[01:05] <marawan2> hello
[01:06] <marawan2> i would like to ask you guys about a list of suggested softwares from the ubuntu software center
[01:06] <marawan2> like one for the graphics, games, internet etc
[01:10] <rmobenchain> hello everyone.  I am trying to play a game on chess.com but everytime I try to, it tells me I need to install an iced tea java plugin.  when I did so via the terminal, nothing happens.  am on chrome using Ubuntu 13.04
[01:12] <marawan2> maybe the chess.com game in not designed for linux
[01:12] <Unit193> rmobenchain: You icedtea-7-plugin and restart chrome?
[01:12] <wilee-nilee> rmobenchain, Did you try firefox, do you have the restricted extras installed?
[01:12] <rmobenchain> I tried restarting chrome.  restricted extras?  uh, didn't know there were restricted extras
[01:13] <rmobenchain> and also had no luck on firefoxc
[01:13] <Unit193> !restricted
[01:14] <rmobenchain> would this be the correct terminal command?  sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[01:14] <rmobenchain> will try it :)
[01:15] <wilee-nilee> rmobenchain, Yeah if your running ubuntu
[01:15] <rmobenchain> wilee-niles: it seems to be working.  terminal is doing its thing
[01:15] <wilee-nilee> desktop if xubuntu or kubuntu you would sub them, however they are probably the same
[01:16] <wilee-nilee> rmobenchain, YOu can tab complete nicks so we see the answer in red as you do here.
[01:16] <rmobenchain> not sure what you just said... LOL
[01:17] <wilee-nilee> rmobenchain, type will then hit tab and it will complete my nick, I then am notified you are talking to me besides seeing my name.
[01:17] <rmobenchain> wilee-nilee: ahhh... that's cool
[01:17] <wilee-nilee> Doh wilee-nilee
[01:18] <rmobenchain> did I do it right?
[01:18] <wilee-nilee> I spelled it wrong first letters of nick then tab to complete
[01:18] <wilee-nilee> rmobenchain, that be it camper. ;)
[01:19] <wilee-nilee> sometimes the channel gets so busy and full of stuff it gets hard to follow is all.
[01:19] <rmobenchain> wilee-nilee: awesome.  I'm now on title page of user agreements, with an OK option at the bottom, how do I OK that stuff?
[01:19] <wilee-nilee> rmobenchain, In the terminal?
[01:21] <rmobenchain> wilee-nilee:  yes
[01:21] <wilee-nilee> rmobenchain, In the terminal I do it without thinking, the arrow keys to hit yes or y for yes I forget
[01:22] <wilee-nilee> rmobenchain, If needed you can do a screen shot and imagebin it if no one else remembers.
[01:22] <rmobenchain> wilee-nilee: nope, not working. if i coudl take a screenshot and show it, i would
[01:23] <krytarik> rmobenchain: Use Tab and Enter.
[01:23] <wilee-nilee> krytarik, THanks that sounds right, I have done it so many times I do it without thinking.
[01:24] <rmobenchain> krytarik: did it, and nothing
[01:25] <krytarik> rmobenchain: Is the terminal window even in focus? :P
[01:25] <rmobenchain> krytarik: but print screen worked!
[01:26] <krytarik> rmobenchain: And on the second screen, the Arrow keys as mentioned by wilee-nilee.
[01:26] <rmobenchain> krytarik: wilee-nilee  AHA!  the arrows worked!
[01:28] <wilee-nilee> rmobenchain, Cool, hope that gets you on the chessboard to rip it up. ;)
[01:35] <rmobenchain> wilee-nilee: getting ready to close and restart browser and will come back to let you know :)
[01:35] <wilee-nilee> cool
[01:38] <rmobenchain> it would seem that didn't work.  still have a gray screen
[01:43] <wilee-nilee> rmobenchain, I would contact them, to see the compatibility. THere is a firefox addon called user agent switcher that will have you masquerade as pther browsers life safari or ie and a bunch of others, I have had to use it in a college online situation.
[01:43] <wilee-nilee> just guessing here really
[01:44] <rmobenchain> wilee-nilee: i might try that.  i also have an IT buddy who might be able to help me out too.  thanks :)
[01:44] <wilee-nilee> rmobenchain, No problem.
