It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info [00:06] It looks like swappiness is determined for the whole system. Can I change it for a specific (Java) application? [00:06] swappiness on my system is set to 60 [00:06] SudoAptitude: i did that a long time ago for something audio related, and i cant find that now [00:06] SudoAptitude: AFAIK, you can, but im not sure === The is now known as Guest61650 [00:07] Thanks :) Now I know there is a solution and I am sure someone posted it on the interwebs somewhere *searching* [00:10] mnemon, apache2 [00:10] how i can place newline for output in init script, log_daemon_msg "Starting the process" "$NAME" [00:10] iptables_classiffy() [00:11] between log_daemon_msg printing and some function there aren't newline break [00:11] f00bar80: you need to have the follow symlinks enabled and a directory directive for the actual directory [00:11] mnemon, how to do so, any guide?

[00:24] danes, When was the last time you ran a chkdsk on that partition? [00:24] wilee-nilee: I have no idea... [00:25] danes, If it is not mountable that would be my first thought. [00:25] wilee-nilee: can I do anything from linux? [00:26] danes is it a normal ntfs partition? [00:26] danes, Not a chkdsk, and fdsk is not advised in general. This is my approach though, there may be others, I have W8 so can run tests in windows if needed. [00:27] danes: There is an ntfsfix program, but personally I'd scan it in Windows === vivi is now known as vivisaji [00:33] what is Whoopsie and it is necessary?

[00:34] it's currently in the middle of it [00:34] :p [00:34] Maple__, it will probably be fine [00:35] 'kay, thanks. Just checking. :P [00:35] just update after you upgrade :) [00:35] Also, second question. [00:35] Maple__: do you mean apt-get update & upgrade? [00:44] hey [00:45] herro [00:46] hey salut [00:47] hello [00:47] :) [00:47] i need some mailserver that can encrypt mail locally [00:48] was thinking about getting a very cheap vps running linux for just that [00:49] but whats important is that mail is encrypted locally [00:49] suggestions? [00:50] hi guys - I have just set up a test server running ubuntu server 13, but can not run the gui, any ideas? [00:51] prgCoder: what is the problem with the gui? [00:51] (error messages etc.) [00:51] gui - Graphical User Interface [00:51] yes ... [00:51] I tried to start it with "startx [00:52] did you install it first? [00:52] yep [00:52] ubuntu-desktop? [00:52] server [00:52] yes I want the desktop [00:52] prgCoder: the package ubuntu-desktop [00:52] not the distribution [00:53] ^ [00:53] that said.. if you want a gui why did you not just install normal ubuntu [00:53] the only difference for server really is that it doesn't install the gui [00:53] sorry - I want the server version - I want to set up a web server [00:54] you just said you want a gui [00:54] nevyn: i think it installs quite a few additional packages too? ... haven't tried installing ubuntu-desktop on server lately though [00:54] but I want to configure the settings thru the gui [00:54] mnemon: it installs many many packages. [00:54] prgCoder: what software do you imagine configuring in a gui? [00:54] related to the task of a web server? [00:55] yeah ... but there used to be a difference between normal installation and just installing ubuntu-desktop on top of server installation. [00:56] prgCoder: the only configuring you'll be doing in gui for the webserver is graphical text-editor unless you install some panel software [00:56] so you could just use one locally and the upload the config files to the server [00:56] and even panel software is mostly web based. [00:56] isn't it? [00:56] yeah [00:56] (the "GUI" would be web interface) [00:56] Hey [00:57] hello [00:57] How are you? :) [00:57] !hi [00:57] slightly drunk, and good :> [00:57] lol [00:57] Could I ask some opinions? :D [00:58] hey thanks guys [00:58] Axelay: i would use the offtopic channel and go for it [00:58] 1st rule of irc, don't ask to ask. [00:58] nevyn: thanks [00:58] just ask. [00:58] mnemon: thanks [00:58] Ok, Ubuntu doesnt seem to recognise my webcam [00:58] prgCoder: np [00:58] And I need it to work for my program [00:59] The question is rather ubuntu based, hence why I came here :) [00:59] Axelay: opinions are not, which is why i suggested OT.. if its relevant, go for it [00:59] Axelay: i think the overall consensus is.. ask if you are going to [01:00] What I'm trying to get to work is a V4l2 camera, My program uses my webcam and takes images from it [01:00] my problem was that I am use to another distro providing a desktop interface even though the server version was installed [01:00] This worked with the LTS ubuntu [01:00] I upgraded twice to the newest ubuntu [01:00] Axelay: the LTS is still supported [01:01] And now it doesnt regognize the webcam at all [01:01] prgCoder: if you want a GUI on the server you could just install ubuntu-desktop or one of the variants(xubuntu, kubuntu etc.) [01:01] then some remote access program(or use X remoting if in lan ...) [01:02] What I don't understand is do I have to manually install V4l2 drivers? === _BJFreeman is now known as BJfreeman [01:02] I can get cheese to recognize the webcam, but the software doesnt, yet it did on the latest :TS [01:02] on the latest LTS* [01:03] mnemon: thanks again - I will iinvestigate [01:03] Axelay: so the system is seeing it then. what application is not? vlc? [01:03] Its a dissertation project [01:04] prgCoder: np [01:04] I'm using a 3rd party software package called imalib which handles the webcam software, and stuff [01:04] And when I ran it on the LTS it recognised my webcam fine [01:04] Axelay: if i works with applications in ubuntu, then the issue is potentially with the other 'stuff" [01:04] Axelay: the LTS is still supported [01:05] Recently I've updated ubuntu to the latest and it cannot detect the webcam [01:05] Oh [01:05] :\ [01:05] Bugger. [01:05] Axelay: could be the "stuff" you are using supports the LTS, and not 13.04 [01:05] The software i'm using uses the V4l2 interface. [01:05] Axelay: i literally have no idea.. but if you are seeing the cam in cheese, ubuntu is working [01:05] Axelay: i'd look at the paragraph 3.1 & 3.2 in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam [01:05] Axelay: you should ask the maintainers of whatever software you are using [01:06] I supposed that, but I didnt want to annoy him :P [01:06] lol [01:06] And Wanted to ask if it was my stupidity with ubuntu [01:07] If its because I need LTS, how hard will it be to downgrade? [01:07] Axelay: you might need to specify which device to use in the software ... somewhat common issue with some hardware + linux. [01:07] The software uses a config file [01:07] Which is made during installation [01:07] Axelay: does the config file specify which device is your webcam? [01:08] Axelay: you dont downgrade.. you fresh install.. its quite easy [01:08] (/dev/videoX)? [01:08] Nope, it just specificies picasso, v4l2 etc [01:08] !downgrade | Axelay [01:08] Axelay: Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported and may break your system. [01:08] Axelay: which software? [01:09] It's called imalib. It manipulates images and calculates the euclidean distance and stuff [01:09] also, do you have /dev/video devices? [01:09] Yes [01:10] Axelay: perhaps the software is addressing the camera by a location that is no longer present in a newer version. A symlink would be able to resolve this if you knew what it was looking for. [01:10] I don't know what a symlink is lol [01:10] What is odd that it worked fine in the latest LTS [01:10] howto install tdom? [01:10] apt-get install tdom?

[01:12] Nope lol [01:12] kk :) [01:12] Axelay: File a bug with the author [01:12] can you ask the developer for help? [01:13] I'm doing that tomorrow lol [01:13] i'd also check the config file for any references to the device [01:13] + any additional documentation [01:13] But I thought I'd ask if it was something easy I could do [01:13] Done that mnemon [01:13] kk [01:14] Is there any V4l2 drivers available that are not delivered with the new ubuntu versions?

When gParted modifies ntfs partition (resize), will it set it to chkdsk on next boot with Windows? If not, should I be worried if windows (7) wants to check the disk/ [03:19] ? [03:21] hey [03:22] i want to write raspbian image file to an sd card [03:22] I have a seriours problem [03:22] global menus not working in ANY program [03:22] and im on a nearly fresh install of 12.04 [03:22] may i just install my steam? [03:23] i dont want to sign up right now ubuntu 1 account [03:24] sorry [03:24] i already own all linux games i think [03:24] how may install steam without 'ubuntu 1?'?? [03:24] please anyone [03:24] whatever it is/called [03:25] LucidDreamZzZ, shouldn't you be able to? [03:25] zero_coder: Try this: http://is.gd/GKZ9xI [03:25] Jagst3r15, give me like 15 minutes and I will attempt to help you. [03:25] k [03:26] there is only 'buy' button i zallready own a unch of games [03:26] sorry annoying [03:28] LucidDreamZzZ, how did you install steam? [03:29] nevermind i fixed thx [03:29] Jagst3r15, Okay, first things first. Did this happen after a update? Did it work in live cd? any graphics drivers? [03:29] nothing [03:29] I have installed a few ppas [03:29] maybe that has messed it up === 65MAAMQOV is now known as el3ctron [03:30] Jagst3r15, Any packages which might play around with that stuff? Say, theminng or the like? [03:30] no :( [03:30] Hm, it worked on livecd? [03:30] yes [03:30] Are you using "Ubuntu" desktop or "Ubuntu-2d"? [03:30] regular [03:31] 12.04 [03:31] what package handles global menus [03:31] Help, I cannot get qemu to use qemu-system-x86_64 as my cpu type for my VM [03:31] Regular depends on system, but should I assume the 3d unity then? [03:31] yes [03:32] Jagst3r15, have you tested to see if they work in the 2d version perhaps? [03:32] let me check [03:32] brb [03:32] Hi all. I installed Ubuntu 13.04 on an iMac (8,1) but I can't boot from CD/USB now. I'm not sure if I overwrote the boot sector (?) or if the problem is that I only have a wireless keyboard that might not be recognized soon enough for me to press C or Option. Is there a way to tell the OS to boot from CD next time? Maybe via a command in the terminal? In Mac OS X there's an option in the Pref Pane for this. Is there anything similar in Ubuntu? [03:32] seriously i am making 'Ubuntu 1' account [03:32] another goddam password to remember [03:32] LucidDreamZzZ, is that really required by Steam for Steam on Linux? O.o? [03:33] i dont think so i ran it in slack no prob [03:33] Where did you get Steam binaries from? [03:33] t5hat why i ask [03:33] the wa=hat? [03:34] (Steam or a PPA/Ubuntu) ...how did you install Steam, specifically drilling down as to where you got it from? [03:34] sorry this kb is 2ft above head === dziegler_off is now known as dziegler === ag_ is now known as Bayangan [03:34] !enter | LucidDreamZzZ [03:34] LucidDreamZzZ: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line. Don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! [03:34] hmm not sure it on desktop [03:35] i missed apt too much ;p [03:35] LucidDreamZzZ, if you got it from some place other than steam (be it PPA or from regular Ubuntu package tree), I would recommend you try getting it from Steam proper to see if that makes a difference (make sure to fully uninstall the other version first!). [03:35] no luck in 2D [03:35] cipherboy [03:35] Jagst3r15, Okay, package is hud. [03:35] how do I install? [03:36] !info hud | cipherboy, Jagst3r15 [03:36] cipherboy, Jagst3r15: hud (source: hud): Backend for the Unity HUD. In component main, is optional. Version 13.04.0daily13.04.03-0ubuntu1 (raring), package size 37 kB, installed size 156 kB [03:36] Jagst3r15, iirc, should be installed by default though... Quoting the package info "Unity HUD is a heads-up-display interface for controlling the behavior of [03:36] applications as well as Unity via typed-in commands. It provides access to [03:36] all applications menu via a single central interface, in order to simplify [03:36] application usage and make menus more accessible." [03:37] Jagst3r15, try a reinstall of the package if it is installed, else install it. [03:39] cipherboy i am not sure how to reinstall [03:39] Jagst3r15, if you want graphical open Synaptic (make sure you run with sudo/gksudo, eg, prompts for password) and search for package, then right click and hit re-install. [03:39] ...Assuming Synaptic is installed these days. [03:40] Jagst3r15, Else from terminal: sudo apt-get install --reinstall hud [03:40] sudo apt-get install --reinstall hud [03:41] Yep [03:41] E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable) E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?

