whoeveram i missing soething that i don't know about00:05
ijwynhey all, I hope someone can help as I'm fairly new to ubuntu (though not to linux) and am having some odd issues with this machine00:07
ijwynso I'm running ubuntu and gnome on a dedicated server00:08
ijwynbeen running for about a year without ever crashing, so it's been fairly stable00:08
daftykinsbut...?00:08
reisiobut now he has to update it :p00:08
ijwynbut the last few days, it's been acting weird... first the task bar disappeared on me, than apps started crashing right and left00:08
reisio's'cause you updated it :p00:08
ijwynwell that's the thing, I can't even update as the update manager is one of the things that keeps crashing :-o00:09
reisioif you truly didn't alter the software, then it's a hardware issue00:09
digitalijwyn: what recent changes have you made? (if any)00:09
ijwynI take it this means it's a known issue?00:09
reisiobut that's unlikely00:09
ijwyni doubt it's a hardware issue as it's an OVH account, I don't have any control over that in any case00:09
daftykinsijwyn: run memtest00:10
ijwynand I haven't done any specific changes, aside from going with the updates up until the app started crashing00:10
reisioI also doubt it00:10
daftykinsoh OVH00:10
reisioyou probably updated something :p00:10
digitalijwyn: it could be a ram issue.  are you able to take the server offline for a while?00:10
ijwynyeah, I'm starting to think I might have updated something I shouldn't have00:10
=== Aww is now known as NotAww
reisio:p00:10
reisiogo through your log, revert the most recent updates00:11
ijwyndigital: I haven't tried it, but I did do a reboot, hoping it would fix the issue, and while it did fix the task bar all the apps still keep crashing, so the problem is still there00:11
ijwyndaftykins: hmm, i don't seem to have memtest installed00:11
daftykinsijwyn: it's a boot CD thing as opposed to an application, but since you say it's not really a physical PC it's not a relevant idea00:13
digitalijwyn: if you can cope with the server being down for a little while, run Memtest86 on it.  If that crashes you have a hardware fault somewhere.  If it reports a ram issue you've found the problem and if it says the ram is ok and doesn't crash, you know it's a software issue.00:13
ijwyndaftykins: oh ok00:13
daftykinsijwyn: can you run CLI update commands?00:13
ijwynyeah, I'm connected to the server two ways, one is through a graphical interface (nxclient) where stuff keeps crashing, the other is a shell connection which seems more stable00:14
ijwyndigital: yeah, I could probably do that as I'm not actively using the server yet, it's still in experimental stages, heh00:14
digitalhmmm, you might have upset gnome somehow.00:14
digitalijwyn: i just think it will give you the most conclusive results.00:15
ijwynit's quite possible, as I'm noticing KDE apps seem stable (Krusader, for instance, hasn't crashed once) whereas stuff like the update manager, firefox or other gnome-specific apps (even settings stuff) crash instantly, or almost instantly00:15
digitalHas anyone here installed CUDA in ubuntu?00:16
gboybrand new to ubuntu, just got it on a chromebook, having a hard time running Tor, getting a Vidalia error - I'm a real beginner00:16
ijwyndigital: I'll give it a shot... could you tell me how to run that Memtest86 thing though, if the server is down?00:17
digitalijwyn: Have a look here - http://www.memtest86.com/download.htm - I always use the linux/usb option.  just boot it up and the test is pretty straightforward.00:19
ubuntuHi00:20
ubuntuI need help00:20
=== ubuntu is now known as Guest82489
gboynot sure how this works00:20
ijwyneh, problem is usb would require physical access to the server, which i don't have... heck, come to think of it, i'm not even sure I could run this because though I can shut down the server, it's considered as a problem by OVH and they manually reset it, typically within a few minutes, hmm00:20
digitalaaah, they'd probably have to run memtest64 then00:21
wilee-nileeubuntu, stat your problem to the channel for help.00:22
ijwyni have no idea00:22
wilee-nileestate*00:23
Guest82489I've installed Ubuntu 13.04,  from Windows 7 using a USB - I had use Pen Drive Linux's USB Installer. I try and install it. & all I get is failling00:23
ijwynbtw, if it helps, I get a lot of core dumps everytime I try to start something from a terminal00:23
wilee-nileeGuest82489, Have you resized W7 from its disk management and left an unallocated space? Do you know the limitation in amount and types of partitions on a single HD?00:24
semitones_teaHello!00:24
semitones_teaJust for clarity's sake, if I put a bash script in /etc/init.d, that gets run on boot, right?00:24
wilee-nileeGuest82489, If you are trying a wubi install, it is not supported anymore.00:24
Guest82489wilee-nilee: No I didn't touch any of that00:25
Guest82489I'm running a it live, could I re-download it and burn it again, also how much space do I need on the USb00:26
wilee-nileeGuest82489, You want to resize windows with its partitioner and reboot so it runs the auto chkdsk, then install ubuntu in the unallocated space being aware of the limitations in types and amount of partitions.00:26
Guest82489I've lost windows00:26
wilee-nileeGuest82489, So what is your final goal here?00:27
Guest82489I don't know wilee00:27
ijwyndigital: so let's assume it's a software issue (which I'm guessing is the most likely scenario) how would I go about fixing it, or figuring out what exactly is causing this in the first place?00:27
Guest82489If I re-download it burn it to  a USB would that work00:28
wilee-nileeGuest82489, You can tab complete nicks so we are informed your talking to us if so. Figure out what you want and we can help. Is windows actually gone or just not booting?00:28
digitalijwyn: have a look through your log files as soon as something weird happens.  Hopefully there will be a clue in there.00:29
Guest82489Complete gone00:29
wilee-nileeGuest82489, It would be nice to see what is on the HD can you on the live cd take a screenshot of gparted and imagbin it.00:29
ijwyndigital: wow, I can't even do that... gedit crashes, and so does... vi, of all things!!! what the heck...00:30
philwongquestion, can you effectivley run ubuntu from a usb stick?00:30
Guest82489Oh right okay00:31
philwongor is it brutally slow00:31
ijwynit just says "segmentation fault" in the terminal00:31
ijwynthis is seriously messed up00:31
dlami got endless stream of this SSL error in /var/log/syslog,  anyone know what to check?    "SSL error might have been: error:140940E5:SSL routines:SSL3_READ_BYTES:ssl handshake failure"00:31
dlammaybe i gotta upgrade some package or something?00:31
wilee-nileephilwong, You can do a full install or a iso loaded with a persistent file, the persistent fills up though.00:31
ironhalikhmm, why is there no pygobject package in ubuntu 13.04? The site says there is a metpackage with this name, while apt can't see it00:31
graingertphilwong: it's fine but why would you want to00:31
philwongwell..00:32
reisioironhalik: ask apt-file00:32
graingertijwyn: sounds like something nasty00:32
graingertijwyn: re-install?00:32
philwongI just dont want my main OS effected00:32
philwongI only use 1 HD00:32
tgm4883ironhalik, are you looking for python-gobject ?00:32
ijwynI'm tempted to do that, but I fear I may lose a lot of data in the process, grrr00:32
digitalijwyn: try using nano from the terminal.00:32
wilee-nilee!who | Guest82489 if you do not use nicks we may miss your post.00:33
ubottuGuest82489 if you do not use nicks we may miss your post.: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :)00:33
ijwyndigital: nice one! that one seems to work00:33
wilee-nilee!tab00:33
ubottuYou can use your <tab> key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line.00:33
elisa87how can I mount an image without using sudo? I installed fuseiso but it is not recognized in the cluster with which I am working while it is recognized in my local machine. I am not authorized to use sudo for mount in the cluster and I was looking for a mount image which can work in user space00:33
Guest82489<nick>00:33
philwongif I install ubuntu on a windows hardrive side by side under a different partition, will windows get slower?00:33
ironhaliktgm4883: well, I'm looking for https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pygobject00:33
wilee-nileeGuest82489, type the first couple letters of who you are posting to then hit the tab to complete them.00:34
wilee-nileephilwong, no00:34
ijwyn*bangs head against wall*00:34
digitalijwyn: it's a simple yet powerful editor and if that doesn't run it's probably reinstall time.00:34
ijwynnow the terminal crashed and now nano segfaults too *rolls eyes*00:34
philwongok\00:34
tgm4883ironhalik, so then yes?00:34
Guest82489What you mean?00:35
graingertGuest82489: change your change your nick name /nick somenick00:35
ijwynok, so reinstall time I guess, bah00:35
tgm4883ironhalik, do you want the source package or the binary package?00:35
gordonjcpijwyn: wait what00:35
=== Guest82489 is now known as rlw980
graingertijwyn: use a live cd to do a backup00:35
rlw980there00:35
graingertrlw980: cool00:35
ironhaliktgm4883: yeah, but I don't have it under apt-get00:35
digitalijwyn: is that with no gui involved?00:35
philwongalso, if after I want to delete the ubuntu partition, will that section of partition automatically become part of windows again?00:35
gordonjcpijwyn: can you think of anything that might have caused this to happen?00:35
ijwyngraingert: can't, it's a remote server00:35
philwongor do I have to manually set that partition again00:35
graingertrlw980: now type grai[tab key]00:35
ironhaliktgm4883: thats what confuses me :>00:35
gordonjcpijwyn: also, why on *earth* are you running a GUI on a server?00:36
ijwyndigital: tried both, segfaults in both cases, with and without the gui00:36
rlw980graingert,00:36
tgm4883ironhalik, well without any insight into what you WANT to do, I can't point you in a direction00:36
graingertrlw980: congrat00:36
wilee-nileeGuest82489, If I am speaking to you I type enough of your nick "Guest82489" to get the taping of the tab key to complete your whole nick this adds a comma and highlights to you that someone is addressing you.00:36
graingertwilee-nilee: they are called rlw98000:36
tkingam trying to install thunderbird please how do i do it, i have the tar.bz2 file on my desktop please advise, its older version as i dont want the latest from the repository00:36
ijwyngordonjcp: I have no idea what caused it, except for me doing regular updates, I guess I updated something I shouldn't have, heh00:36
ijwynand I run a GUI because it's more practical and nxclient is there for that00:37
graingerttking: why do you want an old version?00:37
graingerttking: why do you want to compile from source?00:37
gordonjcpijwyn: stuff segfaulting randomly shouldn't really happen and tends to either indicate dying hardware or some sort of intrusion00:37
gordonjcpijwyn: <shrug> each to their own, but I don't see how it would be more practical00:37
graingertrlw980: please keep it to the channel00:37
tgm4883ironhalik, so let me ask, why do you want to install pygobject00:37
ironhaliktgm4883: I want to install this package :>00:38
rlw980How big does the USB has to be to make it bootable00:38
tkinggriangert, i dont need to compile it i guess, its because i want to grab emails with a plugin not compatible with the latest00:38
ijwynI guess I could take it up with technical support, but I'm somewhat doubtful they'll be any use here...00:38
ironhalik apt-cache show pygobject00:38
ironhalikN: Unable to locate package pygobject00:38
digitalijwyn: hmmm, that's not good. I can't think of anything you can try is the system is unstable.  Can you get someone to test the hardware?00:38
tgm4883ironhalik, so you just picked a random package name and thought "I think i'll try and install this"?00:38
graingerttking: why not install add-on compatibliy checker?00:38
blckpythnI think I made a mistake...00:38
tkinggraingert, how do i do that, never heard of it00:38
gordonjcpironhalik: so, install it then00:38
ironhalikgordonjcp: N: Unable to locate package pygobject00:39
ijwyndigital: yeah, I guess technical support could *at least* do that... hmm, come to think of it I might be able to do it myself through the OVH web interface, I'm gonna have to check that00:39
tgm4883ironhalik, correct, that package doesn't exist00:39
gordonjcpironhalik: well, that's not the name of the package00:39
graingerttking: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/add-on-compatibility-reporter/00:39
blckpythnSo, I installed cinnamon and was making changes and after an Alt+F2, r, enter, neither Cinnamon or Unity will load now.00:39
funkywho here used storm on demand?00:40
ironhaliktgm4883: gordonjcp yet I can download it as a deb from launchpad :>00:40
blckpythnIt loads when I log in as Guest but that's it.00:40
tgm4883ironhalik, where?00:40
tkingso how do i use it to install what i want?00:40
graingerttking: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/checkcompatibility/?src=search00:40
ironhaliktgm4883: sorry, tar.gz00:41
tgm4883ironhalik, exactly00:41
graingerttking: install that then install your add-on00:41
digitalijwyn: if you can get nano to behave for long enough, you could see if there is anything interesting in the syslog.  If this was my server though, I'd be looking for hardware faults at this stage.00:41
graingertdon't compile stuff from source it will break your debian when you run `sudo make install`00:41
tgm4883ironhalik, so as i asked before, why are you trying to install pyobject? You are obviously trying to install it because you need it for something else, so what else needs it?00:41
ijwyndigital: yeah, it does sound weird, I'll try another reboot it seems to be a bit more stable after it just starts up, so perhaps it'll give me enough time to look at those logs00:42
tgm4883ironhalik, unless you are actually trying to develop on pygobject, in which case, I can help you get the pygobject source00:42
gordonjcpijwyn: anything in dmesg/syslog?00:42
ironhaliktgm4883: Im fiddling with gtk development, just my first look00:43
gordonjcpijwyn: if it's a VPS, you must consider the possibility that the host machine is sick ;-)00:43
tgm4883ironhalik, in python?00:43
ironhaliktgm4883: from what I googled, pygobject is a metapackage that contains all packages needed for python gtk dev00:43
ironhaliktgm4883: yeah00:43
tgm4883ironhalik, python 2 or python 3?00:43
ironhalik300:43
tgm4883ironhalik, no, pygobject is not a metapackage00:43
tgm4883ironhalik, sec00:43
ijwyngordonjcp: haven't been able to read it yet, as all my text editors are segfaulting :-o trying to reboot and see if one will hold up long enough for me to read through that stuff00:43
tgm4883ironhalik, you likely want python3-gi00:44
tkinggraingert, The email address crawler 3 could not be installed with thunderbird 17.0700:44
graingerttking: did you install the compatability check disabler?00:44
gordonjcpijwyn: anything else segfaulting?  If normal binutils stuff is segfaulting that is starting to smell awfully like an intrusion00:44
tkinggraingert, yes00:44
tkingi did00:44
tkingand enabled it00:44
ironhaliktgm4883: yeah, reading through the package lists etc I figured that out. Just wasn't sure if Im not missing some modules by installing just python3-gi00:44
tgm4883ironhalik, if you want to do stuff with cairo as well, then you'll probably also want python3-gi-cairo00:44
blckpythnI have a feeling my issue is easy to solve, but I don't know where to begin00:45
tgm4883ironhalik, well, you're missing all the python 2 stuff for it. Which is fine if you're developing in python 300:45
graingerttking: in about:config?00:45
graingertextensions.checkCompatibility00:45
ironhaliktgm4883: currently, I installed python-gobject-dev which seems to contain all needed packages00:45
ijwyngordonjcp: well, almost everything is segfaulting, except it seems Krusader00:45
ijwynI'm not sure I see the connection with an intrusion though? how would that make stuff segfault?00:46
graingerttking: duuude, thunderbird 300:46
gordonjcpijwyn: because frequently stuff that is not germane to the operation of the rootkit is disrupted to make it harder to track down what's going on00:46
tkinggraingert, what? please can u explain00:46
graingerttking: also a nasty spammy add-on00:46
gordonjcpijwyn: what else is running on the server?00:46
ironhaliktgm4883: either way, I've got my first window drawn, so it seems to work. Thanks for the help00:46
tgm4883ironhalik, yw00:46
ScrivenerAnyone know why Firefox doesn't seem to use Unity integration on my desktop installation but not laptop installation? Same level of updates, same Ubuntu extensions in each (default installation in each), both on 13.04.00:47
ScrivenerLaptop looks far prettier due to Firefox not having its own bulky border in addition to the menus that appear in the Ubuntu panel.00:47
tkinggraingert, i want to remove emails from my inbox and add them to my address book that why i need the addon because its tidious to add emails 1 by 100:47
tkingit works with tunderbird 7.0.100:47
=== Chenzw|away is now known as Chenzw
graingerttking: emails can't ho into the address book00:48
graingerts/ho/go/00:48
tking?00:48
graingertdo you mean email addresses or emails00:48
graingertwhen you say emails00:48
ijwyngordonjcp: well, not much at this point, I'm mostly testing the server, and since I'd just rebooted it didn't have anything fancy, no apache or httpd yet00:48
tkinggraingert, email address, from sender00:48
gordonjcpijwyn: the fact that it's got a GUI and some remote control software on it makes me deeply suspicious00:49
tkinggraingert, it crawls the FROM field and save the emails00:49
ijwynnano's working again, yay00:49
blckpythnScrivener, I tried asking a question too, I think they're really caught up in this other guy's email issue.00:49
tgm4883ijwyn, this is a VPS? Who is it from?00:49
graingerthmm00:50
Scrivenerblckpythn, it's alright, I'll just repost my question a little later.00:50
digitalanyone had problems with ubuntu and nvidia drivers?00:50
gordonjcpijwyn: just looking at the nxclient stuff00:50
ijwyntgm4883: the server is with OVH00:50
graingerttking: bitch at the add-on developer00:50
ScrivenerAnd continue research on my own. Googling this issue yields something rather opposite though.00:50
ScrivenerThere was a widespread problem of Firefox's menus disappearing.00:50
ScrivenerBut in my case it has a border instead of integrating with Unity.00:51
blckpythnGoogle didn't find squat for mine00:51
ScrivenerAnd I don't know why.00:51
gordonjcpijwyn: that nxclient stuff looks sketchy as all hell00:51
tkinggraingert, how do i install the older version of thunderbird 17.0.1 i got the tar.bz2 file which i already extracted00:51
gordonjcpijwyn: wipe and reinstall00:51
graingerttking: why not install the debian package?00:52
tkingcant find it i guess00:52
tgm4883gordonjcp, are you sure they don't install that by default?00:53
gordonjcptgm4883: no, they definitely do not00:53
gordonjcptgm4883: I have a couple of OVH VPSes and a kimsufi box00:53
tgm4883ok00:53
ijwynis there a way to select everything in nano? not seeing an option for that in the man file...00:53
ijwynkimsufi is what I have to be more specific00:53
tkinggraingert, i cant find the deb file older version00:53
gordonjcpijwyn: it's either faulty or 0wned00:53
graingert:(00:54
gordonjcpijwyn: either way, now is a great time to contact tech support00:54
ijwynyeah, that's what I'm thinking too :-o00:54
gordonjcpijwyn: if you haven't got anything important on it, wipe and reinstall00:54
gordonjcpijwyn: if it comes back to life and works properly, then it wasn't faulty, it was just not under your control00:54
ijwynwell that's problem, I have quite a few things on there that I'd like to keep, and since I never managed to get a working ftp connection to the box, it's a bit of a problem :-o00:54
gordonjcpijwyn: and stay away from stuff like nxclient00:55
gordonjcpijwyn: spend a fiver, get an OVH VPS for a month?00:55
=== xubuntu is now known as Guest56151
gordonjcpijwyn: ftp is a great way to get broken into00:55
gordonjcpijwyn: use sftp00:55
ijwyngordonjcp: well, the thing is, I'd tried a number of other clients and nx was the only one that gave decent results (ie. a connection that wouldn't be amazingly slow)00:56
Marek76hello00:56
digitalI use ftp, but only with virtual users00:56
Marek76looking for channel about edc1700:56
gordonjcpijwyn: right, but don't use graphical stuff on servers00:56
Marek76ecu's00:56
gordonjcpijwyn: it makes no sense00:56
ijwyngordonjcp: what's the difference between a VPS and kimsufi?00:56
gordonjcpijwyn: a kimsufi is an actual physical box00:56
gordonjcpijwyn: a VPS is a virtual machine, hosted somewhere on a physical box00:56
ijwynand that's more secure?00:57
gordonjcpijwyn: well, security isn't the issue00:57
mrsudoerVPS, right?00:57
gordonjcpijwyn: it'll give you somewhere to stash your files while you unbork your kimsufi00:57
ijwynwell, if I got hacked, it would be, no? ;-)00:57
gordonjcpijwyn: if you don't pay them next month, then in another month or so they'll just wipe it00:57
tgm4883SSH is a good tool for managing servers00:57
philwongcan you run ubuntu from a external HD?00:58
gordonjcpijwyn: that's fine, because you'll have got your server fixed and copied everything back by then00:58
gordonjcpphilwong: yes, slowly00:58
gordonjcpphilwong: USB3 might be okay00:58
ijwynwell, actually, I also have a hubiC account, if that's what you mean (ie. cloud) but it's not working very well and have been having trouble connecting to it in ubuntu00:58
gordonjcpijwyn: oh don't even bother with that, just copy the stuff across from one machine to the other directly00:58
gordonjcpscp -r ~/stuff_i_want_to_keep mygroovynewvps.mydomain.mytld:00:59
ijwyn*blinks* how would I do that? I thought cloud was the way to do it00:59
gordonjcpbam00:59
gordonjcpdone00:59
ijwynaaaahhh00:59
ijwyndidn't know that, lol00:59
gordonjcpespecially since it won't even leave OVH most likely and go hooning across their gigabit ethernet00:59
ijwynwould I run that from OVH or my home box?00:59
gordonjcpijwyn: you'd run it from your OVH machine, pointing at your other OVH machine ;-)01:00
gordonjcpijwyn: and you really, really need to not be using a GUI for managing your server01:00
gordonjcpwhat exactly do you do, on the GUI, anyway?01:00
ijwynoh, I was thinking of sending it to my own machine, but that could work...01:00
gordonjcpnothing server-y has a GUI interface01:00
gordonjcpijwyn: if it's not a lot of stuff and you've got a fast connection you can copy it home01:00
ijwynwell, let's put it this way: I have no patience for cli, it tends to drive me nuts, gui's are just quicker (ie. more practical as I said before)01:01
gordonjcpscp -r myknackeredkimsufi.mydomain.mytld:/path/to/stuff .01:01
ijwynI have no memory, so remembering all the commands and options is a big pain for me01:01
gordonjcpijwyn: what do you actually use the GUI for though?01:01

