[00:22] fdisk partition doesn't work' [00:22] sudo fdisk -l [00:22] When I type that into terminal [00:22] just found another glitch [00:22] fdisk -l [00:23] dreadiscool: fyi, you aren't getting good advice from wheatthin - but do what you want. fdisk - "should" work. [00:23] I get a blank response from sudo fdisk -l [00:23] It just prints the bash thing again [00:23] did you use sudo? [00:23] dreadiscool: if your drive is larger then 2+TB then fdisk CAN'T work. [00:23] zykotick9: nothing wrong with fdisk if you have problems with it..it is usually a lyaer 8 problem [00:23] waitng for the next command [00:23] Yes, I did [00:23] it is a USB drive with u3...not going to have 2TB [00:24] zykotick9, why do you say I'm not getting good advice? fdisk has been around for years [00:24] wheatthin: fdisk is a BAD program. use gdisk, or parted or gparted. [00:24] zykotick9, tell me where it says it's a bad program [00:24] learn how to use it [00:25] wheatthin: wee "man fdisk" at the bottom (i'm assuming ubuntu's man page is the same as debian's here) [00:25] zykotick9, this isn't debian.. it's ubuntu [00:25] wheatthin: i agree... [00:25] My computer crasehd for the 4th time -.- [00:25] ubuntu is built on debian...so close enough [00:26] Can someone please just give me some commands to run so I can get my computer in a workable situation. I love to learn, and I really want to learn, but my computer is so unstable right now that I can't [00:26] dreadiscool_: http://www.webupd8.org/2009/10/linux-format-your-usb-drive-via-command.html [00:26] dreadiscool do you have another computer to burn a dvd? or that can format your disk? [00:26] PashaPasta half the commands on there don't work [00:27] I don't have any other thing [00:27] I only have this one flash drive [00:27] sudo fdisk -l returns a blank output [00:27] Like literally nothing [00:27] Trying to wipe the drive from the startup disk creator resulted in the drive filling up with no space left [00:27] Nothing works [00:27] dreadiscool_: type in "df" [00:27] And my computer is crashing every 5 minutes [00:27] get any output? [00:27] Yes [00:27] dreadiscool, you need to boot from a live environment in order to use it [00:28] What does that even mean? :3 [00:28] dreadiscool by using a livedvd or a thumb drive already installed, cause no commands will work while your disk is overfull === james_ is now known as Guest60402 [00:29] wheatthin, I had the bootable usb stick, but I created a partition on my regular hdd and installed it [00:29] hello room any ladys in here [00:29] So atm it's running off my hdd [00:29] I want to wipe my usb, put ubuntu 12 on it as a bootable stick, remove my ubuntu 13 partition, and replace it with my ubuntu 12 partition [00:29] dreadiscool_, you must have not given that newly created partition enough space [00:29] I gave it 120gb [00:29] I don't know how that's not enough :3 [00:30] So far nothing has been accomplished except 4 computer crashes [00:30] dreadiscool_, obviously you ran out of space [00:30] How though, the only thing I installed was google chrome [00:30] dreadiscool_: are you trying to run ubuntu from a flash drive or install it from a flash drive [00:31] It is running off my hdd right now on a 120gb partition [00:31] dreadiscool_: what is? 13.04? [00:31] you partitioned it wrong [00:31] Yes, it is 13.04 [00:31] 120gb is plenty for everything to run [00:31] Ben64 I used the slider thing on Ubuntu's installation thing [00:32] dreadiscool_: ok... you're jumping all over the place. focus on one thing at a time [00:32] hey [00:32] Here is my scenario - I have Ubuntu 13.04 running off a 120gb partition on my hdd. It is really bad, and crashy. I had installed it using a USB stick. Here is where I want to go - I want to clear my 120gb partition and use it to install Ubuntu 12 on it (better stability) [00:32] killer is there something you need to ask? [00:32] dreadiscool_: download the 12.04 iso, install unetbootin, run unetbootin and put the 12.04 iso onto the flash drive [00:33] Ben64 I have the iso [00:33] hi people, i am uisng ubunti 13.04 64 bit [00:33] What will unetbootin do differently that ubuntu's startup disk creator can't? [00:33] dreadiscool_: download the 12.04 ISO, use dd to put the ISO onto a USB stick, and reinstall 12.04 [00:33] When i plugin in my motorolla zoom via usb it mounts but shows an empty mtp folder [00:33] dreadiscool_: simple [00:33] My USB disk is now apparently filled with garbage [00:33] mtp://[usb:003,013]/ [00:33] dreadiscool_: DO NOT USE UNETBOOTIN [00:33] but no files show [00:33] any idea what is wrong? [00:33] gordonjcp it is not simple, because my flash drive has no space gahhh [00:33] Trying to wipe my flash drive resulted in it completely filling up... [00:34] dd will format it [00:34] dreadiscool_: doesn't matter [00:34] How am I supposed to install it then... [00:34] dreadiscool_: dd will nuke anything that is on there already [00:34] What is dd [00:34] dreadiscool_: it's a command in the terminal [00:34] it's very useful [00:34] I had windows on my lenovo netbook and it ran smoothly, but when i installe ubuntu on it with gome fallback mode, i cann't run even the basic videos smoothly thatwas smooth in windows 7 [00:34] it's very, very dangerous [00:34] I just ran it, what does it do [00:34] but hey, most useful things are somewhat dangerous [00:34] dreadiscool_, you forgot to say it is an U3 device [00:34] Fuck... [00:34] gordonjcp: its dangerous so use it instead of unetbootin? :| [00:34] dreadiscool_: it copies from one device to another [00:34] OerHeks: it's not [00:34] !language | dreadiscool_ [00:34] dreadiscool_: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family-friendly, polite, and professional.

For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI [00:51] ubottu: thanks! [00:51] You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) [00:52] :) [00:52] ubottu: my fellow bot [00:52] foobarfoobar: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [00:52] how can i grep for 'gps' in dmesg [00:53] Prock81: "dmesg | grep -i gps" [00:53] Prock81, dmesg | grep gps [00:54] * usercheck_ :is my question =stupied question? [00:54] Ben64, after all that, he could have used windows to reformat his usb drive and install the stupid iso, to redo ubuntu [00:55] for whatever reason dbus was messing up on him [00:55] * usercheck_ is my question =stupied question? [00:57] Bought a new motherboard/processor. Took off one old hd that I believe wasnt being used anyway. I have this on grub from ubuntu, to load arch linux, "linux /boot/vmlinuz-linux root=UUID=09fa9255-faac-4fb0-96e0-8623293d0927 ro", and when I boot, it says this uuid was not found, but it exists, my ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid shows my sda10 as such, lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 11 Jun 28 21:47 09fa9255-faac-4fb0-96e0-8623293d0927 -> ../../sda10 so whats wrong [00:57] xjkx this isn't arch [00:57] #arch I believe is where you want to be [00:58] wheatthin: the grub is in ubuntu [00:58] * usercheck_ peoples in this channel are smart,but i'm stupid. and my question is stupied.caused that, it is don't need to be answer.ok. [00:58] xjkx, umm so you have ubuntu and arch installed? [00:59] xjkx, http://askubuntu.com/questions/97560/adding-archlinux-to-dualboot-without-messing-up-grub [00:59] How does one set services to start on boot, I am looking for a chkconfig like utility on Ubuntu. (I am coming from mainly CentOS installs) [01:00] mnathani: what service? [01:00] mnathani: upstart is manual... ubuntu users aren't expected to "manage" services [01:00] mnathani, There is startup applications, you need to populate it though for what is starting now. [01:01] mnathani: is this on a server? Maybe you could ask in #ubuntu-server [01:01] yes, this is a server. Things like apache, bind, mysql [01:01] mnathani, those are setup automatically [01:01] how can i tell what /dev/* belongs to my gps, built into laptop [01:01] mnathani: this channel is mostly concerned with desktop Ubuntu, and you'll end up getting dodgy information [01:01] when you install them [01:01] Prock81: what does it show up as? [01:02] Prock81: USB serial? === FreakingShower is now known as FreakingTea [01:02] wheatthin: Yes, I'll check that thanks [01:02] i dont know, the card is usb for wifi, but it also has gps [01:03] mnathani: then it depends on whether or not the service still uses sysv-init or has been updated to use upstart. For services that use sysv-init (i.e. file exists for it in /etc/init.d), you can use sysv-rc-conf. For services that use upstart (i.e. file does not exist in /etc/init.d for it), you must edit files manually. Read about "manual overrides" in the upstart cookbook. But yes, when you install a [01:03] service, it should automatically be setup to start at boot [01:03] Prock81: poke around in dmesg and see what it says [01:03] Prock81: unfortunately there is no easy way to just say a magic word and have it come back with "THIS IS YOUR GPS" [01:03] Prock81: chances are it will show up as a serial device, maybe /dev/ttyUSB0 [01:04] my dmesg has so much in it now, before it looked clean, now that i been tring to get the gps going its full of nonsence [01:04] Prock81: anyway, when you find out what it is, you want to look into setting up a udev rule so it always stays on the same /dev/tty* port [01:04] Prock81: maybe try syslog, which is much the same thing [01:04] i have ttyUSB 0~2 [01:04] Prock81: oh cool [01:05] Prock81: as a very basic first test, try catting them [01:05] cat /dev/ttyUSB0 [01:05] and so on [01:05] maybe nothing will happen [01:05] there is one gps app that say it cant init /dev/ttyS0 ? [01:05] even if i tell it ttyUSB0 [01:06] Prock81: that's looking for a real physical serial port [01:06] Prock81: also check your permissions for the ports [01:07] Hi [01:07] Hey guys [01:07] cat /dev/ttyUSB0 just sits there [01:07] DatWolf, just state your question plz [01:07] and how to check my permissions for the ports [01:07] Well, I'm running 32bit ubuntu on my machine and I was considering switching to 64bit, is it worth the time to upgrade? [01:08] DatWolf, ehh depends.. on a few things [01:08] DatWolf: how much memory do you have? [01:08] What does it depend on? [01:08] I have 16gb [01:08] DatWolf, like how much ram you have installed, and what type of programs that must utilize more than 3gb of ram [01:08] DatWolf: lol, then that is a YES [01:09] So I should upgrade? [01:09] I would === BlackoutIsHere is now known as BlackoutIsHere|O [01:09] DatWolf: you can't really "upgrade" easily, you'd need to fresh install with 64bit [01:09] unless you install the pae kernel [01:09] I know. [01:09] But [01:09] It wont take me long to re-download and install my basic stuff... [01:10] DatWolf, if you don't want to reinstall, stick with 32bit. or install pae kernel [01:10] DatWolf: with 16GB memory, the answer is "yes you should be use 64bit" - 32bit+PAE is a "hack" (and not in a good way) [01:10] Well.. [01:10] it's not a hack.. it just doesn't have 64bit addressing [01:10] I'll be back in a bit... going to install 64bit [01:11] quickest way to re-format a flash drive in ubuntu? :) [01:11] DatWolf, using mkefs... but it really depends on what filesystem you want [01:12] mke2fs* [01:12] I want to format it to fat32 [01:12] because I'm going to use unetbootin to install ubuntu 64bit on it [01:12] how can i clean all apt-get (as i m getting errors) [01:12] DatWolf, use gparted [01:12] I have gparted.. [01:12] just no idea how to use it... [01:13] it's pretty easy [01:13] !gparted | DatWolf [01:13] DatWolf: 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 [01:13] :l [01:13] do I just.. [01:13] i'm use proxy. when i'm connect to google, i had get error:" http error 504:Gateway timeout" .then i'm try using another proxy ,its same in error.(504). but, when no use proxy:it is normally. is it caused by my system or proxies that i use?.thx [01:13] DatWolf: ok, if you can't use gparted, perhaps you should stick with 32bit (it's easier) [01:13] what type of proxies? [01:13] Socks or a http/https? [01:13] DatWolf, proxies? that's a whole new question [01:14] I'm talking to usercheck_ [01:14] ^ === BlackoutIsHere|O is now known as BlackoutIsHere [01:14] k.. well then use the nick first :) [01:15] usercheck_, if it's a tor proxy, then google doesn't allow queries from them [01:16] usercheck_: if you're going to use a proxy I'd suggest you go ahead and use a vpn... less likely to be blacklisted and normally faster. [01:16] DatWolf, proxy type= http === qos is now known as qos|away === qos|away is now known as qos [01:17] usercheck_, is it connected to a tor proxy exit node? [01:17] wheatthin, proxies that i mean proxy in plural. [01:17] usercheck_, so explain what connects to what [01:19] usercheck_, for instance, I have privoxy connected to torsocks proxy which is then using a tor exit nodes [01:19] DatWolf, i'm sorry, i'm not yet knowing about vpn .maybe i must learn it before. [01:19] wheatthin, i'm sorry too,about tor proxy, i'm not yet knowing it, so i will learn it before. [01:20] usercheck_, so what are you using as a proxy? [01:20] Well... usercheck_ is either a troll... or an idiot... [01:20] I'm not really sure... [01:21] DatWolf, please don't put down people in here [01:21] That was a nice as I could put it. [01:21] just reframe from commenting then [01:21] ehhhh [01:21] DatWolf, altought,i don't about vpn, but you are correct, caused seldom i'm get error. i think that what you say:blacklisted query. [01:22] It Worked!!! [01:22] !guidelines > DatWolf [01:22] DatWolf, please see my private message [01:22] usercheck_: Consider downloading a a program called hotspotshield [01:22] If your problem is blocked sites, it should do. [01:23] wheatthin, "so what are you using as a proxy", my answer: i'm using http proxy port 3128. [01:23] usercheck_, is this your native language? [01:23] usercheck_: What's your goal of using a proxy? [01:23] DatWolf, about a troll and idiot, am i idiot? [01:23] :l [01:23] He's a troll. [01:24] DatWolf, hotspotshield?,is it software? [01:24] hello guys , I've Nvidia 440 GT , i want to install the nvidia proprietary driver , and i see in the software source - additional driver tab i see 310 driver (tested) and 304 driver which one i choose to install [01:24] Yes. [01:24] It's a vpn. [01:24] usercheck_, What proxy are you using bro? simple question.. I'm not looking for your settings just yet [01:24] He's a fucking idiot [01:24] and doesnt speak English. [01:24] DatWolf, you're gonna get banned [01:25] DatWolf, i know that you are smart. so don't say to another person that he an idiot or similiar call.thx [01:25] usercheck_, so instead of paying attention to him listen to what I'm asking [01:26] usercheck_, are you using squid? [01:26] kelly: 310 was the driver nvidia + ubuntu made for steam. i'd recommend that one. [01:26] all:i'm sorry i'm reading all that you are typing. so i must slowly to read it,. [01:27] thank you , any suggestions after install the driver ? [01:27] wheatthin, i'm using http proxy [01:27] !squid | usercheck_ [01:27] usercheck_: squid is a caching proxy for the Web.

