up | 16:47 |
| holstein | oblio: consider just installing lubuntu, and adding whatever desktop you want, if not LXDE.. lubuntu is pluse only | 16:47 |

| oblio | holstein: does ubuntu do dirty things to my sound configuration? | 16:49 |
| holstein | oblio: you havent mentioned a problem.. you stated a preference that lubuntu matches more closely.. its just a suggestion.. | 16:49 |

| prometheus199 | wilee-nilee: no, it had windows 7. | 17:36 |
| luke_ | i will restart first then do subz3r0 soltion | 17:36 |
| subz3r0 | im pretty sure it wont work ;) | 17:36 |
| jrib | msh210: throw in the .conf file for mysql in /etc/init/... that will be our next step if nothing obvious comes up from your pastebin | 17:36 |
| wilee-nilee | prometheus199, are you on the live cd right now or in the ubuntu install? | 17:36 |
| subz3r0 | you can edit grub if there are some issues about the backlight. But if its working correctly ubuntu will change the backlight to maximum after every reboot | 17:37 |
| prometheus199 | but when i was trying to reinstall windows, it said it couldn't recognize my HDD because both of the partitions were formatted as NTFS or some shit | 17:37 |
| prometheus199 | wilee-nilee, I'm live booted from usb atm | 17:37 |
| jrib | msh210: also look for interesting things in /var/log/mysql (especially mysql.err) and maybe /var/log/syslog | 17:37 |
| prometheus199 | installing to system atm | 17:37 |
| wilee-nilee | prometheus199, run sudo fdisk-l and pastebin the text, and please don't swear. ;) | 17:37 |
| luke_ | genii - your help appreciated, brightness issue now fixed thanks | 17:38 |
| Sebo | Hi, Can you tell me which do I need to have installed to let sFTP transfers for users who already have ssh access to the /bin/bash shell. | 17:38 |
| jrib | msh210: erm, actually there is both /var/log/mysql/error.log and /var/log/mysql.err that may be worth looking at | 17:38 |
| prometheus199 | oh, sorry. | 17:38 |
| daftykins | Sebo: if they can SSH, they can SCP/SFTP. | 17:38 |
| prometheus199 | and wilee-nilee I honestly (as a windows guy trying to get into this) have no idea how to run that | 17:38 |
| prometheus199 | lol | 17:38 |
| genii | luke_: You're welcome | 17:38 |
| subz3r0 | luke_: but that cant be. or i understand you wrong :) because ubuntu will set the brightness to maximum after reboot ;) | 17:38 |

| wilee-nilee | prometheus199, Ah, I suspect that is your problem, you can only have 4 primary partitions on a single HD or 3 primaries and a extended, which can have many logical type partitions. In order to help you we need to see what is there, the caommand in a terminal sudo fdisk -l will tel us. | 17:40 |
| subz3r0 | luke_: sorry, so i understand you wrong. Thought you just dont want to have it on maximum after reboot. I think its really annoying that ubuntu does not save the actual state and set it back to that state after reboot | 17:41 |

| prometheus199 | well i only have two primary partitions, but I don't know where/how to run that | 17:42 |

| Sebo | daftykins: and standard shell `scp ` from ubuntu to that ubuntu serwer works fine :) | 17:45 |
| daftykins | Sebo: it's a client that lets you use either protocol. it was just an example, i'm sure you can test it whichever way is more convenient for you. | 17:45 |

| coolack | I'm having trouble booting fedora 18 with ubuntu bootloader | 18:04 |
| coolack | I added them the bootmenu, but it doesn't load up with the new kernel | 18:05 |
| coolack | only the old one | 18:05 |
| ikonia | coolack: then you've setup the boot option wrong | 18:05 |
| prometheus199 | wilee-nilee, when i right click it it doesn't give me the option to unmount | 18:05 |
| coolack | ikonia do i need to edit it? | 18:05 |
| ikonia | coolack: if it's wrong....yes | 18:05 |
| prometheus199 | only available options are swapoff, manage flags, & information | 18:06 |
| coolack | ikonia: hmm I'm not sure what to put. should i ask in fedora channel? | 18:06 |
| wilee-nilee | prometheus199, Sorry swap off is what you want. | 18:06 |
| prometheus199 | & how what will that do? lol | 18:07 |
| ikonia | coolack: first question, is the grub install you are using from ubuntu or fedora | 18:07 |
| === jmmy is now known as tp43_ | ||
| coolack | its the ubuntu one | 18:07 |
| ikonia | coolack: ok, next question, how did you add Fedora's option to it | 18:07 |
| coolack | ikonia: it worked till i updated the kernel in fedora. I can still lload old one but now new one | 18:07 |
| prometheus199 | did it, nothing looks different | 18:07 |
| wilee-nilee | prometheus199, If you look at gparted you see key next to sda7 the swap and sda4 the extended, thw swap off will remove those keys so we can work with the HD. | 18:08 |
| coolack | ikonia: from ubuntu. i mounted drives and did sudo update-grub | 18:08 |
| coolack | ikonia: i made sure they are not lvm partitions | 18:08 |
| prometheus199 | yeah.. what's the next step? | 18:08 |
| wilee-nilee | prometheus199, Are the keys gone now? | 18:08 |
| prometheus199 | by the way, thank you for the help | 18:08 |
| prometheus199 | yeah | 18:08 |
| ikonia | coolack: yes, this is a problem with grub2 and dual boot, the config files are held in /etc/grub on ubuntu - so if Fedora makes an update there is no way for Fedora to update grub, as it can't modify /etc in the ubuntu install | 18:08 |
| ikonia | coolack: you'll need to update it manually, which is a poor design. | 18:08 |
| prometheus199 | still the red ! by sda5 though | 18:08 |
| Snype | Myrtti, whatcha smoking? | 18:08 |
| coolack | ikonia: hmm I'm not sure how to do that | 18:09 |
| ikonia | coolack: ok, the settings are in /etc/grub - look at them, find the fedora entry and you'll see the old kernel settings, update them and then run update-grub | 18:09 |
| coolack | ikonia: do you mean editing the text from the ubuntu grub menu? | 18:09 |
| wilee-nilee | prometheus199, No problem I think we are best here to just delate all the partitions and let ubuntu auto install, so delete all partitions leaving the sda4 as the last one. Right clicks on each wll have a delete option. | 18:09 |
| coolack | ikonia: ok lemme try that tks | 18:09 |
| prometheus199 | there's no sda4 | 18:10 |
| wilee-nilee | prometheus199, YOU have to click the grenn check at the top of gparted to run the delete after you see the process showng in the bottom of gparted. | 18:10 |

| wilee-nilee | prometheus199, Sorry my mistake I meant sda2, my bad | 18:12 |
| ikonia | coolack: look in there and find the one with the fedora entry in it | 18:12 |

| prometheus199 | gotchya | 18:12 |
| wilee-nilee | Doh in the word of homer simpson. prometheus199 | 18:13 |
| prometheus199 | done | 18:13 |
| legion59 | Lo all | 18:13 |
| wilee-nilee | prometheus199, I would delete all of them including sda1, unless you want to try to see if can be fixed. I would just remove all and run a autoinstall if it were me. | 18:14 |
| legion59 | by chance ,...does anyone have any info on Bluetooth | 18:14 |
| coolack | ikonia: hmm i'm opening all files in the text editor i don't see any mention of fedora? | 18:14 |
| prometheus199 | autoinstall wilee-nilee ? | 18:14 |
| legion59 | im lookin gfor info for using a bluetooth headset for skype | 18:14 |
| ikonia | coolack: it won't say "fedora" directly, it should have a reference to scan for additional operating systems | 18:14 |
| wilee-nilee | prometheus199, The install has a install gu with several choices the top one is just install to the HD. | 18:15 |
| wilee-nilee | gui | 18:15 |
| coolack | ikonia: I see files 00_header, 05_debian_theme, 10_linux, 10_linux_xen 10_memtest86+, 30_os-prober, 30_uefi-firmware, 40_custom, 41_custom | 18:15 |
| prometheus199 | so the same installer (the one below the Dash Home on the left task bar) that wasn't working before | 18:15 |
| prometheus199 | so... delete sda1 then run that again? | 18:15 |
| ikonia | coolack: ok, so 10_linux, 30_os-prober and the two custom ones would be the ones to check, are you using uefi ? | 18:16 |
| coolack | ikonia: i opened them with gedit and searched for fedora | 18:16 |
| coolack | ikonia: i'm new to linux lol | 18:16 |
| ikonia | coolack: did you just read what I said ?? it will not say "fedora" | 18:16 |
| ikonia | coolack: why is that funny "lol" ? | 18:16 |
| prometheus199 | mk wilee-nilee; deleted them all - now which installation option should I choose? | 18:16 |
| coolack | ikonia: so what am I lookin for? | 18:17 |
| ikonia | coolack: I've just told you ] | 18:17 |
| wilee-nilee | prometheus199, I would, make sure the HD shows no partitions in gparted. What may have happened here is that when booting from a usb, sometimes the usb and HD get reversed, and the grub bootloader gets put on the usb's mbr rather then the HD's | 18:17 |
| ikonia | coolack: why are you dual booting a complex system if you are new to linux ? | 18:17 |
| coolack | ikonia: i check those 2 files and look for what? | 18:17 |
| ikonia | coolack: why are you not using a linux system to grasp the basics ? | 18:17 |
| prometheus199 | well now it's showing everything as unallocated | 18:17 |
| coolack | you know why pc gaming and linux is unpopular. not because of any learning curves. Since there are many programs and sports in real life with 1000x the learning curves. but because of rotten arrogant communities noone wants to associate with. | 18:18 |
| prometheus199 | installation time! | 18:18 |
| wilee-nilee | prometheus199, The install 4th or so screen is the install options, it has a install to HD, something like that, I do this without thinking generally as I always manually install as I have 4 OS on my HD | 18:18 |
| ikonia | coolack: I suggest you re-access where the problem is, | 18:19 |
| ikonia | coolack: you're running before walking, and unable to follow basic instructions due to the learning curve | 18:19 |
| ikonia | coolack: nothing rotten or arrogant about people advising you of that | 18:19 |
| wilee-nilee | prometheus199, If you don't get the ubuntu boot on the install, don't try any fix just boot the live session, and we will go from there. However I think you will be set. | 18:19 |