gordonjcpthere is no way to manage anything on a Linux server from a GUI01:01
tgm4883ijwyn, probably worth mentioning that if the box is owned, that you shouldn't be backing up any binaries/scripts from there and that you should blow away any SSH keys you may have01:02
gordonjcptgm4883: +101:02
ijwyngordonjcp: everything, I use it like my home machine, to run stuff, I'll double click an icon to run Krusader for instance, which is a great file manager which I couldn't run in a shell account01:02
gordonjcpijwyn: I am struggling to understand why you'd do that01:02
tgm4883I would also argue that SSH is faster for server management01:02
=== zipy_ is now known as zipy
ijwyntgm4883: nah, no binaries, was mainly thinking videos and music stuff01:02
gordonjcpijwyn: how would you manage Apache, for example?01:02
chaotixwould anyone recommend that i install keypassx? it is in the software center on the meain screen01:03
gordonjcpchaotix: do you have a lot of passwords to remember?01:03
tgm4883chaotix, uh, do you want to use keypassx?01:03
chaotixi would like to01:03
tgm4883I use lastpass01:03
ijwyngordonjcp: it's a daemon, doesn't really need managing, I just run it like I do on my own machine runs in the background01:03
tgm4883chaotix, well if you want to use it, then yes, you do need to install it ;)01:03
gordonjcpijwyn: I don't think you really understand servers01:04
chaotixmy question was, how was your experience with it01:04
gordonjcpanyway, it's 2am, I'm off to bed01:04
tgm4883chaotix, it works really well. We use it at work.01:04

tgm4883chaotix, I run into some bug that it doesn't display the whole password when trying to view it, but a copy&paste grabs the whole password01:05