[01:28] usercheck_, You have to have a valid proxy setup first before you can use one [01:28] killer, close softwarecenter if you have it running at the same time [01:29] has anyone gotten an error where ~/.xsession-errors fills up their hard drive? [01:29] And is there a more elegant solution to this than removing that file and making a symlink to /dev/null with its name? [01:30] straemer, plz pastebin your file [01:30] I deleted it, it was ~70GB [01:30] holy geez [01:31] ya, the problem is that it just grew to a ridiculous size lol [01:31] if you did not fix the cause of the error, the new xsession-error will be filled again with an error that could help us solving [01:31] wheatthin, "You have to have a valid proxy setup first before you can use one", : so i have correct? [01:32] usercheck_, I don't know if you do or not. Did you? [01:32] straemer, yea, see what is filling it up and fix it or stop running that program [01:33] usercheck_, You have squid default settings, but you must have a squid proxy installed and running [01:33] wheatthin, i'm sorry sir. so what command that i can follow your sugestion? [01:33] alright, well it's only happened once. I'll just ignore it for now then I guess lol [01:34] wheatthin, that you mean, for this time, i'm not ye running it?, so i must running it? [01:34] *wheatthin, that you mean, for this time, i'm not yet running it?, so i must running it? [01:34] usercheck_, so there's no communication gap, what is your native language?

[01:49] @JoseeAntonioR acpi is actually advance configuration & power interface. I had a machine that needed to have that feature to boot properly until I could narrow it down more [01:49] foobarfoobar, Best help on uefi is at the UF check this help thread and start a thread if needed, and get some patience. ;) http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2147295 [01:49] Dr_willis: yes it worked on an old computer [01:50] dpkglock [01:50] Israel, if you give me a couple minutes I can try and boot with acpi off, and if it doesn't work I'll be back on the live DVD in a wile. [01:50] !dpkglock [01:50] If an APT front-end crashed and your database is locked, try this in a !terminal: « sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a » [01:50] killer ^^ [01:50] @JoseeAntonioR, what?? a liveDVD works? [01:51] Israel, yes, I'm on a live session right now. as I said, everything was working fine until I turned my PC today. I'm a regular user. [01:51] @JoseeAntonioR I didn't catch that... what happened? did you install something change a config file, update, etc?? what version are you running? [01:52] Israel, running under raring. yesterday I did an update but didn't actually catch what was it doing. [01:52] I am trying to turn off gnome-screensaver so that I can use xscreensaver, but if I try to run gnome-screensaver-command --exit from the "startup" items it still seems to be running after I login.

[01:53] sure [01:53] OerHeks: I have never seen this , sudo dpkg --configure -a,dpkg commandd not found [01:54] me neither :-( [01:54] killer, I think the command is dpkg-reconfigure [01:54] Yes. it is.

Then you can find out what borked the system. and remove that pacage [02:02] I can do it from the live session too, just need to find the right path :) [02:03] Israel: nope still the same error [02:03] http://pastebin.com/zzn97QBi [02:04] @JoseeAntonioR too right apparently you figured it out... it looks like you updated Mesa [02:04] @killer did you already run sudo dpkg -reconfigure -a [02:04] Israel, any idea on how to get it fixed? [02:05] Israel: yea [02:06] but it says dpkg command not found [02:06] how do you disable gnome-screensaver so that I can use xscreensaver?

(I skimmed over it once) I seem to remember mysql [02:11] @JoseeANtonioR not sure quite yet... there are 2 or 3 ways to do it... install from a PPA, force a downgrade to a previous package or look around for a workaround. [02:12] @killer it says dpkg command not found? are you sure you have the spaces correct? dpkg(SPACE)-configure(SPACE)-a === Guest26 is now known as rlgod [02:12] Prock81: I am guessing the dashes .. try " around it [02:12] @killer sorry !configure use reconfigure [02:13] whats the chrome browser add on that will change the .. um.. client name? so a site thinks I am using IE [02:13] k...

[02:19] wilee-nilee: thanks - [02:23] Israel: i think i deleted soe file of dpkg , other than that i upgraded kernel [02:25] @killer hmmm.... well whatever you deleted is what is causing this problem.... what version of ubuntu do you have? [02:25] 13.04 [02:29] @killer you will need to completely reinstall dpkg, then.... you tried using apt-get and that didn't work? Have you run sudo apt-get update? [02:30] yes, all of that [02:31] @killer http://packages.ubuntu.com/raring/dpkg has the package... choose 386 for intel or amd64 and pick the place to download it from, open it and install it. [02:32] I am not sure how you would "install" dpkg .. kinda a chicken n egg problem I bet [02:32] @JoseAntonioR are you still there? [02:32] maybe apt or gdebi don't use dpkg, but that seems odd [02:33] @CarlFK... oh yeah.... hmmm compile from source I suppose? gdebi I think uses dpkg... actually probably all debian package managers use dpkg in one way or another [02:34] @killer http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/d/dpkg/dpkg_1.16.10ubuntu1.tar.xz is the source.... [02:34] Israel: the dpkg you linked to is a zip? that has the binary in it.. maybe drop it in /tmp and use it to install itself?

[02:36] I have done alot of compilation stuff, on my previous linux systems,so i know how to compile [02:36] @CarlFK it is a deb file.... so you would need to open it with software center, or gdebi, (or sudo dpkg -i dpkg*.deb if it weren't chicken egg stuff) [02:37] @killer great.. it is really easy (usually... dependancies can be hard sometimes) , some people are not keen on it :) [02:38] but it has a lot of dependencies that ,usually i would do apt-get build-dep dpkg , but here it willl bee hard i guess [02:39] you could just fix it via livecd and chroot or some such [02:39] Israel: but a .deb is just a bunch of files .. like a zip or tar.. and it uses something like that [02:39] @killer I wish there was a cleaner simpler fix, but btrfs is not quite there for the snapshots.... [02:41] @CarlFK.... right.. I guess you could just read the control file and put things where they need to go.... but it would be cleaner to build it from source, i think... [02:41] @killer https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall [02:42] Israel: yeah - kinda depends on how broken the current system is - I haven't been following [02:42] @killer... but you probably don't already have that installed... [02:42] I asked before but I'm sorry, I already forgot the answer. I'm looking to buy a low-end inkjet printer. Are there brands I should be looking for? Staying away from? [02:43] What i was really trying to do was get video driver working for my netbook [02:43] @CarlFK I kinda came in late too... by all means your advice is much appreciated... I jut thought installing the deb file used the control file/fules file/ dpkg.install etc... to force it to install things in the right areas... [02:44] @killer what kind? Raedeon Nvidia? [02:45] Netbook , lenovo ideapad s110, ubuntu is n't able to play even the videos but what windows 7 used to play smoothlyy [02:45] netbook ,doesn't use graphic cards [02:48] killer, do you know which graphics chip and driver your netbook is using? If not, you can get it with : lspci -nnk | grep -iA2 vga [02:48] @killer I have never used a netbook...it must have integrated graphics, though [02:49] http://pastebin.com/thz4EK2j [02:49] how do you adjust the monitor sleep time? [02:49] yes, it has integrated graphics [02:50] Israel: carl@dc10:~/temp/y$ ar t dpkg_1.16.10ubuntu1_amd64.deb debian-binary ... shows 3 tar file, untar ... lots of files.. http://paste.ubuntu.com/5809706/ === EVILAWW is now known as EvilAww [02:53] @CarlFK nice... it is worth trying to figure out if you can simply untar it and install everything in the right place. [02:54] tones_ i dont remember the parameters but someone had help me stop my moniter from being able to blank out using "xset" [02:55] that was a different distro long agao [02:55] Prock81, now it's xrandr [02:56] I believe [02:56] Israel: my thought was to untar it all into a temp dir, then try to use the binary in that dir to: "dpkg -i dpkg_1.16.10ubuntu1_amd64.deb" but given how many files there are.. i doubt that will just work [02:56] that sounts familiar too lol [02:57] @killer have you been following CarlFK's last few statements? what do you think? [02:57] tones_, isn't "System Settings > Power > Suspend setting" what you want ? [02:57] xset and xrandr aren't in the repository [02:58] @CarlFK i think that you would have to manually do everything. manually extract each directory... the possibility of further borking it seems pretty large... [02:58] @CarlFK it seems they logged off anyway.... hmmm === Chenzw|away is now known as Chenzw [02:59] i know xset is already in 12.04 i just tried messing with it before i went to tri and help you [02:59] Israel: yeah - I was hoping there were just a few files... I have no idea what the right thing to do is [02:59] xrandr comes with xorg [02:59] varunendra, yes but it's set at an hour but it goes sleep sooner than that [03:02] tones_, are you sure it is "sleep" not just turning off the screen? (Brightness & Lock) [03:02] @CarlFK install the LTS on your production machine and use the other computer for the interim releases :) [03:03] Israel: heh.. yeah.. [03:03] tones_ does your power / charging light blink when it happens [03:04] Prock81, no [03:04] tones_, I see, you said "monitor sleep time", so it must be the "Brightness & Lock" setting. === Chenzw is now known as Chenzw|away [03:18] My dynamic dns address is no longer working after I ran apt-get remove mono-complete. How do I fix this? [03:19] The server is running ejabberd, apache, tt-rss and owncloud and all and inaccessible from the dynamic dns address. If that helps [03:27] does anyone know why programs to emulate the mouse using a gamepad doesn't work with games? [03:27] I'm tried qjoypad, and xpadder(using wine) and both of them had the same problem... [03:28] they work fine outside of games...but when I try to use them in-game its just point down to the ground and starts spinning [03:29] i'm using ubuntu 12.04LTS and my control is a generic 'DragonRise' controller [03:29] at least that's how linux detects it [03:29] the gamepad also works properly since i've used it on windows, and like i said things work outside of games [03:30] does anyone know of any guides on how to apt-get update/upgrade on a staging server and then sync those changes to a production server where the production server does not have a copy of gcc? [03:33] savagecroc: what does gcc have to do with it === luist_ is now known as luist === Giorgaras is now known as giwrgaras [03:40] reisio: because normally you need gcc to compile stuff [03:40] yes what does gcc have to do with apt? [03:40] right, but normally you don't compile stuff on Ubuntu [03:41] apt installs pre-compiled binaries. [03:41] ah right, so on a production server if i'm using apt, it's not normal for anything to be compiled? [03:41] ah excellent ok [03:41] it is the exception to have to manually compile something, yes [03:41] I'm stuck. How do I check what my Domaine name is please? [03:41] actually.. hmm, ruby gems have lots of natively compiled stuff [03:41] native-extensions [03:42] olskolirc: cat /etc/hostname [03:42] talking about jit? [03:42] reisio: nah not jit.. quite often you'll get a ruby gem (like a bundled library) which will contain c/c++ extensions [03:43] that must be compiled for that platform [03:43] it's a total pain [03:43] probably because ruby is unpopular compared to a few other things that are more popular [03:58] Unity has the Launcher bar at the left and it shows only a few programs.... is there a way to have something like the Win Start Menu ?(You know, where there's a list of programs installed) [03:59] A1Recon: switch to Xfce [03:59] A1Recon, open the top icon (=dash) and select one of the white icons at the bottom to browse [03:59] one of them is the old application menu [04:02] A1Recon, You can add to that bar. [04:04] A1Recon, I use an app called synapse that with ctrl-space shows a gui to search, you can assign keys to bring it up. [04:09] Anyone install Backtrack? [04:09] I already have a dual boot with Ubuntu and Windows 12.04 [04:09] that's what I have in my kmail savagecroc but it won't take - not such [04:09] james41382: try #polls [04:09] I want to install Backtrack 5 R3 and setup a multiboot system [04:09] james41382: get to it, then [04:10] reisio: huh? [04:10] james41382, This is ubuntu only support and no derivatives. ;) [04:10] james41382: huh [04:10] Oh I see... [04:10] =] [04:10] reisio: There is no one in #polls.