| ikonia | coolack: after you're little rant about how arrogant and rotten the community is I'm going to leave this problem alone now, and next time I suggest you consider if calling people and the community helping you names is a good way to get help. | 18:20 |
| coolack | ikonia: i guess that means you don't know | 18:20 |
| coolack | ikonia: bye | 18:20 |
| ikonia | coolack: I know quite well, hence why I'm able to dual boot, but as you said "bye" | 18:20 |
| coolack | ikonia: it becomes a selfulfilling prophecy when you drive away newbies | 18:21 |
| legion59 | Ikonia,..is there any info on bluetooth for skype or am i beeting a dead hourse on that subject | 18:21 |
| prometheus199 | alright wilee-nilee starting it now | 18:21 |
| ikonia | coolack: no-one is driving you away, you've making a problem calling people names and telling me I don't know the answer, when clearly I do because I've just explained the design flaw, so "you" drive help away. | 18:21 |
| ikonia | legion59: skype has nothing to do with bluetooth, what's up ? | 18:21 |
| coolack | ikonia: this is normal in the linux community. You insulted me first and i give it right back | 18:22 |
| legion59 | jsut trying to get bluetooth to connect to skype | 18:22 |
| legion59 | skype dosent see the bluetooth | 18:22 |
| ikonia | coolack: no-one has insulted you, and if you feel you have been insulted the way to respond is not with insults. | 18:22 |
| coolack | ikonia: its selfishness and the need to feel superior to other human beings | 18:22 |
| ikonia | coolack: and again, you've just taken another dig at the linux community helping you | 18:22 |
| coolack | ikonia: is why linux is unpopular lol | 18:22 |
| prometheus199 | wilee-nilee: "ubi-partman failed with exit code 2" | 18:22 |
| ikonia | coolack: it's not "lol" hence why you are trying to use it, | 18:22 |
| coolack | ikonia: i can do without the insults | 18:22 |
| ikonia | legion59: ahh ok, | 18:22 |
| gxx | coolack, gtfo | 18:22 |
| prometheus199 | does the USB need to stay in? | 18:22 |
| LittleJoe | ? | 18:23 |
| ikonia | coolack: no-one is instulting you | 18:23 |
| caius_ | hi all. i have a small problem with my wifi. it connect and after 5 min disconnect again. it is nothing wrong with my router or the wireless connection because i have tried the connection on 2 other pc`s and it works fine. any idea of a solution? | 18:23 |
| coolack | ikonia: if u can't help me just say so | 18:23 |
| legion59 | Coolack,..linux is for people with smarts,...Are you smart? | 18:23 |
| ikonia | gxx: that is not a welcome response | 18:23 |
| gxx | i'll insult him | 18:23 |
| gxx | lol | 18:23 |
| ikonia | gxx: no - you won't | 18:23 |
| Pici | legion59: thats not helping either. | 18:23 |
| ikonia | gxx: it's not funny, don't do it | 18:23 |
| legion59 | sorry | 18:23 |
| legion59 | :) | 18:23 |
| coolack | and this is supposeldy the nicest linux community? | 18:23 |
| holstein | !volunteers | coolack | 18:23 |
| ubottu | coolack: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines | 18:23 |
| ikonia | coolack: as I explained, I can help you as I understand the problem, | 18:23 |
| gxx | coolack, go back to windows | 18:23 |
| coolack | no wonder everyone would rather use cellphones lol | 18:23 |
| holstein | coolack: i would be glad to hear your issue | 18:23 |
| ikonia | legion59: lets look at you're issue a bit more | 18:23 |
| legion59 | K | 18:23 |
| legion59 | well | 18:23 |
| coolack | hello holstein | 18:24 |
| ikonia | legion59: I'd suggest initially seperating skype from the issue. | 18:24 |
| coolack | holstein: i'm trying to triple boot | 18:24 |
| legion59 | so far ive got the bluetooth working and paired | 18:24 |
| ikonia | legion59: look at pairing bluetooth with your install first, then moving onto skype once you know that's working | 18:24 |
| legion59 | it is seen in the OS | 18:24 |
| legion59 | works good there | 18:24 |
| coolack | holstein: everythign worked until i updated kernel in fedora 18. it doens't load right now | 18:24 |
| ikonia | legion59: ok - so how have you verified it's paired and working | 18:24 |
| legion59 | im just able to get the bluetooth headset to be seen in skype | 18:24 |
| legion59 | Iko: yes | 18:24 |
| legion59 | it works | 18:24 |
| ikonia | legion59: "how" have you verified it's paired and working in ubuntu | 18:25 |
| coolack | holstein: it shows up in the boot menu goes through the process...but gets stuck on a black screen. the old kernel still loads | 18:25 |
| legion59 | AND as a matter of fact | 18:25 |
| bxfbgfg | ewerw | 18:25 |
| legion59 | ive ahd it working several time other under 13.04 | 18:25 |
| legion59 | but | 18:25 |
| holstein | coolack: the older fedora kernel? | 18:25 |
| legion59 | i ended up reinstalling | 18:25 |
| legion59 | just this morning | 18:25 |
| legion59 | and | 18:25 |
| FloodBot1 | legion59: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 18:25 |
| coolack | holstein: yes the older fedora kernel loads, but not the new one | 18:25 |
| prometheus199 | wilee-nilee: http://i.imgur.com/amueXdY.jpg | 18:25 |
| legion59 | i knew that the headset would be an issue | 18:25 |
| ikonia | legion59: I'll ask one more time | 18:25 |
| ikonia | legion59: "how" have you verified it's paired and working in ubuntu | 18:25 |
| holstein | coolack: i would ask a fedora support channel about the kernel.. kernel upgrades break things sometimes.. doesnt matter what OS it is | 18:26 |
| ikonia | it's not a fedora issue | 18:26 |
| legion59 | I varified,..it thru the Pulse audio,...tested it with the test sound | 18:26 |
| ikonia | it's a grub issue with ubuntu | 18:26 |
| holstein | coolack: do you need help finding a fedora support channel? | 18:26 |
| coolack | holstein: no its the ubuntu grub issue ikonia is right | 18:26 |
| coolack | holstein: the new kernel works with their grub not ubuntus | 18:26 |
| holstein | coolack: have you restored grub? i would just fresh install a grub then | 18:26 |
| ikonia | no | 18:26 |
| coolack | holstein: yes | 18:26 |
| ikonia | "restore grub"??? | 18:26 |
| prometheus199_ | :# | 18:27 |
| moes | Which jre for 12.04 | 18:27 |
| wilee-nilee | prometheus199, Can you give me a picture of gparted again. Is this an apple computer perchance, or has it had gpt partitioning? | 18:27 |
| coolack | ikonai: I lol again | 18:27 |
| holstein | coolack: please lol in the OT channel.. | 18:27 |
| coolack | at he is trying to help me | 18:27 |
| ikonia | coolack: I don't know why you keep saying "lol" | 18:27 |
| coolack | *at least | 18:27 |
| prometheus199_ | nah it's an HP | 18:27 |
| coolack | like most linux users are you opposed to happiness? | 18:27 |
| holstein | if "restored" is not the proper term, appoligies.. but, you have reinstalled grub, correct coolack ? | 18:27 |
| ikonia | coolack: please stop with the random attempts at insulting people. | 18:28 |
| ikonia | holstein: there is no need to re-install grub - it won't do anything | 18:28 |
| coolack | ikonia: you just told me not to lol, what is wrong with you? | 18:28 |
| coolack | holstein: yes i have done that | 18:28 |
| prometheus199_ | wilee-nilee: http://i.imgur.com/eMYRuG1.jpg | 18:28 |
| legion59 | Ill see you all later,..GTG | 18:28 |
| ikonia | legion59: ok - so what happens when you try to use it with skpe | 18:28 |
| brijithmac | hi all, I am not able to connect to yahoo using pidgin | 18:29 |
| holstein | so, fedora grub would deal with the three OS's then ikonia ? | 18:29 |
| nightdrever | my hard drive looks like this...... http://imgbin.me/view/HVUUYDOR is it possible to extend linux partion without distroying windows and my current linux install?? | 18:29 |
| ikonia | holstein: ubuntu grub will deal with 3 os's | 18:29 |
| coolack | holstain, ubuntu is better, because the fedora grub is a whole long complicated process to add it to boot menu | 18:29 |
| === MartinS is now known as Guest2321 | ||
| holstein | ikonia: thats what i was thinking.. so, what is the plan? a custom grub line for the fedora install? | 18:29 |
| coolack | with ubuntu i just usually mount drive sudo update-grub very simple | 18:29 |
| ikonia | coolack: it's the same grub version the process is the same but fedora's design doesn't have the design flaw. | 18:29 |
| coolack | I believe i have to edit the lines in the grub menu for new kernel not sure what to put there | 18:30 |
| coolack | if I ask in fedora channel they are even more hostile then ikonia, telling me not to bother | 18:30 |
| wilee-nilee | prometheus199_ I'm not familiar with that error, Try in gparted with everything else closed click devise and create partition table, then close gparted and try install again. | 18:30 |