blckpythnI have a question01:05
tgm4883blckpythn, shoot01:05
blckpythnSo, I installed cinnamon and was making changes and after an Alt+F2, r, enter, neither Cinnamon or Unity will load now. Where do I begin?01:05
shiman6is there a bug in ubuntu for sound? I have an x61s, and the higher i turn up the volume, the choppier the sound, but only when it's on the built in speakers01:05
tgm4883ijwyn, I must echo gordonjcp. Run servers with a minimal attack footprint01:05
tgm4883blckpythn, probably with ~/.xsession-errors01:06
gordonjcptgm4883: yup01:06
blckpythnOk...problem, I can't even get a terminal01:06
tgm4883shiman6, I'm sure there are lots of bugs with sound ;)01:06
tgm4883blckpythn, not even with ctrl+alt+F101:06
shiman6tgm4883: why, thank you ;p01:06
gordonjcpijwyn: a closed-source binary-only "remote access" app is not safe01:06
blckpythnCorrection, I can get a terminal :P01:06
gordonjcpijwyn: prove that nxclient isn't just sending all your keystrokes to some random criminal in Russia, or the US01:07
blckpythnI get a permission denied with ~/.xsession-errors01:07
gordonjcpijwyn: you can pretty much guarantee that any password you ever typed into that machine is now compromised01:07
blckpythnForgive me, I'm new01:07
tgm4883blckpythn, I'd cat that file and look for errors01:07
tgm4883blckpythn, you shouldn't01:08
ijwyngordonjcp: well, it does seem like a rather popular app though, if it really was THAT bad, wouldn't it be known by now? just a bit surprised by all this...01:08
tgm4883blckpythn, do you own everything in your ~/ dir?01:08
blckpythnPretty fresh install, so yeah01:08
tgm4883blckpythn, well if you get permission denied, then no, you don't01:08
blckpythnI installed 2 hours ago...how could I not?01:09
tgm4883blckpythn, IDK, do 'ls -la ~/'01:09
blckpythn-rw on .xsession-errors01:09
tgm4883ijwyn, again, minimal attack footprint. Tunnel all that over an SSH tunnel then have it only listen on localhost01:10
tgm4883(or just don't use a gui ;) )01:10
tgm4883blckpythn, what is the full permissions?01:10
ijwyngui's are getting lots of love here, lol01:10
ijwynguess I shouldn't be surprised though, heh01:11
tgm4883ijwyn, well for servers, they won't get a lot of love anywhere01:11
blckpythnuh sorry, cat ~/.xsession-errors works01:11
blckpythnagain, very new01:11
tgm4883blckpythn, any error messages look exciting?01:11
blckpythnJS ERROR: !!! looks exciting01:12
blckpythnlots of excietment really01:12
ijwynI don't use the machine *just* as a server, though, possibly that is my problem, but using two machines would be a bit expensive...01:12
tgm4883blckpythn, Did you say the guest account works?01:12
blckpythnYeah oddly enough01:12
tgm4883blckpythn, ok, so rather than use tty1, you should login as a guest, then open a terminal and change to your user to grab this info01:13
tgm4883blckpythn, you installed this two hours ago?01:13
blckpythnyeah...01:13
tgm4883blckpythn, I'd probably just create a new user, copy over any files I wanted to keep and delete the old user01:13
krabadoriat'v'n a ddurm' !!!!!!01:14
blckpythndpkg-reconfigure?01:14
tgm4883blckpythn, no, useradd01:14
blckpythnI know, I'm just saying, would that not fix it?01:15
tgm4883blckpythn, no. if it works for the guest account it's not a system wide issue01:16
hf5eA question if I install ubuntu on the same HD as windows, if after I want to delete ubuntu from the hardrive, will the Ubuntu partition automaticaly marge back with the window partition?01:16
tgm4883blckpythn, it's something in your home directory01:16
wheatthinhf5e, nope01:16
tgm4883blckpythn, is there anything in your home directory worth saving?01:16
huttanhf5e: nope, u'd have to open disk management in windows and fill out the windows partition01:16
hf5eis it easy to do that?01:17
tgm4883hf5e, assuming you aren't using wubi, what ^^ said01:17
blckpythnNo, nothing worth saving01:17
huttanhf5e: its very easy :)01:17
blckpythnI'd like to keep the username though >_<01:17
hf5eok01:18
tgm4883blckpythn, so you could probably just do 'rm -rf ~/*'01:18
hf5eand second question is can the ubuntu 13 theme be changed?01:18
blckpythnahahaha01:18
huttanhf5e: if ur talking about the looks of ur GUI .. yeah, any way u want01:18
tgm4883blckpythn, that will delete everything in your home directory, then just copy over the default stuff from /etc/skel/01:18
blckpythnok, worth a shot01:18
hf5eI would like it to look like the odler ubuntus01:18
hf5eis it possible?01:18
hf5elike I mean not with this side bar thing01:19
huttanhf5e: like without Unity ?01:19
tgm4883!nounity01:19
ubottuUbuntu 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 !classic01:19
blckpythnEverything is still there...01:19
blckpythneven .xsession-errors.old01:19
huttanhf5e: that should be sufficient help for you mate01:19
tgm4883you ran that full command while logged in as yourself (not guest)?01:19
hf5ethanks01:20
blckpythnYeah, sudo su too01:20
tgm4883blckpythn, you added sudo su? or you ran that command, then another command with sudo su added?01:20
tgm4883blckpythn, because if you just added sudo su, then yea, that probably wouldn't work01:20
blckpythnsudo su.... then rm -rf ~/*01:20
tgm4883blckpythn, so you basically told it to delete everything in /root/01:21
blckpythnthat would explain why nothing happened...01:21
tgm4883blckpythn, don't do that01:21
hf5eI dont see "ubuntu-gnome desktop" but I see "gnome desktop utilities" is that the one?01:21
tgm4883blckpythn, just login as yourself, and run the command without sudo01:21
blckpythnbut my prompt is root@comp:/home/myuser#01:21

tgm4883blckpythn, ~/ is a shortcut to $HOME01:22
tgm4883blckpythn, and for root, $HOME is /root01:22
tgm4883blckpythn, so despite what directory you are in, you told it to delete everything in /root/01:22
blckpythn...there are 4 hidden folders in /root/01:23
blckpythnand thats it01:23
huttanblckpythn: What are you trying to achieve??01:23

huttanblckpythn: nope, not if its fresh install01:25
blckpythnok whew01:25

tgm4883huttan, just the stuff in it's directory01:25
huttanwhy not just remake it if its fresh?01:26
blckpythnok so rm -rf /home/myuser/* didn't work either01:26
tgm4883blckpythn, weird01:26
blckpythneverything is still there01:26
blckpythnno error or anything01:26
blckpythnAri-Yang, I know that, neither loads01:27

blckpythnis there a flag for rm that removes hidden as well?01:28
huttanblckpythn: it should do that the way u are doing it01:29
blckpythnnon-hidden folders are gone01:29

Guuest45818Hi01:29

boris66How do I reset my unity desktop? I added an updated ppa and tried to remove the packages from it and it deleted a huge bunch of other stuff.01:33
tgm4883blckpythn, you don't have    .bash_logout  .bashrc  .profile  .xscreensaver01:33
boris66I think I've got all the packages back now but lightdm gives me an empty screen after a login. I've logged into the machine from another machine via ssh and am trying to resolve the last bit..01:34
wheatthinboris66, you have to remove the ppa, update with software updater and it should all go back to normal01:34
boris66i've run apt-get install unity-desktop to grab everything back01:34
blckpythnnot from cp -R /etc/skel/* /home/myuser/01:34
james41382I have a question about Ubuntu 12.04: the "power" button in the upper right corner of the unity GUI sometimes does things that are not what I have selected. For example: I'll click Restart, but it will log out.01:34
tgm4883blckpythn, can you look in /etc/skel and see if there are hidden files in there?01:35
james41382Has anyone experienced this? Does anyone know of a fix?01:35
blckpythnyeah, its got bash_logout .bashrc examples.desktop and .profile01:35
tgm4883blckpythn, can you copy those to your home dir then fix ownership on them?01:36
boris66I only have a bare display with no global menubar or launcher. how do I either get them present or run software updater form the command line?01:37
ef5c_ef5ctgm4883, blkpythn, the shell doesn't include hidden files when it expands the *.  That's why the earlier rm and the cp aren't hitting the hidden files.  Copy them individually if there are only a few01:38
tgm4883ef5c_ef5c, ah that makes sense. Thanks for the info01:38
ef5c_ef5ctgm4883,  yw01:38
blckpythnok, I think I've got them copied, but I don't know how to fix the permissions01:38
tgm4883blckpythn, then 'sudo chown -R myuser:myuser /home/myuser'01:38
boris66doesnt software updater just do the same as a combination of apt-get update/dist-upgrade and apt-get -f install ?01:39
boris66(which I've already done)01:39
tgm4883boris66, does the guest account work?01:40
blckpythnAlright, /home/myuser has .bash_logout, .bashrc, examples.desktop, and .profile with permissions01:42

verywheatthin lol.  haha thanks.  i kinda wanted to get rid of windows though, im presuming thats not possible by running an install from within windows02:21
wheatthinI think you have the opportunity to install onto the usb drive02:21
verywheatthin I was kinda hoping with a strong easterly wind, and a fresh install of something other than windows 7 my 2nd vga output might magically come to life02:21

verywheatthin it probably will.  my question is, (hopefully focused lol) do you think it will actually solve my hardware issue... im wondering where it will get gfx drivers from for example... is it installed within windows... or does it boot from an independent set of files02:26

rjacksI used to have Ubuntu on a HDD, but since I got Windows 8 recently, I thought I'd try and split the SSD for super speedy fun times.03:35
lotuspsychjerjacks: i use ubuntu 13.04 64bit single on an ssd, boots in 4 sec, halts in 2 sec its rocketfast :p03:36
zipyand did u choose uefi when u installed win8?03:36
yebyenif i have an encrypted root fs, can i store the key for encrypted swap somewhere in the filesystem safely (so I don't have to type two passphrases when I boot with encrypted root,swap)?03:36
lotuspsychje!encrypt | yebyen03:36
ubottuyebyen: For information on setting up encrypted private directories (8.10+) see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedPrivateDirectory03:36
rjackszipy I don't remember making a specific selection, I think I just went with 'Express Settings'. Probably dangerous in hindsight lol. Although I'm pretty sure I explicity turned off UEFI booting in the mobo firmware when I built the machine a year ago03:37
yebyenlotuspsychje: thanks, i already have encrypted root and swap, but I randomized the swap key... now I want to set it back to a static key with no passphrase03:37
yebyenlotuspsychje: rewriting the 6.0GB swap part takes the greatest proportion of my boot time with the randomized key, since it has to rewrite the part using mkswap every time a new key is generated03:38
yebyeni don't think it's really an encrypted private directory i want03:38
yebyenthis howto doesn't mention crypttab at all, or fstab03:39
yebyeni think what i need to do is follow this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EnableHibernateWithEncryptedSwap -- except with no passphrase when I get to the LUKS passphrase step03:40
yebyeni just need to make sure if I do that, I'm not doing something silly like storing the key for the swap file in initrd.img, on /boot which is unencrypted03:42
KriShaNsini just realized that reviewing and studying the Linux + compTia training materials, can give me most of the answers i need for the Linux side of Ubuntu. the rest can be found in the Ubuntu forums. mostly. these 2 sources are most valuable03:42

KyouReeUs4nfoHello, can 'Network Manager' read encrypted system-connections file (to hide wireless network-keys in plain text)?

HalftrackHello. When my computer shuts down, a very fast and difficult message shows up. Sometimes it says "windbind daemon failed" or "end transmission." I can only catch a glimpse. I've never used Samba and I'm concerned it has been exploited.05:04
that1guyzykotick9,  gonna try to see how it runs through wine using project64...didn't want to, but i will try.05:05
probsprobsprobsswheatthin: so I have the file on the desktop, I have terminal open and it says username@ubuntu : $ and is ready for me to work some of your typy magic!05:06
Miningdudeiirc, Ubuntu usually says "End Transmission" right before shutdown05:06
HalftrackThere is a small message, but never one this long before.05:06
HalftrackI never bothered to read it.05:06
wheatthinprobsprobsprobss, kk..     sudo dd if=/home/username/<isoname.iso of=/dev/sdb05:07
cfhowlettHalftrack, it'll be in a log05:07

probsprobsprobssthere is an iso file of ubuntu on the desktop. I am in terminal. I want to make the USB drive a bootable version of that ISO...05:12
wheatthinBen64, his cd/dvd is broken, so we're copying the iso, to usb drive, and installing it onto the computer, erasing the windows 7 and wubi install05:13
Ben64sounds like a roundabout way05:13
probsprobsprobssyeh. computers old. giving me a headache05:13
probsprobsprobsslol05:13
cfhowlettBen64, wouldn't PXE be the optimal solution here?05:13
wheatthinBen64, I suggested using dd in windows 7, but ehh05:13
Ben64but anyway, dd if=path_to_the_ubuntu.iso of=/dev/<whatever the flash drive is>05:13

cfhowlett!nounity|cortexa905:24
ubottucortexa9: 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 !classic05:24
MiningdudeSomething that I've noticed with Ubuntu: The longer you use it, the more you get used to using the OS equivalent of Terminal.05:24
probsprobsprobssthe flashing white box is next to [sudo] password for simon jaynes:05:25

probsprobsprobssdd: opening `home/simonjaynes/ubuntu.iso': No such file or directory05:26

MonkeyDustHalftrack  grep is a filter, what do you mean or want to achieve?06:05
KyouReeUs4nfonurow2: (just for reference: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Main_Page)06:06
HalftrackI imagine that it takes time to look through files, kind of like a search would.06:06
MonkeyDustHalftrack  try this line         grep -r "some_text" *06:07
goodjobgrep is a txt process tool, derived from the old unix editor ED06:07
cfhowlett_Halftrack, there's more than likely an easier tool to find the specific info you need.  I only specified grep as I sometimes used that and I don't KNOW the alternatives.  Please ask in the channel.06:08

nurow2thx KyouReeUs4nfo. I'm still following tannji's guide for the moment06:09
KyouReeUs4nfono problem, please post the outcome06:10
HalftrackMy problem is that when Ubuntu shuts down it shows messages that concern me in terms of security. One is "winbind terminal failed." I want to read these messages but they're too quick, and not appearing in the shutdown logs.06:11

MonkeyDustHalftrack  are you using samba?06:15
sensaeThis was my first time asking.. I'm a patient person.06:15
HalftrackI assume that Samba is used automatically by Ubuntu. I have never installed or used Samba.06:15
cfhowlett_Halftrack, some configuration is still required :)06:16
HalftrackI have never configured Samba.06:16
MiningdudeDevSlash: What happens when you try to boot?06:16
AleXaon my 12.10 i manually set internal IP using Gui. When PC starts, it isn't automatically connected to internet. I have to make two clicks on panel, in order to choose wired connection. Then it connects.06:16
HalftrackThere is a Samba file though, with some logs in it.06:16

tannjinurow2,  ah....?    uhoh06:43
SuperLagskype depends on 32-bit libs too, I *think*06:43
SuperLagso if you don't have ia32-libs installed, you might want that06:43
tannjithere isnt a 64-bit skype out yet...06:43
KM0201it installs ia32libs automatically (at least it should)06:43
theadmintannji: Right, it's 32-bit. 64-bit systems can run 32-bit apps with proper libraries installed.06:44
nurow2both of my monitors are way under-scanned each time I boot the computer. If I turn the overscan all the way up, it fixes it. but once I reboot, the problem is back. After rebooting, if I look at the overscan settings, it shows my overscan all the way up (even though it isn't) if i move it down and back up again, it fixes it until I reboot.06:44
KM0201dill: dunno, thats a common solution to the "pixmap" problem however.. here's a link...  http://ubuntutechnical.wordpress.com/2011/11/07/gtk-warning-unable-to-locate-theme-engine-in-module_path-pixmap/06:44

tannjitheadmin,   yep....  but from what I have read recently, skype is pretty borked for ubuntu06:45
KM0201SuperLag: eventually we will.. but there's enoughf olks out there still running 32bit hardware, it's worthwhile for linux to support it for now06:46