[04:16] kelly: either something or nothing [04:16] joossee: or something else [04:16] well is samba depricated oro whats the deal? [04:16] is it related to solve tearing ?!

[04:19] no [04:19] kelly you have the approrpiate nvidia 3rd party driver installed and activated? [04:20] i installed this driver 310.44 [04:20] ubuntu does have a known bug that 13.04 did not correct concerning video tearing in video players, also affects games to a small extent [04:20] screen tearing is a jagged line that appears somewhere near the centre of screen during video playback and some games stutff. artifacting is whene parts of graphics are kept on the screen... [04:20] it's apparently worse with newer nvidia cards... keplers specifically [04:21] anyways back to my issue: samba cifs or nfs for LXDE + pcmanfm (aka lubuntu) ???

[04:23] yes [04:23] thats it :) [04:23] and when you stop moving the window everything is fine? [04:24] yes [04:24] just when moving the window [04:24] do you notice tearing in anything else like videos?

Announcement: http://www.markshuttleworth.com/archives/1252 - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1 [04:42] Heya hiya. [04:42] Has anyone tried using Ubuntu as both a NAT router/firewall and a VPN client? [04:43] (That is to say, used it to do both functions simultaneously?) [04:45] yes, that's more iptables/ufw related [04:46] That certainly gives me a path to pursue. OpenVPN was a little vague on that. [04:46] depends on what type of vpn, ipsec/openvpn/pptp [04:46] OpenVPN is what the server is running, though PPTP /can/ be used. [04:46] oh yes definitely doable with openvpn [04:47] The fun part is that it'll function fine as one or the other. [04:47] openvpn in routed mode works fine for that. it's more tinkering with iptable rules for nat/not nat/masquarade [04:48] I've got a script that'll bring the VPN connection up or shut it down. I just can't do much through it as a NAT router after that. [04:48] Cool. [04:49] I appreciate the direction. I'll start looking at that. [04:50] there's a nat hack built into openvpn even that would work [04:51] it's kinda ugly because you lose full 2 way connection (1way with natted source address) depending on your needs that might work easiest [04:51] Well, basically masking the public facing IP address. [04:52] And making it a little more burdensome for Uncle Sam to see what I'm doing on the Internet. [04:52] Internet - Linkski rooter (heh) - Ubuntu box - network [04:53] Any way to browse what PPA packages are available? [04:53] Well, mostly. Internet - Ubuntu box - switch to LAN ethernet NIC - network + Linkski rooter as a WAP. [04:54] CLI_Cowboy: and a vps i'm assuming somewhere else on the internet? [04:54] !ppa | SuperLag just gotta search around the net, really [04:54] SuperLag just gotta search around the net, really: A Personal Package Archive (PPA) can provide alternate software not normally available in the offical Ubuntu repositories - Looking for a PPA? See https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas - WARNING: PPAs are unsupported third-party packages, and you use them at your own risk. See also !addppa and !ppa-purge [04:56] Hey all, I'm sorry for asking such a noobish question. I was curious if somebody could point me in the right direction to learn the basics of ubuntu. I'm running Lucid on an old iMac g5 and Precise on my laptop. Fresh from Windows [04:56] DuPe: They're all actual machines. [04:56] !lucid [04:56] Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (Lucid Lynx) was the twelfth release of Ubuntu. Desktop support ended May 9 2013. Server support continues. See http://ubottu.com/y/lucid for more details. [04:56] CLI_Cowboy: well what's the other end of the openvpn? which machines are running it? [04:56] matt__: you'll want to upgrade to a supported desktop [04:56] what are the 2 endpoints [04:57] I can't run Precise on my old G5, it's too resource intensive for this old dust-bag [04:57] Hey Matt__: Check out the book "Ubuntu Made Easy". [04:57] however, I've got 12.04 on my laptop right next to me, I just enjoy using the iMac for chat's and searches [04:57] matt__: there are nice wikis and guide for most things.. i would just use it, and see what you come up with, and keep in mind, lucid is not supported here, so you can discuss that in the offtopic channel [04:58] there should be a book called "cooking with ubuntu" if there isnt already [04:58] Thanks CLI, I appreciate it :] [04:58] Matt__: No problem - hopefully it gives you want you need. : ] [04:59] DuPe: There's not really much special about the VPN connection. It's $40 a year for a VPN service that keeps no logs or records of what I do while I'm on the Internet. [05:00] i ran $ setfacl -m d:g:www-data:rwx . in /tmp/ , but it seems apache still can not write to a file owned by root in /tmp/ [05:00] DuPe: The idea is that if someone's going to be looking at my Internet traffic, I want to make the task difficult by way of an encrypted connection. [05:00] CLI_Cowboy: oh yes, ok whew. i thought for a sec you were running openvpn on yur local machines :) [05:01] DuPe: Heh, no. I suppose I wasn't clear about that initially. :) [05:02] DuPe: I blew the dust off of an old machine running at P4 2.8 GHz, slapped a second Ethernet card in it, and set it up to work like a router. [05:02] VPN is a good layer of security [05:02] Sky: Yes, indeed. VPN = CYA === ReAzem___ is now known as reazem [05:03] CLI_Cowboy, i dont know why but your nickname reminds me of william gibsons books [05:03] Sky: I can see that. I can't say that I'm a big fan of his work, but his niche is something with which I can really relate. [05:03] yup :P [05:04] Sky: I didn't finish "Neuromancer", but I'd by lying if I said that that book wasn't at least part of the reason I got interested in *nix. [05:04] console cowboys [05:04] Yep. [05:04] i have read all of his works [05:05] I've been a fan of CLIs since I worked in DOS. I suppose the "cowboy" comes from my last job. I moved from the southeast U.S. to the northwest. Everyone out here says I walk like a cowboy. [05:05] he invented terms like cyberspace [05:05] heheheh :P [05:05] Yeah. He's not a fan of the Shadowrun games. :b [05:06] He considers Shadowrun to be some sort of bastard spawn of his work and Tolkien's. === matt__ is now known as Myth [05:07] maybe he is right === Myth is now known as Guest78679 [05:07] todays problems is lack of ideas, and drastically reuse of old ones so ...

Frequency scaling lets you use lower CPU frequencies to save power when the computer doesn't need to be fast [08:05] Froodle: the frequency you are seeing is the current CPU frequency. [08:05] candrea, Ah, okay. Then how can I see the maximum frequency? [08:05] Froodle: try to compile something or do some heavy operation and you'll see the frequency going up [08:07] Gotcha.

[09:27] darkowlzz: so... you have libsqlite3-0 as a locally installed package [09:27] darkowlzz: let me check where it comes from [09:27] just4confusion: Then don't /bin/false them if they need a shell [09:28] darkowlzz: it comes from precise-updates. It seems you had -updates enabled some time ago and then you disabled it. I strongly recommend you to re-enable it, not just to have sqlite3-dev installed, but also to get all the other Ubuntu updates [09:29] just4confusion: try with sudo should work even if they don't have a shell [09:30] candrea, I installed libsqlite3-0 from source, using [09:30] Nice one. Thank you! [09:30] *using make [09:31] where should i go for upport for bumblebee? [09:31] darkowlzz: mh... that's odd because your 'apt-cache policy' tells you had installed it using apt-get. And 3.7.9-2ubuntu1.1 is exactly the version in precise-updates [09:32] darkowlzz: anyhow, I wouldn't suggest installing a part of a package from source and a part from the repositories [09:32] oh! lemme uninstall it [09:32] how do the floodbots work? [09:32] done! [09:33] darkowlzz: what did you uninstall? the package from apt or the one you installed from sources?

I opened up Ubuntu Software center this morning to install Steam, and it says "Buy". As far as I know Steam is supposed to be free. Am I doing something wrong here? Thanks in advance for your help.

Raring is only supported til Jan 2014 [10:56] no i mean, not for development for ubuntu [10:56] "only" [10:56] development in general [10:57] im scared that updating will break everything and ill lose 3 days trying to sort out the kinks haha [10:57] jaxkw411: id stick to the lts unless you need the later versions of packages in raring. you will need to upgrade to 12.10 first if you are not clean installing [10:57] is it better to just clean install when you upgrade? [10:57] jackw411: id stick with the lts personally [10:57] nice [10:58] jackw411: i always clean install, fewer issues [10:58] yeah i figured that would be the case [10:59] im only about 6 months in to my linux journey, its amazing to develop software in, but it still scares the bejesus out of me [10:59] jackw411: you'll learn with time [11:03] hi [11:05] it is possible to lunch multiple Skype account on Ubuntu 12.04LTS please ?

Thanks for your reply [11:26] ActionParsnip: you mean it is n't supported yet? [11:26] mastro: sorry, maybe I missed that then. I thought you just wanted somewhere common to put stuff [11:27] ActionParsnip: Thanks, but I can't connect to it (ssh is closed_ [11:27] mastro: then, set up the equivalent of Samba on Windows, and mount it in Ubuntu [11:27] killer: yes but they need an xorg.conf file to srt better settings than udev can detect. Doesnt mean its not suported [11:27] gordonjcp, nope, I'd use Linux for most of the work so the whole disk (physical disk) would have to be shared between the two [11:27] mastro: dual-boot... ;-) [11:28] killer: what is the output of: cat /etc/issue [11:28] gordonjcp, some background: the laptops us RST technology (slow, big, hard drive + ssd as cached system in a fake raid configuration) -- this kind of configuration plus UEFI boot makes it an hell configure and set it up a dual boot [11:29] gordonjcp, so I'm exploring different routes to achieve what I want: Linux experience, maximum performance, do not under-use the hardware [11:29] mastro: sharing ntfs can be a pain in samba. [11:29] mastro: yeah, but if it was easy you'd just get bored [11:29] mastro: to get acceptable performance you're going to want Ubuntu on its own partition anyway [11:30] ActionParsnip: ubuntu \n \l [11:30] gordonjcp, sure, well.. but sometimes I really miss the "just-work" thing people get on Mac and Windows [11:30] mastro: the ssd is still sata so is 300mbps [11:31] killer: and the output of: lsb_release -sc [11:31] ActionParsnip, read about RST, the ssd is used in a fake RAID configuration to accelerate access to the other disc. This is done via software. [11:31] ActionParsnip, Intel provided some very basic support for it in Linux but setting up a dual boot is a real pain in the ?ss [11:33] Has anyone used Ubuntu Remote ? It's an Android App... [11:33] The ideal thing to me would be the opposite: Linux and virtualized windows. I'm trying to get as close as possible to that [11:33] without loosing performance in the process [11:34] mastro: I miss the "just work" thing that I get in Linux and OSX, when I use Windows... [11:34] mastro: try a pciexpress ssd, it'll smoke your ssd drives [11:35] mastro: either way round, you really need a separate partition for the virtual machine's disk [11:36] mastro: put pagefile, Windows temp, lunux swap, /var and /home on the platter based drive and put both OSes on the platter based drive. Then have a central NTFS partition for casual user data which is mounted in both OSes [11:36] gordonjcp, that really depends on the stuff :) I agree with you in some area (I've not used Linux in the last 10 years for nothing) -- still things like this RST just work on Windows, they are a pain on Windows. Will it change in the future? sure, probably, but I have this laptop NOW [11:36] RST?

[11:38] ciaoo [11:38] utente, greetings [11:38] mastro: your browser when it visits a new web page - stores that web page for use at a later date [11:38] along with images etc [11:39] mastro: yes, the folder your web browser puts temo internet files in..... [11:39] mastro: $HOME/.cache/google-chrome for Chrome [11:40] jackw411, ActionParsnip who cares about browser cache :D I need to keep my git repository around, programming, using the terminal and stuff like that -- the browser is the less problematic thing [11:40] yeah i use git for everything [11:41] mastro: because you are writing it to the drive, why bother when you have broadband. Plus it clears the useless data off when you reboot. Makes the browser faster as it doesnt have to save the data to the drive [11:41] Has anyone used the Ubuntu Remote before?? Its an android app which allows remote control of the Ubuntu System. Can someone tell me what these codes "sleep 5" "ethtool -s eth0 wol g" when inserted in "autostart script(/etc/rc.local)". Its in the app description . Description here >> [11:41] https://play.google.com/stor/apps/details?id=com.inspiredandroid.linuxcontrolcenter&hl=en [11:41] I'm with ActionParsnip -> persistant cache is a ballache from a developers pov [11:41] mastro: also, manipulating files (like compiling) using tempfs also makes it faster [11:42] mastro: the more you can work in RAM the better [11:42] A1Recon We're sorry, the requested URL was not found on this server.

[11:45] ubuntu remote control looks promising, but probably something does not work as there are so many people who pushed 1 star [11:45] aqrecon: the ethtool man page will tell you what the command does [11:45] mastro: why not just virtualbox the windows install and circumvent all that [11:46] jackw411, I explained that in my first question [11:47] jackw411, long story short: setting up RST on Linux is a pain in the ?ss [11:47] jackw411, and I need a reliable machine to work with, using the top performance it gets me. [11:47] id just get hardware raid :-) if you need real speed [11:47] ActionParsnip: simple remote? [11:48] ActionParsnip, sure, I'll buy one and hammer it inside the laptop [11:48] a1recon: yes. controls mouse and keyboard. on a remote pc. there is a native server side app [11:48] xD [11:48] ActionParsnip : I would like to know how do I fix for WD hard drive which having intelligent park of 8 sec problem ? [11:49] mastro: dev on laptops is painful. the guys whre i work refuse to work on laptops [11:49] nbubuntu: i have no idea what that means [11:50] nbubuntu: try ##hardware if its a hardware issue [11:50] ActionParsnip, developing on laptop is the best thing to do. For many reasons. Main one is that I do not stay in the same place all the time, and I often take my work with me [11:51] ActionParsnip : I mean HD smart load cycle count [11:51] mastro: im of that school of thought also [11:51] nbubuntu: not something ive played with....sorry [11:52] ActionParsnip : oh , what I wanted is how to do a bootable DOS cd to fix it [11:52] ActionParsnip : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1565889 [11:52] im looking at getting a zenbook prime next [11:52] nbubuntu: ultimate boot cd has that i believe.