| wilee-nilee | prometheus199_, Hmm I'm not sure here, I wonder if the the ISO you downloaded is corrupt, I see a bug report with that error but different #, that is assocated with Other OS's being on the hd however you are clean. | 18:34 |
| prometheus199_ | might be corrupt... downloaded it straight from ubuntu's website though | 18:34 |
| usr13 | prometheus199_: md5sum it and google results | 18:35 |
| prometheus199_ | the heck is md5sum | 18:35 |
| usr13 | !md5sum | prometheus199_ | 18:35 |
| ubottu | prometheus199_: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 18:35 |
| wilee-nilee | prometheus199_, For me all I can do is knock out variables, if it were me I would do another download of the ISO, you can also run a md5sum on it if you like and try it. | 18:36 |
| usr13 | prometheus199_: Just do md5sum ubuntu-file-name.iso | 18:36 |
| wilee-nilee | !md5 | 18:36 |

| moes | Which jre for 12.04 | 18:38 |
| ikonia | moes: up to you, there are multiple options | 18:38 |
| ikonia | !java |moes | 18:38 |
| ubottu | moes: To just use java you need a "Java Runtime Environment" (JRE) and/or a browser plugin. If that is not sufficient you will need a "Java Development Kit" (JDK) aka "Software Development Kit" (SDK). Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java about how to install one of three current implementations. | 18:38 |

| holstein | darrennnn: http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/ is what i use.. the one that is going to be "best" for you will be the one you can easily use.. if that is a live ubuntu cd, then that is fine.. use the one you have used before if choosing between 12.04 or 13.04 | 19:04 |
| prometheus55 | lets see how that goes lom | 19:04 |
| shah0516 | holstein: I have used the approaches suggested by you except installing new drivers, can you please recommend alternate driver for BCM4313 802.11b/g/n Wireless LAN Controller driver=wl0 driverversion=6.20.155.1 (r326264) | 19:04 |
| eq- | hi, does anyone know the exact steps one needs to achieve an exact equivalent of Ubuntu's default font rendering/hinting when starting from a minimal Ubuntu installation? (short of installing the `ubuntu-desktop' package itself) | 19:04 |
| === _BJFreeman is now known as BJfreeman | ||
| eq- | i.e. is a precise fontconfig enough (I've tried a few), or do I need to install additional packages, or something else? | 19:04 |
| wilee-nilee | roasted, Never worried personally, however this wiki may help. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds | 19:05 |
| roasted | wilee-nilee: I'm having issues getting my broadcom driver installed in 3.9, but I want to use 3.9 as I think I'm facing a 3.8 specific bug. Part of me is wondering if I should give up and wait until 3.9 becomes official in 13.04, but I'm not sure how long out that would be. | 19:05 |
| wilee-nilee | prometheus55, Got my fingers crossed. ;) | 19:06 |
| prometheus55 | im with ya man. spent the better part of 3 days trying to get my computer fixed lol | 19:06 |
| wilee-nilee | roasted, Not sure here, I'm not up on broadcom or any specific bugs. | 19:06 |
| roasted | wilee-nilee: by cahnce do you have a sandy bridge powered laptop? | 19:07 |
| wilee-nilee | prometheus55, HP has some funky built in firmware, just a hypothesis, but one never knows. | 19:07 |
| darrennnn | holstein: hmmm okay thanks. i feel like i''ve tried the ubcd before and several of the utilities didn't run. i am probably just an idiot though. | 19:08 |

| wilee-nilee | LucidDreamZzZ, glxgears is added in compiz right? | 19:10 |
| LucidDreamZzZ | i realize its old 3d benchmark maybe irrelevant.. | 19:10 |
| LucidDreamZzZ | trying to test 3d | 19:10 |
| holstein | darrennnn: nah, its not "beginner" friendly.. using a live CD from ubuntu is a great way to start | 19:11 |
| LucidDreamZzZ | wilee-nilee, yeah i dunno...? | 19:11 |
| Jordan_U | roasted: How did you install 3.9, and are you trying to use b43 or the proprietary broadcom driver? If the former, it should "Just Work™" since what's needed is only the firmware, the driver itself is included in the mainline kernel. | 19:11 |
| wilee-nilee | LucidDreamZzZ, Have not run unity for awhile I like it but use the shell, I remember though that to add the gears t is a plugin in compiz I believe. | 19:12 |
| wilee-nilee | it* | 19:12 |
| wilee-nilee | LucidDreamZzZ, As I remember though the gears were inside the cube, which is not sop easy to make now I beleve. | 19:13 |
| darrennnn | allright well thanks again holstein, i'll probably make a couple CDs and give them both a try. | 19:14 |
| mmercer | whats the proper way of determining if there are updates available (via a monitoring tool)... ie, I just want to know a number, i dont need the list. | 19:14 |

| eq- | by default (after installing, say, a window manager and a single graphical program) the fonts are quite bad | 19:29 |

| prometheus55 | i give up, bout to smash my comp | 19:30 |

| marianne_ | gordonjcp: sorry... but I really do like when it compiles and the errors are all resolved and it does stuff that it's supposed to | 20:00 |
| gordonjcp | marianne_: hah, you should try compiling with -Wall -Werror | 20:01 |
| gordonjcp | marianne_: and getting it building clean | 20:01 |

| display1 | wilee-nilee, oh I check them all except for 3rd party | 20:01 |
| Ari-Yang | question, the fglrx & fglrx-updates drivers under Additional Drivers of Software Sources (in 12.10), is that already installed? or is it installing fglrx from apt? | 20:02 |
| display1 | wilee-nilee, so I will empty my sources file and replace with this newly generated on | 20:02 |
| gQuigs | on fresh reboot, sunrpc debug flags are 0 | 20:02 |
| gQuigs | but I have them specified in sysctl.conf and when I run sysctl -p they get set correctly | 20:02 |
| gQuigs | what am I doing wrong? | 20:02 |

| wilee-nilee | Here is the stock quantal sources list http://repogen.simplylinux.ch/generate.php | 20:04 |
| display1 | wilee-nilee, ok, should I just do apt-get install firefox now, or should I do apt-get purge firefox first to remove the 16 version I have installed, and then when I do install firefox it will install 21? | 20:04 |
| display1 | wilee-nilee, I just did apt-get install firefox, and it says firefox will be updated | 20:05 |
| wilee-nilee | display1, I would run in the terminal sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade copy and paste the whole command | 20:05 |
| wilee-nilee | display1, Cool run the other command as well to be sure you are all updated. | 20:06 |
| display1 | wilee-nilee, I did update and then I installed firefox. but I'll do dist-upgrade next | 20:06 |
| jamtho | hallo | 20:07 |
| zykotick9 | display1: fyi, "apt-get update" does NOT install NEW versions of packages, which firefox would be... but dist-upgrade does... | 20:07 |
| display1 | wilee-nilee, alright...woohooo, I am running firefox 21 now. Thanks man. Much appreciated | 20:07 |
| marianne_ | gordonjcp: going to have to try that.... probably a trip | 20:07 |
| display1 | zykotick9, thx | 20:07 |
| wilee-nilee | display1, No problem. | 20:08 |
| gordonjcp | marianne_: it'll blow your tiny wee mind | 20:08 |
| gordonjcp | marianne_: in six months, the default settings for gcc will change and you'll have all new warnings to play with | 20:08 |
| display1 | frig man dist-upgrade is installing tons of packages | 20:08 |
| gordonjcp | marianne_: it's a blast | 20:08 |
| wilee-nilee | display1, enjoy the flying text in the terminal. | 20:08 |
| display1 | lol, on my other computer I have firefox 3.5 | 20:09 |
| Ari-Yang | well, I've been told that fglrx and fglrx-updates comes from apt, to be honest, I think it's true. Can I get anymore thoughts on this? | 20:09 |
| Fraise | hi | 20:10 |
| saiarcot895 | Ari-Yang: you mean AMD? | 20:11 |
| Ari-Yang | saiarcot895, yes. | 20:11 |
| gQuigs | Ari-Yang: yes there are fglrx and fglrx-updates packages in apt.... | 20:11 |
| Ari-Yang | no, I'm asking is the ones from the Additional Drivers tab from software sources gets it from apt or not | 20:12 |
| Ari-Yang | http://gyazo.com/bbcb6b1dba1a4cb5a63ee30dcfb7b692 <--- here's a screen shot | 20:12 |
| Ari-Yang | this is 12.10 | 20:12 |
| gQuigs | Ari-Yang: yes, that is from apt | 20:13 |
| gQuigs | Ari-Yang: everything in there is from apt | 20:13 |