KM0201dill: in this case.. probably nothing.06:54
dillyes, deb package06:54

dilland it was working fine was customizing it and after a restart... kaput!...06:55
dilli reinstall opera, dowloading the deb again and nothing06:55
KM0201dill: wellt here's your answer.. your "customizing" probably fubarred something w/ Unity06:55
KM0201dill: go to /home/username/.opera   and delete that folder (note, you will lose all opera settings)... so if you want to copy it elsehwere before doing so.. thats fine)...06:56
KM0201after you delete that folder, restart opera06:56
dillcan be, but was a regular thing, more like settings in opera.06:56

dillKM0201: seems nice what about the dock or application bar?07:05
dillis there any07:05
tannjinurow2,  take a look at this link, I think it might work. notice it requires Xrandr:    http://newagesoldier.com/linux-hdmi-resize-screen-overscan-fix-ubuntu/07:05
KM0201nope... applications are launched in the applicationss menu07:05
KM0201you could make one i guess07:05
tannjinurow2,  also notice that he forgot to put 2 dashes before  Output and Transform07:06
nurow2how  do i get xrandr?07:06
KM0201dill: http://imagebin.org/26318007:07
KM0201dill: i hav a couple of things that i can launch from a "side panel".. that i have set to transparent... it's just a couple of things i like a click away... it works for me.07:07
tannjinurow2,  should be in the software center07:07
dillKM0201: looks nice, thats gnome 3?07:08
KM0201dill: no, that is Mate desktop.. gnome 3 sucks just about as badly Unity.... Mate... is basically gnome 207:08
KM0201here's what i mean by the "side panel" (look on the left...)   it only comes up when i move my cursor all the way to the left of the screen..  http://imagebin.org/26318107:09
dillKM0201: you are right freaking sucks...07:09
KM0201dill: yep...07:10
IvelfanFrHello07:10
KM0201i liked Unity... even preached it's simplicity, etc.. then i decided to take a trip down memory lane w/ Mate(which as I said, is essentially Gnome 2., which i used for years)... and then I realized how much i hated unity... and i've used mate since.07:11
KM0201if you really want dead sexy simplicity/speed... LXDE07:11
SDIShi all07:11
DaughainWhats the best way to learn perl?07:11
nurow2tannji, is it lxrandr?07:11
tannjinurow2,  not sure, I didnt have to use it...   one sec07:12
KM0201unfortunately now, i see Unity as being sort of like Windows 8's interface... someone is trying to make one user interface, for phones, tablets, and PC's... and it just isn't gonna work.07:12
KM0201i think unity will translate well to phones/tablets/touch screens.07:13
nurow2I installed lxrandr.. when I do that command I get: warning: output HDMI1 not found; ignoring07:13
gordonjcpKM0201: it works great on the desktop, too07:13

gordonjcpKM0201: far better than say Gnome 2, with that big ugly bar at the top and bottom07:13
KM0201gordonjcp: again, matter of opinion...07:14
gordonjcpKM0201: generally my opinion is that it doesn't matter *which* desktop you use, they're all much the same07:14
dillgordonjcp: certanly should evolve a bit more in terms of customization07:14
gordonjcpdill: as KM0201 says, it's a matter of opinion07:14
KM0201dill: well, keep mind... it took KDE4 quite a while before it really became usable... i'd even say in the very beginning, it was a complete wreck... now, it's not bad..07:14
MonkeyDustdill  you can use unity-tweak-tool07:15
gordonjcpdill: I couldn't care less about customisation, which is one of the reasons I don't like KDE07:15
* KM0201 doesn't like KDE either07:15
gordonjcpKDE has too many options to fiddle with, to do even the simplest thing like change mouse tracking speed, and if you want to get rid of the irritating animations and visual and sound effects you've got about 50 different things to adjust07:15
KM0201i don't care about customizing, i just the user interface, to get out of the way... for the most part.07:16

emitecanonical de lubuntu?07:18

emitelooks like I will be trying LXDE.07:18
wilee-nileeemite, canonical is ubutnu de is desktop lubuntu is lxde with a bit more.07:18

ubottudill,: 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 !classic07:19

nurow2hello, can anyone help? both of my monitors are way under-scanned each time I boot the computer. If I turn the overscan all the way up, it fixes it. but once I reboot, the problem is back. After rebooting, if I look at the overscan settings, it shows my overscan all the way up (even though it isn't) if i move it down and back up again, it fixes it until I reboot.07:28
tannjinurow2,   I think you can fix it with that xrandr, but it will require either modifying or creating a .conf file for  xorg.  you might want to create a second user account to do it from, or boot the computer from usb live key, so that its easy to recover07:33
nurow2what would i add to the xorg.conf file?07:34

oalAnyone on 13.04 here who have a moment to test something? Open the terminal, and press ctrl+shift (in that order), then shift+ctrl. Is there any difference to you?07:35
oalIn my opinion, I can only use ctrl+shift+something if I press ctrl first07:35
oalVery strange...07:35
KM0201oal: that doesn't seem strange to me07:36
oalKM0201, why not?07:36
KM0201if a keyboard is "control + shift"... to me... "shift+ control" is different07:36
KM0201sorry, keyboard shortcut..07:36
oalIt has never been before07:36
KM0201oal: i dunno, id on't use keyboard shortcuts.. but.. like i said.. it makes sense to me07:36

BillyZanei'm running ubuntu 13.04. i have a problem with an application that won't close. it's vlc player.07:38
cfhowlettKM0201, I tend to agree.  I upgraded last month from Moto Razr v3 to Nexus 4 ... impressive.  And BB waited a bit too long to innovate and release a modern device IMO07:38
MonkeyDustBillyZane  what happens when you try?07:39
BillyZanei tried "sudo killall vlc" , i tried "sudo killall -9 vlc"07:39
wilee-nileeabdel, Using "blackberry ubuntu" as search on google has a lot of hits.07:39
cfhowlettBillyZane, in a terminal run PS to get the process id number of vlc.  Then run kill -9 pid07:39
kohvihoorBillyZane: try pidof vlc and use that number with kill -9 <pid>07:39

ikoniaBaatti: we know it's 64bit and you've just added 32bit packages to it07:49
Baattihrm, so what are my options to fix this, obviously reinstallation, but what other than that?07:49
ikoniaBaatti: `to be honest, I'd re-install it to get it to a known good state07:50
Baattihrm, can I re-install without formatting my drive?07:50
ikoniaBaatti: so ?07:50
ikoniaBaatti: oops, sorry07:51
BaattiI've disabled all of my added sources07:51
BillyZaneMonkeyDust, well, i'm trying to log out atm07:51
Baattithese sources that it's pulling from are straight from installation07:51
ikoniaBaatti: well you don't need to format but a re-install will overwrite it, but I would suggest doing a totally clean install07:51
BillyZaneit's taking quite awhile07:51
BillyZaneMonkeyDust, the messed up thing is vlc is the only media player i have that works half decent07:51
ikoniaBaatti: bit late for that really07:51
Baattiso I can't just simply remove an architecture?07:52
ikoniaBaatti: no07:52
BillyZaneMonkeyDust, this all started after i installed boinc07:52

Baattithe forums tell users to dpkg 64-bit architecture to get skype to work...07:54
Baattiwhy do the forums suggest this if using multiple architectures ruins a system?07:54
kohvihoorBaatti: um, doesn't skype multiarch just work?07:54
kohvihooralso, ubuntu should have multiarch support out of the box07:55
Baattinot sure, I didn't have an issue installing skype because I have a 64 bit cpu07:55
OerHeksBaati reply to that forum that the dpkg i386 is wrong, to help others.07:55
kohvihoorso there should be no need to manually enable an architecture07:55
KM0201skype 64bit should install the 32bit libraries automatically07:56
KM0201sorry, installing skype on 64bit..07:56
ikoniaBaatti: why ar eyou blindly following commands on a forum when all the other forums you say tell you to do something different07:56
BillyZanedude, i can't even log out07:56
ikoniaBaatti: there is official documentation in both the ubuntu website and the skype website on this07:56
kohvihoorBillyZane: reboot then07:56
Baattiikonia it wasn't for skype XD07:56
KM0201..07:57
BillyZanei don't want to have to keep rebooting to fix this recurring problem07:57
ikoniaBaatti: then why are you referencing skype07:57
BaattiIt's a newb mistake. I figured that since my software wouldn't install on a 64-bit, because I saw instructions on adding achitecture for other issues, I'd try it.07:57
ikoniaBaatti: surly just fixing the "real" problem rather than referencing skype should be your concern07:57
KM0201Baatti: what are you trying to install on 32bit?07:57
KM0201sorry, on 64bit07:57

KM0201hmm, i thought he just instaled the 32bit libraries? the "ia32libs".. or some such?08:02
ikoniaBaatti: the best option is for you to backup your data - re-install ubuntu with the correct arch only, then pay more attention to what's going on after restoring your data08:02
ikoniaKM0201: no, he added 32bit architechture08:02

Darkyyyi want ubuntu 64 fully installed just cant get to it08:35
theadminDarkyyy: http://download.plop.at/files/bootmngr/plpbt-5.0.14.zip - run "install_to_bootmenu.bat" (or something) as administrator, load it, then it'll let you boot from USB08:35
blazemoretheadmin: I'm going to remember that one, seems useful08:36
theadminblazemore: Some call it a "BIOS extender", lets you boot from any partition/drive quite easily, or chainload another bootloader08:36
varunendraDarkyyy, there is also the option of network install, although I never tried it myself :P08:36
Darkyyyi have plop08:37
theadminvarunendra: Well, network install would still need a CD/USB to boot that from08:38
theadminvarunendra: (or maybe PXE-boot but that's overly complicated, would need a second machine too)08:38
stefanoany idea for firmware-b43-installer failing contacting lwfinger.com?08:38
blazemoreOh Gods :D :D08:39
varunendratheadmin, the netboot intro says - "if you have an old machine with a non-bootable CD-ROM..."08:39

varunendrabut yeah, getting a cd/dvd is much better & easier :D08:40
stefanook, it works now :-)08:40
blazemorestefano: Must have just been a small intermittent network problem on your end, or that site08:41
varunendratheadmin, do you know that slax iso has ready to use pxe mode? I wonder if the image can be replaced in it to take advantage of it. :)08:42

shinao1Hi I've been trying to setup 13.04 as an L2TP/IPSec VPN Client but it doesn't work... does 13.04 support IPSec/L2TP tunnelling? I keep getting this error: ERROR: asynchronous network error report on eth0 (sport=4500) for message to <IP_Address> port 18547, complainant <IP_Address>: Connection refused [errno 111, origin ICMP type 3 code 3 (not authenticated)]08:46
shinao1And it works from my cyanomod tablet!08:47
ActionParsnipshinao1: did you obfuscate the ip address or did you literally type '<ip address>'?08:48
shinao1ActionParsnip: obfuscation08:49
blazemoreshinao1: "I think that 'not authenticated' is the relevant part of that error message - clearly some sort of handshake is ocurring08:49

shinao1Hmm.. not ubuntu relevant as far as I can see.. I built the VPN server off of a RHEL box, and I have successful connects from an Android tablet, MacOSX and Fedora08:53
shinao1Only 13.04 is giving me problems and I read somewhere that its possible that IPSec isnt in the kernel anymore08:54
ActionParsnipshinao1: try a Precise liveCD to test08:54
shinao1Ubuntu kernel that is08:54
shinao1Unfortunately once I upgrade I dont go back08:54
shinao1:)08:54
ActionParsnipshinao1: reread what I wrote....liveCD...?08:55
shinao1I read it clearly08:55
shinao1I guess I'll be switching to Fedora then... a pity08:55
shinao1I really like ubuntu08:56
ActionParsnipshinao1: so if you test the live CD, needing no sort of 'going back', if it works there then it is a bug08:56
shinao1I dont have the kit, and I live in a bandwidth poor area.08:56
cfhowlettshinao1, torrent ...08:56
shinao1Have to go and find it08:56
ActionParsnipshinao1: not got an old CD around, or a pal with one or more bandwidth08:56
shinao1off of someone else's connection08:57
ActionParsnipshinao1: could use an SSH tunnel instead :)08:57

ubottuDaughain,: To just use java you need a "Java Runtime Environment" (JRE) and/or a browser plugin.