Done E: Unable to locate package hud === IsoAnon is now known as Isolol [03:43] Jagst3r15, Odd... `dpkg --list | grep hud`? [03:43] run this: dpkg --list | grep hud ? [03:43] (no backticks. dpkg --list shows packages, grep allows you to filter, in this case, we want to find the packages which contain hud [03:43] Yep, sorry) [03:43] nothing came up === dziegler is now known as dziegler_off [03:44] try apt-get update [03:44] Ah, good idea, but perhaps he needs to upgrade too to pull in the package...simply updating caches won't do much. [03:45] should i just upgrade to 12.10? [03:45] true [03:46] Jagst3r15, the 12.04 LTS is quite fine depending on what you want. It will (supposedly, not on it any more) be the most stable, and supported for quite a while. Personally though, I like to get one thing working before I go and upgrade to the next version. Up to you what you want to do as it is your system; we are just here to give advice on possible routes to solve problems you come to us with. [03:46] Are the LTS versions of Ubuntu much more stable? [03:47] cipherboy i was trying to get libreoffice 4.0 and messed up a few things I think [03:47] maybe that screwed something up [03:47] Jagst3r15, just delete lock file and update the repository [03:47] Jagst3r15, If from a ppa you can use ppa-purge [03:48] netlarip, stable == supported longer, and yes, they put more work into fixing existing bugs than pushing new features (supposedly from what I have heard...don't actually track LTS/vs non differences much) [03:48] sorry not Jagst3r15 but cipherboy [03:48] :) [03:49] how do I use ppa-purge === Nothing_Much_ is now known as Nothing_Much [03:49] I am on 13.04 and I just have these misc things go wrong, just wondered if that was because it is not a LTS version [03:50] misc? [03:50] Errors [03:50] Jagst3r15, sorry, not familiar, ask wilee-nilee [03:50] Screen freezes [03:51] Jagst3r15, sudo ppa-purge ppa:/ e.g. sudo ppa-purge ppa:ubuntu-mozilla-daily/ppa [03:51] !ppa-purge [03:51] To disable a PPA from your sources and revert your packages back to default Ubuntu packages, install ppa-purge and use the command: « sudo ppa-purge ppa:/ » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html [03:51] ^ Jagst3r15 [03:51] thanks sir [03:51] you're welcome [03:51] Not a deal breaker, just wondered [03:52] netlarip, Using ubuntu since 6.04, never found any more stable than another. [03:53] well if anyone else runs into the issue of qemu not recognising x64 ability, run qemu-system-x86_64 as the command, not just qemu, and not qemu-x86_64 [03:53] I have read that lightdm has some conflicts , not sure [03:53] I feel like non LTS releases are more or less high quality betas for the next LTS [03:53] netlarip: that could be the particular kernel and your hardware... could be the drivers for your graphics card [03:53] netlarip: if 12.04 works "better", i would use it [03:54] netlarip: the issues can, and most likely are specific to your hardware.. not everyone [03:54] holstein: Yea maybe I am on open source VGA driver [03:54] netlarip: to answer the question i think you are asking, 13.04 is not freezing on everone's screen. its just you, or your hardware, or your config [03:55] Think the mesa driver is still a work in progress [03:55] Sorry guys, have to drop. [03:55] c ya [03:56] anyone else know why my gloabl menus are not working? [03:56] Jagst3r15, if somebody can't help you here, find me online in say, 10 hours or so and I might be able to help then. [03:56] k [03:56] I purged the ppa with libreoffice 4 and no luck [03:56] hi, I have and Ubuntu desktop and I want to run it as a Server, in other words, I want run the ubuntu in lets say tty1 every time thats possible? [03:56] hi, I have and Ubuntu desktop and I want to run it as a Server, in other words, I want run the ubuntu in lets say tty1 every time thats possible? [03:57] I have read Mesa 9.1.3 is still being worked on and may still be buggy [03:57] matheus, remove lightdm perhaps. [03:57] hi, I have and Ubuntu desktop and I want to run it as a Server, in other words, I want run the ubuntu in lets say tty1 every time thats possible? [03:57] hi, I have and Ubuntu desktop and I want to run it as a Server, in other words, I want run the ubuntu in lets say tty1 every time thats possibles? [03:57] matheus: That's enough. [03:58] !mesa [03:58] holstein: Huh? [03:58] sorry for the multiples messages, I didn't see them. [03:58] !ati | netlarip [03:58] netlarip: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto [03:58] netlarip: try the propietary ones [03:59] cipherboy: only that and I can solve the problem? [03:59] holstein: I heard it is better to use open source drivers [03:59] if i encrypt a file and upload it to ubuntu one, can i retrive and read the file in another pc, or another system? [04:00] matheus: Although you've asked 3 & 1/2 times now, you're still going to have to re-ask but in a different way, (so that we can understand what your question really is). [04:01] matheus: Are you wanting to say that you want text only? (Console mode only?) [04:01] usr13, yes [04:01] netlarip: "better" is a matter of opinion, and if your desktop is freezing, and the proprietary one 'works'.. i know what my opinion would be [04:02] netlarip: if you want to run open drivers, i would try and plan for that at the time of purchase [04:02] usr13, GUI consome RAM,gpu,etc... So I only need console [04:02] matheus: Highly irregular. Haven't seen this question before. But, probably just need to uninstall ubuntu-desktop. [04:03] holstein: Yea made a mistake on the VGA card purchase [04:03] !info ubuntu-desktop | matheus [04:03] matheus: ubuntu-desktop (source: ubuntu-meta): The Ubuntu desktop system. In component main, is optional. Version 1.299 (raring), package size 3 kB, installed size 58 kB [04:03] netlarip: you can always use the vesa driver.. its open [04:03] usr13, thats the problem. I'm planning to buy my cubieboard, and it doesn't has ubuntu 12.04 server, only desktop [04:04] lauratika, I use truecrypt across OS's. [04:04] matheus: Probably other stuff as well, (in order to stip down to just a server system), but that's a start. [04:04] holstein: Not even sure the best VGA card is for linux [04:04] ubottu, thats the problem. I'm planning to buy my cubieboard, and it doesn't has ubuntu 12.04 server, only desktop [04:04] matheus: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [04:04] affffffffffffff [04:05] but i want to encrypt a file and upload it on ubuntu one, but i wonder if pc dies if i will be able to retrive the file again? [04:05] hi, how can i create a windows7 live usb from ubuntu [04:05] matheus: I don't know what "cubieboard" is, so maybe someone else can be of assistance. [04:05] netlarip: "best" is a matter of opinion, and use case. i like intel, since i dont game and the open drivers are usually great [04:05] usr13, its an ARM based computer [04:05] O [04:05] lauratika, You just need a standalone encryption I would think that will read it with your pass. [04:05] usr13, like raspberry pi [04:05] holstein: Intel VGA cards? [04:06] will dd work [04:06] ? [04:06] netlarip: there are no intel add on vga cards that im aware of [04:06] !arm | matheus [04:06] matheus: ARM is a specific (RISC) processor architecture used in a variety of applications such as handhelds and networkdevices. For more information see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM . For ARM specific support, stop by the #ubuntu-arm channel. [04:06] usr13, but with more CPU and RAM [04:06] holstein: Is there a list of compatible VGA cards? [04:07] netlarip: therefore, you are either using the proprietary ones, which have their own issues, or taking a chance with the open ones. or vesa [04:07] netlarip: sure.. but it changes [04:07] netlarip: what do i do? get the *actual* hardware and run the os on it.. and test [04:07] so i just need to have the key on the other pc? [04:07] netlarip: save my reciepts.. as you are seeing, 12.04 worked fine for you, and 13.04 not so much [04:07] can i create windows7 usb from unetbootin [04:07] ? [04:07] holstein: guess that is what I am doing [04:07] wilee-nilee: lets say my HD dies, will i be able to retrive the file. [04:08] thunder1212: if mircosoft allows the creation of a USB for that purpose.. nothing about unetbootin wil prevent that [04:08] holstein: Do I need to reinstall if I try another VGA card? [04:08] thunder1212: i would look at http://www.webupd8.org/2012/01/tool-to-create-windows-usb-install.html [04:09] lauratika, From where, you describe a file encrypted that you can upload and open again, failed HD are a whole other issue. [04:09] netlarip: the drivers are modular.. if you have a proprietary driver installed, i would remove it, and go back to stock, and the new/different card should be pickedup automatically [04:09] netlarip: what would i do? change the card and boot a live CD to test [04:09] holstein: http://www.webupd8.org/2010/10/create-bootable-windows-7-usb-drive.html will this work? [04:09] thunder1212: i dont know.. i dont use windows [04:10] thunder1212: but, its worth a try [04:10] holstein: So there is no list for cards that work well with linux? [04:10] i upload to ubuntu one the encrypted file (as i state before) then my HD dies, in another pc i download this file, will i be able in the new or the other pc to read this file?... what i need in order to read the file again. [04:10] netlarip: sure.. but what do you do if its wrong? [04:10] netlarip: there are no gurantees [04:11] netlarip: if i wanted guranteed to work hardware, i would purchase from system76 or similar [04:11] holstein: As you say keep the receipt [04:11] netlarip: thats what i do [04:11] holstein: I built my own system [04:12] netlarip: im a audio guy, and i used to read about audio devices working... but, you know, *i* have to be able to make it work.. and i have to be willing to make it work, and each time i want to install [04:12] lauratika, If you have a encryption that does allows a app to open it, I could do this with truecrypt on the file I have, not the only app that does this. === pi_ is now known as KrzPi [04:12] holstein: Thanks [04:12] netlarip: and, i read "this work", and it doesnt with a certain kernel.. or whatever.. its not anyones "fault" but the manufacturer. im just saying, dont trust a list explicitly [04:13] again what i need in oreder to have an encrypted file uploaded to ubuntu one, this does not include truecrypt, to be able to read it again in another pc? [04:13] lauratika, You might check on types of encryption that will fit your needs, but yes the file can be accessed using the right app. [04:13] holstein: But if a card worked in an older kernel version should work in future ones right [04:14] Hi [04:14] netlarip: why? [04:14] I have likewise-open application which is an authentication system for Windows AD and I am trying to configure ringswitcher. Does likewise-open support it? [04:14] netlarip: what if something changes that breaks that? as you are experiening? [04:14] experiencing* [04:14] holstein: Just a little frustrating [04:14] netlarip: i mean, with linux, you *always* get a full money back refund.. but you get no guarantees of support. those should come from the manufacturers [04:15] netlarip: sure.. thats what i suggested handing that off to a 3rd party, like in windows.. like with system76 [04:15] !encryption [04:15] For information on setting up encrypted private directories (8.10+) see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedPrivateDirectory [04:15] they are paid to make sure you have hardware support [04:15] netlarip: otherwise, its just the community doing what they can with a device that may or may not even be able to be supported [04:16] Hello by looking at this http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/precise-backports/ , I found there is no file named "InRelease" , so thats why i failed at update , why are ubuntu changing InRelease to Release [04:16] netlarip: and, that is getting better all the time, but if you want nvidia or ati, you need to be "flexible" on using closed source rivers [04:16] drivers* [04:16] holstein: Guess I made a mistake making my own system [04:16] netlarip: yeah? [04:16] netlarip: AFAIK, you havent tried the proprietary drivers [04:17] netlarip: you made a mistake assuming an open driver would support a close proprietary device [04:17] holstein: Never had luck with them in the past [04:17] netlarip: have you tried it? [04:17] netlarip: i have had bad luck with computers and drivers [04:17] Not with this computer [04:18] netlarip: some work, some dont.. if you are having issues on an nvidia or ati card, the next step is to try the proprietary drivers [04:18] holstein: Plus I don't want to make my system unusable [04:18] netlarip: that is what i suggested before, and i still do, and anyone here will agree === Mayazcherquoi_ is now known as Mayzie === Mayzie is now known as Mayazcherquoi [04:18] netlarip: im suggesting that this will help. you came here with freezing [04:18] Hello by looking at this http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/precise-backports/ , I found there is no file named "InRelease" , so thats why i failed at update , why are ubuntu changing InRelease to Release [04:18] netlarip: its a blob.. you install, and test.. you can remove it [04:19] netlarip: if 12.04 worked better, its still supported [04:19] im running 12.04 right now [04:19] holstein: I can go back to open source driver? [04:19] netlarip: you can do whatever you want [04:19] guys i make a backup for the whole hard disk i intalled ubuntu on it using clonezill but now when i tried to restore it in virtualbox it stuck at 82% and now it takes about 1 hour ? any idea or is there any good program to make a backup for the whole system === andrew is now known as Guest70704 [04:19] HexChatUser, The channels asks for time frame of reposting about 10 min. [04:19] kelly: i use clonezilla [04:20] wilee-nilee: is that an answer for my question? if its not im going to ignore that [04:20] holstein: It works for the most part [04:20] holstein, could guide me how can i make a backup ? [04:20] netlarip: then, enjoy it.. otherwise, to address the freezing, instal an appropriate driver [04:20] !ati [04:20] For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto [04:20] holstein: Ok and thanks [04:20] maybe i did something wrong === Tacit_afk is now known as TacitBlue [04:21] kelly, This a clone from you computer not another vbox? [04:21] kelly: this is not really a clonezilla support venue, but i just followed the prompts [04:21] kelly: it could take a while in VM.. ive never resorted to VM like that [04:21] yes i make a backup for my system and save it to an external hard disk [04:22] kelly, Try #vbox you can't just insert that into a virtual. [04:22] i followed this video : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YzxL95GmmYk [04:23] there is a process I believe. [04:23] it should restore though, and then throw an error [04:25] that vid is from vm to vm, why they don't just use the vdi in a bigger container is a mystery here. [04:25] holstein: cant i use dd? [04:26] thunder1212: if microsoft allows that, but its not our iso, friend.. you have to ask microsoft how to boot he product they create [04:27] thunder1212: i would try the tool i linked [04:29] thunder1212, I do an extract to a ntfs with a bootflag or the multisystem app at pendrivelinux. [04:30] wilee-nilee: i am on ubuntu [04:30] thunder1212, Me to.