| reisio | __kluh__: security for a desktop system? | 20:15 |
| reisio | he didn't say 3d, and I'm not sure it matters | 20:16 |
| tigrang | I installed gnome-shell and it's using 80% cpu, I think its because its using software rendering so I want to make sure the video driver is working properly first | 20:16 |
| Ari-Yang | ah | 20:16 |
| reisio | tigrang: one process is? | 20:16 |
| Ari-Yang | if one process is 80% cpu....something is up.... | 20:17 |

| tigrang | reisio: I'm getting ~350-380 with HD7770 | 20:19 |
| reisio | the human eye can perceive well into the thirties :p | 20:19 |
| reisio | so it's probably working just fine | 20:20 |
| tigrang | reisio: on my laptop with a worse GPU gnome-shell is at 0 to 0.3% cpu | 20:20 |
| reisio | tigrang: yeah, sounds like something is amiss | 20:20 |
| tigrang | is there a specific gnome-shell channel? | 20:20 |
| reisio | tigrang: there's a whole GNOME irc server | 20:21 |
| reisio | but you might start at #gnome here | 20:21 |
| tigrang | Or do you know if HD7770 is supported by the FOSS drivers? | 20:21 |
| ezio | is it possible to use putty to create a port 80 tunnel through another ssh server(only one hop) | 20:21 |
| Ari-Yang | tigrang, you could try fglrx.... | 20:21 |
| reisio | tigrang: I have trouble imagining 300+ fps isn't working properly, but it's not really my area | 20:21 |
| reisio | ezio: wrong channel | 20:21 |
| ezio | sure what channel | 20:21 |
| LucidDreamZzZ | i was getting only 200 | 20:22 |
| tigrang | reisio: well visually its not really lagging, i7 920 cpu so there's enough cores not to feel the 50-100% cpu on a core. But its a lot of wasted energy you know | 20:22 |

| Ari-Yang | tigrang, but something is up if it's that high for one process.... | 20:23 |
| === Guest13929 is now known as No_CQRT | ||
| reisio | tigrang: already agreed a few times it sounds amiss :) | 20:23 |
| tigrang | Ari-Yang: it could be because of it falling back to software rendering and thus putting the load on the CPU. Im going to ask in #gnome to check if thats the case | 20:24 |
| Ari-Yang | okay, good luck | 20:24 |

| ThePendulum | Does anyone know of a video tool that lets me strip a certain audio channel of a batch of videos? | 20:27 |
| g0th | strip? | 20:28 |
| reisio | ThePendulum: ffmpeg | 20:28 |
| abnev | ThePendulum: i think ffmpeg or mplayer should od the trick | 20:28 |
| g0th | you mean extract the audio channel or remove the audio channel? | 20:28 |
| reisio | ThePendulum: but, what format videos? :) | 20:28 |
| wilee-nilee | winff might as well | 20:28 |
| reisio | winff is a frontend to ffmpeg | 20:28 |
| Ari-Yang | try mkvmergegui | 20:28 |
| usr13 | ThePendulum: I know how to stip one at a time. | 20:28 |
| Ari-Yang | or mkvtoolnix | 20:28 |
| wilee-nilee | reisio, I know | 20:28 |
| reisio | do you? :p | 20:29 |
| ThePendulum | usr13: If it's a matter of seconds per video, sure | 20:29 |
| ThePendulum | reisio: avi in this case | 20:29 |
| reisio | ThePendulum: probably stick with ffmpeg then | 20:29 |
| ThePendulum | I'm not sure what command to use to strip specifically a certain channel | 20:29 |
| wilee-nilee | ffmpeg has cli it can be run diferently, winnff has it n a gui is all. | 20:29 |
| saiarcot895 | g0th: what about typing in "rm -r" and dragging the folder name from Nautilus into Terminal? | 20:30 |
| reisio | ThePendulum: what you do is copy what you want and not what you don't | 20:30 |
| ActionParsnip | g0th: rm -r foldername ,will delete folders | 20:30 |

| ActionParsnip | thependulum: if you have downloaded the vudeo from youtube and want the audio there are websites for that, saves you a job | 20:32 |
| ThePendulum | I want the video without the Russians blaring over it, rotfl | 20:32 |
| reisio | yeah, saves you ffmpeg -i input -vn -acodec copy output :p | 20:32 |
| ThePendulum | I have episodes of Monty Python's Flying Circus and they have 2 audio tracks, Russian and English :P | 20:32 |
| g0th | ActionParsnip: it doesn't in my case | 20:32 |
| ThePendulum | Let's see | 20:32 |
| reisio | ThePendulum: and you want to gain back the space that audio data takes up? | 20:32 |
| g0th | ActionParsnip: the folder is really strange | 20:32 |
| usr13 | ThePendulum: Oh, you want to get rid of the audio? (Why not just mute?) | 20:32 |
| g0th | the problematic one is from .wine/dosdevice/something | 20:33 |
| g0th | I see the whole filesystem in that folder somehow | 20:33 |
| ThePendulum | usr13: No, I want to get rid of the Russian channel, but keep the English channel | 20:33 |
| ActionParsnip | g0th: can you give a pastebin of the command and output please | 20:33 |
| reisio | ThePendulum: to save space on your hard drive? | 20:33 |
| ThePendulum | reisio: Not necessarily, but the Russian channel is the default and first one, and I don't want to have to switch every time I watch an episode | 20:33 |
| usr13 | ThePendulum: Oh, I don't know about that. Sorry. | 20:33 |
| saiarcot895 | ThePendulum: you could try HandBrake | 20:33 |
| reisio | ThePendulum: use mplayer -fs -sid 2 foo/*.avi or something | 20:33 |
| Ari-Yang | I recommend mpv over mplayer... | 20:34 |
| damianus | reisio: :)) | 20:34 |
| Ari-Yang | (fork of mplayer2) | 20:34 |
| reisio | handbrake another frontend to ffmpeg | 20:34 |

| g0th | pastebin seems to be down *g* | 20:34 |
| Ari-Yang | imo mpv is better than the 2... getting a little off topic here lol | 20:34 |
| reisio | ThePendulum: it's worth it to strip the stream if you want the space back, but not just to watch them with the right audio id | 20:34 |
| reisio | ThePendulum: oh it'd be -aid, not -sid :p | 20:35 |
| reisio | ThePendulum: man mplayer, /-aid | 20:35 |
| reisio | (I usually do it for subtitles, not audio :p) | 20:35 |

| g0th | the error messages go on | 20:36 |
| ThePendulum | reisio: I'll try that in a minute, thanks | 20:36 |
| g0th | there are tons of the same messages for different files | 20:36 |
| ThePendulum | reisio: Will it replace the existing files or create new ones or something? | 20:36 |
| reisio | ThePendulum: as the man page says, you can determine the actual aid # too | 20:36 |
| ActionParsnip | g0th: how do you figure "pastebin is down"? | 20:36 |
| ActionParsnip | g0th: they cant ALL be down | 20:36 |
| g0th | the strange thing is /c/backup is from the root file system | 20:36 |
| reisio | ThePendulum: it'll just play the existing ones... with a different default audio stream | 20:36 |
| reisio | ThePendulum: the mplayer command, that is | 20:36 |
| g0th | ActionParsnip: well the page didn't load for me | 20:36 |
| reisio | ThePendulum: -aid 2 means roughly 'force audio stream 2, ignore others' | 20:37 |
| Ari-Yang | g0th, pastebin is working for me | 20:37 |
| ThePendulum | reisio: Ah | 20:37 |
| reisio | ThePendulum: it might actually be 1 or some other number, however, read the man page, /-aid | 20:37 |

| ThePendulum | reisio: But all it does is playing it, not actually converting it or something? | 20:39 |

| g0th | it is a common linux problem, not distribution specific | 20:39 |
| reisio | ThePendulum: this does save the time and annoyance | 20:39 |
| reisio | ThePendulum: you understand that it would play them all with that audio stream | 20:40 |
| MonkeyDust | g0th then ask in #linux | 20:40 |

| ActionParsnip | jluc: its a seriously data intensive action | 20:51 |

| thebananafish | hey friends, I am trying to block an IP via iptables. I have done this many times before but now when I add the range I need blocked it comes up as network-addr/24 in iptables | 20:54 |

| ThePendulum | reisio: Nevermind, got it working, thanks! | 21:04 |
| reisio | ThePendulum: what made the difference? | 21:05 |
| ThePendulum | reisio: Using ffmpeg instead of avconv :P I thought they were the same | 21:05 |
| ActionParsnip | gordonjcp: i let it organise photos for viewing. thats all really. nothing fancy | 21:05 |
| ThePendulum | reisio: Since using ffmpeg recommends me to use avconv | 21:05 |
| reisio | yeah, 'cause your ffmpeg is really a "legacy" executable provided by libav | 21:06 |
| reisio | which is a silly fork of ffmpeg | 21:06 |
| duelle | Hi, I would like to set up a local gateway to have some kind of subnet (@see: http://pastebin.com/U3eNUn2U ).