MrQuistHey guys10:01
MickSsudo apt-get install ia32-libs10:01
MrQuistI'm having external-monitor issues :P10:01
MrQuistAh, thanks MickS10:01
MrQuistAnyway: Im on a Lenovo ThinkPad T530 @ ubuntu 12.10. My external monitor works fine over VGA, but thats blurry. So i have this cable: Mini DP -> DP -> Into my monitor10:02
MrQuistNow, all i can see is the "Ubuntu" logo, as if my laptop is booting10:02
MrQuistIn the system > displays however, is only my laptop screen. Not the external one.10:03
ActionParsnipThe-Dark-Master: if you get to the login screen and hit CTRL+ALT+F1 you can login there and edit /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf You will need to comment out the 'autologin-user' line, like here http://askubuntu.com/questions/106428/how-to-disable-automatic-login10:03
MrQuistHow can i make this work? What could be wrong?10:03
The-Dark-Masteryeah, that lost me10:03
ActionParsnipThe-Dark-Master: you can edit it with nano which is a CLI text editor10:03
The-Dark-Masterwordpad?10:03
ActionParsnipThe-Dark-Master: pressing CTRL_ALT+F1 lost you?10:04
The-Dark-Masterthe other stuff did10:04
ActionParsnipThe-Dark-Master: then run:   sudo nano /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf   and make the changes, press CTRL+X, Press Y, Press ENTER10:04
ActionParsnipThe-Dark-Master: then run:  sudo reboot10:04
The-Dark-Masterok10:04

cfhowlett_The-Dark-Master-, what are the specs?10:07
The-Dark-Master-i give, im trying lubuntu10:08
ActionParsnipThe-Dark-Master-: its a simple text file edit10:08
The-Dark-Master-1.6GHZ amd and 4 GB ram10:08
k1l!lubuntu | Newb10110:08
ubottuNewb101: lubuntu is Ubuntu with LXDE instead of !GNOME as desktop environment, which makes it extremely lightweight. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu - /join #lubuntu for lubuntu support.10:08
MonkeyDustThe-Dark-Master-  I have a 4 year old acer (without hdmi :( ), works like a charm10:08
cfhowlett_The-Dark-Master-, or xubuntu ... both are optimized for older/lower spec machines ...10:08
Newb101nice10:08
maroloccioun commento: LXDE non è "estremamente" più leggera di GNOME, almeno non gnome-session-fallback (i.e. classic / gnome-2 / etc)10:09
maroloccioho misurato.. non è "estremamente"10:09

Newb101ubuntu is .deb10:11
The-Dark-Master-she needed a new screen10:11
The-Dark-Master-i need a 64 bit os10:11

=== yebyen is now known as Guest34729
The-Dark-Master-she runs like shit on a 32bit10:12
The-Dark-Master-she came with 64 bit factory10:12
ActionParsnipThe-Dark-Master-: 64bit isn't outright faster10:12
The-Dark-Master-but i have access to all my ram10:12
The-Dark-Master-not 2 out of 4 gb10:13
ActionParsnipNewb101: the install method is similar in the minimal10:13
maroloccioi just wanted to say that it does not seem to me that lxde is "extremely" more lightweight10:13
k1lThe-Dark-Master-: ubuntu uses PAE kernels, which use all the ram, too10:13
ActionParsnipThe-Dark-Master-: the kernel is PAE, so can access up to 64Gb RAM10:13
TopGearHow do I remove a folder via SSH from an external HD? "sudo rm -rf" gives me "can't remove, folder is not empty." If I try to access the folder, it gives me a input/output error.10:13
maroloccioi measured Vs gnome-session-fallback and, to be honest, it's "more lw".. but not "extremely so".10:13
ActionParsnipTopGear: is the file system read only?10:13
ActionParsnipThe-Dark-Master-: basically, your 'need' doesn't seem very justified10:14
llutzmaroloccio: some urban legends never die10:14
TopGearActionParsnip: I don't believe so. I'll test it.10:14
The-Dark-Master-i need to upgrade the 32 bit windows that was put on here10:14
ActionParsnipTopGear: the 'mount' command will tell you10:14
TopGearActionParsnip: Nope, r/w.10:14
marolocciollutz: seriously.. one has to measure. it is def. "more" lw.. mind you.. but gnome "2" is pretty tight too..10:14
ActionParsnipThe-Dark-Master-: ask in ##windows for windows support10:14
The-Dark-Master-eh, im losing windows10:15
The-Dark-Master-too much to upgrade to 64bit10:15

ActionParsnipcfhowlett: no idea, its garbage10:19
The-Dark-Master-my dvd drive wont burn10:19
DaughainWhats wubi?10:19
The-Dark-Master-its like gen 1 sata10:19
cfhowlettActionParsnip, I think wubi has turned more users off from ubuntu than it ever brought in ...10:19
ActionParsnipDaughain: a cheap hack to make a disk file in the NTFS of windows, install ubuntu to it and use it like a dual boot.10:19
ActionParsnipDaughain: its super fragile and hard to fix if it goes wrong.10:20
The-Dark-Master-augh, damn wubi10:20
cfhowlettActionParsnip, except it breaks frequently, messily and unpredictably10:20

mastabablazemore: doesn't seem to be my experience.  I've tried both ubuntu server 12.10 and now 13, but they both do the same thing.  Perhaps I need to set up a user for each computer connection12:45

razzledazzleguys, I kicked myself out of my own house :|13:13

razzledazzlewhat do I do?13:13

bipulhellopat, How i can i install libav file in my ubuntu to conver .yuv file into .m4v13:13
KyouReeUs4nforazzledazzle: use live USB to undo it13:13
x5seb9xauronandace: so basically best in our case to have a windows cloud or local server and connect to it with our Ubuntu clients but basically also meaning we have to have a good bandwidth right?13:15
BenyaminLhello, ijust fixed my ubuntu burg, now i wana merge a unallocated partition, now i need hlep using gparted, i have try anything, i can't, need future help, thx13:15
KyouReeUs4nforazzledazzle: or use recovery, drop as root to undo it13:15
sindriStill no one who can help me out with vsftpd?13:15
mreggHi - need help or pointers big time. Somebody installed Webmin/Virtualmin on server and since then postfix no longer accepts any connection.13:15
auronandacex5seb9x: i can't really say whats best for your setup but i can tell you there will very likely be issues due to the programs your using13:18
x5seb9xok13:18

MrQuistHey Guys, I'm having external-monitor issues13:19
MrQuist Im on a Lenovo ThinkPad T530 @ ubuntu 12.10. My external monitor works fine over VGA, but thats blurry. So i have this cable: Mini DP -> DP -> Into my monitor13:19
MrQuistNow, all i can see is the "Ubuntu" logo, as if my laptop is booting13:19
MrQuistIn the system > displays however, is only my laptop screen. Not the external one.13:19
MrQuistHow can i make this work? What could be wrong?13:19
FloodBot1MrQuist: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.13:19
MrQuistsry FloodBot1 i type fast ;)13:19
tkingplease how do i install Dev C++ in  ubuntu13:20
MrQuisttking -> download it and install it13:20
tkingMrQuist, i cant find the Ubuntu version13:21
arminso what are the reasons ubuntu ships with a dnsmasq right now?13:21
MrQuistthen i hope there is one for you tking13:22
MrQuist....13:22
BluesKajtking, depends what C++ dev field you want13:22
MrQuisttking, http://www.bloodshed.net/dev/devcpp.html13:22
MrQuisti suppose that "Requirements13:22
MrQuist13:22
MrQuistWindows 95 or higher"13:22
FloodBot1MrQuist: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.13:22
MrQuistmeans that its for windows.13:22
MrQuistDamn you floodbot.13:23
armindamn, that floodbot really sucks.13:23
x5seb9xtking > Ctrl + alt + F2  then type lsb_release -a13:23
adamkMrQuist: Seriously, stop using Enter as punctuation, and you won't have this problem.13:23
MrQuisttking, replace CTRL+ALT+F2 with CTRL+SHIFT+T13:23
MrQuistadamk, i'm sorry, i pasted something wrong.13:23
BluesKajMrQuist, then stop using the enter key for each phrase13:24
arminyou are in a linux channel. people there use the command line. they write things. quickly. and it's good that they do that.13:24
mreggHi all :) anyone familiar with Postfix?13:24
adamkarmin: There's a difference between writing things quickly, and flooding the channel by using the enter key over and over when a simple comma or period will do.13:25
MrQuistI never use enter for punctuation. Why would i. Also, is there someone that can help me with my monitor problem? Hello? Someone? .... I'd like some help with my monitor problems.. I suppose its the videocard drivers or something. Its weird tho, since i _do_ get a simple ubuntu logo when i plug my monitor in. Hello?13:25
arminadamk: sure is, and i vote for not using enter as punctuation as well, but forcing a way of speech (by a bot) on humans is just completely wrong.13:26
arminadamk: and i'm writing irc bots myself.13:27
sindriufw tells me port 21 is allowed, but telnet localhost @ that port is refused, why is that?13:27
Friberg_you have nothing there13:28
MrQuistI wish I could just use the enter key :( @armin -> indeed. Also, the only reason that i made that triple-line post, was because i accidentaly pasted a 0x13.. But erm, is there someone that could help me out? @armin, oh cool, what kind of bots? @sindri, is there a firewall / service running there?13:28
arminadamk: apart from that, i aggregate thoughts while i type, and using the enter key terminates a line of thoughts for me, mentally. people think in a very different way, and while it's ok to tell them to not flood that way and reconsider their way of thinking while they communicate, it's pretty bad to force your way of thinking on others.13:28
sindriI was hoping my ftp (vsftpd) service ran there, any quick way to check?13:28
auronandacearmin: they won't change the floodbots, thats the way it is, just accept the channel guidelines and move on13:29
arminadamk: MrQuist is just using a pretty awkward workaround to not get punished by the bot right now as you can see, as he tries to be kind and communicate in a way that is fine with everyone here. that's a very friendly thing, and it destroys the separation of thoughts in his speech.13:29
bipulHello why i am getting this error http://pastebin.com/Etgakg9013:30
MrQuist@sindri: lantup -pa | grep *processname*13:30
MrQuistnetstat* sorry13:30
MrQuistnetstat -pa | grep *application*13:30
arminauronandace: i'm not trying to change that. i'm just saying it's wrong and they should feel ashamed for trying to force this by bots.13:30
antonio_no one is chatting in #kdenlive...13:30
BluesKajarmin, that's what sentences are for separated by periods :)13:30
antonio_I think the problem is with melt...its showing that its taking 114% of the CPU is system monitor...what can I do?13:31
arminBluesKaj: and that's just what i do. but in technical speech that's just sometimes not possible, especially when using multiline pastes, which again is not a problem at all if you don't use more than, say, 3 lines or so.13:31
AllyoutooWhy is the Minitube applicaiton in software center licensed as proprietary software if its licensed under LGPL :S13:31
jribarmin: before the bot, the rule still existed.  It just meant human beings had to be bothered to send the factoid to people.  The rule helps with channel readability.  Let's move on13:31
MrQuist@ sindri -> this might work better: netstat -tulpn |grep :2113:31
sindriMrQuist : thanks, it returns nothing so I guess I know where my problem is atleast13:32
MrQuistsindri , sorry, once again - you have to try  "netstat -tulpn |grep 21"13:32
MrQuistthat should show a service on port 2113:32
MrQuistor not.13:32
arminjrib: again, i'm writing bots myself, but i never write any that do harm to people. but yes, let's move on on that one.13:32
KyouReeUs4nfosindri: iptables -nvL may tell you more about it. (If I may say this, ufw is not the actual firewall)13:32
arminMrQuist: irc-bots of any kind, mostly simple ones in python that perform specific tasks. right now a twitter bot that aggregates tweets, tweets itself, etc.13:33
adamk"harm to people"... Wow...  Never thought I'd hear anyone suggest FloodBoot was actually harming people.13:33
sindriKyoReeUs4nfo : hehe I know ufw isn't the real thing but is was more noob friendly; haven't really gotten the hang of iptables, and using fail2ban so it's HUGE13:33
MrQuistsweet :) @ adamk -> actually floodbot is flooding this channel.... I posted 3 lines. Floodbot then added 3 (+1 private). Then added 3 more.13:34
arminMrQuist: i fully agree with you.13:35
numbertoHi guys, I have intalled new font and can see it from Libreoffice writer, but does not see it in my terminal.13:36
MrQuistPlus, there's 3 of them.13:36
armineven worse would be kicking "flooders", at least it doesn't do that.13:36
MrQuistheheh +q can be even more annoying13:36
auronandacearmin: it can kick repeating flooders13:37

smallmousehow do i know what users i have on the system ?14:02
jattcat /etc/passwd14:03
KyouReeUs4nfoQuick question (I haven't really surfed for this): I would like to share just music player so that I could access that and the local playlists on the iPhone. Something like terminal services in we-in-dow-s. How do I go about it?14:03
KyouReeUs4nfosmallhouse: users14:03
smallmouseKyouReeUs4nfo: i have only 2, but 3 home directories ? any ideas ?14:04
lmatI have a device (/dev/sdc1) that doesn't have a UUID in /dev/disk/by-uuid . What should I do?14:04
KyouReeUs4nfosmallmouse: /etc/passwd comes with some users with /home14:04
smallmouseKyouReeUs4nfo: 2 users - ubuntu and ubuntu but 3 home directories drup, sira, ubuntu.  i thought i added the other 2 dont show up14:05
jattanybody can create a home directory the user must not exist14:05
smallmouseKyouReeUs4nfo: yes more have come up14:05
KyouReeUs4nfosmallmouse: drup and sira ? did you create those?14:06
smallmouseKyouReeUs4nfo: yes14:06
lmatThe disk shows up in /dev/disk/by-id as a USB drive...14:06
KyouReeUs4nfosmallmouse: all is well then, yes?14:06
smallmouseKyouReeUs4nfo: why dont they come uo ?14:06
smallmouseKyouReeUs4nfo: when i type in users, very misleading14:07
smallmouseKyouReeUs4nfo: i want to give them access to a particular directory and path but cant change permissions of the directory - is there a way to do this ?14:07
MonkeyDustKyouReeUs4nfo  is this useful? it's not exactly the same issue, though http://www.sysadminshare.com/2011/12/change-uuid-of-cloned-disk-in-linux.html14:07
KyouReeUs4nfosmallmouse: users command will tell you which ones are using bash terminals actually and I think you wanted to find out total number of users so that would be in /etc/passwd. If the other two are not logged in, it won't show when you execute users.14:08