[04:32] Pendrivelinux would be the way to go, as it has been said [04:32] lolcat: not for me!! [04:32] thunder1212: that is the tool i have been asking about, friend.. have you tried it? [04:32] Pendrivelinux's app is actually pretty straight forward [04:37] Hello by looking at this http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/precise-backports/ , I found there is no file named "InRelease" , so thats why i failed at update , why are ubuntu changing InRelease to Release [04:37] thunder1212, I am trying the tool from holstein's link seems to be loading a usb fine. [04:38] I just rebooted my system for the first time in about 6 months after applying the latest updates. Running 10.12, and now it boot cycles immediately after grub.

I have no error messages, or logs, or any idea where to go with this. I have run an fsck and everything looks good [04:38] running 12.10? [04:38] yes [04:39] that's what I meant [04:39] Quantal [04:39] just one older kernel? [04:39] several [04:39] choose the very first one [04:39] that's the one that reboots [04:39] Surye: the very last one, then [04:39] the oldest [04:40] it sits on that error on any other one [04:41] Surye: what error? [04:41] not error [04:41] Surye: what message? [04:41] It says building initrd image or something, I can check it when I reboot again here [04:41] on the livecd checking out some things [04:42] Surye: im about to leave, but im going to drop *exactly* whatever error you say into search and go from there [04:42] Surye: start by getting that exact message [04:42] okay, thanks [04:44] Hello by looking at this http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/precise-backports/ , I found there is no file named "InRelease" , so thats why i failed at update , why are ubuntu changing InRelease to Release [04:45] ok thank you for the video fixes, excellent Ubuntu [04:46] Evening all.

I didn't know if running cron as root was acceptable or not [04:49] jtreminio: i dont know if thats a sarcasm, but ubuntu does have root , just sudo with your primary user password [04:49] jtreminio: Just remember you have the "root" user running jobs. Are you sure you don't want to run it as your user with sudo rm -rf /tmp? [04:51] jtreminio: if you really want to do this, create a cronjob for root by 'sudo crontab -e' and make sure the job is rm -rf /tmp/* and not rm -rf /tmp [04:51] i am wondering if for Ubuntu or Linux, do i need to follow this idea of having to have a firewire port and a video capture card to get hd video onto my laptop? the certain camera have hd video like the go pro hero 2 and 3 where i can take a sd card out of the camera and then put into my card reader slot and tehn have the hd video on my pc for editing purposes that way? can app like Avidemux do this? [04:57] HexChatUser: no, I was serious. I don't know if running cron as root is something that happens often. [04:57] kboodu: wouldn't it require password or adding user to sudo files as nopassword? [04:58] what and how should i do ? resize partition ? i have got whole 750GB HDD with ext3 partition [04:58] #/dev/sdb1 2048 1465149167 732573560 83 Linux [04:58] jtreminio: Depends on how your system is setup. You can also add the command directly to the sudoers file (with your username). [04:59] jtreminio: Something like this in your sudoers file: tj pc023 = NOPASSWD: rm -rf /tmp/* [05:00] jtreminio: (Replace values as appropriate) [05:00] insGadget: the HD comes from the source.. as long as your computer can do the graphics part of it resolution, etc.. there are many programs to edit the videos depending on what you wanna do.. avidemux,handbrake,avconc [05:02] now i am on ubuntu 12.04 64bit i have some data on hard disk [05:02] sere: so I can take the sd card from the "whatever-camera" in this case a go pro hero 3 which is mp4 , and then it is technically still hd video on my pc? and i can edit it with these programs? I am not sure why this website is saying i need a video capture card to get the video from the "source" to my pc. so my question is , is the sd card or direct usb from this camera the same thing? [05:03] Hello by looking at this http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/precise-backports/ , I found there is no file named "InRelease" , so thats why i failed at update , why are ubuntu changing InRelease to Release [05:04] HexChatUser: What are you looking for specifically that you're looking for "InRelease?" [05:05] kboodu: https://fbcdn-sphotos-e-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/998539_381996445256046_1290543620_n.jpg [05:06] HexChatUser: You're not resolving us.archive.ubuntu.com. So it can't even find InRelease [05:08] HexChatUser: And that shouldn't be "InRelease" I don't think. I think it's just plain "Release" (as I can see the file) [05:08] insGadget: your video files are saved on the SD when you plug use the usb you are copying files from the over to the computer.. when you use the SD you are taking the source video files and mounting them from your computer.. from there you would probably need to demux to to edit or just rencode .. [05:08] from the SD [05:10] sere: all i want to do is, take a video from the camera, transfer that video to my pc, and then edit that video using one of those apps, and then upload that video to my website. is this possible if i have 8gb ram and i7 core then? [05:12] insGadget: yup [05:13] sere: roger that. [05:14] i think i should throw this mac out the window instead of attempting to install ubuntu on it :S [05:14] wireless networks arent even being detected on live cd [05:19] bluezone, lspci will tell you graphic info you need. [05:20] doh wireless [05:22] To install the binary video driver, I should do this from Addition Drivers right? I am on 13.04 === THE_BOULDER is now known as kaictl [05:28] Question.. I have an application installed via PlayOnLinux, which is located on my main hard drive. But I want that application to be able to download files to my second hard drive. But if I go to set the download location inside of the application, it can only see its WINE container. What can I do? [05:31] guys i want to make a backup for the whole hard disk in this picture what should i choose the the driver that i want to save a backupt on it or the driver i installed the ubuntu in it ? [05:31] http://i.imagebanana.com/img/uji56ygk/Screenshotfrom20130717083013.png [05:32] kelly: driver?! [05:32] kelly: Hardrive, ie drive. A driver is a piece of software [05:33] kelly: also that is the one you are storing it on [05:34] sorry i mean i want to make a backup for the whole hard disk in this picture what should i choose the the the hard disk that i want to save a backupt on it or the hard disk i installed the ubuntu in it ? [05:34] kelly: You choose the harddrive you wish to store the backup to. [05:35] thank you so much :) sorry for my english it is not my native language [05:35] Not mine either, but I take care to articulate me in a way that enables others to fully comprehend what I am trying to convey. [05:36] localhost, : should i format the harddrive i wish to store the backup into it ? [05:36] kelly: Uhm, that depends. What is currently on the harddrive you wish to store the backup on? [05:39] localhost, it sasy : partclone fail , [05:48] Does anybody know the local iit kharagpur repository address? [05:52] hi [05:53] when using LVM for /, do we have to put /boot on a separate partition? [05:57] 123 [05:57] ^_^ [05:57] hi [05:57] hmmmmmm, so, I've noticed my new laptop is getting hella slow wifi connectivity (5MBit or less of my 100MBit service). Where would I begin troubleshooting that? [06:01] topic [06:01] ubuntu support [06:01] I do not have a xorg.conf file, I only have a xorg.conf.failsafe file, is that a problem? [06:02] Just seems kind of strange to me [06:03] !xorg [06:03] The X Window system is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart X, type 'sudo /etc/init.d/lightdm' on an ubuntu system. replace with kdm on Kubuntu. To fix screen resolution or other X problems: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution . Also see !xorgconf [06:03] !xorgconf [06:03] The /etc/X11/xorg.conf file is deprecated, but sometimes may still be needed to pass values to specific drivers.