| saiarcot895 | display1: Yes; open up Startup Applications and add a new entry | 21:07 |
| reisio | display1: yes | 21:07 |
| ThePendulum | display1: You can make it auto start by adding it to the Startup Applications, which in i.e. Ubuntu 12.04 can be found under the little gear in the top right | 21:07 |
| display1 | saiarcot895, reisio ThePendulum thx | 21:08 |
| display1 | But what about full screen? | 21:08 |
| reisio | display1: do you need to keep people from exiting full screen? | 21:08 |
| ThePendulum | display1: What is your specific purpose? | 21:09 |
| display1 | reisio, not necessarily, just need it to be full screen on its own, and stay that way as long as no user input | 21:09 |
| display1 | ThePendulum, kiosk mode | 21:09 |
| reisio | well, kiosk is a term used more for fullscreen that users aren't allowed to escape from | 21:09 |
| reisio | not that the two can't overlap | 21:09 |
| saiarcot895 | display1: What about chromeless mode? | 21:09 |
| saiarcot895 | display1: It's not true fullscreen, though | 21:09 |
| johnjohn101 | can mortals make ubuntu into kiosk mode? | 21:09 |
| ThePendulum | display1: I'd recommend installing compizconfig-settings-manager and look under Window Management if you can find anything. Please be careful, don't just fiddle around if you don't know what it is. | 21:10 |
| reisio | kiosk mode is equivalent to an OS that has had its legs cut out from under it | 21:10 |
| reisio | display1: you're saying --kiosk isn't enough? | 21:10 |

| reisio | Whiskey`Wonka: it's not vmware specific, AIUI | 21:36 |
| fgfgw | so what should i do? i need to use nmcli and i cant change the password | 21:36 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | reisio: aah, the description made it sound that way | 21:36 |
| Spr1ng | How do I install a package from source using apt-get? | 21:36 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | hmm, ok why in the buggers is the updates going 'can not verify source' ?? | 21:37 |
| wilee-nilee | Spr1ng, sudp apt-get install "package" | 21:37 |
| reisio | Whiskey`Wonka: vmware uses it is all, AIUI | 21:37 |
| Spr1ng | But from source, so it compiles | 21:37 |
| reisio | fgfgw: hrmm? | 21:37 |
| Joris | from source? Just "cd" into the folder, use "make" to build it, then "make install" to install it. | 21:37 |
| wilee-nilee | Spr1ng, Sorry sudo | 21:37 |
| Spr1ng | Joris: thx | 21:38 |
| Joris | Cannot verify source? I had that same error. Just updated aptitude by "sudo apt-get update", and that solved it for me. | 21:38 |
| wilee-nilee | Spr1ng, Ah, I thought you meant the sources list, are you sure you need to is the pckg in the repos maybe? | 21:38 |
| fgfgw | got it! | 21:38 |
| fgfgw | thanks! | 21:38 |
| reisio | fgfgw: yeah? | 21:38 |
| Joris | So, does anyone know the solution to my problem? | 21:39 |
| reisio | Joris: in your grub config | 21:39 |
| reisio | Joris: hold shift while you boot up, you can edit it | 21:39 |
| reisio | Joris: it's telling you to add it to the line with 'kernel' in it | 21:39 |

| kingofabsinthe | Привет | 21:39 |
| reisio | Joris: preceded by a space, of course | 21:39 |
| Joris | And where would I find the config file for grub? | 21:39 |

| Spr1ng | wilee-nilee: I'm trying to install request tracker 4, but there's no apt-get package for the latest version. (there is for version 4.0.4 which is rather outdated). So next best option is to install from source and from what people have been telling me, it's a bad idea to upgrade a program from source if it was installed using apt-get | 21:40 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | Joris: ah yup, another thing CLI does better then the GUI does | 21:40 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | there were updates for the sources but the GUI wasnt seeing them | 21:40 |
| wilee-nilee | Spr1ng, I understand, have you check PPA's, and I did not instruct you to update from a source. | 21:41 |
| Spr1ng | I don't know what a PPA is / how to use it. | 21:41 |
| wilee-nilee | !ppa | 21:41 |