I get a problem with booting causes i edit grub.cfg in wrong way, now i can't boot, when booting go to boot rescue, and now the problem make me confused. I don't have even life cd and live usb.. Need help, this evening i can get into busybox, but the problem is, the boot dir when on busy box can't be found, so i need help, someone who knows about this, i really need my computer back online... === ava is now known as Guest71734 === master4528 is now known as master4523 [12:12] hmmmm [12:14] BenyaminL: Maybe something simple like uninstall grub and reinstall it? Then you should get a default config. Then you need to run it to make it write to disk though. [12:15] I've shared a folder with samba. in smb.conf i've set the share with guest ok = no. user = security. I made a user on my ubuntu server with the same name and PW as the user on my windows machine. When i try to authenticate to the share from my windows machine i can't log on. I'm certain im writing the same username and pw as i added on my linux box. What gives? [12:15] I'm not giving any guarantees though, just suggesting... [12:15] BenyaminL: And if you don't have a live cd, maybe you need one [12:15] coman47: what mean? I don't get the point [12:16] Yeah, i think that's the problem, because i'm in vacation, so didn't bring anything about ubuntu... [12:16] OK, yeah I guess you cannot do it since you cannot boot your system. [12:16] hi, i just installed all ndiswrapper-* stuff but i'm still getting "FATAL: Module ndiswrapper not found.". Is there a known bug about this? [12:17] conman47 : Hmm... Conman47 you talk to? [12:17] LPhas: does `modprobe -l | grep ndisw' find it ? [12:17] if not you might use depmod -av [12:17] BenyaminL: to you. What I meant was apt-get remove and apt-get install grub, to get a default config back. but if you're not in your system I guess you can't [12:18] mnice, "modprobe: invalid option -- 'l'" [12:18] BenyaminL: If you can't boot your system and you have no other system, you need a live cd or something right? What did you mean by you can "get into busybox"? [12:18] mnice, whiel sudo depmod -av | grep ndisw returns nothing [12:19] mnice, and i've already tried with depmod -a before btw [12:19] mnice, i'm quite sure that the module is not here... [12:19] uf .. if modprobe -l doesn't list it's not there with sure [12:20] mnice, -l seems not a known flag of modprobe [12:20] i read grub manual, it can boot into busybox, but in the busybox i can't do anything == [12:21] # modprobe -h 2>&1|tail -n1 [12:21] modprobe -l -t [ -a ...] [12:22] so probablu you have some different modprobe [12:22] BenyaminL: Can you mount your root fs? Can you run a text editor?

[12:23] I try to pxe boot a live-cd that is based on ubuntu, but always end up in a busybox shell. How can I diagnose from there? [12:23] mnice, yeah, that's strange [12:23] mnice, are you using ubuntu 13.04? [12:23] conman47:that's good, the problem, i can do nothing there, rrrrrr [12:24] LPhas: sorry i can't help .. i came here also for asing .. i don't use ubu at all (i hate ubu :D) but as a linux expert the friend of mine asked me to fix some issue for him so i'm just trying right now [12:24] BenyaminL: so the answer is no, you cannot run mount with busybox? [12:24] nobody knows an answer for my questions because "it's ubuntu" :D .. like "this is SPARTA" [12:24] Yeah, that's right [12:25] conman47 : that's right brother [12:25] mnice, lol i think i'm not that big ubuntu fan myself. brofist [12:26] i wanna move to debian from ubuntu, i dont like the direction canonical are taking with all the amazon bloat etc [12:26] BenyaminL: Not sure what you expect anyone to say to help you then. You need a system that can boot and give you some basic commands. Then you need to mount your filesystem, and fix your errors. Go get a live cd or similar, or physically take out the harddrive and connect it to a working computer. [12:27] ...and good luck! :) [12:27] jackw411: you can easily turn that shopping list of or uninstall that. [12:27] Conman47:I hope so, thx.. Hmm.. Indonesia.... [12:28] k1l_: its not just that though - theres a few things, my plan when work dies down over christmas is to port my whole workflow to stripped down barebones debian and a tiling WM === pepigno75 is now known as warpmobile [12:29] wow, hit-and-run... [12:29] jackw411: just noting, that ubuntu got alot of other DEs and WM in the repos. [12:30] A related question from me (not to BenyaminL). Why is busybox installed by default in ubuntu? What is its purpose when bash+other binaries are there also? [12:30] hey [12:30] hahaha k1l_ im fully aware -> currently using 12.04 with awesome, ive tried a few and i liked awesomes default keybindings [12:31] ubuntu tr yok mu be [12:31] How do i give a spesific group read/write/execute permissions on folder? [12:31] jackw411: you dont have the amazon shopping lense in awesome :) [12:31] Am i close with chmod +rwx /folder/ ? [12:31] Vec_: no [12:32] jackw411: Could you enlighten me? ^^ [12:32] Vec_: chmod -R permissions /folder/ [12:32] jackw411: where does the spesific group get involved in those permissions? [12:33] afaik that command only sets global permissions on that folder? [12:33] Vec_: you do chgrp -R group /folder/ [12:33] ah [12:33] -R does it for everything inside [12:33] recursively [12:33] hey , i got intel chip gma_500 and it suck with while playing videos but is ok in windows ,i use ubuntu 13.04 [12:33] jackw411: many thanks [12:35] hi, i'm installing ubuntu 13.04 but I have a problem with the graphic and I cannot reconfigure it with the graphic tools [12:35] how can I do that from the command line? [12:35] jackw411: Where does the permissions go tho? sudo chgrp -r /folder/ - but no permissions? [12:35] i guess +permissions [12:35] dpkg-reconfigure xorg says that /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked [12:36] i keep getting "[ERROR]Cannot access secondary GPU - error: [XORG] (EE) No devices detected. - Aborting because fallback start is disabled." When i am trying to use optirum (or primusrun) i have tried to follow guides online and figure out how to handle the issue, but i just cant get it working at all. im running 12.10 with a Geforce 670M [12:36] !chgrp [12:36] Vec_: are you trying to give the group ownership of the files [12:36] or just give them permissions but retain owner? [12:36] Just give permissions [12:37] ah [12:37] i just change ownership and set permissions [12:37] what does it mean to xd unpack a file with 7zip? i'm trying to decompile a swf file in ubuntu [12:37] and i've heard i can use 7zip [12:37] Im sharing a folder over samba. Security=user, ive added users and try to log on with them. But i think i need to set permissions for the users in my linux box [12:37] cant boot from USB :S [12:38] Vec_: you sure that isn't in Samba configuration?

[14:03] le_tigra: ... for other driver software. Or consider another display adapter. [14:03] Haze-_: xchat is in the ubuntu repos and easy to install [14:04] k1l_ xchat is only trial then pay, correct ? i was wondering if theres a free irc app [14:04] yea ubuntiv, 9.10 works well with my card [14:04] Haze-_: yes [14:04] reisio, thanks [14:04] Haze-_: no, xchat is completely open source [14:04] Haze-_: no, its free for linux [14:04] reisio ahh ok [14:04] and hexchat is a more maintained version of xchat [14:04] le_tigra: Of course, we are only speculating. [14:04] it's free for windows as well [14:04] there is one illegal implementation of xchat that isn't free for windows [14:04] out of many [14:04] reisio: not the xchat builds.