[06:09] subhojit777: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [06:10] Anyway, wish you guys would help [06:10] netlar: You don't need xorg.conf but you can put stuff in it if you want [06:11] netlar: What's your problem? [06:11] kboodu: I am trying to follow the instructions in installing the fglrx drivers [06:12] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI [06:12] And they talk about backing up the xorg.conf file and then [06:13] doing sudo aticonfig --initial [06:13] netlar: If you don't have an xorg.conf file, you can bypass that step. Most systems auto configure X for you. [06:14] kboodu: But I should to that aticonfig step right? [06:14] Yes. [06:14] netlar: The point of backing up the xorg.conf is IF you had special configuration, you would save it if something went wrong. [06:15] kboodu: Just concerns me a little since it says that it is creating a fresh xorg.conf file [06:15] when using LVM for /, do we have to put /boot on a separate partition? [06:15] netlar: Then you could restore it. [06:15] kboodu: I just had a xorg.conf.failsafe file [06:15] But I did back that up [06:15] netlar: It (the aticonfig) SHOULD generate a new xorg.conf so it loads the driver specific that the aticonfig will use. [06:16] netlar: That's ok that you backed it up, but it's unnecessary. [06:16] kboodu: But in the steps sound like you need to generate the new xorg.conf file yourself before rebooting [06:17] Nothing else should touch the "failsafe" version. (If nothing else, you can copy xorg.conf.failsafe to xorg.conf and reboot / restart X to get a "good" X configuration (with minimal effects) [06:17] netlar: the aticonfig will generate a xorg.conf file [06:17] netlar: err, SHOULD generate one. (I don't have that utility). [06:18] kboodu: It says to run sudo amdconfig --initial before rebooting [06:18] netlar: You should run the appropriate command in step 6 before rebooting. [06:19] Not sure if you should run aticonfig, amdconfig or which option. Might require a couple different runs to experiment and get a "good" version. [06:19] ok [06:19] netlar: You might have to reboot to a console to "fix" it if your first attempt doesn't work. [06:19] kboodu: that is what scares me a little, not sure if something goes wrong how to recover [06:21] netlar: Boot to a console only OR press to start a console session (you can do that now and switch back with ) [06:22] Ok, well here I go [06:22] netlar: Good Luck [06:23] hey one thing, when i try to start TF2 i am getting exact same error as before and google is no help [06:23] LucidDreamZzZ: What is TF2? [06:23] LucidDreamZzZ: And what error do you get? [06:23] Failed to create GL context. Using the latest ppa drivers on the current LTS with intel hd3000 [06:24] team fortress 2 [06:24] but i can play other HL game ok [06:24] hl2* [06:24] Should you sudo apt-get update & upgrade daily on an LTS, is it just better to not to any updates to keep your system more stable? [06:25] gxx depends i guess [06:25] if they are security/network related i would apply them [06:26] well how do you just apply the security/network ones without them all with update/upgrade? [06:26] gxx: Tjat [06:26] gxx: That's dependent on how update you want/need to be. [06:26] someone else knows better though im pretty sure you can just keep updating [06:26] LucidDreamZzZ: I'm seeing a message on teh steam community from Jul 11 about this [06:27] really?? [06:27] ok imma have a look [06:27] LucidDreamZzZ: I googled TF2 "failed to create gl context" [06:27] http://steamcommunity.com/app/221410/discussions/0/864973123149397753/ [06:27] yeah exactly [06:27] mainly on a system, that is a daily desktop, home-use, private network, that needs to be stable and not have problems [06:27] ok great thank you [06:27] That was first hit. There are others. ;) [06:28] gxx: It's all on how comfortable you are. I do frequent updates on my work laptop, home desktop and home servers (usually daily to a couple times a week). [06:28] So it's up to you.... [06:28] yeah.. ok i was hoping for something intel specific but may be a clue it has nothing to do [06:28] LucidDreamZzZ: But they seem to reference LTS 12.04.2 [06:29] * kboodu wonders if some patch is interfering with TF2. [06:29] I'm just worried that I'll end up doing an update/updrade one day and just have massive problems, making the system unstable, and requiring to reload the OS [06:29] gxx: which version are you upgrading [06:29] gxx: Hmm. That would be a pretty rare occurrence. You'd have had to have done something pretty unique to cause that I think [06:29] the LTS [06:30] 12.04 [06:30] I think I have a problem , I cannot run the aticonfig [06:30] gxx: yeah I am doing the same, [06:30] gxx: Standard systems are tested pretty carefully to ensure no impact occurs. [06:30] hey some guy in that exact post has intel graphics, so this might be help. kboodu thank you very much [06:30] LucidDreamZzZ: np. [06:30] kboodu: It did not create the xorg.conf file [06:30] gxx: LTS 10.04 to 12.04 with Alternate CD [06:30] I've just had problems after problems with 13.04 being unstable, people here said I had a hardware problem [06:30] netlar: Did you create it as root? [06:30] I did it as sudo [06:31] and no file was generated? hmmm. [06:31] but when I switch to linux mint LTS, everything was stable, and then switched to 12.04 ubuntu LTS [06:31] gxx: whats your upgrade method, do-release-upgrade? [06:31] gxx: Are you having a specific problem, or jsut asking the question? [06:31] They sent me to the the hadware channel, saying I might have a had ssd or motherboard issue, and from what I grathered, it wasn't a hardware problem, but 13.04 causing all the problems [06:31] kboodu: aticonfig: No supported adapters detected [06:32] just asking question [06:32] that is the message I go [06:32] got [06:32] on what will be the most stable [06:32] netlar: Maybe you don't have an ATI card. Did you try the amdconfig option? [06:32] kboodu: Yes both [06:32] I have an Radeon HD 7750 [06:32] Things I can do or not do (like updates) to keep my system stable, not asking for help about relating to problems, just giving examples [06:32] netlar: Waht about aticonfig ---adapter=all [06:33] kboodu: aticonfig: No supported adapters detected [06:33] gxx: Again, it's a matter of prference. Or you could hold off on installing an update and see if anyone in the community raises an issue. [06:34] i dont think this is Ubuntu bug [06:34] netlar...Is your video card supported for the drviers? [06:34] probably Valve [06:34] I have no idea kboodu === Jack is now known as Guest4320 [06:35] netlar: What version of Ubuntu again? [06:35] 13.04 [06:36] How likely, if I do no updates/upgrades from a fresh LTS install, am I really be at risk security wise of 'spryware' or being hacked on a home private network? [06:36] I have upgraded 10.04 to 12.04 (LTS), with Alternate CD, but it doesn't upgrade the kernel , is there any option in the cdrom upgrade to upgrade the kernel too. [06:36] i have just re-tried Mint 14 (last one i tried was identical to Ubuntu ... about the time of 9.04) [06:36] i am very impressed [06:36] how code it be? [06:37] try sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [06:37] it should upgrade your kernel [06:37] netlar: What driver did you want to use? Proprietary? [06:38] kboodu: How likely, if I do no updates/upgrades from a fresh LTS install, am I really be at risk security wise of 'spryware' or being hacked on a home private network? Such has a website with spyware or being hacked? [06:38] g0d1ess: But I am in need for offline upgrade, so seeking the way from the cdrom upgrade itself [06:38] kboodu: I want to use the open source, but been having some problems [06:38] i would put Mint on my old laptop but i cant get the dang thing to boot anything via USB (the internal cd/dvd drive is bad too) [06:38] gxx: That really depends on your usage. [06:38] kboodu: screen freezes , not often but it does [06:39] netlar: Screen freezes with Proprietary or Open Source? [06:39] kboodu: sometiems I get the low graphics message when I boot too [06:39] kboodu: with the open source [06:39] g0d1ess: any idea? [06:39] kboodu: could you give me examples of things I would do that could put me at risk, I mean, are people really wasting their time coding spyware on websites for ubuntu, or a hacker to waste time hacking a linux machine, when most people are using windows and are easier? [06:39] xmetal: Mint has its own support channels. [06:39] anyway of getting ubuntu 12.04 to boot and run via external HD? [06:40] netlar: Hmm. Sounds like it is an issue with that driver. [06:40] netlar: But not 100% positive. Searches are inconsistent regardign where the issue is. [06:40] FileAComplaint: it can work that way. [06:40] kboodu: Well I have read that Mesa is still a work in progress for that card [06:40] gxx: It depends on the websites you visit. [06:41] FileAComplaint: install same as to an internal hd. [06:41] no system is 100% secure and there are zero day exploits. You can go a couple of weeks without patching (maybe). You have to weigh risks [06:41] netlar: PM? [06:41] kboodu: zfs has NEVER had any zero day exploits [06:41] basic websites, no shady stuff really, I just have a hard time believing someone would code spyware for like 0.01% of computers that run linux, vs the 99% of computers running windows [06:41] Sure [06:42] gxx: Agreed [06:42] gxx: also it may work as a surprise attack [06:42] MSG daya download the newest kernel in www.kernel.org [06:43] gxx: general public used to think macs were really secure now they are less so, let's say steam + maybe a linux steammbox gets released then linux users increase = more potential targets [06:43] gxx: what's far more likely is that people write malware that runs in the browser [06:43] I think if I have a good firewall then I shouldn't have a problem, why types of firewalls are people running infront of ubuntu/linux computers? Are firewalls worth the effort for the seriuty advantages then just having linx with no firewall? [06:44] gxx: OpenWRT. :) [06:44] gxx: in general Linux computers connected directly to the Internet vastly outnumber Windows machines, and there doesn't seem to be a real problem [06:44] gxx: you don't need a firewall unless you're doing something deeply odd [06:45] gxx: are you running a server? [06:45] gordonjcp: yea I know most web servers are running linux/debian but they tend to have professionals that keep it safe [06:45] I'm not running a server outside of my lan, I have servers in my lan I play around with, but nothing anyone on the internet can connect to [06:46] gxx: Any firewall / router should add a good level of protection for you. It MAY NOT be necessary. But YOU have to weigh the risks [06:46] I have a few raspberry pies for sandboxes, and a few other older desktops, but nothing that I'm running on where users can connect [06:46] gxx: You dont need professionals [06:47] gxx: so if you're behind a NAT router - like any perfectly ordinary home broadband router - you do not need a firewall [06:47] gxx: at that, you don't need one on Windows either [06:47] gordonjcp: That is not true [06:47] lolcat: what's not true? [06:47] a NAT router offers virtually NO protection [06:47] lolcat: uhm [06:47] Consumer routers are usually full of poorley written outdated software [06:47] lolcat: you cannot see any device behind it from the Internet [06:48] Id strongly urge anyone using NAT to stop, and use proper routing and protectiong [06:48] lolcat: [citation needed] [06:48] gordonjcp: Security through obscurity [06:48] no, security through *not having a path to the target device* [06:48] it's pretty simple [06:48] I was thinking if its worth the money to build a router, get something with a ivy bridge celeron/ dual nics motherboard computer to run pfsence (whatever its called) as a router/firewall [06:49] gxx: overkill [06:49] gxx: what have you got lying around [06:49] gxx: the only advantage to using a modernish machine for that would be power consumption - get a wee 10W Atom board or something [06:50] Anything I have laying around uses too much power to run 24/7, I have two raspbery pis, but they only offer 100mb nic which is slow, plus they only have one nic [06:50] gxx: Ivy bridge on a router, that is SO silly [06:50] gxx: A second NIC can be added through USB [06:50] well, its a $80 motherboard, that has a celeron ivy bridge cpu, with dual nics [06:50] gxx: But now we're moving OT. [06:51] 100M ethernet is fine [06:51] yea, but the nics are only 100mb, I have a 30mb connection, and pretty sure it won't be able to handle the traffic or speed [06:51] Too bad the raspberry pi don't have better specs. :) [06:51] gxx: how fast is your Internet connection? [06:51] 30 [06:51] 35* [06:51] With downloads maxing at about 4.5mbs [06:51] gxx: so you don't actually need more than a 100M ethernet port, for the red interface... [06:52] the *real* problem with the Raspberry Pi is that its onboard ethernet is really a USB device, and it's slow as balls [06:53] We have a few users, maxing out our connection with gaming/downloads/etc alot of the time, and I think a raspberry pi will end up slowing down after a few hours of maxing out [06:53] What happens in Ubuntu when you start a program which takes more ram than what's available? [06:53] Lets stay on topic please [06:53] ! Swap [06:53] swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info [06:55] neo2: eventually you start to use more and more swap space on disk, and things slow down [06:55] gordonjcp: why would they design the rpi like that? did they not think having 3 usb io would cause bottlenecks? [06:56] neo2: when you've run out of RAM *and* swap space, something gets chosen to be taken out the back of the farm and shot. [06:56] ubottu, gordonjcp, my experience is things get frozen until many programs get evaporated and the desktop is flushed as well.. [06:56] aeon-ltd: cost, and part count [06:56] gordonjcp, how poetic :P [06:57] if i have an i7 processor and 8 gigs ddr3 ram [06:57] is swap file necessary? [06:57] not to mention a pretty beasty ATI radeon GPU [06:57] Guerrilla_: it's a good idea to have it [06:57] well i don't did i fail [06:57] just installed [06:58] Guerrilla_: you didn't set up a swap space? [06:58] Guerrilla_, allocate some 1GB swap... [06:58] is there a way to do that in lubuntu somewhere? [06:58] Guerrilla_: it's not trivially easy [06:58] Guerrilla_: you need to resize an existing partition to make some room, create a swap partition and add it [06:59] Guerrilla_: there's documentation on the wiki on how to do that though [06:59] should i add it to the root folder [06:59] i set my root, where i installed lubuntu to about 10gigs of space [06:59] no, it's a seperate partition and hasn't got a filesystem you can mount [06:59] hello [06:59] and then i have home folder [06:59] for the remainder [06:59] Guerrilla_: hah, you've got pretty near as much RAM as disk [07:00] Does ubuntu have curl by default? [07:00] Guerrilla_: don't worry about it for now. If stuff starts acting really weird, consider adding it [07:00] when i open the taks manager im not even using a whole gig of ram [07:00] i installed ubuntu an i have a question [07:00] so far im at 902MB of 7977 MB [07:00] tasos77: Ask your question [07:01] im thinking i'll be fine without it tbh [07:01] I normally use lie 400MB [07:01] like* [07:01] without a browser [07:01] Guerrilla_: I've got 4GB, about 0.5GB free and about 300k in swap [07:01] im streaming a two hour long video [07:01] my computer has 2 partitions [07:01] dammit chromium :P [07:01] later, all [07:01] gordonjcp, bye [07:01] the linux swap [07:01] gordonjcp: Later [07:01] and the ext4 [07:01] gordonjcp, he means never [07:02] (it's a trap) [07:02] i was under the impression that with 8 gigs of ddr3 i'll be fine with no swap file [07:02] i want to resize ext4 to create and one ntfs partition [07:02] Guerrilla_: You may be. Depends on what you run and how much RAM you're using (not buffers..those will be freed by the OS as needed) [07:03] can i do this? [07:03] cool [07:03] tasos77, you'll have to reboot into a LiveCD like ubuntu's installer [07:03] tasos77: using gparted [07:03] well im waiting for a game called shroud of the avatar [07:03] and something tells me that it wont even max my ram out [07:03] Guerrilla_, No hibernate is all and use. [07:03] when i start playing [07:03] wilee-nilee: +1 [07:03] yeah i don't hybernate [07:03] i just lock screen [07:09] tasos77, do NOT attempt this on a running system. thus the reason for a LIVE cd [07:10] can i use ubuntu iso disk??? [07:10] with the option try ubuntu [07:10] tasos77, yes. the LIVE cd [07:11] tasos77, You have to boot it, you can from grub if you have no discs or usb's === DaIRCKing is now known as GTAXL === AlertEye_ is now known as AlertEye [07:14] !netsplit [07:14] netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit [07:14] hello~~everyone~ [07:14] d [07:15] I can't connet to my PC with putty... [07:16] bazhand i asked if i can do this with ubuntu disc not the live cd [07:17] libin: you do have a ssh server installed? [07:17] tasos77: the ubuntu desktiop cd is a live cd. === dagjomar_ is now known as PRISM [07:17] gparted also has its own live cd. which is smaller then a ubuntu cd. [07:18] tasos77, the ubuntu cd = live cd [07:18] ok asks cause i already have ubuntu disk === PRISM is now known as dagjomar2 [07:18] the ubuntu desktop cd - may or may not include gparted by default.. i dont recall. if not you can easially install it. [07:18] tasos77, yes, we told you that several times now [07:18] it does [07:18] and you WILL want to be sure the filesystems you are messing with are UNMOUNTED befor trying to use gparted on them [07:19] the installer removes it upon installation [07:19] My operating system is Ubuntu 13.04 ,I can 't connect to it with ssh tools. What should I do? [07:19] libin: you did install the ssh server? [07:19] what is ynmounted? [07:19] !mount | tasos77 [07:19] tasos77: mount is used to attach devices to directories. See also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount [07:20] yes [07:20] you do not resize or 'partion' a filesystem thats in use (mounted) [07:20] libin@libin-H61-S3:/etc$ sudo netstat -nap |grep -i sshd [07:20] tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:22 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 811/sshd [07:20] tcp6 0 0 :::22 :::* LISTEN 811/sshd [07:20] libin: can you do a 'ssh locallhost;' on the server? [07:20] oops no ; [07:21] i want to resize ext4 partition [07:21] tasos77: so use the Ubuntu live cd, or the gparted live cd.. and resize it.. [07:22] yes,I can connect .'ssh locallhost;' on the server [07:22] where is this ext4 normally mounted to tasos77 ? [07:22] libin: and the machine using putty is where exactly? [07:22] how do i add a directory to nautilus / "places"? CTRL+D doesn't do the trick. [07:22] local lan? internet? [07:22] local lan [07:23] tasos77: may use resize2fs [07:23] local lan, local local area network...? ;) [07:23] I want to know what firewall used by Ubuntu 13.04 [07:23] libin: and you are giving putty the IP# od the ssh server? [07:23] can you order by case ? [07:23] libin: none is tiurned on by default [07:24] !firewall [07:24] Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has built-in firewall capabilities. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | GUI frontends such as Gufw also exist. | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo [07:24] so like case x = y field1 else field2 ? [07:24] !firewall | libin [07:24] libin: please see above [07:24] so sort by field1 if x =y else sort by field2 ? [07:24] oops [07:24] how to disable the firewall [07:25] libin: its NOT enabled by default.. did you enable it? [07:25] no [07:25] libin: can the windows machine pintg the ip# of the linux box?