| Joris | The word "kernel" appears in that file only twice, both times in a sentence (in comments) | 21:42 |
| reisio | Joris: in what file? | 21:42 |
| reisio | Joris: oh right | 21:43 |
| reisio | Joris: the line that starts with 'linux' | 21:43 |
| reisio | used to be 'kernel' before GRUB2 | 21:43 |
| reisio | additionaly, /boot/vmlinuz... is your actual kernel file (or a symlink to it) | 21:43 |
| Joris | Thanks, found it. | 21:43 |
| reisio | additionalllllly | 21:44 |
| Joris | Now going to test it. I'll let you guys know how it went :) | 21:44 |
| reisio | g'luck | 21:44 |
| Spr1ng | wilee-nilee: No such package found for request tracker 4 in PPA's. :( | 21:44 |
| mong | ... and he was never heard from again | 21:44 |
| wilee-nilee | Spr1ng, Yeah I saw that. | 21:44 |
| wilee-nilee | Spr1ng, I saw a deb, but am not familiar with what it is, or what's in the repo or you want is all. | 21:45 |
| reisio | wilee-nilee: .deb's are sort of like .exe or .msi installers on Windows, only more sensible | 21:46 |
| zoktar | is there an easy way to list installed packages that do not exist in sources.list or enabled ppa repos ?. | 21:46 |
| reisio | zoktar: that you didn't install via dpkg/apt/software center ? | 21:46 |
| wilee-nilee | reisio, Really, lol. ;) | 21:46 |
| zoktar | well sort of yeah | 21:46 |
| Spr1ng | wilee-nilee: Can you send me a link that you found? | 21:46 |
| reisio | zoktar: like with make install? | 21:46 |
| saiarcot895 | zoktar: In Synaptic, there is the Local filter | 21:47 |
| zoktar | no no debs | 21:47 |
| reisio | zoktar: debs should show up in dpkg -l, no? | 21:47 |
| zoktar | its a downgrade thing | 21:47 |
| reisio | wilee-nilee: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deb_%28file_format%29 | 21:47 |
| reisio | zoktar: hrmm? | 21:47 |
| zoktar | removed ppa's | 21:47 |
| zoktar | without purging | 21:47 |
| wilee-nilee | reisio, Dud I have been using for 7 yeras I'm not a noob. | 21:48 |
| zoktar | so wrong package versions installed. thats why i want to see what packages are installed that are not in standard repos | 21:48 |
| zoktar | +active ppas | 21:48 |
| reisio | wilee-nilee: oh you were saying you weren't familiar with that _particular_ deb | 21:48 |
| reisio | good ole English | 21:48 |
| wilee-nilee | reisio, Not the tracker 4 app. ;) | 21:49 |
| reisio | ? | 21:49 |
| madprops | wilee-nilee, you can install debs with dpkg | 21:49 |
| reisio | wilee-nilee: heh | 21:49 |
| Amin | why is it that i have 3 online account icons | 21:49 |
| wilee-nilee | Spr1ng, Here is the link not sure what is there. http://www.ubuntuupdates.org/package/core/raring/universe/base/request-tracker4 | 21:49 |
| Amin | im using gnome 3.8 | 21:50 |
| saiarcot895 | zoktar: aptitude and Synaptic list locally-installed packages | 21:50 |
| aitor | hello, there is the help channel for ubuntu? | 21:50 |
| aitor | *this is sorry | 21:50 |
| * wilee-nilee wonders why all of a sudden I'm being schooled... geez | 21:50 | |
| madprops | aitor yes it's called #gentoo | 21:50 |
| reisio | aitor: there is, and this is it | 21:50 |
| zoktar | saiarcot895, thanks ill investigate | 21:50 |
| === basketpc is now known as jjprieto | ||
| saiarcot895 | zoktar: but it doesn't list packages that *are* in Ubuntu, but a different version | 21:50 |
| Spr1ng | Thanks wilee-nilee, looks like that's outdated too. It's a real pity the developers of RT couldn't be bothered making an deb package for it. | 21:50 |
| saiarcot895 | As far as I know | 21:50 |
| wilee-nilee | Spr1ng, Figured as such. | 21:51 |
| aitor | ok, thank you, i have a problem installing ubuntu on my portatil, i have mint in my destopk pc and it worked well but i can't load my portatil from cd neither can i load the bios :S | 21:51 |
| Amin | how can i remove unity and stay only on gnome ? | 21:51 |
| wilee-nilee | Amin, unity is a plugin in compiz running on gnome 3 | 21:51 |
| reisio | !notunity | 21:51 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 11.10 and higher use the !Unity desktop environment by default. To use GNOME Shell instead, install the "gnome-shell" package and investigate "gnome-tweak-tool". For GNOME Fallback mode, which is similar to GNOME 2, install "gnome-panel". Both packages will place entries in the Sessions dropdown. | 21:51 |
| reisio | Amin: ^ | 21:51 |
| daftykins | aitor: what's your native language? there might be a specific channel for you | 21:52 |
| madprops | aitor, #ubuntu-es | 21:52 |
| Amin | well Wilee-nilee | 21:52 |
| wilee-nilee | Amin, What gnome do you want gnome2 gnome3 the fallback or the gnome-shell | 21:52 |
| Amin | i seem to have something messed up in my system cuz i have 3 different onilne accounts in my dash ! | 21:52 |
| aitor | -.- why did you know i was Spanish? that bad is my English? lol you will make me feel depressed ahah, but ok, i will enter there | 21:52 |
| Amin | im using gnome 3.8 which is the one i want | 21:52 |
| andrewSC | hi all, is there someone fluent here in VPSes and ubuntu 12.10 and tun ? | 21:53 |
| reisio | aitor: /whois aitor gives away your IP | 21:53 |
| daftykins | !es | aitor | 21:53 |
| ubottu | aitor: En la mayoría de los canales de Ubuntu, se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español entre al canal #ubuntu-es; escriba "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y presione intro. | 21:53 |
| reisio | aitor: additionally, your nick is a spanish name | 21:53 |
| Amin | but why dont i get notifications with the friends-app ? and why do i have 3 online accounts? and how can i integrate the chat client? | 21:53 |
| wilee-nilee | Amin, YOu want the gnome-shell or the fallback, I would not worry about unity it s tiny don't use it. | 21:53 |
| aitor | ok, i'm there in the ubuntu spanish channel but there is few people | 21:53 |
| Spr1ng | Can somebody make a recommendation for what they use for their ticketing / helpdesk system. I've been looking at RT (Request Tracker) and experienced one problem after another so I'm looking at alternatives. Would appreciate any info on this. | 21:53 |
| aitor | did you understand when i told you my problem? | 21:53 |
| Amin | i want the shell | 21:53 |
| reisio | aitor: you don't have to leave here, it was just someone's idea that you might do better in -es | 21:54 |
| aitor | it's installing ubuntu with the live cd | 21:54 |
| wilee-nilee | Amin, And you have that installed right? | 21:54 |
| madprops | aitor, how are you trying to load the cd? | 21:54 |
| Amin | well i had ubuntu 12.04 | 21:55 |
| Amin | and i upgraded twice to reach now raring | 21:55 |
| Amin | and i installed gnome | 21:55 |
| aitor | i follow what it says, i mean, restarting from entering the live cd mode | 21:55 |
| Amin | the system broke a while ago i managed to fix it | 21:55 |
| wilee-nilee | Amin, sudo apt-get install gnome-shell | 21:55 |
| aitor | but the windows 8 it cames from factory always load and i can't never enter the bios nor the ubuntu cd plays | 21:55 |
| Amin | already installed wilee | 21:55 |
| Amin | wait let me show u where my problem lies | 21:56 |
| Amin | give me a sec | 21:56 |
| wilee-nilee | upgrades can be problematic, I always fresh install, much faster. | 21:56 |
| xjkx | If I put a 64 bits processor now, will my already installed ubuntu, load ? | 21:56 |
| saiarcot895 | aitor: I think you have to do a force-shutdown on WIndows 8 | 21:56 |
| madprops | aitor usually there is a key to show the boot menu while the computer is restarting, try something like F2 or F8 or F10 or Tab or Escape one of those should be | 21:56 |
| wilee-nilee | madprops, shift | 21:56 |
| reisio | xjkx: what does 'uname -a' say? | 21:56 |
| saiarcot895 | madprops: Windows 8 has this semi-shutdown state or something | 21:57 |
| xjkx | reisio: I'm not on ubuntu right now...but it is 32 bits, I never used 64 bits of anything | 21:57 |
| aitor | yes i have tried all of them but it does not work :S and it's not any key saying what it is the bios option, those portatils made with windows 8 i think are made against people using other OS :( their OS is that bad they have to use unfair tricks to keep people using it | 21:57 |
| Amin | ok any idea how i can backup all my data and reinstall cuz i have a bunch of data i dont wanna lose | 21:57 |
| superboot | Hi all. I'm running 12.04 and am looking to install Dancer IRCD per this tutorial https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Dancer-IRCD | 21:57 |
| reisio | xjkx: the installation would work, yes | 21:58 |
| reisio | xjkx: unless you changed the hardware significantly enough to require your kernel to be modified to support it | 21:58 |
| saiarcot895 | aitor: In Windows 8: try opening the command prompt and typing in "shutdown.exe -s -t 1" | 21:58 |
| superboot | The dancer-services package doesn't seem to be available anymore. Any hints? | 21:58 |
| xjkx | reisio: my arch linux says "Linux secret 3.9.7-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Thu Jun 20 23:22:07 CEST 2013", you think it will load ? I'll need at least one system working lol | 21:58 |
| reisio | xjkx: but you'd be missing out on 64-bit software | 21:58 |
| saiarcot895 | aitor: That should shut down Windows | 21:58 |
| saiarcot895 | aitor: Then, you should be able to get to the BIOS and choose to start up from the CD Drive | 21:58 |
| xjkx | reisio: I'll install 64 bits later, I'll need a working system for the more emergencial needs | 21:58 |
| reisio | xjkx: it might, but x86 vs x86_64 won't really be a factor | 21:58 |
| xjkx | reisio: wont do you mean be a factor ? | 21:59 |
| aitor | ok, i'm trying saiarcot, i'll tell you if it doesn't go well what fails, thanks | 21:59 |

| daftykins | aitor: why can't you get into the BIOS? F2/delete not work? | 22:02 |
| aitor | no, no key works -.- | 22:03 |

| aitor | but what live cd? i cannot boot from a cd, the windows boots directly, i have the live ubuntu cd on and it works in the destopk pc but not in the portatil, it doesn't boot from cd if i don't change it in the bios | 22:04 |
| daftykins | aitor: what brand + model is it? | 22:04 |
| wilee-nilee | !uefi | aitor | 22:04 |

| wilee-nilee | aitor, if you have a secureboot (uefi) check the bots info and this tips thread. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2147295 | 22:06 |
| aitor | ok my laptop is a Asus X55C-SX008H, sounds somewhat complicated that of the UEFI, really there's no way to open the bios? | 22:08 |
| madprops | did you try F2 while rebooting the way saiarcot895 told you | 22:08 |
| saiarcot895 | madprops: actually, daftykins said that | 22:09 |
| wilee-nilee | aitor, Have you tried the delet key on powering on? | 22:10 |
| wilee-nilee | delete | 22:10 |
| aitor | yes, and it does nothing, just the same, the windows always load itself, and i'm pretty sure the cd is well since in my pc works really fine | 22:10 |
| madprops | saiarcot895, I meant the shutdown thing from windows | 22:10 |
| daftykins | aitor: the usual keys really should work to allow entering the BIOS. maybe you're not pressing it enough times early on enough, or maybe you need to power off - then power on and try it | 22:10 |
| aitor | yes i have tried all the fX keys and power off and on many many times, and then delete options, idk, i will keep trying or look into the internet if someone has the same problem | 22:11 |
| wilee-nilee | aitor, Call the manufacturer or search the web, computers can have funky keys needed to real the bios and other functions setup by the bios makers and the manufacturers | 22:11 |
| saiarcot895 | aitor: You might want to see the link the bot posted above (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI) | 22:11 |
| madprops | aitor, are you restarting your computer with "shutdown.exe -s -t 1" | 22:11 |
| zoktar | saiarcot895, force version in synaptic worked, sadly only one package at a time. | 22:12 |
| aitor | shutdown.exe -s -t 1 does not restart it, just shutdown, then if i start again the same, i press f2 or Supr or any other but it don't work, i will call asus | 22:14 |
| MonkeyDust | from the shutdown, what's the difference between halted, powered off and brought down , | 22:16 |
| bekks | aitor: shutdown.exe -s is supposed to shutdown. -r is supposed to restart. Everything works as expected. | 22:16 |
| MonkeyDust | from the shutdown manpage , what's the difference between halted, powered off and brought down ? | 22:16 |
| aitor | ok, then it should be shutdown.exe -s -r 1? | 22:17 |
| reisio | shutdown.exe? :) | 22:17 |
| bekks | aitor: No. Either -s (shutdown) or -r (reboot). | 22:17 |
| reisio | or just 'reboot' | 22:17 |
| aitor | i will try tomorrow, late here now and i can't still access the bios, thank you guys, i hope i will be an ubuntu user soon :) | 22:17 |