See also !addppa and !ppa-purge [16:03] (boost 4.7, gcc 4.7) [16:03] and then bring application to another lucid with no PPA [16:03] hero_biz: specifially, the "unsupported" bit.. can be tricky [16:03] *boost 1.47 [16:03] yea [16:04] i wonderign if it is possible or not [16:04] i don't want to install all PPA pachages on parget [16:04] is it ossible to add all deps to my .deb file in source counter [16:04] hero_biz: its all open, so pretty much, anything is "possible".. the issue is that you are on your own.. since lucid for the desktop is not supported, and the ppa maintainers are responsible for the ppa's [16:04] so i don't need additional dependencies on target computer? [16:05] hero_biz: i would upgrade to a supported version of ubuntu, if you can [16:05] i cannot [16:06] i usign a openvz lucid for my vps as target [16:06] H [16:06] anybody know my issue? [16:06] cannot upgrade it to 12.04 [16:06] hero_biz: 10.04 desktop isnt supported here :/ [16:06] then i wana compile my code on my home pc with lucid, then bring compiled code to my vps [16:08] hello, has anyone here tried using the resynthesizer plugin with gimp 2.8.6? [16:09] Sorry, I didn't finish editing the question above and now it looks confusing. Here's the first part again: [16:09] I am trying to configure key-based SSH login to my deskop machine [host] from my laptop [client]. My home directory on both machines in encrypted. I have followed the directions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH/OpenSSH/Keys#Troubleshooting for making key-based login work with an encrypted home, but when I try to log in to the host from the client, I get the error "Agent admitted failure to sign using the key." and it asks for my password for the host [16:09] maliciouspony: so what is your question, you might wanna try gimp on gimpnet [16:09] At the help link above, it says to put my authorized_keys file in /etc/ssh/myusername and edit sshd_config to look there for authorized_keys. I've done that on the host machine, I have the permissions set per instructions, but I'm still getting the error. I've googled this and can't seem to figure out what I'm doing wrong. What would you recommend I check first to troubleshoot? [16:10] twig11: can you login with passwords? [16:10] holstein: yes === funky is now known as alex_fun [16:11] twig11: i'd highly recommend just using the ssh-copy-id utility myself... good luck. [16:11] whoever: I cannot get it to work, I get an error. [16:12] whoever: is there a place where I can download an older version of gimp to try it out? [16:12] zykotick9: I'll try that. Reading the manual now... [16:13] anyone know an easy way to add an app to the launcher bar via the command line ? [16:14] maliciouspony: you might wanna try #gimp but what is there error , it could be that the pluggin wasn't maintained to work with the neweR version [16:14] whoever: I did that, but no one replied to me [16:14] maliciouspony: just google gnu-gimp, there site will come up [16:14] whoever: that's the conclusion I came to as well [16:14] whoever: alright, I'll try that, thanks [16:15] holstein, zykotick9: Any enlightenment on what the "Agent admitted failure to sign using the key" indicates? [16:15] maliciouspony: then you either didn't wait long enough for someone to answer, or no one at that time knew an answer [16:16] whoever: I waited for 5 minutes or so [16:16] maliciouspony: so what is the error ? is it something like some lib could not be found [16:16] twig11: i would try and remove variables, because im not all that personally savvy.. i have other machines, so i would try without an encrypted home, to make sure that is the issue.. i would try without passwords.. with different keys. whatever else would isolate variables [16:16] maliciouspony: you may need to wait hours [16:16] maliciouspony: that channel desn't seem to be verry talkative [16:17] whoever: I don't remember now haha, I tried removing gimp in order to install a newer version. [16:17] whoever: wow, okay. Usually I get a response in a few minutes, so I didn't know it could take hours [16:17] maliciouspony: if you've added a PPA, i would purge it, and go back to the default "supported" version and test [16:18] maliciouspony: sometimes you can even be waiting days or weeks [16:18] maliciouspony: i have literally waited weeks in IRC channels for help.. keep in mind, most if not all are volnuteers [16:18] volunteers* === yctn is now known as ws2k3 [16:18] holstein: I haven't added anything yet, I just removed the new version [16:18] holstein: hmm I'll keep that in mind [16:18] maliciouspony: you also may need to ask your question again every few hours since new commoers to the channel won't be able to scroll up [16:20] maliciouspony: where did you get this plugin from the ubuntu repos or compile it from source [16:20] holstein: Thanks, that's probably what I'll be doing. I was just hoping somebody here might understand that error better than I do, perhaps narrowing the scope of my search. I'll see what I can discover. [16:20] whoever: I got it from the repos [16:20] whoever: here it is http://registry.gimp.org/node/25219 [16:20] twig11: try #networking, there are some bright guys there [16:20] looking for a solution to sync two folders via ssh(fs) like dropbox - any ideas? [16:21] maliciouspony: was the new gimp from the repos or from source [16:21] whoever: that's a freenode channel? [16:21] twig11: yes [16:21] How am I supposed to update GRUB on an LVM system (13.04) if it keeps telling me I have "no space left on device"? [16:22] whoever: ok thanks I may try over there. [16:22] SonikkuAmerica: it is grub2 [16:22] twig11: ok, i may follow you, since i just wanna see the answer [16:22] whoever: And...? GRUB 2 is the default...! [16:23] whoever: (Neither one works) [16:23] and the error you got is why i haven't relly tried to use that auth [16:23] SonikkuAmerica: yes [16:23] whoever: sure. I'm trying again: I just got dumped into ##overflow [16:23] SonikkuAmerica: grub2 is edited differently then old grub [16:24] SonikkuAmerica: you don't directly edit it [16:24] looking for a solution to sync two folders via ssh(fs) like dropbox - any ideas? [16:24] whoever: So? I know how GRUB 2 works... [16:24] SonikkuAmerica: oh, then have at it [16:24] SonikkuAmerica: i didn't know you knew how it works [16:24] thanks for the heads up [16:25] ciao [16:25] whoever: I didn't think that was necessary... but I can't use grml because of it either... /boot is just outta space. [16:25] twig11: did you make it into networking [16:26] whoever: no, looks like I might need to register. Doing that now. [16:26] twig11: yes you will === |Jurgen| is now known as |Den_Alien| [16:32] twig11: you still here [16:35] Hi there ubuntu gurus. Looking for a simple way to remove files based on the presence of a file with same basename. see http://askubuntu.com/questions/314359/rm-if-theres-a-file-with-same-basename === launch is now known as Guest9186 === darek is now known as Guest6877 === tm_ is now known as tm [16:37] whoever: Still here. I just posted over at #networking. [16:38] Quick question. Who do we contact to update some information that ubottu gives out? Or to add a topic to the bots list? [16:38] hello I have installed fish-shell and changed the link /bin/sh to point to fish-shell. now my system is not booting. how to resolve this?? [16:38] looking for a solution to sync two folders via ssh(fs) like dropbox - any ideas? [16:39] how can I save my route configuration? [16:40] raven, maybe scp with a script to automate it? [16:41] aringan: route configuration? Do you mean which gateway and nameservers (DNS) you're using? [16:42] aringan: /etc/network/interfaces [16:42] [URGENT REALLY URGENT] hello I have installed fish-shell and changed the link /bin/sh to point to fish-shell. now my system is not booting. how to resolve this?? [16:42] I can't see my route configuration on that file ! [16:43] aringan: YOu asked "how can I save my route configuration?" So, what is your *real* question? [16:43] I typed vim /etc/network/interface [16:44] arulmozhi: When you start the computer, hold down your shift key (I think that's the correct one) to bring up a Grub screen. Choose one of the Recovery Modes, and if it boots, change it back. [16:44] but I can't see my route configurioan to correct it [16:44] aringan: Adding gateway 192.168.x.x will set your gateway to gateway 192.168.x.x [16:44] or save it [16:44] aringan: /etc/network/interfaces [16:44] @PatrickDickey: even rescue is not booting [16:44] aringan: interfaces (note the s at the end), you're trying to create a new file. Also, you'll need to use sudo to edit that file. [16:44] when I type "route -a" it is different from that file [16:44] I have a fedora installed [16:45] aringan: Let's start over. What is it that you want to accomplish? === meh76 is now known as gameid [16:45] arulmozhi: You might want to ask in #fedora then. But, either way, you should still have Recovery mode. [16:45] hello. i posted this on the forums, but hopefully someone can help me. in 13.04 amd64, i added the line "ehci_hcd.ignore_OC=1" to grub to get the kernel to stop pushing out the message "hub 2-1:1.0 over-current condition on port [3|4]". this works on my Arch partition. any clues on how to get this work in my ubuntu partition? [16:45] I changed my network configuration and also my default route . but when I reboot my OS it looses the configuration [16:46] aringan: edit /etc/network/interfaces [16:47] can I send you private message ? [16:48] aringan: See my PM === gameid is now known as nevar [16:49] what does grep do? [16:49] <.< wonders wich package contains cc. O.O installed gcc-base,cpp,gcc,g++ but still have not found it...O.O === nevar is now known as Gameid [16:50] frloop: grep searches for regular expressions. it's a search tool. [16:50] nice thx [16:50] good toool === scott__ is now known as Dragnslcr [16:50] does ubuntu come with a ftp server? [16:51] frloop: fyi, -i with grep to search for upper & lower case is very handy. [16:51] frloop: ftp must die!!! [16:53] ftp is fine [16:53] okay does ubuntu come with a web server then? [16:54] frloop: ftp is NOT fine. see http://mywiki.wooledge.org/FtpMustDie for some details. === Chenzw|away is now known as Chenzw [16:54] frloop: you can install ftp and http servers if you wish. [16:54] neothecat: You could add that as a default command line entry in Grub. (look in Grub.cfg for the words quiet splash, and add it after splash). I would recommend hitting "e" at the Grub screen though, and manually adding it to make sure it works though first. [16:54] lua not support string.reverse() ? [16:54] http://pastebin.com/J88Sims0 [16:54] is there any thing wrong? [16:55] Is there a program that can play back audio embedded in a PDF? [16:56] PatrickDickey: i did do that, i even checked it when the grub menu comes up the after changing /etc/default/grub and running update-grub, it actually did modify the grub menu. [16:56] i compared it to the grub menu in my Arch partition to make sure it was the same [16:57] And you're still getting the error when you boot ubuntu then? [16:57] yup, dmesg (and any tty) gets flooded with that message. [16:58] <[OS]Cazazo> Hi all [16:59] <[OS]Cazazo> I need help with ubuntu 13.04 [16:59] <[OS]Cazazo> when clicking any link outside of the browser it takes forever to open [16:59] <[OS]Cazazo> like more than 2 mins [17:00] <[OS]Cazazo> any Ideas? [17:00] I upgraded to ubuntu 13 not long ago but my laptop is mega slow. This laptop is not super old (less than 3 yrs) so the processor and ram are not bad at all... Any clue on what apps should I remove or anything I: can do to improve my lap performace? [17:01] drago: how much RAM does it have? [17:01] gordonjcp: 2gb [17:02] drago: Did you install proprietary graphics drivers? [17:02] zero2XIII: no [17:03] drago: try that, especialy if you are running unity 3D (That is selected during log-in) [17:03] drago: that's a good point, what kind of graphics chipset does it have? [17:03] Hi again, i got it now usr13, my plymotuh wasnt running correctly, so i deactivate it. thx for your help ;) [17:05] and im got rly bad problems with the networkmanager in ubuntu 13.04 so i decide to uninstall it and set my interfaces manually... [17:06] <[OS]Cazazo> how can i reinstall google chrome?? [17:06] <[OS]Cazazo> sudo apt-get --reinstall install ??? [17:06] hello, I have installed a second HDD in my computer via SATA (WD Blue 1 TB) and everything works with the HDD formatted to ext3, but just a minute ago the screen went black several times just like there was no signal, and when the screen appeared, the system seemed to have got stuck, can that be due to the second HDD? [17:08] <[OS]Cazazo> hum [17:09] [OS]Cazazo: man apt-get please [17:09] [OS]Cazazo: "man apt-get" [17:10] <[OS]Cazazo> yes i did it [17:10] <[OS]Cazazo> and now? [17:10] find the cmd [17:10] [OS]Cazazo: read? Your answer is in there... [17:10] <[OS]Cazazo> ok [17:10] <[OS]Cazazo> ty [17:11] [OS]Cazazo: sure.. If you still cant figure it out.. then ask [17:11] <[OS]Cazazo> I was reinstalling... [17:11] <[OS]Cazazo> the problem is that any link I click outside the browser takes around 3 mins to open [17:12] Is installing ubuntu via usb stick still broken? [17:12] [OS]Cazazo: I have no idea what might cause that. [17:13] <[OS]Cazazo> kk np... I'll see if reinstalling the google chrome will do the trick [17:13] <[OS]Cazazo> zero2XIII: thanks mate [17:14] [OS]Cazazo: Sure, good luck though... also give "chromium" or something a shot.. it is an opensource remake of chrome === twss is now known as away === cubemaster is now known as iliekc00bies [17:16] Hello, has anyone got Netflix-desktop working? [17:17] are there still natty repos around somewhere? [17:17] can my second HDD make ubuntu crash? [17:17] I've got it installed, but I don't have a Netflix account to try it out with. [17:17] Lunar_Lander, why do you want to do that for [17:17] !eolupgrades | felix__ [17:17] felix__: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades [17:18] bazhang: thx [17:18] PatrickDickey: I'm currently on 12.04 with the newest updates installed, but when I click on Netflix Desktop nothing opens up, any ideas? [17:18] I just wanted to know if the crash I had several minutes ago with the screen going black and stuff is related to the second HDD [17:18] Lunar_Lander: I think a bit more information is needed. Adding a second (or third, or in my case fourth) hdd shouldn't affect whether or not Ubuntu works. Of course adding one while it's running (if it's not an external) might cause issues. [17:18] Lunar_Lander: plug it out and see... and I second PatrickDickey [17:19] I installed it when the PC was off [17:19] ##trollbox [17:19] and then I powered up and formatted it in the drive manager to ext3 and then copied over some files from the first HDD because that was almost completely full [17:19] if my computer doesnt have an optical drive, what is the best way (that actually works) to install ubuntu server edition 12.04 ? [17:19] how I hate this ubuntu interface [17:19] Also another question, I have heard so much about how amazing vim is and decided to try it out, but I'll also head Emacs is really good, would you guys recommend Vim, gVim or Emac? [17:20] fusa_, then use something different [17:20] and then I went online, got updates and checked E-Mail and so on, and suddenly on Facebook the screen started to go black, come back on and then stayed black, as if there was no signal [17:20] !notunity | fusa_ [17:20] fusa_: 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. [17:20] bazhang: haqrd to find it [17:20] twig11: so you where using a passphase , when you didn't need it ? [17:20] fusa_, install gnome-shell , nothing hard at all [17:20] bloke: liveUSB would be my first, second chose to optical [17:21] choice [17:21] whoever: I'm a little paranoid. [17:21] thanks PatrickDickey and zero2XIII , just hope that doesn't happen again [17:21] cheers zero [17:22] bazhang: OK, and why isn't any option to use other interfaces in the menu in the first place? [17:22] partounian: Do you get any error messages? I just tried mine, and got one about the wine-gecko installation, but it opened (of course I'm not on 12.04--I'm on Lubuntu 13.04). [17:22] I have used Adobe Acrobat on Windows, and it can play audio embedded in a PDF. But none of the Linux PDF viewers I have used will play audio even when I have the codecs installed. [17:22] fusa_, need to install them, thats why [17:22] whoever: I don't know if I "need" it or not, but I put one on because it increases the security and I don't mind the inconvenience. I'm pretty fast with a password manager. :) [17:22] PatrickDickey: I have nothing at all... I also tried rm -Rf ~/.netflix-desktop to no avail [17:23] lubuntu-desktop, kubuntu-desktop, xubuntu-desktop are easily installable fusa_ [17:23] Is there a Linux program that can play embedded audio? [17:23] twig11: are you on a common port , if so then it's added security [17:23] if not its added more security [17:24] fusa_: I think they figured, if you wanted to install some other desktop, you'd have used that LiveCD. Also as bazhang pointed out, it's a simple "sudo apt-get install ...." to get them. [17:24] twig11: i see it like an alarm systemon a house , you have to either unlock and clear the alarm , or you just have to unlock the door to get access === Chenzw is now known as Chenzw|away [17:25] bazhang: I tried one another desktop... but still I have the problem, I want it to *work* [17:26] fusa_, give some actual detailed errors and examples [17:26] I mean: is there any preview? [17:26] fusa_, and pastebin them [17:26] My error is usability [17:26] fusa_, sure, there are tons and tons of screenshot sites [17:26] menu in the bottom [17:26] etc. === HisaoNakai is now known as LanHikari [17:27] fusa_, did you even read any of the info I gave you? the one with the classic look is available [17:27] I don't want to live for the sole purpose of relearning some stupid user interface ... [17:28] fusa_, this is not the rants/complaints channel. I gave you an exact bit of info for the old style menu on the bottom classic look [17:28] bazhang: just a moment, there is a lot of text above, I'm trying to find your line, how do I find it again? [17:29] !notunity | fusa_ read this carefully this time [17:29] fusa_ read this carefully this time: 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. [17:29] neothecat: Still here? https://www.google.com/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&ie=UTF-8#sclient=psy-ab&q=disabling+ehci+over-current+checks+on+ubuntu&oq=disabling+ehci+over-current+checks+on+ubuntu might give you some ideas of what to do. No guarantees though. [17:30] ookay, I have to copy and paste it quickly, right? [17:30] fusa_: that's why I picked one of the off-shoots (lubuntu, kubuntu, xubuntu, or edubuntu). They don't change very much. [17:31] PatrickDickey: thanks, i will check that out. [17:31] fusa_, what are you talking about. do it at any speed you want [17:32] partounian: you could go into your ~/.wine directory, and remove any traces of Netflix from there as well. Then try to reinstall it. Or if it's the only thing you have in wine, I'd say remove your .wine directory altogether, and then try to reinstall Netflix (also remove the .netflix-desktop directory). [17:33] PatrickDickey: thanks. i noticed something in those links. is it possible that arch and ubuntu use different drivers, and i need to set the option to a different driver? [17:34] neothecat: That's possible. I'm not that familiar with how EHCI or Arch works, to be honest (and yes, I know Arch is a distro. ;-) ) [17:35] test [17:35] passed [17:35] success :P [17:35] bazhang: thanks anyway, I ended in this channel only because it was set by default and the box said "enter search phrase" or something like that... [17:36] neothecat: drivers are the kernel's job [17:36] fusa, you can type /msg ubottu notunity and it should Private Message the information to you. If that's what you're going to copy/paste. [17:38] auronandace: If you haven't read what neothecat is having an issue with, the command line for Grub that he uses works with arch but not ubuntu (to disable the over-current check on his USB ports). [17:40] I am using 12.04 and have virtualbox installed. When I try to boot a virtual machine on an ISO, it fails saying kernel panic, attempteed to kill init. (the VM says that). Is virtualbox support broken in 12.04 64 bit? [17:40] bazhang: You might be able to point me in the right direction. I need to find out who to contact about updating a link that ubottu gives out. [17:41] tdn: have you tried a reinstall to confirm it isn't just an install error? [17:41] PatrickDickey, which one [17:41] PashaPasta, yes, actually I have. Reinstalled virtualbox that is. [17:41] The one for the Ubuntu manual. We'd like to add something about getting involved with the project, if that's possible. [17:41] PatrickDickey: You can join #ubuntu-ops and fire the following: !factoid is New text for "factoid" [17:41] tdn: but have you tried reinstalling the VM as well? [17:41] PatrickDickey: That'll submit an edit request [17:42] PatrickDickey: They'll have to aprove it, of course [17:42] PashaPasta, this is a new VM. Just created it. [17:42] hi, what is the name of the sound app in indicator panel in ubuntu?? [17:42] PashaPasta, host system is fully up to date. [17:42] theadmin: Thank you very much. :) [17:42] ok [17:42] testing12345: indicator-sound [17:42] dmesg on the host system says: [28330.567064] EXT4-fs (dm-3): Unaligned AIO/DIO on inode 12320775 by VirtualBox; performance will be poor. [17:43] I do not know if this is related. [17:43] It shouldnt be. [17:43] thanks trism [17:44] trism = prism ? [17:44] NSA!

Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! [17:45] sry [17:46] tdn: it looks like a misaligned virtual drive is causing the issue [17:46] tdn: in virtualbox, be sure to enable "Use host I/O cache" and try again [17:46] reference: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1750417&page=2 [17:47] I'm trying to use avconv to convert a .wav file to an MP3, but it ends up having a "variable bitrate", whatever that's supposed to mean, the application I'm trying to use the resulting file with is complaining about this fact. I know I could just use Audacity to convert it to a file with a fixed bitrate, but that's hardly scriptable. Is there an option for avconv? [17:47] PashaPasta, I tried both with and without "Use host IO cache". I still get the kernel panic. [17:47] ouch [17:47] I got a usb audio adapter which I want to use to listen music. I connect it and ubuntu recognizes it but when I go to sound settings in output I see "digital output, analog output, speakers" both digital and analog output are with builtin, speakers are with the usb. how can I put usb in digital output? [17:47] PashaPasta, please note that it is the guest VM that panics. Not the hsot system. [17:47] if I want the grub menu to be displayed on boot up, I know that i have to lets say set the value of GRUB_TIMEOUT=0 to 10 (10 sec), do I have to comment the line GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0 ? [17:47] theadmin: man avconv [17:47] right [17:47] PashaPasta, but the guest panics because of something on the host system for sure.

[17:48] I would suggest trying to make another VM with some other OS and seeing if the issue remains, use the exact same settings in use on the 12.04 VM [17:48] theadmin: seriously?? I pointed you to the application manual?? [17:48] tried installing 12.04 from usb stick. "failed to copy files from cd-rom" . why is this still broken? [17:48] if you still getan error, it is likely a vbox issue [17:48] it used to work when i did it with 10.04 [17:49] zero2XIII: Right. An overly long and confusing one, too, simply searching for "bitrate" seems to have no produced result -- hoped someone would know a quick answer [17:49] PashaPasta, OK it seems that the alignment warning is unreleated to the kernel panic problem. [17:50] PatrickDickey: ok, now i am more confused then ever. i went over to arch, and i got "ignore_OC unknown option". so now, i have no idea why it works in Arch, and not in Ubuntu.... [17:50] PashaPasta, here is screenshot of what happens when trying to boot a new VM on debian netinst iso: http://imgur.com/gXTyDh6 [17:51] Ari-Yang: As for your question, GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT basically gives you a timeout without displaying the menu, simply showing the string "Press Shift to open GRUB menu" or something along those lines [17:51] Ari-Yang: Don't need to set it if you don't want that [17:52] theadmin, so I then just have to set GRUB_TIMEOUT=0 to 10 to display grub menu for 10sec and I'm good to go? [17:52] bloke: Uh, Ubuntu installs perfectly from USB. Just dd it there, or use universal USB installer if on Windows [17:52] Ari-Yang: Yeah, need to update-grub tho [17:52] aye, thanks [17:53] is there a standard document for configuration of new usb audio devices? [17:54] a [17:55] theadmin: honestly, i'd consider using lame over avconv (if i still used MP3 for anything). good luck. [17:55] i have try to install a deb, but i get this message after http://pastebin.com/0UEJVYGN any ideas? [17:55] zykotick9: Eh, Audacity does the trick I guess [17:55] theadmin: lame is terminal based, thus scriptable. [17:56] Ah, it's a program. Huh. Thought it's just a lib [17:56] does anyone know [17:57] if have ati radeon 2100 onboard driver for linux ? [17:57] theadmin: while there is liblame, lame stands for? "Lame Ain't an MP3 Encoder" but of course... it is ;) [18:01] hi all. just went to boot my machine and it fails at mdm x server. so far tried renaming xorg.conf so it gets recreated, no help. what should i try next? no errors yet to search Google for.

[18:06] samholmes: ...That'd be a problem, since 11.04, the successor of 10.10, is no longer supported [18:07] samholmes: my strong suggestion = reinstall. that's a LOT of upgrades.

However why did you not include that in your instructions? [18:12] wilee-nilee: Eh... Sorry bout that [18:13] But /home isn't the only place where I have data [18:13] /apps is my main dir for my applications [18:13] this is a server [18:13] samholmes: ...Uh, but you'll have to reinstall them after an upgrade anyways, new libraries and stuff === rohit is now known as Guest79921 [18:14] theadmin, Were all trying to help, you do an awesome job there. ;) [18:14] samholmes: Considering /apps is not a place APT would ever install too since it's not even part of FHS...

[18:23] aft :D [18:23] what' recommended [18:24] Ari-Yang: "purge" also removes config files. I'm not sure what'd qualify as that for a kernel... [18:24] Ari-Yang: But if you don't plan on reinstalling this package, purge is definetly a better option [18:24] theadmin, actually I do, so I'll use -r [18:24] I'm reinstalling because I need to disable the wifi proprietary driver [18:24] ain't compatible with the kernel >_> [18:25] I'm looking through the log file, but don't see anything jump out at me that looks odd.

[18:27] do you think MDM has its own log file?

[19:26] reddeath68: uname -r [19:26] if knoppix can't detect an internal hdd, that pretty much means I'm having a physical hard drive failure? [19:26] i already had the drivers linked to me and uname -r gives me 3.8.0-23-generic [19:27] reddeath68: I dono then.... [19:27] reddeath68: based on the errors, you might have to add an include line at the top of the file [19:28] include line? [19:28] reddeath68: that being said, realtek might not have complete compatibility with linux 3.8.0 since I had to make changes when building drivers [19:28] reddeath68: C++ thing === launch is now known as Guest47713 [19:28] harrymoreno: i wouldnt say that unless the BIOS doesn't show the hard drive either and even at that point, it could just be a loose/disconnected cable.

[19:34] yes i do [19:36] reddeath68: At the top of the file, near the other #include's, add the following line (w/o quotes): "#include " [19:36] reddeath68: apparently, someone had a similar problem in 2011 with rtl8192 drivers [19:38] I have two packages that I install from source (git and tmux), because they're more current from source, than in the repos. However, I want to install a git-cola and that depends on the repo version of git. Is there any way to keep that from being installed, so I can use git-cola with my source-installed version? [19:39] i added the line anything else? [19:39] reddeath68: that might be it. Try building it.

That's an instruction to the compiler to include variables and methods in that file [19:43] o im used to java where // means comment out... [19:44] reddeath68: //is a comment in Java, C, and C++. #is a comment in bash and many linux config files. :) [19:44] there is // bedore the #inlcude [19:44] before* [19:49] I installed a usb audio device. supposedly it should have better sound than with the audio device that comes with the notebook, but the sound quality is lower. what could be the problem? [19:49] reddeath68: It's probably an include that they don't need anymore. But they probably left it in there just in case. Or they left it in there for older kernels, which might still have the file. [19:53] o i c so is there anyway to get this working? [19:54] reddeath68: working on it [19:54] stephenh: not that i'm aware of, but that would be really cool! if you happen to find a way, if you can - let me know. good luck. [19:54] ok let me know im mulling over the code but wont help much i dont know c or c++ still trying to find a good way to learn them.... [19:56] nm people, apparently I had managed to accidentally disable the touchpad with a Fn key combination... [19:56] zykotick9: it would be :) looks like i'm redoing the preseed file i lost [19:56] i was gonna suggest that delac but i thought u meant u checked that with making sure it was on.... [19:57] reddeath68: :) I didn't even know I had that kind of Fn key on this thing. [19:59] saircot895 would the line #if (LINUX_VERSION_CODE >= KERNEL_VERSION(2,6,32)) #include mean anything [19:59] delac: pretty standard, FYI [19:59] QUIT [19:59] of grub, when I have GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash " the parameter is placed after 'splash'. lets say if I have two parameters [19:59] do I put a colon? [20:00] or just have it all right after each other? [20:00] reisio: yeah, I gues it is. [20:00] Ari-Yang, just a space, AFAIK [20:01] okay, I'll do some research just in case [20:01] Ari-Yang, see the !nomodeset factoid > GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash nomodeset" [20:02] ive got install python 2.7 and python 3.2 in my system (ubuntu 12.04) [20:02] when i download a package it installs it automatically on python 2.7 and i cant find it on python 3 [20:03] how do i uninstall python 2.7 [20:03] ? [20:03] Giwrgaras, do not uninstall 2.7, you need them both [20:03] !nomodeset [20:03] 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 [20:03] how do i make it work in python 3 also? [20:03] all my packages go to 2.7 === Wug[Hyperspace] is now known as Wug [20:04] Giwrgaras, if that .py script is not written for 3.2, it will fallback to 2.7, there are slight diff between the two languages === Wug is now known as Wug[Hyperspace] [20:04] yes i know but i downloaded the latest version for python 3.2 [20:04] stephenh: fyi, so far (it might happen, but i doubt it) my re-telling of the pre-seed-recorder, has gone unanswered in #debian as well ;) i've NEVER heard of it - but again, i think it's a fantasic idea (first time i've heards of a RH feature, i'm actually envious of). good luck (probably recreated the preseed manually). [20:05] reddeath68: That just adds an include file for consideration [20:05] reddeath68: basically imports more variables and methods which, unfortunately doesn't have what we need [20:06] Giwrgaras, you can force to run a scriupt like this >> " python2.7 /path/to/script" or "python3.2 /path/to/script" [20:06] hm, i'd like to use the power manager that comes with ubuntu's unity in another window manager (the system tray application that shows a battery). any hint how to get there or what that command is called? thx. [20:07] and where do i force this run? [20:07] reddeath68: based on the headers (.h file), we're looking for the class tasklet_struct, so I ran a command to look for any mention of that class in /usr/include, the place where all methods and variables and classes (for the -dev packages) are listed, and it turned up nothing [20:07] reddeath68: based on the looks of it, this driver might not be compilable [20:07] so in essence we are missing a file? [20:08] Giwrgaras, see this answer #4 > http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1889054&s=e6993039fed1c48ad8264165bcdd1904&p=11504364#post11504364 or join #python [20:08] o not compatile joy might have to scrap and get new wifi card or go back to 12.10 [20:08] avahi-daemon is being shut off, because of a unicast ntdomain.local DNS tld [20:09] reddeath68: more specifically, a class that existed in the past that may or may not exist now [20:09] i configured /etc/nsswitch.conf with dns priority over mdns4_minimal, etc. [20:09] but syslog is showing avahi-daemon is still being shut off [20:09] would it be possible to revert back to 12.10?