Crazyeaglewould like to ask a question about usb drives formatting mounting etc. Would this be the place?14:11
ActionParsnipCrazyeagle: if its under Ubuntu, yes14:11
lmatCrazyeagle: YES!!!14:11
Crazyeagleok14:11
lmatI have a device (/dev/sdc1) that doesn't have a UUID in /dev/disk/by-uuid . What should I do?14:11
lmatCrazyeagle: Can you help?14:11
icerootlmat: sudo blkid is not shwoing a UUID?14:12
lmaticeroot: It doesn't show anything!14:12
MonkeyDustlmat  you too, this is a hint: uuidgen    http://www.sysadminshare.com/2011/12/change-uuid-of-cloned-disk-in-linux.html14:12
CrazyeagleInstalled 12.04lts and then inserted usb initially it read it but then ejected it from nautilus14:12
lmatCrazyeagle: Must be lukewarm...14:13
Crazyeaglethen reinserted the usb again everything was gone lmat14:13
lmatCrazyeagle: whoa...that's worse than lukewarm...this is gnashing of teeth!14:13
Crazyeaglelmat: yes is frustrating then same thing happen to a 2nd usb so afraid of putting any other usb drv in!14:14
lmatMonkeyDust: Wow, that looks easy enough! But it still leaves me flabberghasted as to why the original UUID is gone. Oh welll14:14
lmatfor sure!14:14
lmatCrazyeagle: &14:14
lmatCrazyeagle: ^14:14
Crazyeaglelmat: got into gparted to format gparted won't list14:14
lmatCrazyeagle: You have another computer?14:14
BluesKajCrazyeagle, or do you have a cdrom ?14:15
lmatCrazyeagle: yeah, see what it does to your CDs ^_^14:15
AndreasErHow can i use iptables to redirect all http errors(404,403 etc) to a specific IP?14:15
Crazyeagleyes I do14:15
Crazyeaglei used gparted won't see the usb then though well winblows maybe can reformat it won't let me14:16
Crazyeagleusing dd tels me there is no medium14:16
ikoniaCrazyeagle: it's called "windows" try to show a little bit of maturity and communicate the products correctly14:16
lmatAndreasEr: I don't think IPTables reads http ?14:16
Crazyeagledisk utility list this as sgf14:16
Crazyeaglesorry just kidding14:17
BluesKajCrazyeagle,is this a an attempt at installing from a usb or just trnsferring files to a dir on the computer ?14:17
lmatikonia's comment reflects a different world-view than that previously popular in free operating systems...14:17
KyouReeUs4nfosmallmouse: can you do chmod 755 to those user's directories?14:18
CrazyeagleBluesKaj: no I wanted to write some files just simple use a usb14:18
lmatNo longer are the free softwares apparently taking pop shots at the "big boys", we now treat them with respect; not as equals, but as inferiors.14:18
Crazyeaglelmat: well what you think14:18
Crazyeaglelmat: lsusb list the device but gparted won't see it14:18
lmatCrazyeagle: I think you should do a careful, documentable test. Use another computer, write a file to the usb, put it in linux, take it back to the other computer and verify that the file is gone.14:19
lmatCrazyeagle: did the usb devices work before some other event?14:19
lmatCrazyeagle: Could it be that the data aren't deleted, but simply not listed?14:19
AndreasErlmat , i dont know tbh. I have successfully redirected all trafic to a specific IP. But if the router isnt connected to the internet it doesent seams to work. Got any better idea how i can send basicly everything from the web(80/443) to an internal IP?14:19
lmatCrazyeagle: Are you using an old Dell?14:19
Crazyeaglelmat: the drive was being used on a venerable Windows 7 MS operating system14:20
BluesKajCrazyeagle, sudo fdisk -l , see if it's listed there14:20
samyhola14:20
lmatAndreasEr: now, everything from the web is *very* different than all HTTP errors! Everything from the web is IP traffic, yes, this is very possible.14:20
CrazyeagleBluesKaj: no a optiplex 301014:20
samyalguien q m exe una manita?14:20
lmatAndreasEr: No I don't know how. I'd have to experiment just like you ^_^ What's your setup?14:20
lmatCrazyeagle: venerable as opposed to winblows, or vulnerable?14:20
lmatsamy no14:21
Crazyeaglelmat: not the file is gone the drive becomes inaccesible14:21
BluesKajCrazyeagle, what's an optiplex 3010?14:21

Crazyeagleit won't list with fdisk or df or other only lsusb will list and only disk utility will see it14:23
Crazyeaglebut cannot format with disk utility14:23
lmatAndreasEr: All incoming traffic ?14:23
Crazyeagleit says Error creating partition table: helper exited with exit code 1: cannot open /dev/sdf: No medium found14:24
lmatAndreasEr: Are you configuring a router?14:24
CrazyeagleBluesKaj: this is what disk utility or dd will always say Error creating partition table: helper exited with exit code 1: cannot open /dev/sdf: No medium found14:24
lmatCrazyeagle: what about    ls -al /dev/usb   ?14:24
KyouReeUs4nfoAndreasEr: may be string module could do it, not sure14:25
AndreasErlmat , yes it's a router running tomato (linux)14:25
Crazyeaglelmat:  ls -al /dev/usb14:25
Crazyeaglelmat:  said ls: cannot access /dev/usb: No such file or directory14:25
ikoniaAndreasEr: then why are you asking in #ubuntu ?14:25

prod_Hi all. I am looking for help fixing my monitor resolution. After failing all the guides I have come here to ask what im doing wrong. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution is the main thread i am working from. For some reason xrandr --addmode isnt persistent. On reboot I get a crazy long error message taking up my whole screen.14:26
AndreasErikonia, thanks.14:26
Crazyeaglelmat: i put this sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdf bs=1M and get this dd: opening `/dev/sdf': No medium found14:27
lmatAndreasEr: Ahh! I wasn't familiar with Tomato.14:27
lmatAndreasEr: gotcha14:27
CrazyeagleBluesKaj: any suggestions?14:27
ikoniaCrazyeagle: there is no disk14:27
lmatAndreasEr: I'd have to google it same as you.14:27
ikoniaCrazyeagle: it's not called sdf14:27
ikoniait's that simple14:28
Crazyeaglebut disk utility list like that?14:28
lmatCrazyeagle: Thank goodness you got no medium found!14:28
lmatCrazyeagle: I think you would break it if that succeeded, right?14:28
ikoniaCrazyeagle: ls -la /dev/sdf14:28
aiten_44Crazyeagle: should be something on the order of sdfx where x is a number14:28
lmatCrazyeagle: oh, no /dev/usb...so sorry14:28
ActionParsnipCrazyeagle: sudo fdisk -l     will show the disk layouts14:28
Crazyeagleikonia: ls -la /dev/sdf <- what I got14:29

Crazyeagleikonia: from the cmd you suggested14:30
aiten_44Crazyeagle: what happens when you try fdisk /dev/sdf do you get an error message?14:30

Crazyeagleno a usb it is a cruzer mini 512mb14:31
Crazyeagleput in different ports same thing14:31
aiten_44Crazyeagle do you have another computer you can try to verify that the usb drive still actually works?14:32
=== kcristiano_ is now known as krist
Crazyeagleaiten_44: I put this usb on a win7 machine comes up but says can't access14:32
ikoniaCrazyeagle: so what does that tell you.....14:33
aiten_44reason why I ask is flash memory can only be read to and written to so many times and being a 512mb flash drive leads me to believe its older and might not work any more14:33
ikoniaCrazyeagle: can't access in windows...can't access in ubuntu14:33
Crazyeaglewell but intially worked on win7 then put on ubuntu, ejected it properly with nautilus and then stoppped working14:34
Crazyeagleikonia: so then used a second usb and same thing happen14:34
sindriaccording to #ps -A | grep "ftp" I got 10 processes running, is this normal behavious running vsftpd?14:34
Crazyeagleikonia: so how many usbs I have to break on my ubuntu install to figure that something wrong is going on?14:35
Crazyeagleikonia: when I put them back on win 7 then also everything is gone, thankfully did not have anything important14:36
aiten_44Crazyeagle: can you remformat the usb stick in windows?  If so try reformatting it as fat32 and then plugging it into your ubuntu comp see if it does it again14:36
Crazyeagleaiten_44: it won't let me14:37
aiten_44Crazyeagle: alright was worth a shot have you tried opening that drive using gparted?14:38
Crazyeagleaiten_44: windows sees it but then says insert a disk then try again! crazy because is a usb and it can see it14:38
TakumoHey, anyone had the issue where logrotate doesn't seem to be runing the postrotate scripts14:38
Takumobut if you run it manually it does?14:39
Crazyeaglegparted won't see it but disk utility will14:39
Crazyeagleaiten_44: so not sure what that is all about14:39
aiten_44Crazyeagle:  You said this was a sandisk crusier right?  I do beleive that some of those actually mounted as a cdrom drive and automounted the actuall flash portion might be part of your prob14:40
Crazyeaglewell is an old sandisk 512mb in windows it did not have a cdrom section14:40

cropalatoHi, i'm trying to use do-release-upgrade with my internal mirror. But when i get my precise.tar.gz form my internal server, the tool is using prerequists-sources.list to download some files (it is pointing to archive.ubuntu.com). In this file, there is a variable ${mirror}. How can i use it?14:51
GeofffHi all, just wondering if there's a way to watch a folder and FTP files in it when to a server when they're saved?14:53
reisioGeofff: so many ways14:54
GalaxorHi.  I can't apt-get install anything because it says linux-generic : Depends: linux-headers-generic (= 3.2.0.43.51) but 3.2.0.48.58 is to be installed14:54
ikoniaGalaxor: do a sudo apt-get update to bring the local cache in sync14:54
Geofffreisio: Such as? :P14:55
blazemoreGeofff: What's you're looking for is folder syncronisation - does it have to be FTP?14:55
antivirtelhi, is here someone who has expirience with avidemux2_cli?14:56
Geofffblazemore, Yeah - they're going up to a webserver that I only have FTP access to14:56
blazemoreGeofff: The easiest thing to do would just be to script it to sync every 5 minutes or so14:56

Yud_ZrocIm using ubuntu 13.04 and my update manager popped up with an update(which I dont mind) I am wondering why Kubuntu updates are starting to show for the KDE14:59
blazemorepauser: Different browsers deal with javascript in entirely different ways, Ubuntu has nothing to do with it14:59
pauserreisio: its not open source, but its true what i said ! How do i solve the problem14:59
ikoniaYud_Zroc: what you've just said doesn't make sense14:59
philinuxYud_Zroc: I get same as I have k3b installed14:59
reisiopauser: it's going to be hard if you can't show anyone anything14:59
reisiopauser: start with #javascript14:59
blazemoreYud_Zroc: Do you mean, you are wondering why there are updates for KDE packages being shown, when you are not using Kubuntu?15:00
Yud_Zrocblazemore: correct15:00
blazemoreYud_Zroc: If you have ever installed a KDE application like k3b, it also installs a lot of requirements to allow KDE packages to run on Ubuntu15:00
blazemoreYud_Zroc: The package manager will continue to keep these requirements up-to-date15:00
pauserblazemore: i know but its not possible that the same project works in 4 other computers and for me it does not work in firefox,chrome,opera15:00
blazemoreYud_Zroc: It is nothing to worry about :)15:00

sandeepr_ltpthere is also one file called admin.xx15:07
sandeepr_ltpi want to list all the names except admin.xx15:07
blazemoreYud_Zroc: You have, at some point, installed a package which has KDE dependencies. This could be some game, or k3b, or something. Now, Ubuntu is trying to keep those dependencies up-to-date, and you should let it15:08
aiten_44Crazyeagle: Idk lol I have had similar situations though I'm still looking into your problem hopefully we'll figure it ot15:08
aiten_44out15:08
sandeepr_ltpwhat is my option15:08
sandeepr_ltpi have attempted grep, cut15:08