[15:35] <raub> Bonding question:
[15:36] <raub> in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBonding eth0 and eth1 are defined
[15:36] <raub> but in http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1631796 they are specifically not. How come?
[20:36] <argosy_ops> Hey everyone :) I hope this is the right place to ask. Trying my own server installation of Ubuntu for the first time, but I can't seem to get it to boot after installation
[20:38] <argosy_ops> I had a RAID1 configured through EFI which would cause grub to exit the installation. Afterwards, I tried setting up a software RAID through the Ubuntu installer instead. Went through fine, but "no bootable device" afterwards
[20:40] <argosy_ops> Since there are no further meaningful error notices, I have no clue where to start searching for the issue
[20:53] <holstein> argosy_ops: i would just try installing, if its your first, time
[20:54] <holstein> argosy_ops: just do a normal install, no software raid
[20:54] <holstein> !uefi
[20:54] <holstein> ^ that could be an issue, if thats what you are referencing
[20:54] <holstein> argosy_ops: the server boots to a prompt anyways. FYI
[20:54] <holstein> argosy_ops: you also dont need ubuntu server to run an ubuntu server
[20:55] <argosy_ops> Well, it's a server machine that's supposed to have some redundancy, so doing without wouldn't be too much of a help :)
[20:55] <holstein> argosy_ops: if you are able to install one of the variants, you can just add ther server components you want to it
[20:55] <holstein> argosy_ops: supposed to?
[20:55] <holstein> argosy_ops: im only suggesting that you "get your feet wet"
[20:56] <holstein> "some redundancy" could be you manually backing things up occasionally
[20:56] <holstein> RAID is not the only redundancy. and arguably not the best, considering the situation
[20:56] <argosy_ops> That happens in addition. That server has been purchased with raid-optimized drives, so it would be a waste not to use it that way
[20:56] <argosy_ops> *reads the UEFI article*
[20:56] <holstein> argosy_ops: then, you'll just need to RTFM
[20:57] <holstein> argosy_ops: i have always found it a bit of a challenge.. and i dont use software RAID anyway
[20:57] <holstein> if you saved the reciepts, maybe just return the machine, or the drives, and get something more "normal"
[20:58] <holstein> either, take some of the bigger server company's ideas, and just use normal consumer drives
[20:58] <holstein> or, get something that comes ready to go, from somewhere like system76
[20:58] <holstein> you should need "raid optimized drives"
[20:58] <holstein> you just put the drives in a raid.. if you want a raid
[21:10] <argosy_ops> hmm that article is interesting, holstein. The tutorials I
[21:10] <argosy_ops> I've followed so far went ahead with only a raid and a swap partition, this article now mentions a mandatory EFI partition - which I did try before, but failed with "could not create efi filesystem".
[21:11] <holstein> argosy_ops: you have many variables
[21:11] <holstein> argosy_ops: are you new to linux?
[21:11] <holstein> what i suggest, which is not what you want to hear, but.. you should just insatll *something*... anything to get started
[21:11] <argosy_ops> I've used Ubuntu so far, but I've never installed it
[21:12] <holstein> you dont know if the machine supports ubuntu
[21:12] <holstein> you dont know if the hardware support is OK
[21:12] <holstein> i would install whatever you are used to.. main ubuntu as i said
[21:12] <holstein> that can be run on a raid.. on uefi
[21:12] <holstein> then, when you get that running, you can use it as the server
[21:12] <holstein> ubuntuserver *is* ubuntu
[21:12] <holstein> same repos
[21:13] <argosy_ops> In which way would the procedure or expectable result be different if it's the same down the line?
[21:13] <holstein> argosy_ops: well, for you, its going to look familiar
[21:14] <holstein> youll have a desktop you can use for a bit
[21:14] <holstein> you can always get rid of that later
[21:14] <holstein> !text
[21:15] <argosy_ops> I meant in terms of installation procedure, since I've got stuck before even being able to boot up any desktop :)
[21:15] <holstein> you'll be able to get to a desktop from the live CD> then, you'll hav an idea of the hardware support
[21:15] <argosy_ops> ah
[21:15] <holstein> you'll have GUI's for everything, to start with
[21:15] <argosy_ops> well that's worth a try
[21:18] <argosy_ops> I'll create a live usb tomorrow, thanks for the assistance :)
[21:20] <holstein> sure. good luck!