[20:10] reddeath68: no, and if you could, you'd still need to upgrade to 14.04 before january [20:10] question: how can disable this avahi-shutoff? [20:10] reddeath68: 13.10* [20:10] reddeath68: correction: based on http://lxr.free-electrons.com/ident?v=3.8;i=tasklet_struct, it should exist [20:10] xfavor [20:11] wow its referenced alot [20:11] *trying an improved grep [20:11] sudo grep -R "Avahi detected that your currently configured local" / [20:12] reddeath68: in the file include/rtl871x_recv.h, add the line #include [20:12] reddeath68: that should get you past that error [20:13] reddeath68: scratch that [20:14] lol im multitasking so i didnt even get a chance to try lol [20:15] is it possible to got from 13.04 back to 12.10? [20:15] reddeath68: downgrade is not supported. and i know no example where it was succesfully [20:16] short of full reinstall.... [20:18] how can i see all the programs that i have installed with a terminal command on ubuntu? [20:18] for example i discovered that when i press the name of a program in the terminal it executes it [20:19] guys how do i change the theme of my windows (such as ambience etc) [20:19] Hello [20:19] Hello. Did Ubuntu 13.04 change something with WIFI? [20:20] Because everytime I go upstairs, I can't connect to my hotspot while I could on ubuntu 12.04 [20:21] DylanCI im actually here beczause my wifi stopped working when i upgraded.... [20:21] Downstairs I have WIFI, but upstairs not. Sucks that you don't have WIFI at all reddeath68 [20:21] reddeath68: If you plug in the rtl8188 USB, does it not work? [20:21] Hi, I noticed gdb tried to run a ptrace of some pid at about the same time I ran apt-get, could this be a process trying to jump sudo? [20:21] I'm a bit paranoid :P [20:21] reddeath68: supposedly, there is firmware included for the rtl8188 [20:22] Does anyone here know how to use gEdit (the word processor program) ? [20:22] reddeath68, Your wifi is a 3rd party usb, not really a valid my wifi stopped working on upgrades drivers many times need reloading. [20:23] Anyone? [20:25] hello everyone [20:25] Did ubuntu 13.04 change something about WIFI? Because everytime I go upstairs, I can't connect to my hotspot while I could on ubuntu 12.04 [20:26] jamesarnett: hi [20:26] pizzadude, Never heard of a process trying to jump sudo. [20:26] DylanCl: maybe the kernel drivers changed. you get a new kernel when upgradung [20:26] And what can I do about that? [20:26] yeah but why would gdb run at the exact same time i ran sudo? [20:26] Change owner:group to the local account from root <- i dont know what to change it [20:27] i read about it online that someone could exploit ptrace to take control of sudo [20:27] get information about the kernel, driver, wifi hardware. take a look at the logs what happening there [20:27] pizzadude, Who knows, you have very little to worry about if you have good passwords and use the repos, [20:27] zipy: "chown" is the terminal command for that [20:28] k1l: how do I do that? [20:28] yes but to what do i have to change that [20:29] reddeath68: in include/rtl871x_recv.h, add the line #include [20:29] reddeath68: that will get you past that error, but there is still the implicit function error [20:29] zipy: chown user:group /path/to/file [20:29] sudo chown owner:group ~/.config/lxpanel/Lubuntu/panels/panel <-- Change owner:group to the local account from root [20:29] i dont know what to change it :( [20:30] reddeath68: do the same in include/drv_types.h [20:30] zipy: just set your username into user:group [20:30] ok thanks wilee-nile [20:30] * wilee-nilee [20:30] ah ok thx [20:31] i used owner:zipy all the time and dint work [20:31] . [20:32] zipy_: try zipy:zipy [20:32] I'm trying to install ubuntu on my laptop with EUFI. So i'm create an entry for the usb disk... which file on the disk do I want to point to? [20:33] Spec, i just used zipy, it worked :D [20:34] RustyShackleford: you've lost me? File on what disk? [20:34] if you mean what I think you mean, just just boot from usb [20:35] Spec-Chum, my EUFI menu wants you to specify a file [20:35] RustyShackleford, If needed here is a help thread for uefi. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2147295 [20:35] a file on the startup disk, that is [20:36] RustyShackleford: ah, sorry, not sure about EUFI [20:37] hello, i am having a trouble install the grub boot with my installation of 12.10 desktop [20:38] I have two packages that I install from source (git and tmux), because they're more current from source, than in the repos. However, I want to install a git-cola and that depends on the repo version of git. Is there any way to keep that from being installed, so I can use git-cola with my source-installed version? [20:38] Slick, What have you tried? [20:39] well I'm stumped. [20:39] I can get it to boot with UEFI off, but then windows won't boot [20:39] also, scrolling did not work for my touchpad on the live usb disk. [20:39] hi everybody [20:39] RustyShackleford, Best help is at the UF, look at that link, and start a thread there if needed. [20:39] I wonder if I could work around that after installing [20:40] i havent tried much, im still pretty new to linux. I installed this version once before with no problems then i did a motherboard RAID and at the end of installation i get a fatal error that says grub cant instal, i pick a hard drive or usb to point to and install but it doesnt work [20:40] hi dro_ [20:40] wilee-nilee, yeah thanks for the link. I'm looking through it now [20:40] If I install a package, and it fails, and then later on I want to install another package - APT tries to finish the installation of the previous one. How do I stop that from happening? [20:41] Hi have a little problem, I googled it, but I cannot find good answers. Ubuntu 13.04 > Cinnamon > How to set new volume level as default ? [20:43] dro_: you will find more supporters for cinnamon in the mint support. [20:43] hey all i'm on 13.04 are there packages for nvidia drivers >=319.23 driver release? [20:44] @k1l so you tell me that the default volume level is set in cinnamon ? [20:44] dro_, Not many use it in ubuntu, or rather we rarely see it here, it is common in mint [20:45] dro_: i guess its desktop specific. [20:45] ok, thanks you very much, thanks for your time guys [20:45] typical ubuntu. CRASHED [20:45] dro_: I'm sure the way it's _supposed_ to work is: [20:45] dro_: log out and save your session, done [20:46] lol [20:46] i'll try [20:46] brb === Giorgaras is now known as giwrgaras === giwrgaras is now known as Giwrgaras [20:47] there [20:47] so... what do you mean by "Save the session" ? [20:47] * Spec-Chum lives dangerously and puts 3.9.7 kernel on Ubuntu [20:48] don't worry I won;t ask for "support" here lol [20:48] I just logged out with volume at 50%, and after logon, volume is again set to 100% xD [20:48] reddeath68: the implicit function error means that it's calling a method, but it can't find it. [20:48] but if this depend of cinnamon, then i'll ask in another place :) [20:49] reddeath68: unfortunately, the last kernel version that contained the daemonize() method was in 3.7, so this will *not* compile in Raring (Raring is 3.8 and above) [20:49] dro_: im quite sure on unity it keeps to the soundlevel that was used last [20:49] here is the error i get "Executing 'grub-install/dev/sda' failed This is a fatal error" [20:49] I will try now on unity, to check where the problem come from [20:49] thanks again, see you :) [20:50] Did ubuntu 13.04 change something about WIFI? Because everytime I go upstairs, I can't connect to my hotspot while I could on ubuntu 12.04 [20:51] DylanCl, Nothing changed as far as wifi signal strength.

There is no unity on this system, it is gnome version [21:37] !nounity [21:37] mrtAkdeniz, You installed the gnome-shell build? [21:37] Ubuntu 11.10 and higher use GNOME 3 with the !unity shell by default. To use GNOME Shell instead, from 12.10 an up install the "ubuntu-gnome-desktop" package. From 11.04 to 12.04, 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. Using Natty? See !classic === Aww is now known as EvilAww [21:38] try gnome-tweak-tool for gnome3 [21:38] wilee-nilee, Yes, default dm is gnome [21:38] OerHeks, There is no option about that on gnome-tweak-tool [21:39] mrtAkdeniz, I run the gnome-shell, I have not seen a specific panel color changer, however there are themes and a ton of extensions. [21:40] wilee-nilee, Oh bro, where can I found gnome themes? Is there a site or do I have to google it? [21:41] mrtAkdeniz, gnome-tweak-tool is in the repos it is called advanced in the menu. Not sure with themes I don't bother with them [21:43] mrtAkdeniz, I found this as far as themes be sure you know the shell version, 3.6 is stock for 13.04 I believe. http://gnome-look.org/?xcontentmode=191 === melancht1on is now known as melanchthon [21:44] here is the extensions https://extensions.gnome.org/ [21:44] wilee-nilee, Thanks a lot :) [21:45] hry [21:45] hey [21:45] mrtAkdeniz, No problem, I think some have not investigated the shell it has a lot of tweaks.

[22:02] but i dont have synaptic installed and cant installed because it wont let me install anything al all [22:02] lauratika, Something with a kernel that did not finish it looks like.

[22:08] mrtAkdeniz, Not sure to be honest I have used a gnome-shell only build, I just noticed this. I doubt anyone here knows definitively. I would just run sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop and copy and paste all the install packages from the terminal to a gedit and save it in case you need to remove it.

[22:10] georgi: its repsonsible for integrating social connections on the unity desktop... you can read the man page, or serach for mor infor online.. or look as the source [22:10] Where do I change, so the system starts already logged in with the X up ?

Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades [22:11] lauratika, No, if I had a definitive idea how to fix that I would help, it is a kernel thing, I'm not into bricking others setups to feed my needs to help. ;) [22:11] neodemi: its not supported any longer [22:11] neodemi: that is because natty is out of support because its too old [22:11] shame, the newer versions dont work on this machine [22:12] georgi: this is a good start http://packages.ubuntu.com/raring/friends-dispatcher [22:12] lauratika, Fixable thing though you just need the right help.

[22:17] I've tried using the open-source ones, but no beans on that...I'll try again, don't think I've tried it yet on 13.04 [22:18] Ari-Yang: typically, the open ones dont do dual head well, ad might be the lesser of the eviels.. [22:19] Dose anybody here know how i can get Ubuntu 12.4LTS to write a WIn7 ISO file to a USB flash Disk [22:19] im trying to boot into ubuntu from bootloader but when I boot into it ,it shuts off and restarts [22:19] wilee-nilee: yes [22:19] @austin - have you tried k3b? [22:19] xjkx, Cool. [22:19] k3b? (im neew to ubuntu) [22:19] Open up the software center and search for k3b [22:20] wilee-nilee: I crashed, did you say how to do it lol [22:20] Ari-Yang: *any* burner, such as brasero will do that.. thats how i bunred my windows8 dev [22:20] gunetbootin can handle windows stuff [22:20] Austin: ^^ [22:20] -g [22:20] @fatalpriapism now it wont detect my flashdrive [22:21] Neither k3b not brasero can burn onto USB devices. [22:21] Austin, Yes you can format the stick to ntfs and put a bootflag on it in gparted, then use the archive manager with a right click on the iso to extract it to the usb. [22:21] Use unetbootin. [22:21] @wilee-nilee already tried that it is a UDF formatt [22:21] has worked the many times I have done it. [22:21] Austin, UDF? [22:22] yeah, i didnt see the USB.. unetbootin. assuming the windows iso allows USB boot.. and you'll have to ask in a windows support channel [22:22] it is a ISO format [22:22] hi [22:23] i'm a newbie to ubuntu and am trying to run sublime text 2 on ubuntu [22:23] Austin, You use the archive manager to unlock all the files to extract. [22:23] tritech: what task are you trying to do? [22:23] @fatalpripism im trying to write it to a USB not a DVD [22:23] Austin, Windows has a usb loader but has to be run in windows. [22:24] In settings -> manage uers...I have autologin grayed out, why [22:24] i get gtk cannot display error when i try to start sublime text [22:24] Austin: the creators os the iso may not provide/allow usb booting [22:24] what is sublime? [22:24] it's an editor [22:24] i have done it before in Windows but my HDD crashed and im trying to install winodws agian [22:24] tritech: what taslk are you trying to use that for? maybe a volunteer can suggest a supported application that will work better [22:24] Austin if you're doing it from Ubuntu, you can use netbootin (also can use this from Windows). it creates the usb and puts it's own version of Grub on. [22:25] Austin, Well I told you how my work is done. [22:25] i'm trying to use sublime to edit files on a ubuntu server [22:25] tritech: ij [22:25] ok [22:25] tritech: edit text files? [22:25] holstein yes [22:25] tritech: i would suggest using a supported/default text editor.. not sublime [22:25] tritech: personally I would just use nano or vi for that, but what ever [22:25] @PatrickDickey i cant get the netbootin installer or what it is to open [22:25] Austin, are you trying to create a bootable Windows USB drive? [22:25] tritech: otherwise, ask sumblime for support [22:25] yes [22:26] to install onto my HDD [22:26] Austin: unetbootin - it is totally free, and you can just install it. [22:26] tritech: On a server? Via ssh? [22:26] !unetbootin [22:26] For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent [22:26] Austin, Microsoft has bootable USB versions for Windows 7, and possibly 8. You'll have to go to their site to find them though. [22:26] tritech: I am guessing sublime has other features that interests you? Not just the ones that involve editing text? [22:26] unetbootin never worked on w7 here [22:26] i'm running ubuntu on a vm [22:26] tritech: gedit is a GUI text editor [22:27] Austin: become a MS Partner, you get access to all sorts of ISOs and other goodies [22:27] tritech: Ubuntu server doesn't have a graphical environment by default, are you running one on yours? [22:27] pici no [22:27] tritech: Then sublime text will not work. [22:27] Austin, windows 7 or 8? [22:28] can't i send the display to my windows machine [22:28] tritech: nano is a non GUI editor that is a great place to start [22:28] im running ubuntu on a vm on my windows machine [22:28] tritech: there is no display to send [22:28] tritech: Are you running an x server in Windows? [22:28] Of course there is. [22:28] tritech: you could use putty from windows to connect via ssh and run nano [22:29] Austin, I have found this app to work fine as well. http://www.pendrivelinux.com/multiboot-create-a-multiboot-usb-from-linux/ [22:29] Start an ssh session with X forwarding enabled, start a windows based X server, start your graphical application. [22:29] bekks: i dont think there is one installed [22:29] or, thats the way i read it... [22:29] holstein: He has to install one before, of course. [22:29] aye [22:30] no running ubuntu vm via vagrant using putty client [22:32] tritech: You'll need to install an X server in Windows before you can run any graphical apps. Just a heads up though, xforwarding is slow, it may be better to just run a cli editor. [22:33] im trying to boot into ubuntu from bootloader but when I boot into it ,it shuts off and restarts [22:34] Hello! I want to intercept halt and suspend actions. [22:34] I know the pm-suspend script. But which is the halt script? [22:35] halt? shutdown -h now? [22:35] There is just a program for this task?