Crazyeagleaiten_44: TY for trying!15:08
yugandhari've a seperate partition for my home and also it consists lot files which are more important , how can i fresh install ubuntu 13.04 without deleting my home partition.15:09
blazemoreYud_Zroc: You would have to remove the package which required those dependencies to be installed in the first place. OR you can install "synaptic" package manager, find one of the packages which offends you so much, and mark it for removal. Then, it will list a lot of packages to be removed, and you should say yes, remove them all15:09
blazemoreYud_Zroc: But you will lose whatever package you originally installed which required those dependencies15:09
jiltdilIs there any way to know the previous calculation (history) done through bc ?15:10

jiltdilreisio, yes, no history for bc , i already saw man . Any way thanks15:13
blazemoreyugandhar: Before you do anything, make a backup onto another machine or external drive (just in case). Then, you can choose custom partitioning during the installer, and choose your existing /home partition to mount as /home. make sure you do not tick the box to format it.15:13
blazemoreyugandhar: If it were me, I'd do a backup and a completely fresh install, and then copy the important files back over15:13

lmatI'm having trouble mounting a drive. It's a raid with 3 disks in it. It mounted until recently when the power shut off. Now, there's a /dev/sdc1 for it, but no /dev/disk/by-uuid for it. It also shows up in /dev/disk/by-id as a USB driev.15:15
Galaxorblazemore, ikonia: My solution:  I created /fakeboot and then bind-mounted it over /boot.  Now /boot has as much space as it needs.  I apt-get -f install.  Then I uninstall the old kernels, and then un-bind-mount and then make /boot have the same stuff as /fakeboot, using rsync with --delete-during or whatever.15:15
Crazyeagleikonia: Ubuntu software center u3-tool15:15
ikoniaCrazyeagle: how did you install it15:16
lmatI've tried tune2fs -U to change the UUID (give it a UUID). The error I get is "Bad magic number in super-block while trying ot open /dev/sdc1", so I've tried restoring a backup superblack to no avail.15:16
Crazyeaglesearch for it got the icon click install that's it15:16
Galaxorblazemore, ikonia: I got stuck, though.  Once I had /fakeboot bind-mounted over /boot, my disk-space problems went away, but now there's dependency problems:  linux-generic : Depends: linux-image-generic (= 3.2.0.43.51) but 3.2.0.48.58 is to be installed15:16
lmatWhen I try to mount it, mount wants me to specify the fs (which is a red light in my book), then I specify the fstype and get the above error again.15:16
Crazyeagleikonia: did that just now15:17
ikoniaCrazyeagle: you said you installed it from the command15:17

holsteinmotaka2: you likely dont have permission..18:39
JaZZyCooLalso how can I install and replace grub 1.99 with 2.018:40
holsteinJaZZyCooL: run the boot repair, and get your OS's booting.. you should have no need to upgrade grub18:40
bekksJaZZyCooL: 1.99 actually is 2.18:40
bekksJaZZyCooL: .9x was grub1, 1.9x is grub2.18:40
JaZZyCooLOne last question if you guys don't mind18:41
holstein!ask | JaZZyCooL18:41
Kitt3nJaZZyCooL, in Boot-repair just click on 'purge bootloader' and it should guide you through the uninstallation of the old bootloader.18:41
ubottuJaZZyCooL: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience18:41

samgabbaywithout reinstalling18:42
JaZZyCooLI also want to install crunchbang along side ubuntu and windows 8, keeping the ubuntu EFI grub as the master grub so that I can boot into all the OS without changing the boot mode (UEFI or Legacy)18:42

MonkeyDustsamgabbay  try sudo apt-get purge ubuntu-desktop;sudo apt-get autoremove18:42
holsteinJaZZyCooL: crunchbang is not supported here.. there is nothing about ubuntu preventing you from installing whatever you want18:42
Kitt3nJaZZyCooL, install crunchbang first, then boot up Boot-repair18:42
Kitt3nThe old bootloader from crunchbang should bother Boot-repair :)18:43
Kitt3nShouldn't*18:43
Kitt3nDang it18:43
JaZZyCooL<Kitt3n> so how can I solve that problem18:43
samgabbaythanks18:44
holsteinyeah, i would just install whatever OS's i want, such as #! *first*, as Kitt3n suggested, then i would run the boot repair18:44
Kitt3nJaZZyCooL, make a partition for crunchbang, and install crunchbang, then boot up a livecd of Ubuntu and run Boot-repair.18:44

scheidmgreetings! might anyone help me with a strange partition issue I am having?19:58

whatsyournamefirst of all, i just don't want to give up my windows19:59
Kitt3nwhatsyourname, virtualbox19:59
An_Ony_MooseChadman: where it says mplayer movie.mp4 <...> replace movie.mp4 with your gif file19:59
whatsyournamei just want to run it on my windows OS19:59
An_Ony_MooseChadman: I'm going to go eat. Good luck, and I'll be back later. I'll PM you when I'm back if you're still there19:59
scheidmfair enough. I have ubuntu on a VM. it needed more space, so I loaded Gparted and scaled up the only data partition on the drive to 25 gigs. When I reboot however the OS still only shows 7 gigs of HD space20:00
Chadmanalright an_ony_moose, ill try mplayer.20:00
scheidmis there any way to force ubuntu to re-assess the size of a partition?20:00
Chadmanand ill be here, hopefully.20:00
wilee-nileescheidm, Try #vbox20:00
whatsyournamealso, i don't know anything about programming... does it get in my way of learning ubuntu?20:00
wilee-nileeif you are running virtualbox scheidm20:00
Kitt3nwhatsyourname, nope20:00
reisiowhatsyourname: nope, https://www.virtualbox.org/20:01
scheidmI'll happily try there too, but it seems like a general ubuntu issue. If you resize with GParted and reboot, it should update the partition size, no?20:01
whatsyournamelet me take a look20:01
wilee-nileescheidm, NOt in a vm20:01
Bico_FinoHello, any easy way to upgrade a ubuntu 08.10 to 13.04? :)20:01
jdelgadoAnyone have a hacky way to replace an init.d script while it is running20:02
reisioBico_Fino: install 13.04, done20:02
wilee-nileescheidm, a vm can be resized probably, however you have not even named the one you are using.20:02
xanguaBico_Fino: fastest would be a clean install20:02
reisiojdelgado: init.d scripts aren't like... dynamically continuously interpreted20:02
reisiojdelgado: they just execute and then sit around for next time they're executed20:02
k1l_Bico_Fino: you are quite late for that. you cant upgrade directly so i would do a new install20:02
Kitt3nBico_Fino, a clean install is better than updating20:02
Bico_Finowithout a clean install.20:02
jdelgadoreisio: Right, but I get an inuse error when I try to replace it.20:03
k1l_Bico_Fino: other way is to upgrade from 8.04 to 10.04 and then to 12.04 and then to 12.10 and then to 13.0420:03
Kitt3nBack up your data and install 13.0420:03
wilee-nileescheidm, If it is vbox all you have to do is bulid a new machine and use the vdi you have.20:03
jdelgadoreisio: Just making an auto-update script20:03
Bico_Finok1l_, yeah. I'm going try that. do-release-upgrade isn't working.20:03
reisiojdelgado: to what end?20:04
k1l_Bico_Fino: because you are late. 8.04 is out of support20:04
k1l_!eol | Bico_Fino20:04
ubottuBico_Fino: 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/EOLUpgrades20:04
jdelgadoreisio: Just a script that copies the updated init.d over the old, while the daemon is running.20:04
Bico_Finok1l_, ty.20:04
reisiojdelgado: right, but for what purpose20:04
jdelgadoreisio: For the purpose of... updating. The script has an array of node applications that it needs to run.20:05
whatsyournameif i run ubuntu on virtualbox, does it provide me with full functionality?20:05
jdelgadowhatsyourname: Yes20:06
reisiojdelgado: I don't follow, but if your init system won't let you replace the file, it is dumb20:06
wilee-nileewhatsyourname, Basically, however vbox has its own drivers, and be sure to install the guest additions.20:06
jdelgadoreisio: I agree20:06
AfflictoAnyone want to help me get my keyboard, trackpad & wireless working no a clean ubuntu install? I can pay you a few bucks lol I'm getting restless :P20:06

fabienne*utility20:09
ShadowBlaze18so, if Ubuntu has GPL3 software, do I need to give out source code to people or give them the license? Does Ubuntu automattically include the legal stuff, so I don't personally have to give them source code or give them the license?20:09
Chadmanare you here, an_ony_moose?20:09
reisioShadowBlaze18: that's if you're redistributing, and making modifications20:10
ShadowBlaze18well, I want to give away the CD with a computer I'm selling at a garge sale, reisio20:11
saiarcot895whatsyourname: Since you're running it in a VM, there's extra overhead since the VM has to pass on instructions to the CPU and hard drive.20:11
reisioShadowBlaze18: there are no special requirements for you to do that20:11
saiarcot895whatsyourname: this applies to any OS running in a VM20:11
hd5770apt-get remove fg;rx work :)20:11
Kitt3nhd5770, ?20:11
ShadowBlaze18reisio does that also apply with GPL3 software that comes with Ubuntu?20:11
whatsyournamesaiarcot895: what if my system config is very high-end?20:11
hd5770 apt-get remove fglrx work :20:12
Kitt3nhd5770, ah, okay! Well, just install it again now20:12

mojtabaHi, I am using ubuntu 13.04, but also I have installed KDE. Now the problem is that, I just once tried to use KDE accessible software. But now I can not get rid of it. (its symbol is blue circle with a white man with stretched arms.) Does anybody know how can I exit from it?20:12
reisioShadowBlaze18: the vast majority, yes20:12
Chadmanguys, guys.20:12
Chadmanreisio; please help.20:12
occi tried to install ubuntu and got an error: installer has encountered error, starting desktop session so you can investigate problem............ maybe because i deleted all partitions on my disk first..... do i need to create an empty partition first, an ext4?20:12
reisioShadowBlaze18: additionally, you will never get into legal trouble by giving something away for nothing20:12
reisioShadowBlaze18: it's selling free software that is tricky20:12
hd5770k20:12
ShadowBlaze18oh, okay20:12
ChadmanI installed webcamstudio thru a .deb file, but when I do 'modprobe webcamstudio', it gives me FATAL: Module webcamstudio not found, how can I fix this?20:12
hd5770not the amd beta ones ?20:12
ShadowBlaze18I was paranoid all this time that I broke the licenses, thank you reisio for answering my question20:13
reisioShadowBlaze18: unless you live in some horrible strange country and you give away like... highly illegal anti-/-encryption software20:13
reisioShadowBlaze18: which is unlikely20:13
Kitt3nhd5770, reinstall fglrx, then when you get into your computer, download the official AMD driver, uninstall fglrx, (DONT reboot) and install the official driver with "--force"20:13
mojtabaHi, I am using ubuntu 13.04, but also I have installed KDE. Now the problem is that, I just once tried to use KDE accessible software. But now I can not get rid of it. (its symbol is blue circle with a white man with stretched arms.) Does anybody know how can I exit from it? It just re-opens when I click on exit!!20:13
mojtabaPlease help20:13
Chadmanreisio, hd5770, ShadowBlaze18, Kitt3n, bekks, an_ony_moose, mojtaba, I installed webcamstudio thru a .deb file, but when I do 'modprobe webcamstudio', it gives me FATAL: Module webcamstudio not found, how can I fix this?20:13
reisioShadowBlaze18: GPL's purpose is basically to keep commercial organizations from making versions of GPL software that other people cannot hack (modify)20:13
reisioShadowBlaze18: and you are not a commercial organization :p20:13
Kitt3nChadman, I don't know how to fix that.20:14
mojtabaChadman: Sorry I do not know (I am a newbie)20:14
wilee-nileeAfflicto, Not much info on that unit on the web in general, did any of this work on the live cd?20:14
ShadowBlaze18oh, okay, thanks20:14
ChadmanKitt3n, like, why it's giving me "FATAL: cannot load module webcamstudio"20:14
ChadmanI installed webcamstudio.20:14
Chadmanbut it's giving me that error.20:14
hd5770Kitt3n, will try20:14
Chadmanany help?20:14
Kitt3nChadman, it can't find the module?20:14
reisioShadowBlaze18: it's obviously more technical than that, but that's the gist :p20:15
ChadmanKitt3n: yes, it says "module not found"20:15
mojtabaHi, I am using ubuntu 13.04, but also I have installed KDE. Now the problem is that, I just once tried to use KDE accessible software. But now I can not get rid of it. (its symbol is blue circle with a white man with stretched arms.) Does anybody know how can I exit from it? It just re-opens when I click on exit!!20:15
Kitt3nChadman, is it a program? If so, launch the program.20:15
zephyr28Is there a program will display all audio levels in real time?20:15
reisioShadowBlaze18: in any event even if you were a commercial organization, and someone cared to get upset with you, their first step would be to simply ask you to provide the source code20:15
saiarcot895whatsyourname: then there may be little overhead, but know there will still be overhead and a little slowdown20:15
jribzephyr28: pavucontrol?  Alsamixer?  Not sure what you want20:15
ChadmanKitt3n: I can launch the program, but the program says, "Cannot load webcamstudio module"20:16
whatsyournamesaiarcot895: i see20:16
ShadowBlaze18so reisio, I can just give the OS and the software that comes with it in the full version as is and not break licenses?20:16
Afflictowilee-nilee: I was able to boot into recovery mode and use the keyboard. I did something in the recovery which booted up ubuntu and then I was able to use wireless, trackpad & keyboard. But when I boot regularly that's when they dont' work.20:16
Kitt3nChadman, perhaps google the problem?20:16
zephyr28jrib: not to see volume levels.  I can't for the life of me think of what it's actually called... the bars that move up and down depending on the level of sound being pushed through that device/speaker.20:17
MikeRLHmm. If anyone's free can someone help me with a big issue I've run into with vino-server?20:17
reisioShadowBlaze18: yes indeed20:17
jribzephyr28: doesn't pavucontrol show you this?20:17
wilee-nileeAfflicto, Ah well that is a good sign, can you access additional drivers? i may need a update and upgrade or drivers.20:17
reisioShadowBlaze18: and again, _even if_ you actually technically violated a license, not a single person is going to care unless you are making money off of it20:17
zephyr28jrib: haven't tried it.  Will now.20:17
wilee-nileeAfflicto, and drivers rather20:18
ShadowBlaze18reisio: GPL3 has some requirements I noticed though, and the requirements are fulfilled in the OS?20:18
Chadman!google - Kitt3n20:18