| Vec_ | Hey guys, i am installing ubuntu server. I am running a BIOS-raid mirror (fakeraid). I am at the point where i choose where to install the GRUB boot loader. Where do i install it? Under /dev/mapper/{array name}? | 22:22 |
| Vec_ | or just /dev/sda ? | 22:22 |
| madprops | Vec_, #ubuntu-server | 22:23 |
| g_byers | does it now macwolf74 ^_^ | 22:23 |
| Ari-Yang | is editing /sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_profile safe? | 22:23 |
| Ari-Yang | atm the file power_profile is default | 22:23 |
| macwolf74 | ? | 22:23 |
| Ari-Yang | according to this page: "default" uses the default clocks and does not change the power state. This is the default behavior. | 22:23 |
| Ari-Yang | http://wiki.x.org/wiki/RadeonFeature#KMS_Power_Management_Options | 22:24 |
| Ari-Yang | atm my laptop temp is 77 degrees c and it isn't doing anything at all | 22:24 |
| Spec-Chum | Vec_: I would guess, as the raid is BIOS, that it'll just see the disks as /dev/sda | 22:24 |
| Ari-Yang | will editing /sys/calss/drm/card0/device/power_profile really make a difference? | 22:24 |
| Ari-Yang | has anyone tried this? | 22:24 |
| Vec_ | Spec-Chum: Ok. I came across this http://askubuntu.com/questions/43036/how-do-i-install-grub-on-a-raid-system-installation stating in a reply that i need to do the /dev/mapper/[arayname] | 22:26 |
| Vec_ | thing is i have like 4 of em, im guessing the top (alphabetical) is the one to choose | 22:26 |
| Vec_ | unless its straight up /dev/sda | 22:26 |
| Vec_ | i dno, i have to reinstall again if i fuck up here so >< | 22:27 |
| reisio | Vec_: what's the raid for? | 22:27 |
| Vec_ | mirroring 2 disks | 22:27 |
| reisio | Vec_: what for | 22:27 |
| Vec_ | for redundancy, backup | 22:27 |
| reisio | that's not what raid is for | 22:27 |
| IdleOne | Vec_: no swearing in here please | 22:27 |
| Vec_ | IdleOne: 10-4 | 22:27 |
| crond | depends on the kind of raid | 22:28 |
| reisio | no it doesn't | 22:28 |
| crond | reisio, I insist that you're wrong. | 22:28 |
| Vec_ | reisio: At this point im just interested in trying to actually get my server up. I started learning ubuntu today so i want it working so i can actually do stuff | 22:28 |
| reisio | crond: insist all you like | 22:28 |
| reisio | Vec_: fair enough | 22:28 |
| Vec_ | Ok well, who bets its just /dev/sda, and who bets it's not? (fakeraid/biosraid) | 22:29 |
| bekks | RAID isnt for backup, never. | 22:29 |
| crond | reisio, how does raid-0 give redundancy? | 22:29 |
| reisio | crond: you tell me | 22:29 |
| crond | reisio, my point is it doesnt. | 22:29 |
| reisio | crond: nope, that's my point | 22:29 |
| crond | thats my point too | 22:29 |
| reisio | glad we're all on the same page, though | 22:30 |
| crond | lol | 22:30 |
| reisio | not unless you misread something :) | 22:30 |
| gordonjcp | uh | 22:30 |
| crond | yes. I must have :D | 22:30 |
| reisio | that's three of us who understand what raid is for, and then there's Vec_ :) | 22:30 |
| gordonjcp | RAID0 most certainly *does* give redundancy | 22:30 |
| gordonjcp | oh no, wait | 22:30 |
| crond | gordonjcp, no, the data is striped without parity. | 22:30 |
| reisio | redundancy, but not the kind anyone looking for redundancy is after | 22:30 |
| gordonjcp | I'm thinking of RAID1, sorry | 22:30 |
| gordonjcp | disregard I soak cakes | 22:30 |
| * genii slides gordonjcp a coffee | 22:30 | |
| reisio | doesn't matter, raid as it's used today is not about redundacy, but availability | 22:31 |
| crond | yeah, about all raid0 can do is maybe give a speed boost in disk access times | 22:31 |
| gordonjcp | genii: thanks, but it's bedtime | 22:31 |
| reisio | 0 or otherwise | 22:31 |
| gordonjcp | crond: which is quite often fine | 22:31 |
| reisio | Vec_: so what was the problem, again? | 22:31 |
| crond | gordonjcp, yeah, cept for the increased possibility of data loss with 2 potential failure points. | 22:31 |
| gordonjcp | crond: you may want to stripe and have *no* redundancy because you might want to go as fast as you possibly can | 22:31 |
| gordonjcp | crond: <shrug< | 22:31 |
| gordonjcp | crond: what if you don't care about that, you only care about going as fast as possible? | 22:31 |

| Vec_ | reisio: The problem is that i have to install my GRUB boot loader somewhere where it will work | 22:32 |
| crond | gordonjcp, then raid-0 some SSDs! ;) | 22:32 |
| reisio | that is a problem | 22:32 |
| gordonjcp | crond: yup | 22:32 |
| gordonjcp | crond: reeeeealllly fast | 22:32 |
| wilee-nilee | a SSD is a good option for speed | 22:32 |
| gordonjcp | it is *now* | 22:32 |
| Vec_ | I have a bios raid, so im not sure where the bootloader goes | 22:32 |
| reisio | heh, 'cause SSDs don't fail fast enough normally :p | 22:32 |
| abyss42 | Suppose if I have 1 master and 1000 minions, do i have to manually install salt on all those 1000 minions? | 22:32 |
| gordonjcp | a few years ago, not so much | 22:32 |
| gordonjcp | abyss42: are you talking about installing stuff on many many machines? | 22:32 |
| gordonjcp | abyss42: look into puppet | 22:32 |
| beboj | does it make sens to create swap partition using 8 gb ram ? | 22:33 |
| reisio | beboj: not really no | 22:33 |
| abyss42 | gordonjcp, no I am new to salt, and I was just thinking, if i have 1 master and 1000 minions, do the minions need to have salt installed as well? | 22:33 |
| reisio | beboj: unless you plan to hibernate 8GBs of data to it | 22:33 |
| wilee-nilee | beboj, Only if you need it or will hibernate | 22:33 |
| reisio | only if you need it, heh :p | 22:33 |

| wilee-nilee | I have seen users with apps that will hit the swappiness most don't | 22:34 |
| saiarcot895 | Vec_: with zero experience and very limited knowledge, I'm betting /dev/mapper/{top one} | 22:34 |
| crond | beboj, if you're going to hibernate, make a swap of the same size as your ram | 22:34 |
| saiarcot895 | Vec_: regardless, I would suggest having a Live CD in case something goes wrong; you can then use Boot Repair or something else | 22:35 |
| beboj | crond:thx | 22:35 |
| Vec_ | saiarcot895: thanks a bunch, yeah i have my livecd here ^^ | 22:35 |
| Vec_ | the guys in ubuntu-server said the same thing btw | 22:36 |
| Vec_ | And then on to the next Q: I entered busybox with (cntrl-alt-f2) during install. Now i cant get back to the install. Help? ^^ | 22:36 |
| wilee-nilee | Guest47079, Don't spam the channel. | 22:37 |
| bekks | Vec_: ctrl+alt+f1 | 22:37 |
| Vec_ | bekks: ty | 22:37 |
| Vec_ | so, grub bootloader will now be installed @ /dev/mapper/<arrayname> ? or with /dev/mapper/<arrayname>/ | 22:38 |
| * Vec_ please bear with me, started today >< | 22:39 | |
| bekks | Vec_: Is it a RAID1 array? | 22:39 |
| Vec_ | yeah, mirroring | 22:39 |
| bekks | Vec_: You have to install it to both underlying disks, since the mbr isnt mirror most likely. | 22:40 |
| Vec_ | :[ | 22:41 |
| Vec_ | Well, at any rate im trying this now before im off to bed | 22:41 |
| display1 | you know the arora web browser, how to maximize it on launch | 22:42 |
| Vec_ | bekks: It worked! :D | 22:42 |