Whenever I try recovery mode, my comp freezes after "loading initial ramdisk". And yes, I started with Windows @.@ . [07:29] linux can ping windows, windows cant ping linux... points to the windows firewall blocking stufff to me... [07:30] hmm... I'll try to get into my Windows partition and see if I can fix anything with that [07:30] !11.04 [07:30] Ubuntu 11.04 (Natty Narwhal) was the fourteenth release of Ubuntu.

[07:35] drivers?? dr_willis [07:36] I guess ubuntu firewall stop it. [07:36] Guerrilla_: yes.... [07:36] kk thanks man [07:36] if you can ssh in the console to localhost then it sounds like a firewall issue [07:36] !ati [07:36] For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto [07:36] yes,Ubuntu use iptables? [07:37] double check your firewall - be sure it has no rules.. 'sudo iptables --list' <---------------- libin yes.. it can. [07:37] ufw and gufw are a front end to the iptables commands. [07:37] libin: Yep [07:38] As dr_willis said ufw and gufw are useful and make things much easier [07:38] There are no rules [07:38] sudo iptables --flush cleans out all rules. :) but thats about the extent of my firewall-fu-skiolls [07:39] dr_willis, when i go to synaptic package manager there is a few xserver-xorg-video-ati things that are already checked, does that mean i already have them?

[07:55] gurpinder, If you know the name and it does not return by running a update, debs are on the web if you know the name quite often. [07:58] gurpinder: once you install the .deb you dont need the .deb file any more... it will get auto cleaned out after a time [07:58] apt-get has a download option if you know the package name [08:00] Okay, thank you all. but if i wanna copy .deb file from one system to another. how can I do that then ??