Afflictowilee-nilee: I dno. I was able to do an apt-get update and after rebooting it didn't fix anything.20:18
reisioShadowBlaze18: they're fulfilled by Canonical20:18
zephyr28jrib: it shows what I'm looking for, but doesn't register anything coming in on the few devices it monitors.20:19

ShadowBlaze18okay, so no extra work for giving it away, that is all my questions, thank you, reisio20:19
wilee-nileeAfflicto, That just checks you also need apt-get upgrade preferably dist-upgrade20:19
reisioShadowBlaze18: you're totally fine :p20:19
ShadowBlaze18lol20:19

ShadowBlaze18reisio: yeah, the trademark usage rules, I think they are called20:25
reisioShadowBlaze18: trademarks are so you can't easily make another item that is in the same genre as the original, with the same or similar name20:25
reisiofor example Linux is trademarked, you can't make something else related to operating systems named 'Linux' without opening yourself up to potentially being sued20:25

ShadowBlaze18I know that20:27
reisioShadowBlaze18: if you were to confuse people about what that name entailed, then Canonical would have a trademark case against you20:27

MikeRLJust because it's supported doesn't mean it will work all the time. I would set up a temporary install of 13.04 and try that. Maybe you need updated X/drivers.20:32
=== konna39 is now known as konna38
jribidlemichael: what does your "ulimit -a" output look like?20:32
ripdiskwhy didn't the install just use the same x drivers it used when it booted from livecd? that doesnt make any sense to me.20:33
idlemichaeljrib: i think you're right actually -- the process that runs this script might not be using bash. if i preceed my script call with bash, instead of sh, it works20:33
Kitt3nripdisk, does the livecd WORK now?20:33
MikeRLSomething may be up with your install. I'm kind of a noob myself, but maybe an update borked something.20:33
jribidlemichael: the ulimit in dash seems to use -p instead of -u for process limit20:34

MikeRLMaybe it cannot handle 3d Unity. Does it work when you select "Try Ubuntu"?20:35

wilee-nileelive_high5, post the url of that.20:38
ShadowBlaze18reisio, and I'm guessing canonical means modified versions as in source code and not by adding a text or paint file in section 2?20:38
ripdiskmikeRL how do I do those steps if I can't boot into ubuntu20:38
scheidmreisio: it said it was unable to obtain a file lock. let me rerun it to give you the exact error20:38
MikeRLfrom the live cd20:38
MikeRLYou can get into the livecd, right?20:38
ripdiskoh ok20:40
ripdiskI didn't know things I did on the live cd would effect my install20:40
Afflictowilee-nilee: Ok so I found some proprietary AMD drivers only.20:40
MikeRLHmm. I cannot remember 100%, but I believe the live CD boots into either Unity 2d or Unity CD. No, it won't effect your install.20:40
Kitt3nripdisk, it does if you mount the hard drive and edit it the OS from the livecd.20:41
scheidmreisio: device or resource busy while trying to open /dev/sda5 Couldn't find valid filesystem superblock20:41

toshibai need to download a torrent file20:42
reisioShadowBlaze18: nope20:42
wilee-nileeAfflicto, Not at this point the term proprietary made me wonder if from amd straight, generally the drivers from the ubuntu repos are all you need, as they have been tweaked and checked to work.20:42
ripdiskso now....it sure will be cool if my wifi adapter works just from plugging it in.20:43
ShadowBlaze18reisio, okay thank you, sorry for all these questions20:43
reisioShadowBlaze18: it your right to sell any physical object that you rightfully own to someone else, in virtually any state in the world20:43

ripdiskMikeRL: well, I saw a post on an askubuntu link somebody pasted....and somebody had the same problem on a laptop with it flickerng but it stopped when they closed the lid and opened it....so I turned my monitor off and on, and it worked too.20:46
wilee-nileescheidm, Turn off the swap as well if on.20:46
ShadowBlaze18bye, thanks again, reisio20:46
ripdiskbut there are listed steps to make it to where I don't have to do that.20:46
MikeRLripdisk: What about the adapter?20:46
MikeRLripdisk: There are many results for Googling the issue. If one doesn't work, revert back.20:47
scheidmwilee: I used gparted to resize the partition itself, but the filesystem doesn't recognize the new available space20:47
ripdiskmikerl: the network adapter worked as soon as I plugged it in....it was like YO, WIFI NETWORKS DETECTED HOLMES.20:47
maddy__@reisio: sounds great :)20:47

MasterBobOkay. so I have a machine X whose DNS isn't working. X can SSH into Y. Y has internet access. I created an ssh tunnel on X to Y using " ssh -p $port -f -N user@Y -D 25000". I added the "Acquire::http::Proxy "http://localhost:25000" to a newly created /etc/apt/apt.conf.  Using apt-config dump confirms that the proxy was loaded. But whenever try and do apt-update, I get Connection Failure. Any thoughts?21:16

columbh00k, I don't have anything to put Floppy disc into.21:18
OerHekscolumb, that occurs when the floppy interface is enabled in the bios, even when no floppy drive is attached21:19
h00kcolumb: your BIOS must be reporting that you do, consider turning it off there, then it shouldn't show up when available21:19
wilee-nileeocc, Have you tried more than once since this has happened and included a reboot, I see that error on the web in numerous circumstances but no real answers.21:19
occyes this is the third time iv tried, rebooted 3 times too21:20
OerHekscolomb as it is a default setting, floppy enabled, check all other options in your bios too21:20
habstinatI want my menus to look normal; what problem does <http://i.imgur.com/bf9f04m.png> indicate? GTK3 theme problem?21:20
occi dont get it because the first time it installed and worked..... but then rebooted and manually deleted all the partitions, then i tried to install ubuntu again and it didnt work and i got the error, so i used an xp recovery disk to format and install xp and it installed and worked ok.... then i tried to install ubuntu again twice and got the error again21:21
OerHeksocc,  hdd is a SATA disk?21:22
occyyeh a sata. fairly old21:22
occ100gb21:23
OerHeksXP needs a bios setting AHCI to ide mode, linux needs native AHCI21:23
OerHeksThis is to avoid loading sata interfce drivers in XP21:23
ximianOerHerks: Linux shoult work in IDE mode21:23

gordonjcpAfflicto: have you got an exact model number?21:46

usercheck_gordonjcp, that you mean "router broadband" in my computer?21:47
withnale_I want to be able to select from a list of all of my playlists when I sync. Banshee only allows you to sync from one playlist, and you have to do some magic with smart playlists to get more than one on the device21:47
reisiosyncing is kind of silly TBH21:48
withnale_clementine looked good for a sec, but I'm thinking I might have to end up with songbird.21:48

ripdiskwhat would cause my system to completely skip grub22:09
xanguaripdisk: is ubuntu the only OS installed¿22:09
MikeRLtannji: The flicker or the vino issues?22:09
gordonjcpMikeRL: but if it's a vino-server issue, then presumably that's a server issue with it running on Windows and not really an Ubuntu problem22:09
ripdiskyes22:09
xanguaripdisk: just keep Shif pressed when it boots :)22:10
MikeRLgordonjcp: The other computer is running Ubuntu.22:10
gordonjcpMikeRL: also, it's vino running on a *compromised system* so all bets are off22:10

xanguaShift * ripdisk22:10
tannjiMikeRL,  my bad, was talking to kurugah_22:10
gordonjcpMikeRL: so if it's running Ubuntu, why do you need vino?22:10
Afflictogordonjcp: PHP basically. I like frontend stuff too. working on a CSS & jQuery framework atm :P22:11
MikeRLOh, no. The computer I want to connect to runs 7. I've tested VNC on both my Ubuntu installs, ie connecting the laptop to desktop, both running Ubuntu. But it was a massive convenience to connect to the desktop.22:11
MikeRLvino is the default server.22:11
MikeRLfor vnc.22:11
gordonjcpAfflicto: well you should be able to pretty much replicate your server on your laptop, which makes testing dead easy22:11

ripdiskok, I have tried EVERYTHING i can find on google....and no matter what, the live cd works PERFECTLY and yet when i try to boot, it just flickers.22:14

wluijbenWas using wrong settings in pen drive installer.22:15
tannjikurugah_,   have you tried going to bios and shutting off the native screen and forcing hdmi?22:15
MikeRLgordonjcp: Can you make any sense of the error on my bug report? If not does anyone work with vino and can patch this eventually?22:15

gordonjcpMikeRL: what happens if you delete the directory containing the vino settings in your homedir?22:19
MikeRLWhere is that?22:19
MikeRLI've tried deleting any vino folder. But I may have missed somethin.22:20
gordonjcpit would be in your homedir if it was anywhere22:20
MikeRLgordonjcp: Vinagre settings, but nada for Vino.22:21
gordonjcpMikeRL: that looks like a perfectly okay bug report, and contains something that would point me at where to look if I was going to debug it22:21
gordonjcpMikeRL: so someone who actually knows how vino is supposed to work might well be able to make use of that22:21

occok pragmaticenigma, i am now in ubuntu.12.installer partitioning tool(something else) option...... i see at the top: /dev/sda , then inside/below that: /dev/sda1 ext4 (97883mb) and /dev/sda5 swap (2144mb) . is this what i should be seeing?23:26
aldAnyone recognise my video card, graphic..  http://paste.ubuntu.com/5838886/  ????23:26
doug_where does my iphone get mounted when I select open in dolphin when I plug it in?23:26
pragmaticenigmaald: Your computer is not powerful enough to playback highdefinition video23:26
aldwhy, please explain me, shortly23:27
pragmaticenigmaocc: that is normal23:27
aldBut in youtube i see hd video, pragmaticenigma23:27
pragmaticenigmaald: It just isn't powerful enough to do it.  YouTube automatically adjusts the video playback according to the capabilities of your computer23:27
wilee-nileeocc, Can you open gparted and hit prtsc and imagebin the screenshot?23:28
aldYes, but i decide to see somthing in 1080p hd and i see that is very very good quality, so... pragmaticenigma23:28
occdo i need to make a boot dvd with gparted on it?23:28
wilee-nileeocc, gparted is on the live cd23:29
occoh wait.... yeh ill try that.... i forgot about live cd23:29
wilee-nileeocc, You are trying to install 12.04 right?23:29
pragmaticenigmaald: it's not possible.  even if YouTube is setup to playback 1080p it's not unless your attempting to view the video full screen.  if the video is "windowed" it's playing back at the given resolution the video windows is given to display23:31
uhelppragmaticenigma: I think the answer is here: https://code.google.com/p/pulseaudio/source/browse/src/pulsecore/protocol-native.c?r=666261ece8cfa9b5458a1c1358b7ae4b9682b6a5   .....  groan23:31
occyeh trying to install 12.04.... im doing the gparted thing now too23:32
wilee-nileecool23:32
pragmaticenigmauhelp: yeah, it's not an easy thing to do23:32
aldpragmaticenigma i have the prove because if i put 1080 my connection is bad and is difficult sometime see video for may broadband23:32
aldand i tried also, pragmaticenigma to download taht videos and see23:33
aldthe problem, i thing is format .mov23:33
pragmaticenigmaald, it has nothing to do with the video.  your computer hardware is not capable of handling the 1080p playback.  there isn't anything more to it23:33
doug_where does my iphone get mounted when I select open in dolphin when I plug it in?23:33
aldbut 1080 in mpeg4 i see fantastic way, why, pragmaticenigma?23:35
pragmaticenigmaald: I don't have an answer.  No one here will have an explanation23:36
aldbut, do you recognize that is strange, or not???23:36

zxi just want to build zfs ko on 13.10 which builds fine on 13.0423:51
pragmaticenigmazx, your running a beta version of ubuntu, many things will not work23:52