| MrKeuner | is it possible to forward music output from my Android phone to ubuntu desktop? Just like how my car audio system behaves? | 22:44 |
| MrKeuner | dekstop has bluetooth but it seems like all i can do with it is to transfer files | 22:45 |
| Spec-Chum | Vec_: glad you got it working buddy, sorry my guess was wrong :/ | 22:45 |
| Vec_ | Spec-Chum: ^_^ no worries, a guess is better than what i had. | 22:46 |
| Vec_ | Well this is going to be fun, learning this OS that is. Hopefully ill get it to share files and a printer relativly soon. Seems to be tons of tons of good docs on the intertubes. | 22:47 |
| Vec_ | Good night everyone, thanks for outstanding help throughout the day <3 | 22:47 |
| wilee-nilee | MrKeuner, I saw a googleplay app offered here a couple of days ago, I forget the name though, there is airdroid, but this other app seemed better. | 22:47 |
| banjo | oh | 22:48 |
| MrKeuner | wilee-nilee, so it is a matter of app on the ubuntu side? | 22:48 |
| JRicketts_ | Looking for a good guide on how to setup static ip with a router and modem being bridged. I can access test pag le but only in network. | 22:49 |
| wilee-nilee | MrKeuner, airdroid is at google play you just link with wireless, so was the other. | 22:49 |
| wilee-nilee | MrKeuner, YOU might try #android for help as well. | 22:50 |
| xangua | MrKeuner: i got that option with blueman, havent realized default bluetooth manager doesn't have it | 22:50 |
| display1 | is it possible to put inside startup application, just to enter f11? | 22:51 |
| bprompt | MrKeuner: there are some apps for Android that'd make the device a "server" with some url for any device to connect to it wirelessly | 22:51 |
| xangua | MrKeuner: to set the pc as audio outpout for the phone...can't test it right now also because cyanogenmod seems to have issues with bluetooth | 22:51 |
| saiarcot895 | display1: I don't think so | 22:51 |
| usr13 | display1: What application? | 22:52 |
| saiarcot895 | display1: it accepts anything you can do from Terminal | 22:52 |
| MrKeuner | bprompt, wilee-nilee my car works with the default music player. Must be something on the ubuntu desktop side | 22:52 |
| MrKeuner | xangua, will try blueman | 22:52 |
| display1 | usr13, Arora web browser | 22:52 |
| display1 | saiarcot895, I see what you mean | 22:52 |
| usr13 | display1: If it is like firefox, it will open in the state it was last closed, (by default). | 22:52 |
| display1 | usr13, thx | 22:53 |
| display1 | usr13, let see | 22:53 |
| wilee-nilee | MrKeuner, Your car running linux. | 22:53 |
| display1 | usr13, you are correct | 22:53 |
| wilee-nilee | ;) | 22:54 |
| MrKeuner | wilee-nilee, I am sure it is a form of Linux ;) | 22:54 |
| MrKeuner | just the default bluetooth audio system | 22:54 |
| wilee-nilee | MrKeuner, Probably, all I have seen which is not much as far as forwarding is having access to the android device and using a player in ubuntu. I never forward music though. | 22:55 |
| wilee-nilee | MrKeuner, If you plug it in does it mount, and or you want this as unattached? | 22:56 |
| MrKeuner | xangua, red experimental disclaimer on blueman for audio support is intimidating a bit but I'll try | 22:58 |
| === jimerickson is now known as jje | ||
| Dante93 | Hi | 23:00 |
| MrKeuner | nope, blueman couldn't do it either. My laptop asked if I should authorize the phone for audio and I did authorize but connection did not go through | 23:00 |

| Tapper | hey guys! does anyone know how to format FAT with gnome-disk-utility | 23:02 |
| hansnn | Hi! According to 'lsusb', my 12.04 thinks that my galaxy s4 is a galaxy s2. This is probably the reason why I get errors when I try to enter the phones file system via ubuntu. I can't find any help on google, so I appreciate your help! | 23:03 |
| Tapper | NVM found it | 23:03 |
| mong | hansnn: are you sure that usb mass storage is enabled on the galaxy s4? | 23:04 |
| hansnn | mong: No I am not. I have never heard of such a thing | 23:04 |
| hansnn | Usually with my phones it's just 'plug and play right away' | 23:05 |
| mong | hansnn: first make sure it is enabled as shown here: http://www.android.gs/enable-the-usb-mass-storage-for-samsung-galaxy-s4/ | 23:05 |
| hansnn | thanks for the ling mong | 23:05 |

| JaceP | i'm trying to have a program start at startup, and it needs to start in a terminal | 23:06 |
| JaceP | my startup command goes something like: gnome-terminal -e "/home/blah blah/myprogram.sh" | 23:06 |
| JaceP | it's choking on the fact there's a space in the path, even though i've quoted it properly. ideas? | 23:06 |
| bekks | JaceP: how did you quote it? | 23:06 |
| Jordan_U | hansnn: There are two ways to access data stored on the phone's SD card, USB Mass Storage (where the phone umounts the SD card itself, and acts like an external drive) and MTP (where the phone keeps the SD card mounted and transfers files through a file transfer protocol). | 23:07 |
| JaceP | just as typed there | 23:07 |
| bekks | JaceP: Thats improperly quoted. | 23:07 |
| JaceP | is it? | 23:07 |
| ivanelson | How do I configure MTA by postfix? | 23:07 |
| bekks | JaceP: This would be properly: gnome-terminal -e "/home/blah\ blah/myprogram.sh" | 23:07 |
| Jordan_U | hansnn: When using USB Mass Storage mode your phone will act exactly like an external drive, so no phone specific functionality is required by the OS or programs. | 23:07 |
| bekks | JaceP: You need a "\" before the whitespace. | 23:07 |
| ivanelson | The postfix is already installed and running. I can not send messages at the prompt. | 23:08 |
| hansnn | Jordan_U: I see | 23:08 |
| JaceP | i don't see why the quotes are necessary if that's the case | 23:09 |
| hansnn | Jordan_U: That seems neat. However I am thinking about developing android apps, so this might not be what I want in the long run | 23:09 |
| benbloom | is there a command line way of seeing how long a program has been running (real time not CPU time) | 23:09 |
| hansnn | mong do I have to root the device for UMS to work? I'm guessing I won't be able to test my own android apps on the device via UMS? | 23:12 |
| JaceP | bekks: i have done what you said, still no success | 23:12 |
| JaceP | i no longer get an error. now i just don't get anything at all | 23:12 |
| JaceP | bekks: solved, thanks | 23:17 |
| hansnn | Jordan_U: Problem solved by using usb2.0 in stead of 3.0 . lsusb still sais galaxy sII, but it works:) | 23:18 |

| Spec-Chum | maddy_pmg: I think you might need legacy driver for that | 23:36 |
| Ari-Yang | oh? | 23:36 |
| Ari-Yang | I'm curious too, because I have hd 5400 | 23:36 |
| Ari-Yang | maddy_pmg, maybe you should try installing fglrx from Additional Driver tab from software sources? | 23:37 |
| Ari-Yang | seeing how ubuntu approved of it | 23:37 |
| maddy_pmg | spec : where can i find ? | 23:37 |
| Ari-Yang | I wouldn't trust installing from the official site | 23:37 |
| Ari-Yang | fglrx does support hd 54xxx cards | 23:37 |
| maddy_pmg | ari : okay i'll try that one | 23:38 |
| Ari-Yang | maddy_pmg, make sure you uninstall the one from amd site first | 23:38 |

| Ari-Yang | maddy_pmg, uninstall the current one (assuming you haven't), then install it form Additional Drivers tab | 23:39 |
| Ari-Yang | reboot | 23:39 |
| Ari-Yang | maddy_pmg, let me know how it works out | 23:39 |

| Ari-Yang | maddy_pmg, okay, you know where Additional Drivers is right? it's a tab in software sources | 23:40 |
| maddy_pmg | ari : yeah i know that | 23:41 |
| Ari-Yang | kk | 23:41 |
| bellasbells | grkblood: somewhere in /usr/share/firefox/plugins I think | 23:41 |
| Ari-Yang | maddy_pmg, you going to try fglrx or fglrx-updates ? | 23:41 |
| LucidDreamZzZ | what to manage compiz | 23:41 |
| Ari-Yang | LucidDreamZzZ, ccsm | 23:41 |
| maddy_pmg | Ari : fglrx-updates | 23:42 |
| grkblood | bellasbells, so its not the one in /usr/lib/flashplugin-installer? | 23:42 |
| Ari-Yang | maddy_pmg, alrighty, when you quit IRC I'll assume you're rebooting | 23:42 |
| bellasbells | grkblood: theirs a symlink | 23:42 |
| maddy_pmg | Ari : yap | 23:42 |
| bellasbells | so you follow it from the plugins directory | 23:42 |
| bellasbells | in fact, most of the plugins in the directory are symlinks | 23:43 |
| LucidDreamZzZ | Ari-Yang, ok wahts that | 23:44 |
| Ari-Yang | !ccsm | 23:44 |

| * JRicketts_ is now away - Reason : Auto-Away (Away from Keyboard for 30 minutes) | 23:51 | |

| killmaker | why can't i play a game like wow in wine beacuse wine dosn't load wow's luacher | 23:53 |
| jrib | steven: setup your own repository then? Does puppet only let you install things with apt? | 23:53 |
| Ari-Yang | killmaker, WINE is unreliable.... | 23:53 |
| Ari-Yang | and maybe you need to use proprietary driver? | 23:53 |
| steven | jrib: eh see I don't know how I'd do that : ) its only one single deb files since 1204 LTS has broken dependencies for a package, and no I can also manually execute cmd using puppet, I'd prefer apt though | 23:56 |