[22:38] h4b0: ask your question, and someone may be able to help you out. [22:38] I don't get it...drivers are installed...the AMD catalyst control center is saying unknown adapter though...wtf? [22:39] I'm dual booting Windows and Ubuntu and would like to change the order in which the options show up. Ubuntu is currently at the top and Windows at the bottom [22:39] is this possible or should i just not bother? [22:39] or... is it really easy? :D [22:40] i have a simple code what worked but now i cant grab key from other window... [22:40] h4b0, Stae your issues for help.

Just a heads up is all. ;) [22:45] does not mean you will get no help, just may take awhile, [22:46] is there anyway to take a screen cap of the grub/boot menu screen? [22:47] What's the number indicator that layer over unity icons called? [22:47] totally-new-user, There is an app I forget the name or you can modify grub. === kevin is now known as Guest24822 [22:47] thanks tannji but that seemed more like for mint rather than ubuntu. [22:48] Hello. I am triing to decide witch SNMP manager to use on a small office netowrk with about 10 PCs and 2 servers. Could anyone suggest something? [22:48] can anyone elaborate more on the notes before step 4 on this page? http://www.computerandyou.net/2011/08/how-to-change-the-default-boot-order-in-grub-2-in-ubuntu-10-04-10-10-and-11-04/ [22:48] the part where it talks about "change GRUB_DEFAULT=0 to GRUB_DEFAULT=2>4." [22:48] do you actually type in "2>4" ? [22:48] totally-new-user, this has the ppa link for the gui app. http://askubuntu.com/questions/100232/how-do-i-change-the-grub-boot-order [22:50] hmm mb other question [22:50] totally-new-user, lol, sorry, wrong link... tho it would still work, mostly. you could also install Grub Customizer [22:50] anyone know how to make a own shortcuts? [22:51] totally-new-user, No ) is sda1 and they gi up numerically from there. [22:51] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Custom_Menu_Entries [22:51] totally-new-user, Sorry No 0 is sda1 and they gi up numerically from there [22:52] oh ok [22:52] got it the Grub customizer is being installed. hmm [22:53] here are some more outlandish questions [22:53] can you enable "ctrl+c" and "ctrl+v" for the terminal? [22:54] also you know how you can type "define word" into google and get the defenition, has anyone made something that'd make that possible for terminal? [22:54] lol [22:54] *definition [22:55] Anyone here using Smuxi for IRC? [22:55] rantic_: try #polls [22:56] oh wow Grub customiser is EVERYTHING i was looking for this kicks ass! [22:56] *customizer [22:57] thanks wilee-nilee still not uused to installing and running stuff via terminal... [22:57] totally-new-user: as for enabling ctrl-v and ctrl-c, it might depend on your terminal application. But, I'd venture no. [22:57] What's the number indicator that layer over unity icons called? [22:57] totally-new-user, in linux you can usually highlight text, which automatically copies it to clipboard, then use mouse-button 3 to paste, which should be your whell button or middle-mouse [22:57] totally-new-user, It can be confusing. ;) [22:58] * PatrickDickey always uses right click and select paste to paste in LXTerminal... [22:58] adie: just "count" as far as I can see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Unity/LauncherAPI [22:59] if you set boot timeout to zero what happens? [22:59] it instantly boots to first enrty always? [22:59] *entry god i can't type today [23:00] thank you trism [23:01] totally-new-user, are you dualbooting with windows? [23:02] tannji: yup [23:02] totally-new-user, I believe you would want to set boot timeout to "2" which would be instant but allow you to hit F-8 to access boot menu [23:02] lol just set my boot menu background to Cloud standing infront of the Shinra building! the FF7 cover [23:03] lol [23:03] tannji: i see, thanks [23:03] = ) [23:03] so awesome: http://www.enixorigin.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/Cg_cloud.jpg [23:04] lol, its all relative = ) [23:04] mb now i will be have luck :D [23:04] anyone know good x11 ? [23:06] so when it says "Ubuntu, with Linux 3.2.0-48-generic" [23:06] "Linux 3.2.0-48-generic" = the kernel version? [23:06] Yup [23:06] how often does that get updated? [23:07] and does the whole 'generic' thing vary a lot from user to user? [23:08] so im having a bit of a problem.. After trying to run a game, ubuntu crashed to a tty session and ever since then I cant start lightdm or kdm, the tty session works perfectly fine but no gui will work [23:08] replaceits: backup, re-install? [23:09] graingert , i was hoping it wouldnt have to come to that ahah [23:10] replaceits: paraphrasing "After running some random code... my ubuntu doesn't work" [23:10] was this game in the ubuntu repo? [23:10] How do you setup a custom resolution in Lubuntu? [23:10] darknyan: xrandr? [23:11] Heya hiya. [23:11] I could never get the parameters right. [23:11] darknyan: you might want to try arandr for a gui frontend [23:11] graingert, it was minecraft (from their website, never heard of any problems with it) *shrugs* [23:12] replaceits: that's probably not it's fault [23:12] sweet, i'm all set. thanks a bunch guys [23:12] later [23:12] replaceits: as it's not exactly running anything as root [23:12] replaceits: so likely unrelated, or _REALLY_ nasty :p [23:12] what guide did you follow, replaceits ? [23:13] replaceits: unless you were like sudo java -jar minecraft.jar #yolo [23:13] i am afraid they do suggest that, graingert [23:13] OerHeks: whut? [23:14] * as root [23:14] whuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu [23:14] why? [23:14] graingert, it was litteraly as soon as i logged in lol and who runs a game as root? ahah [23:14] *to the game [23:14] hi Programmer_ [23:14] lets see the manual he followed first [23:14] replaceits: aparantly you're meant to [23:14] I just lost the game :( [23:15] i need help with x11 :D xgrabkey function :d [23:16] DerHeks, what do you mean manual? All you have to do is run with java yes? lol [23:16] hi === rosco_y is now known as rosco_away [23:17] Heya hiya, Master P. [23:17] replaceits, So you did not install oracle java ? [23:17] DerHeks, i did, like the site says ;p [23:18] What site? [23:18] such less info is boring.. [23:18] DerHeks, I had uninstalled the free version and installed Oracles a while back anyways so i could get some android stuff running, and minecraft.net? === rosco_away is now known as rosco_y [23:20] I can't su, is the superuser password different than the first account? [23:20] darknyan, use sudo -i ubuntu doesnt have a su pass [23:21] That solved alot thanks. [23:23] replaceits, where does it say you need to use sudo to run minecraft? [23:24] tgm4883, i never said it did, nor did i run it as such [23:24] hello everybody, someone knows how to merge subtitles to an mp4 video ? [23:24] replaceits, my bad, I meant that for OerHeks I suppose [23:24] tgm4883, He did not say that, but i still wonder what tutorial he used [23:25] . [23:25] replaceits, so my understanding of a quick skim of the backlog is you ran minecraft and now you can't lightdm crashes? [23:26] tgm488, ran the game, crashed to a tty screen, when i run lightdm (or kdm), it will bring me to the screen of it loading (the text one) but no gui ever starts up [23:27] replaceits, how are you trying to run lightdm? [23:27] I installed tightvncserver, ran it, set a password, and it runs on :1 so port is 5901. I run my android vnc viewer, put this port, it connects, but I only see my default ubuntu wallpaper...nothing else, cant do anything, just see the wallpaper, I go up and down the screen, zoom in and out, nothing. What am I doing wrong ? [23:27] tgm4883, i have ubuntu set to start up in text instead of quite splash so ive been using sudo lightdm start === Ice is now known as Guest44766 [23:27] Is there any way to change the palm detection / touchpad sensitivity settings in Ubuntu 13.04? [23:28] replaceits, seems like you should instead be starting the service 'sudo service lightdm start' [23:28] replaceits, what happens if you 'ctrl+alt+F1', login, then do 'sudo service lightdm restart'? [23:29] tgm4883, just tried it and same thing happend [23:30] try remove or rename(move) the ~/.minecraft folder ? [23:31] replaceits, it seems odd to me that a game could cause that problem considering A) starting lightdm needs nothing from the users home directory and B) running a game as a regular user means it doesn't have write access to anything outside the home directory [23:31] seems like you did something else in there [23:32] hello, when i connect my computer, to the tv, using hdmi, ubuntu turn me off the hdmi transmission, i have configured into battery settings, to dont do anything when it is charging === jono is now known as Guest13979 [23:32] removed every trace of the game diddnt do anything, and tgm4883 thats why im confused on what happend and how to fix it lol [23:32] replaceits, but as a test, you could also make it boot back up in graphical mode. Doing that would ensure it isn't looking for something in your home directory [23:33] replaceits, I still think you aren't telling us the full story. You might think you are, but from what you have told us seems like it should be impossible [23:33] * x-Qey #cvv2 new canal :D [23:34] cvv2 new kanal [23:36] tgm4883, not sure what i could be leaving out, im going to try booting with quite splash ill be right back. [23:37] * x-Qey new canal cvv2 [23:40] Is it normal to get a wall of code-y text at the end of Ubuntu 13.04 install? [23:40] it's not necessarily abnormal [23:40] as kongfuzi said: you don't have a problem until you have one [23:40] And quitesplash just brings me to a black screen === mneri1 is now known as mneri-mob [23:41] sounds like something went wrong with the xx install or maybe gfx drivers/Unity [23:41] X 8xx [23:41] *xx [23:42] or he rebooted and the GUI just turned off === adie is now known as AutumnSt === AutumnSt is now known as StAutumn === StAutumn is now known as Adie [23:43] reisio only saw And "quitesplash just brings me to a black screen" so donty know the history [23:44] replaceits: * [23:44] I have a remote server and i have to use gwt(java) on it. I need some remote desktop stuff. What do you recommend? [23:44] http://i.imgur.com/PnUurlF.jpg [23:44] mehmetb: Ubuntu comes with a VNC server, IIRC [23:45] :/ [23:45] gnome-session-quit show dialog to close session [23:46] which command show dialog to shutdown or suspend? [23:47] mehmetb you might want to do some x11 forwarding depending on what it is you need to run? [23:47] Hi everyone I'm a newbie on ubuntu is there anyone who can answer me a few questions? [23:47] AlexandreMBM: --power-off or --reboot arguments to gnome-session-quit [23:48] Meh I have a live cd at hand so ill just reinstall the system (got /home seperate so no loses really) thanks everyone ;p [23:48] NarcTix, im a newbie which one should i use? vnc or x11 forwarding? [23:50] mehmetb If your new vnc, for ease of use yes, security not sure. X11 forwarding if you know how to use ssh its just a case of adding the -Y flag to your ssh login [23:50] caodepalha: no, but there are many [23:50] trism, it is not that show suspend option [23:50] from menu [23:50] mehmetb so ssh notroot@server firefox would launch firefox on your server on your desktop [23:51] NarcTix, i've connected to server with a vnc client and i have termianl window again. what should it do? [23:51] ssh -Y notroot@server [23:51] AlexandreMBM: it shows suspend here, with --power-off (right next to lock), on 13.04 anyway [23:51] i downloaded ubuntu studio and tried to install it with wubit. it went well even though it was not ubuntu studio [23:51] mehmetb If you alrerqady have it setup and are used to that stick with it [23:51] it installed ubuntu 12.0.4 [23:52] trism, I am using 12.04.2 [23:53] mehmetb x11 forwarding can lag to its just I use SSH mostly with my servers [23:54] caodepalha, Wubi? [23:54] yes wubi [23:54] mehmetb using vnc you will need more binaries for the desktop so if you you dont have loads of spare space stick with ssh /X11 forwarding [23:54] NarcTix, thank you i will try [23:55] caodepalha, Ah, well it is not supported anymore, and is just a file in windows, originally a try out for a partitioned install, can be transfered to a partition if needed. [23:55] trism, it show a dialog to expire in 60 secs with cancel buttom only [23:55] it installed ubuntu but not ubuntu studio. at least i can try it out and have a look so its not a big problem. it automatically set up my laptop to dual boot. ubuntu is very slow..... [23:55] whats ubuntu studio? [23:56] caodepalha, Be careful with the dualboot term, and always identify it as a wubi when helped. [23:56] ubuntu-studio @ubboto [23:56] !ubuntu-studio [23:56] UbuntuStudio is a collection of packages for the artist who wishes to use Ubuntu as their Digital Audio Workstation. It contains all the best Audio/Visual components from the Ubuntu repositories. For more info and install instructions, join #ubuntustudio or see http://ubuntustudio.org [23:56] AlexandreMBM: don't know then, I have 12.04 here too, and in unity-2d I get suspend/restart/cancel/shutdown [23:57] ok but what about it? my laptop seems to work fine. ubuntu works very slow and that's the only downer for now [23:57] Hi, how can I output for example only mp3 and ogg files with the ls command ? [23:58] regex pattern doent seem to work [23:58] caodepa1ha Ubuntu, Linux running slow? Ive been a server admin for some years that does not hapen unless there is something wrong, describe slow? [23:58] its slow moving trough windows, opening firefox browser etc [23:58] installed with wubi [23:59] caodepa1ha Although Im not familiar with Unity and that could cause more load [23:59] caodepa1ha Have you installed your gfx drivers and what card you using? [23:59] trism, I am looking inhibitors for gnome sessions [23:59] please mind that i'm a total newbie for all linux matter, been doing research though