I assume this is due to the graphics card (driver issue)?, although im not certain. The pc came with an amd driver, but it seems to be for windows (exe). What are you thoughts? [08:46] some packages are not downloading [08:47] interesting hack related question. I have a new install ubuntu 12.04 install, which I know the username and password for (not super user) and I forgot to install SSHd on it, its in my datacenter, can I some how hack it to install SSH? [08:47] keithjasper: not suspicious at all... [08:48] aeon-ltd: yea I know :( [08:48] its 10 miles away from me without remote hands lol [08:48] I am using the Main Server [08:48] keithjasper: you'll need a smarthands request [08:48] keithjasper: is there any remote access? [08:49] bugger lol thats what I thought … time for a drive later. I was supposed to install ssh but managed to forget [08:49] ok… lets switch it up a bit, how can i make a custom install script for ubuntu so that it automatically installs certain packages. :) so I don't make the mistake in future :) [08:51] how can i unmount a partition? [08:51] keithjasper: sure, you can use a bash script [08:51] amount /mountedfolder [08:51] tasos77: sudo umount /mont/point [08:51] ok [08:51] ActionParsnip: would I install this script separately, or would it be built in to auto run during installtion [08:52] Have 3 ubuntu servers all those ubuntu servers want to be backuped whole system not only filesystem , and i want to be moved to a centos server were we use it as a file server , Ubuntu server have the IP address 192.168.1.55, 192.168.1.52,192.168.1.50 it want to be backuped in 192.168.1.15 /home/sysadmin/backup, And how can i restore it if there is a server crash [08:52] keithjasper: just copy it over somehow and run it, or put it on a persistance if you use USB to install [08:52] hey, I did a dist-upgrade on a headless ubuntu desktop server and now when connecting via xrdp and using Chromium, everything is purple. the colors are distorted and it's purple/pink-ish. this only happens on Chromium and Chrome. on Firefox and Midori, everything works fine - except for Flash. when there's Flash on the page, that flash part is distorted purple/pink as well and the image jumps [08:52] all over the place, it's broken. [08:53] I'm not the best at linux but I've obviously already tried reinstalling the browsers + flash plugin, also removing all plugins and using clean browsers [08:53] Skullclown: that's a very bizarre situation. [08:53] ActionParsnip: yea it would be on a USB stick so ideally want to build it into installed, something similar to RedHar Kickstart [08:53] not working [08:53] Walex: it is. I did not expect it and I can't fix it [08:53] Skullclown: are you sure it is not just a compression artifact? [08:54] i write sudo umount /dev/sda6 [08:54] Skullclown: the other possibility is some sort of weird OpenGL thing [08:54] and says not found [08:54] Walex: absolutely sure, it's near impossible [08:54] tasos77: no - amount /place/where/dev/sda6/is/mounted [08:54] umount* [08:55] Walex: Chrome and Chromium are both entirely bugged, even the UI is purple/pink, but Firefox's UI is fine, only Flash doesn't work on Firefox [08:55] ?? [08:55] Skullclown: it is not a browser issue, it is either a virtual X server issue or a remote protocol access issue [08:55] place where? [08:55] Skullclown: the 'dist-upgrade' probably upgraded the virtual X server [08:55] Walex: but isn't it weird that it only happens on these browsers? in this specific cases? [08:56] tasos77: if /dev/sda6 is mounted at /tmp you would do - sudo mount /tmp check you mount command to see where it is mounted [08:56] these * [08:56] Skullclown: different browsers use different rendering approaches. [08:56] guys i've just got a new desktop (Radeon 7750, AMD FX), didn't come with an os so i installed ubuntu, tried to run TF2 and im getting glitched output (semi repeating sound, really laggy graphics. I assume this is due to the graphics card (driver issue)?, although im not certain. The pc came with an amd driver, but it seems to be for windows (exe). What are you thoughts? [08:56] Walex: even for the UI? nothing is shared? [08:57] Walex: I do have a list of packages that was upgraded, want me to link them? [08:57] berryciderspider: ATI website for latest linux drivers? [08:57] berryciderspider: install drivers? try all options [08:57] aeon-ltd: yes, even for the UI. It could be the app uses XRENDER/GLX for everything [08:57] berryciderspider: almost certaintly your graphics are not being ccelerated. [08:57] hi [08:58] berryciderspider: also are you using WINE to run TF2 or do you have the linux native installed? [08:58] i wrote sudo mount /tmp [08:58] berryciderspider: I have a 7850 with the proper AMD/ATi accelerated drivers, and I cannot play TF2 because the drivers don't have some moderately obscure OpenGL feature that the Source engine needs. I can play HL-era games though. [08:58] and did nothing [08:58] Walex: I had to search through dpkg.log to find the packages because I didn't think of writing down all packages that would be upgraded.. since I thought it would go fine, like always [08:58] Walex: but here goes http://pastebin.com/JrYH1NXv [08:58] at gparted iwant to delete partition /den/sda6 [08:59] keithjasper: how can i accelerate it? [08:59] berryciderspider: installing the official ATI drivers [08:59] berryciderspider: however as says you might want to try the MS-Windows version of Steam under GNU/Linux using Wine. I use Crossover which is Wine with some nicer packaging and GUI. [08:59] what write in terminal to unmount it? [09:00] I have a local workstation in my office and I'm looking for a way to use it remote. I have access to it via SSH when using another host as jumpstation which serves well for most purposes (I'm a unix sysadmin). But when I need to access internal websites or use our ticketing tool I need to have some kind of remote console. [09:00] nomike: thanks for letting us know. [09:01] Walex: ok ill give that a shot [09:01] I enabled Remote-Desktop sharing and at the moment I'm using VNC to connect to it, but as my computer in work has two big screens and at home I only have a 12" Thinkpad this is very uncomfortable. === Nothing_Much_ is now known as Nothing_Much [09:01] Do you have any better solution for that? [09:01] Walex: could you look through the package list to see if you can find anything? At this point, any help is really appreciated. [09:01] nomike: sure, just create a new virtual session with the right siz [09:02] Skullclown: I looked at the package list and there is no X or Chromium or xrdp upgrade, so it might be a compression artifact [09:02] Skullclown: or perhaps you have in a different way enabled some kind of "cute" graphics option [09:02] Walex: just to check, are these the right drivers? http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/linux/Pages/radeon_linux.aspx?type=2.4.1&product=2.4.1.3.42&lang=English [09:03] pwd [09:03] Walex: I didn't change anything aside from dist-upgrade, nothing at all (except for apt-get update right before that). [09:03] berryciderspider: depends what you mean by "right". If use the Ubuntu-packaged drivers === zipper_ is now known as urbanslug [09:03] Skullclown: hard to believe.... [09:04] Skullclown: also, why are you using 'xrdb' and not VNC on a virtual screen [09:04] oops....whatever.. [09:04] Walex: well, it's true.. [09:04] Hi, I installed a package when I wasn't in a virtualenv, how can I remove it? [09:04] berryciderspider: there are very nice pages that explain which drivers to use for Steam/TF2 under GNU/Linux. [09:05] berryciderspider: there are very nice pages that explain which drivers to use for Steam/TF2 under Ubuntu specifi cally [09:05] Walex, the problem is that I'm also running VMWare Player with a WIndows 7 VM on my Workstation beacause I need to run some software which is windows only (e.g. ticketing tool) [09:05] Walex: I don't know? As I said, I'm not the best with Linux so I just installed xrdp following a tutorial. When connecting to xrdp, it's via sesman-Xvnc in the dropdown, default choice [09:05] So if I open a new session, the Windows VM will still reside on the old one on the local screen [09:06] Anyone recommend a channel which I can ask about software development in general [09:06] I updated some packages and afterwards it asked me to reboot. Now it just gives me a dark screen and hangs. I can boot into recovery mode but anything else just freezes the machine. I think I have 12.04 installed. Any suggestions would be welcome [09:07] Isn't there something like Remote Desktop? So when you login remotely you just hijack the current local session and it get's adapted to the rdesktop-viewers window size? Something like M$ is doing in Windows? [09:07] berryciderspider: look for the x-swat x-updates repo instructions [09:07] nomike: yes, VNC, and you can create virtual X sessions of the size you want [09:08] Anyone recommend a channel which I can ask about software development [09:08] I know, but how do I transfer a program running on a local X session to a new VNC-X-Session [09:08] nomike: you cannot... [09:08] urbanslug, do you have a general question or is it language dependend? In the latter case I would reccomend #c++, #python, #java, etc. [09:08] nomike: however, if you use the 'xvnc' session you can share your existing X session, but then it will be full size. [09:09] Walex: is xrdp not a good option? Or is VNC just that much better? xrdp is easy because it works with remote desktop (windows), does that also work with VNC? [09:09] nomike: doesn't have to be linux either, used to use Putty on my windows laptop to control my playstation with x session [09:09] nomike general [09:09] nomike are you a dev? Maybe you can help. [09:09] !alis | urbanslug [09:09] urbanslug: this is not the right channel. === lynks is now known as JC-alex [09:10] urbanslug: if you have web-related devel questions try #web [09:10] All my system's run on linux. My Office workstationnormaly too, but I installed linux and converted the windows to a VM. I hate working with that unergonomic OS... [09:10] is the bot down? [09:10] urbanslug: alis is a services bot that can help you find channels. Read "/msg alis help list" for help and ask any questions about it in #freenode. Example usage: /msg alis list #ubuntu* or /msg alis list *http* [09:10] urbanslug: If its UBuntu specific maybe ask in #ubuntu-devel [09:10] there we go, much lagged [09:10] Ben64: Just a go slow :) [09:11] Skullclown: both 'xrdp' and VNC do a nice job, but there are corner cases. [09:11] Skullclown: if one does something strange, try the other. [09:11] how about FreeNX? Is this worth trying? [09:12] nomike: it is rather faster but far more complicated [09:13] btw. What's this remote login feature lightdm offers? [09:13] nomike: Skullclown: one of the advantages of VNC is that is comes with a native VNC/X server so you can run a virtual X session remotely. of the size you want [09:13] nomike: don't know but sounds like XDMCP [09:13] hi, I'm trying to add a bookmark using the Bookmarks menu or by pressing Ctrl+D but to no avail... (nautilus 3.4.2 in GNOME 3.4 fallback mode) can you please help me? [09:14] XDMCP would be a preferred option (if it's over SSH it's encrypted and compressed, so that's no problem) but I think it was abandoned some releases ago, wasn't it? [09:14] hmmm [09:14] does ubuntu detect plugged in microphones automatically? [09:14] Skullclown: I am saying corner case/compression/... because Unity etc. under Ubuntu rely critically on accelerated OpenGL/XRENDER/GLX and that can be difficult to provide remotely in a nice way. [09:15] samertm, depends on the hardware but generally yes [09:15] yes it does samertm [09:15] kk thx [09:15] nomike: XDCMP is not a remote graphics protocol, it is a remote management protocol for X sessions. [09:15] hi, I'm trying to add a bookmark using the Bookmarks menu or by pressing Ctrl+D but to no avail... (nautilus 3.4.2 in GNOME 3.4 fallback mode) can you please help me? [09:15] nomike: it relies on the X protocol over the network to do the remote login. [09:16] I know, I've used it in the past. In GDM you could select an option to connect to a remote host, enter a hostname/IP and then you where presented with that host's GDM greeter === JC-alex is now known as lynks [09:17] So i've got the my dual monitor setup to actually not mirror each other finally [09:17] but now i have a watermark in the lower right hand corner that says AMD unsupported hardware [09:17] i have an ati radeon Radeon HD 5750 [09:17] GPU , any suggestions, [09:17] perhaps i have the wrong driver? [09:18] What I'm doing at the moment is to login to my WS using VNC and the first thing I do is open the system settings and enable screen mirroring. Then i'm able to work. [09:18] Skullclown: Chromium IIRC also uses OpenGL as mentioned: http://www.h-online.com/open/news/item/Chromium-gets-GPU-acceleration-1069131.html [09:18] hi [09:18] Guerrilla_: it depends entirely on which version of which AMD/ATi driver you have installed [09:19] ah, well i installed lubuntu the 64 bit version [09:19] nomike: sure, in that way your VNC session is the same as your console X session, including the size. === jeanaustinr is now known as jeanaustinr|x [09:19] and on the ati website, there is an option for linux 86 / and linux 86 / 64 [09:19] any ideas on which would be the proper one [09:19] nomike: the other possibility is for you to create a virtual VNC session of the right size. [09:20] VNC however has optimizations built in to only send updates for screen--regions where stuff actually changed (instead of sending the whole screen contents all the time). But when I'm running the Windows VM VNC doesn't know about individual controls inside the VM. It only sees one big bitmap which is constantly refreshed as a whole. [09:20] nomike: this would be distinct from the X session you use from your WS console. === lynks is now known as Denton [09:20] true [09:20] nomike: that must be because the VNC server inside the VM is doing a bad job === Denton is now known as JCDenton [09:20] !ati | Guerrilla_ [09:20] Guerrilla_: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto === JCDenton is now known as JC-lynks === JC-lynks is now known as register === register is now known as JC-lynks [09:21] wait a second, I think I have an idea...let me check something... [09:21] nomike: what is the purpose of the remote connection? VNC may not even be needed as a sleeker solution may exist [09:21] nomike: the other possibility is that when you login to your workstation you use an 'xrandr' command to change the size of your console X session to one compatible with your laptop screen [09:22] okay im downloading the correct driver from the website now [09:22] don't get the website version [09:23] ActionParsnip: We have a windows-based ticketing tool which runs on a VMWare on my ubuntu workstation. Additionally we have some Intranet Websites which are only available from inside (and sometimes only work in IE, but most of the time FF is enought) [09:23] Guerrilla_: look at the link that ubottu gave you above [09:23] hi, I'm trying to switch from legacy driver solution to open drivers form my ati hd4xxx but I'm getting a black screen at boot, can someone help me pls...I can't understand what's going on with my drivers [09:23] i did man [09:23] but i know the actual GPU make and model [09:24] i just downloaded from the ATI site [09:24] the one for linux === Adillian_ is now known as Adillian [09:24] how to mv or rm the file which has \r in the name [09:24] mv secret\r-.tar.gz didn't work [09:25] it gave me a file that says amd-driver-installer-catalyst-13-4-x86.x86_64.run [09:25] Guerrilla_: well good luck, that method of installation is not supported here [09:25] okay [09:25] well fudge man [09:25] im just trying to get the right install [09:25] MagePsycho: Have you tried using tab completion to fill in the filename? eg "mv secre" and then press tab [09:26] DJones that's not autocompleting [09:26] MagePsycho: might need \\r or \\\r [09:26] and the dashes mess up stuff too... [09:28] nomike: so no web UI you can use etc? [09:28] Please guys help me out here [09:28] i just want to make sure everything is current with my ATI drivers for my Radeon HD 5750 [09:29] Guerrilla_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI === a is now known as Guest42130 [09:30] ActionParsnip: Well, for the ticketing tool there is a web UI, but it's hardly useable at all and it really only work's well in IE. In Firefox and other browsers there is lot's of stuff which just doesn't work. [09:31] so when i download a driver from the site, per se, how would i go about installing it [09:31] it just gives me a bunch of text, when i try to open it [09:31] However I just found out, that VMWare player has a built in VNC-Server. So I could connect directly to my windows VM from outside to do any windows specific tasks. That's at least a bit better. [09:31] Guerrilla_, sh name.run [09:31] Guerrilla_: remember when i said that method is not supported here? well it still isn't supported here. [09:31] is it a bad idea to do that or something? [09:31] sometimes, yeah [09:32] <_MagePsycho> mv secret\\\r-tar.gz ../ -> not working [09:32] <_MagePsycho> mv secret\\r-tar.gz ../ -> not working [09:32] <_MagePsycho> mv "secret\r-tar.gz" ../ -> not working [09:32] even though it said it was for linux [09:32] its still a bad idea?!? [09:32] you can try it, but you can't come here for help with it [09:32] _MagePsycho: what are you trying to do? [09:32] im using the ati drivers no problem here [09:32] _MagePsycho: also, what do you mean with 'not working' [09:32] _MagePsycho: http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/delete-remove-files-with-inode-number.html [09:33] exit [09:34] Guerrilla_, you will ne the linux headers installed to install the drivers ... >> sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) [09:34] well it just concerns me that i have AMD unsupported hardware water marks, on the lower right hand corner of each of my monitors [09:34] that wasn't there, until i used catalyst control center [09:34] which is pretty odd to me [09:35] Guerrilla_: try something easier first, like sudo apt-get install fglrx-updates [09:35] does anyone here have experience of /etc/udev/rules.d? [09:35] for hotplugging usb devices [09:35] kk [09:35] let me run that [09:35] Is there a way to install IE on linux (like with wine or that wine-based-game installer (have just forgotten it's name)? [09:35] okay its downloading ben [09:36] ben64, when doing a DL via terminal will it automatically go to my /home partition === jfc is now known as jfcjfc [09:36] because when i installed lubuntu, i made one partition of roughly 30mb for the OS it self and the other 500 for home [09:36] Guerrilla_: depends what you're downloading [09:37] aka one small partition for / , the larger portion for /Home [09:37] Guerrilla_: 30Mb, not Gb? [09:37] 30gp [09:37] gb [09:37] okay install is complete === dan_ is now known as Guest89451 [09:37] shoudld i restart? [09:37] yep [09:38] one quick question ben64 [09:38] when i want to download something to the larger partition [09:38] which is my home partition [09:38] for games, software videos etc. [09:38] Where to get link to download ubuntu? I need to install with windows 7. No wubi.exe please. [09:39] how would i go about doing that [09:39] CoolCoder: ubuntu.com [09:39] CoolCoder: www.ubuntu.com [09:39] Guerrilla_: normally stuff you do as your own user ends up in /home [09:39] ah so i assume system specific things, go into the \ partition [09:40] such as GPU stuff etc. ben64 [09:40] CoolCoder: Do you want to install inside windows? or beside windows? [09:41] I am always getting a link to download ubuntu desktop and everytyime when I burn ISO it will be wubi. I have a wubi installation. Its taking lots of space and wired. Up on advice, Someone told me the issues was because of wubi and get a new version of standalone ubuntu. I am searching for that link where I can install on windows 7(I ahve a windows OS, I dont want to loose it) fraser_: === llutz_ is now known as llutz [09:42] Coolcoder, i have restart real quick, but if you have a flash drive thats large enough, use universal USB iso maker, and put the image on a USB stick... thats the easy way [09:42] sometimes you may have to use GPARTED first to get your ext4 filesystem setup first [09:42] CoolCoder: Just download the ubuntu iso from the website, it may include the wubi.exe file, but as long as you burn it to dvd/usb and boot up with it, it'll let you install alongside windows without using wubi [09:42] and if for whatever reason it just goes straight to win 7 after the install, hold shift after restarting, and it will give you grub window to choose which OS to go to [09:43] brb [09:43] DJones: Is that only possible to make dual boot with wubi? [09:43] CoolCoder: You want to go to ubuntu.com and download the .iso file. You'll need that, regardless. Then you'll want to download UniversalUsbInstaller to install in onto a usb flash drive. Boot your computer with the flash drive plugged-in, and follow the instructions. Ubuntu can install itself beside Windows, and will give you a choice every time to start the computer as to which OS you'd like to use [09:45] CoolCoder: No, I've never used wubi, as far as I know, wubi is included on the install media by default, but it doesn't get used unless you're already running windows and install ubuntu within windows using wubi [09:45] okay Ben64 looks like it worked brother [09:45] watermark is now gone [09:45] :D [09:46] and i suppose all drivers are installed as well [09:46] CoolCoder: How are you trying to install Ubuntu? [09:46] so things are good to go now? [09:46] fraser_: I have installed earlier the same way ubuntu 11.x version. But I was having so many issues on space like 40GB is always filled. I have raised this issues to many ubuntu forums. Most of them answerd that, the reason is because I am using wubi installation and which is not the right way to install ubuntu. They adviced me to download and install another standard version. Confused now [09:46] DJones: I have installed earlier from wubi file [09:47] I mean wubi installer [09:48] CoolCoder: If you install the way I mentioned, you'll be installing plain ol' ubuntu. It should work totally fine! If you're running out of space, you can shrink the size of your Windows partition to get more space [09:48] hey, i have an usb stick which is still still transfairing files (blinking) even if it said dd complete does someone know why it is like this? [09:48] -still [09:48] :P [09:49] zipy: lol, to me, flashing lights on USB sticks don't mean shit to me [09:49] CoolCoder: ok, just download the desktop iso from the website and burn it to a dvd or onto a usb stick, then put the dvd in the drive or plug the usb stick in, then reboot the computer, it should then startup the normal Ubuntu installer so that you can install alongside windows (this will need you create disk partitions to install on by either shrinking your windows partition or using free space if you already have it) [09:49] zipy: OS writes slower to USB than it read the data, so it's still writing [09:49] hi [09:50] <_MagePsycho> any help on how to read file with \r in the name? [09:50] I can't login to unity 2D , although I changed to unity 2D on the login scree. any idea? [09:50] _MagePsycho: i already gave you a link for that [09:51] nopresnik, when i look in multiload, it also says disk write [09:51] <_MagePsycho> Ben64 which link can you send once [09:51] what's the default tool to configure runlevel services? [09:51] _MagePsycho: http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/delete-remove-files-with-inode-number.html [09:51] so its still transfairing [09:51] with fullspeed [09:51] verses_: I didn't think unity 2d was still supported, what version are you on? [09:51] _MagePsycho: less "foo\rbar" [09:51] Gilligan94, it's a ubuntu 12.04 [09:51] llutz, ah so the dd status in terminal is the read data status only? [09:52] *red [09:52] zipy: no, but the writes are getting cached [09:53] <_MagePsycho> rm -i secret\r-.tar.gz is not working [09:53] _MagePsycho: rm "foo\rbar" [09:53] <_MagePsycho> rm: cannot remove `secretr-.tar.gz': No such file or directory [09:53] _MagePsycho: read the page better [09:54] Ben64, so when the last read for caching is done it says complete while write is still active. did i understand this correctly? [09:54] zipy: no.. it finished writing everything to cache, so its job is done [09:54] hmm how can i find out how big the cache is [09:54] not sure [09:55] zipy: issue "sudo sync", when that finished, cached writes should be done (usb shouldn't be blinking anymore) [09:55] what's the default tool to configure runlevel services? [09:56] ye im just thinking of how to figure out when its really done if i have usb devices without leds if in ssh for example [09:56] zipy: force a sync and you'll be fine [09:57] how do i do that [09:57] rsync? [09:57] zipy: "sudo sync" [09:57] rsync hs nothing to do with that [09:58] so after dd shows done i simply sudo sync after? [09:58] i have to try taht out :D [09:58] thx [09:58] zipy: if you write on mounted media, mount those with "sync" option (won't do with dd) [09:58] *with dd writing on raw devices [10:00] im trying to install ubuntu (12 or 13) and the installer crashes the same way for both versions: "console-setup-linux breaks console-setup" - has anyone ever seen this before? [10:00] what's the default tool to configure runlevel services? [10:00] !runlevel | qiyong [10:00] qiyong: In Ubuntu all runlevels except 0,1 and 6 are by default equal. Also keep in mind that Ubuntu now uses !Upstart instead of System V init so there is normally no /etc/inittab. [10:01] Info about upstart at http://upstart.ubuntu.com/cookbook/ [10:01] !unity2d [10:01] !unity [10:01] Unity is the default UI since Ubuntu 11.04. Unity is a shell for GNOME. see http://unity.ubuntu.com. For a GNOME 2-like experience, see !notunity [10:01] what's the default tool to configure runlevel services? like rcconf update-rc.d [10:01] !notunity [10:01] Ubuntu 11.10 and higher use the !Unity desktop environment by default. To use GNOME Shell instead, install the "gnome-shell" package and investigate "gnome-tweak-tool". For GNOME Fallback mode, which is similar to GNOME 2, install "gnome-panel". Both packages will place entries in the Sessions dropdown. [10:02] llutz: what about /etc/rc2.d ? [10:02] i got a VM contain ubuntu (SWEET), its webgoat is a local server that works at port 8080 however my browser cannot connect to this local host, any suggestions ? [10:02] qiyong: there is none atm, "sysv-rc-conf" might work (despite the name). you want to read about upstart and how it works, it has a wrapper for the old sysv-scripts [10:02] big thanks to Ben64 [10:02] I appreciate ya bud [10:02] how do I add a user to a group? [10:03] ddssc: sudo adduser user group [10:03] llutz: is rcN.d still used?

[10:05] any helper ? [10:05] hello anybody help me... how can i fix wifi(showing error device not managed) [10:08] the-newsman: can you ping the server? [10:08] ActionParsnip the server and the client r on the same VM [10:08] the-newsman: is there an access restriction in the server? [10:08] Walex2? [10:09] i dunno. i just downloaded the VM from the web and i followed the isntructions. [10:09] kiwis: do you have any "iface wlanX" entries in /etc/network/interfaces?

(without quotes) [10:10] what kind of addresses or interfaces do you see? [10:10] i think you only have a localhost interface, no "real" network interface [10:11] since it a vm [10:11] AaddeRammer can i query u ? [10:12] looking at the website I think they only made it available on localhost on purpose [10:13] because it's about hacking / testing security [10:13] if srever + client are inside the same VM, there is no need for more than lo [10:13] llutz, exactly [10:13] hello anybody help me... how can i fix wifi(showing error device not managed) [10:13] (given that "server" listens on ALL ifaces) [10:13] AaddeRammer look at that http://pastebin.com/KsRuebrd [10:17] the-newsman: " sudo lsof -i :8080" shows your server listening on that port?

[10:17] llutz it gave nothing at all, i got the promprt back [10:18] the-newsman: theres your answer why the client cannot connect. the server doesn't even run [10:20] how do i find a mainboard with proper linux support? T_T googling for the chipnames (mainly sound and network) doesnt give me good results [10:20] _MagePsycho, why can't you delet with just - rm filename? [10:21] _MagePsycho: try find . -inum `ls -i filename | awk '{print $1}'` -delete [10:21] and just tab-complete the filename [10:21] (but foo\\rbar should reference a file named 'foo\rbar') [10:22] _MagePsycho: just doublequote the filename [10:22] _MagePsycho: use "?" instead, rm secret?-.tar.gz [10:22] _MagePsycho: or mv in taht case... [10:23] <_MagePsycho> not working any of them [10:24] _MagePsycho: 'not working' is not a good answer [10:24] _MagePsycho: what is the filename exactly? [10:24] just tell me one thing guys - is it any worth waiting for my unity 2D to work or should I go back? since yesterday , I can't login to untiy 2D [10:24] say what you tried, and what happened exactly [10:24] kiwis: What wireless device do you have, and what Ubuntu version are you using? [10:24] verses_: what happens if you log in to the 2D session [10:24] _MagePsycho: http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/delete-remove-files-with-inode-number.html [10:25] _MagePsycho: this is the last time i'm giving you the link, read it, it works [10:25] ActionParsnip, I get the same plain unity istead of unity 2D [10:26] a day before I had changed to plain unity ( I am not sure what is called ) just to get rid of chrome crashes, but yesterday when I tried to use unity 2D through login screen it logged me in right, but it was all plain unity [10:26] after installing amd fglrx on ubuntu12.04.2 and restart it the amd catalist say that it cant find any amd driver. i have amd4200 and a amd 5000 hybrid !any body van help! [10:28] _MagePsycho, if none of them is working , time's now to check it's permission [10:28] mersadkhan: How did you install fglrx? [10:29] from additional driver [10:29] from terminal [10:29] even from amd site [10:29] Well which? [10:29] mersadkhan: Did it complete sucesfully, or did you get an error message during the installation? [10:29] the non free [10:29] all of them have same problem [10:30] after restart i cant access my hardware [10:30] Is your card supported? [10:30] yes [10:30] mersadkhan, a humble request my friend , just type it on one line [10:31] <_MagePsycho> mv $'secret\r-.tar.gz' ../ is working like a charm [10:32] mersadkhan: can you install the fglrx from the official ubuntu repos and show the whole output from "apt-get install fglrx" on the terminal on a pastebin? [10:32] mersadkhan: also make sure you got the right kernel headers installed [10:32] i do it before [10:32] the result was same [10:33] mersadkhan: but im not sure if that hybrid cards are supported anyway. im not a fglrx guy [10:33] mersadkhan: Is it a laptop? What model of laptop is it? [10:33] yes [10:33] heey [10:33] hp [10:33] mersadkhan: hp make a lot of laptops... [10:33] gma 3600 chipset , is i supported yet? [10:33] is anybody here using the liquorix kernel ? I'm getting kernel boot panic on 12.04 [10:34] mersadkhan: What model laptop is it? [10:34] 01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI RS880M [Mobility Radeon HD 4200 Series] [10:34] 02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI Madison [Radeon HD 5000M Series] [10:34] its my result of graphics models [10:35] mersadkhan: again: if you pastebin the ouptput from that install people in here could see if errors occur [10:36] There was a problem initializing Catalyst Control Center Linux edition. It could be caused by the following. [10:36] No AMD graphics driver is installed, or the AMD driver is not functioning properly.

[11:15] kill it [11:15] thanks Ubuntu i just wasted about 5 hours playing my favorite game === skirge1 is now known as skirge [11:15] Dinosaurio, if you are using default ubuntu "sudo stop lightdm" will close it too [11:16] Hello everyone. Has anyone had issues with strange characters showing up when programming? I'm using sublime text and sometimes my PHP code breaks due to these invisible characters "showing up". [11:16] ezra-s: and to start again, "start" and go to alt+F7, right? [11:16] LucidDreamZzZ, playing your favourite game is not a waste of time [11:16] Dinosaurio, to start it back, "sudo start lightdm" [11:16] going to be tough to do work though now ;p [11:17] Dinosaurio, or "sudo restart lightdm" for both [11:17] LucidDreamZzZ, I played Don't Starve for over 60 hours already on Ubuntu too :P [11:18] hehe i'll have to check it out, was playing hl2dm [11:19] It took me much efford to stop playing it, hooks badly [11:19] only 6cents on my account i bought some tf2 stuff [11:20] still cannot play that its Valves fault [11:20] afflicto, have you tried dos2unix? [11:20] ezra-s: what's that? [11:20] LucidDreamZzZ, why not? I can play all valve games without problems [11:21] afflicto, a terminal tool to convert windows carriage returns to unix [11:21] windows as everything does that different too [11:22] i dunno its a glitch in tf2 that i cannot start it it say GL error [11:22] LucidDreamZzZ, I very much doubt so, then probably is drivers not correctly installed, which gpu do you use?

[11:23] ezra-s: I created and wrote the file on linux tho? [11:23] I'm looking for someone to help me build a custom ubuntu for a laptop thin client solution with a few requirements. [11:23] i can play other hl2 based game like hl2dm [11:23] intel hd3000 [11:23] afflicto, then it could be an encoding problem [11:23] get over 200 fps [11:23] ezra-s: I'm saving it as UTF-8. [11:23] afflicto, which is your native language? [11:23] xormor ? what exactly do you need help with [11:23] or the locale specified in your ubuntu? [11:24] maybe it has something to do with it [11:24] ezra-s: I have a norwegian keyboard layout. But ubuntu is displaying English UK. [11:24] Hi, Unity doesn't work, when I open my session it just shows the wallpaper [11:24] any idea of how to force it to open? [11:24] ctrl+alt+t and try type in unity [11:24] afflicto, could it be norwegian characters that show like you described? [11:25] Dinosaurio, you broke something, which Ubuntu version are you using? [11:25] ezra-s: 12.04 [11:25] I'm thinking about using Ubuntu mini and lightdm if anyone has time to chat [11:25] ezra-s: I don't think so. It's similar to the norwegian "Å" but the character showing up is "Â". Dno if you can see it. (I can't see it in the source code) [11:26] Valve likes to break stuff they eventually might hopefully fix, but as long as hl2dm works [11:26] wow, I also don't have "close" and those buttons [11:26] it seems that compiz doesn't work [11:26] welp [11:27] I see A circle on top [11:27] A ^ on top [11:27] macwolf74: should I dist-upgrade? [11:27] abt udea of how to open compiz? [11:27] any idea* [11:27] xormor, what edition? and for what? [11:27] Dinosaurio, there is a program called unsettings, that could revert unity to defaults, but I'm not sure if it works for ubuntu 12.04 [11:28] other than that and you don't have anything to lose I would go to my ~/ dir and start removing all config files related to unity [11:28] ~/.config/whatever... etc [11:28] ezra-s: I checked the character on wikipedia and no it's not used in nowegian. [11:28] hellol [11:28] macwolf74: xubuntu 13.04 raring ringtail. I use irssi, Facebook and YouTube. And I program small mathematical programs in C++. [11:28] afflicto, then I don't know what could it be other than that :( [11:29] How can I change the session that starts on login? [11:29] you're already on the latest version [11:29] ezra-s: will it work ? [11:29] on 13.04 [11:29] macwolf74: ok, thanks. [11:29] ezra-s: hm ok. It's incredibly annoying as I keep re-writing entire lines all the time. :\ [11:29] inad922, go to the login screen, and click the ubuntu logo on the top right of your username, select a session [11:30] macwolf74, thx [11:30] afflicto, have you tried another editor just to check? [11:31] ezra-s: no but I could. [11:32] macwolf74, I probably phrased it wrong. I wanted to change the window manager [11:32] afflicto, doesn't hurt to check something else ;) [11:32] ezra-s: but it happens seemingly at random tho so I dno. [11:32] I've already added to xsessions and stuff... [11:32] afflicto, you type and suddenly those chars appear out of nowhere? [11:32] inad922, what desktop environment? [11:32] ezra-s: ok I did what you said, but using a command "unity --reset". It works perfectly now. Thank you very much! :-) [11:33] macwolf74, awesome [11:34] ezra-s: yes. And I can't see them in the source code. they show up in PHP's error messages tho. [11:34] Dinosaurio, ohh, didn't know about that one.. so easy.. lol, thanks for letting me know [11:34] brb [11:35] hi [11:35] afflicto, so if they are no there as you type and just show in php error messages it could be the lang settings inside the php code itself [11:35] I'm guessing though [11:35] trying to think of the parts involved from where you code to where you see those messages [11:35] I guess those are when you access the website, etc.. [11:37] I'm looking to upgrade my AMD/ATI Radeon HD 3000 on-board graphics to a Radeon HD6670. I was wondering if anybody to confirm that this card is fully supported by the latest Xorg and Ubuntu. [11:37] Is there a "HCL" that I can refer to before making any purchases? [11:37] ezra-s: I think it's probably me pressing keys which does nothing on windows but has a function on ubuntu. Since I type quite quickly, I sometimes hold down certain keys while pressing others which usually doesn't create any extra character. Soemthing like that. I dno. [11:39] afflicto, a sensible editor should show them up === Evpok_ is now known as Evpok === tbn is now known as Guest35071 [11:43] !hcl | codephobic [11:43] codephobic: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport - To help debugging and improving hardware detection, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingHardwareDetection [11:43] thanks iceroot [11:46] I am looking to get a vps for setting up a shell acount for irc(eggdrop,psybnc) should i get openvz or kvm? And what os should i go for debian/ubuntu/centos? [11:46] iceroot, unfortunately the HCL is out of date (and discontinued). [11:48] fu3L, doesn't really matter which distro. It needs to be one you are most familiar with [11:48] personally no experience with openvz, only kvm or xen [11:49] but any virtual solution is good enough for your needs I think [11:49] oh ok if i go for kvm its double the price of the openvz === crondd is now known as crond [11:51] afternoon everyone [11:52] andybrine: howdy [11:52] does anyone know of any good transcription software for ubuntu?

[12:10] okay, i'll try that and report back then ezra [12:11] sorry *50-100 client [12:11] fishcooker ask in #ubuntu-server [12:11] fishcooker, run a local ubuntu mirror [12:11] copy and extract the new apps on the server to the client, Sling [12:11] or something like puppet [12:12] every change on the server will be clone to the client if they want to update [12:12] just like on demand update [12:12] strange that I don't see apt......---10.11 version in packages.ubuntu.com for precise.. maybe not updated? [12:12] ezra: thank you so much! it worked :D [12:12] fishcooker, do you also want to install extra packages centrally? [12:12] greenie, I'm glad [12:13] fishcooker: puppet is probably best for distributing packages/configurations like that [12:13] just make a manifest that says 'expect package foo' [12:13] what kind of extra package AaddeRammer? [12:13] (ask in #puppet for details) [12:14] fishcooker, running a local ubuntu mirror will give you the control to push updated packages to your clients.

[12:32] greenie: I'd try lubuntu/xubuntu on that [12:32] greenie: The one you like the best. [12:32] gee ubuntu should run ok with 1G [12:32] greenie,^ [12:32] Xubuntun or lubuntu the latter of which i run on a inspiron w1750 with 8gb of ram no issues BlueEagl1 [12:33] Xubuntun or lubuntu the latter of which i run on a inspiron w1750 with 8gb of ram no issues Blueskey [12:33] greenie: I run Xubuntu on an atom netbook with 2Gb, runs well.

[12:33] greenie: What about them? === lynks is now known as JC-lynks [12:34] What's the difference between Ubuntu and Xubuntu? [12:34] greenie, including flash video , 1G should suffice [12:34] greenie, apt-get -y install flashplugin-nonfree [12:34] well, they're slow to begin with in xp for an atom netbook, and they take a lot more resources under linux [12:34] !xubuntu-desktop | ecoste [12:34] ecoste: k/ed/x/l/ubuntu-desktop is a metapackage. It depends upon other packages and brings them in; you can safely remove it, but it is recommended that you re-install it when upgrading. [12:34] at least that was my impression [12:35] fluxbox might be a good alternate to the other des i recommended [12:35] ecoste: xubuntu runs xfce4 for it's desktop environment, ubuntu uses unity. [12:35] 2 [12:35] !xubuntu | ecoste [12:35] ecoste: Xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce as the desktop environment.

It didn't work, so I set the two parameters back. Now I get connection refused - ssh is running, I deleted the entire contents of both users .ssh directories. Connection refused? [13:51] xeberdee: try connecting with compression enabled [13:52] xeberdee: do you connect to SSH using keys? [13:52] xeberdee: Have you tried "ssh -vvv server" to see more verbose output? [13:53] ActionParsnip: I have one server I connect to with a key [13:53] gnome 3.8 willl not work in ubuntu12.04? i m not able to install in ubuntu12.04 === ashish is now known as Guest26575 [13:54] ActionParsnip: compression something to add to sshd_config? [13:54] blazemore: not yet I'll try [13:55] xeberdee: If you can't understand the output and it's still failing, put the output on http://paste.ubuntu.com === sari is now known as Guest76837 [13:57] Guest26575: I'm guessing it won't work, since (I believe) 12.04 has gnome 3.4 [13:57] Guest26575: if you do manage to install it, there is likely to be portions that won't work/will be broken [13:57] ya i m using 3.4 but was interested to use latest gnome [13:57] ok thanks :) [13:58] Guest26575: you might want to ask over at #ubuntu-gnome [13:58] blazemore: nothing special - just port 22 connection refused. netstat says it's listening. 5 mins ago it was working - maybe UseDNS no has had some static effect... [13:58] i m new here may i know how to open that channel? [13:58] anyone know if in 13.04 you can make empathy popup ims? there use to be something you uncheck but I do not see it anymore [13:59] Guest26575: try /join #ubuntu-gnome [14:00] xeberdee: can you do "telnet hostname 22" ? [14:00] how to participate here: https://friendly.ubuntu.com/participate/ if I have Xubuntu, what package do I need to install? [14:01] blazemore: looks like port 22 - telnet: unable to connect to remote host [14:01] OK so nothing is listening on port 22 there, xeberdee [14:02] xeberdee: On the machine you're trying to connect *to*, can you do "ssh localhost" ? [14:02] tcp 0 0 *:ssh *:* LISTEN [14:02] That doesn't look right [14:02] I am not hugely familiar with netstat but I think there should be a 22 in there if it's ssh [14:02] xeberdee: On the machine you're trying to connect *to*, can you do "ssh localhost" ? [14:03] blazemore: can connect by locahost [14:03] seriously_random: I think only ubuntu is supported [14:03] seriously_random: have you checked to see if you have System Testing or Ubuntu Friendly? [14:03] xeberdee: OK so that means SSH daemon (server) is running, but a firewall or something is blocking access to it from another computer [14:03] xeberdee: Can you ping the target machine OK? "ping target" from your source machine [14:04] saiarcot895, what package is it part of? No I don't see it anywhere in default Xubuntu installation [14:04] blazemore: that's wierd. I only changed PAM and sshd_config settings. [14:05] xeberdee: If you can't ping the target, it's a networking issue [14:05] On a fresh install of ubuntu my brightness keys ar enot working [14:05] blazemore: shutting down the client machine :) [14:05] xeberdee: If you can ping it, but can't reach port 22 with telnet, it's a firewall issue [14:05] Dell XPS l501x [14:06] seriously_random, i don't think Xubuntu has that testing routine > http://xubuntu.org/contribute/qa/ [14:06] seriously_random: checkbox and checkbox-qt [14:07] blazemore: I can ping it [14:07] blazemore: and I had a samba share mounted too [14:08] anyone know if in 13.04 you can make empathy popup ims? there use to be something you uncheck but I do not see it anymore [14:08] can i mount imaages within 2 partitions in it? [14:09] xeberdee, stupid ? but did you install ssh? [14:10] Captain_Proton: not stupid - but yes [14:10] saiarcot895, thanks [14:10] xeberdee, ok did you install failtoban or ssh monitor [14:11] Jagst3r15: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1636959&p=10196162#post10196162 [14:12] blazemore that safe to add ppa? [14:12] Captain_Proton: neither - I'm nopt sure what those packages are [14:13] xeberdee, fail2ban will ban IPs there fail auth more then 3 times [14:13] fro server and machine that are on the internet [14:14] Is it OK to format your entire drive (eg. mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdb) rather than make a partition table? [14:15] I mean for a data drive not for an installation target obviously [14:15] Captain_Proton: don't have either [14:15] Where does stderr go? [14:16] xeberdee, you said you change the pam and ssh_config. what di you change in there? [14:16] Frogging|work: To the terminal by default [14:16] blazemore: Even in 13.04 [14:16] ? [14:16] Frogging|work: Yes, when you run a command in the terminal, you'll see both stdout and stderr unless you redirect them [14:17] Okay [14:17] Thanks [14:18] Captain_Proton: SSH was very slow to connect - I tried a guide which suggested that it was due to reverse DNS and system info. Changes in sshd_config = UseDNS no + comment out session optional pam_motd.so in pam.d/sshd [14:18] Hi people! [14:18] Anyone know how to get a display of the CPU core temps for all cores? (AMD K10) [14:19] how can I install synaptic package manager on 13.04 [14:19] I don't need the canned lm-sensors install FAQ as I have checked. [14:19] xeberdee, di you reboot or restart openssh [14:19] d* [14:19] Semper: just type "sensors" [14:19] hrezaei, http://desktoplinuxreviews.com/linux-tips/ubuntu/install-synaptic-package-manager-in-ubuntu-13-04/ [14:19] hrezaei: sudo apt-get install synaptic [14:20] blazemore, that does not work. Not only does it display only one K10 reading. That reading is wrong. [14:20] Captain_Proton: restarted both machines client and server with change. No luck - could not log into ssh at all. Set params back and rebooted both. [14:20] Semper: Have you installed lm-sensors and run sensors-detect ? [14:20] That is a performance and cooling adjusted temperature according to the kernal module. i.e. that is not a physical temperature. [14:20] Yes and yes, [14:20] it is still wrong. [14:21] xeberdee, and still no luck? [14:21] Semper: Does a module for your CPU's thermal sensor exist? [14:21] Yes. === rantic_ is now known as rantic [14:21] Semper: Does it have documentation? [14:21] Captain_Proton: nope [14:21] Under ubuntu I would have to recheck. === Rez is now known as Lo [14:22] It is a FX 8120 octacore. === Lo is now known as LoRez [14:22] xeberdee, If it were me id sudo apt-get remove --purge ssh < check make sure /etc/ssh is empty then sudo apt-get install shh [14:22] I need to know and monitor all core temperatures as I suspect it is getting overheat on one core and causing cut outs. [14:23] Hey guys im a windows 8 user looking to possibly go to Ubuntu. Can anyone point me towards an article or website that can explain to me which version I should use? I can't decide on whether to go with 12.04 or 13.04 [14:23] Captain_Proton: I'm thinking along the same lines - but then again it looks like there is some static info somewhere for PAM [14:23] Archanaut: IMO, use 13.04 if you're in doubt. it has better hardware support [14:23] !sensors | Semper [14:23] Semper: To access CPU temperature sensors and detect fan speeds, install the lm-sensors package. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SensorInstallHowto for installation and usage instructions. [14:24] ubottu, I have already done this. [14:24] Semper: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [14:24] ActionParsnip, even. [14:24] Archanaut: get 12.04, it is LTS and supported til April 2017, 13.04 is only supported til Jan 2014 [14:24] Archanaut: 12.04 is also designed with stability in mind ;) [14:24] lm sensors is installed and displays one K10 temperature which I know for a fact is not a physical temperature. [14:24] it is a performance metric [14:24] Semper: thats all I know, maybe others can advise [14:25] Semper: Can you please pastebin the output of "cat /etc/modules /etc/sensors*.conf [14:25] and it ain't lisiting every core. [14:25] Captain_Proton: I don't know why MOTD has really anything to do with PAM [14:25] one minute blazemore [14:25] xeberdee, maybe bt if PAM is broke that would not stop the ssh demon from running [14:26] Captain_Proton: yes - I'm not keen on messing with PAM [14:26] rantic_: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5884408/ [14:26] Hey folks, how can I open a port on a Virtual Machine (a windows 7 VM in qemu) to the outside network? Need port 5009 to direct in to the VM [14:26] I am on Ubuntu server [14:27] blazemore, http://pastebin.com/cEXNy33z [14:27] Cheers for the help. [14:27] Captain_Proton: I reckon ssh is fine and PAM is broke for some reason [14:28] fyi that is a ubuntu server on 12.04 [14:28] Semper: I don't see anything likely-looking in /etc/modules... try this [14:28] Captain_Proton: ssh runs on local machine, but I am refused acces to 22 and I'm running no firewall. [14:28] xeberdee, Here is my pam.d/sshd - http://pastebin.com/x8Bj4aQ4 [14:28] Semper: echo coretemp | sudo tee -a /etc/sensors [14:28] Semper: sudo modprobe coretemp [14:28] coretemp is not present [14:29] or at least I had tried that already [14:29] xeberdee, back up ours and paste mine in reboot see if it works [14:29] Yup: "FATAL: Error inserting coretemp (/lib/modules/3.2.0-49-generic/kernel/drivers/hwmon/coretemp.ko): No such device [14:29] " [14:29] is there a way to apt-get every available package in repo's ? [14:29] swordsmanz: You can't do that, nor do you want to [14:29] swordsmanz: some packages can't be installed alongside others [14:30] what about just most of them ? [14:30] not to mention the download would take about 50 days [14:30] swordsmanz, you cannot simply install everything :P [14:30] Semper: And you've *definitely* installed the package "lm-sensors" ? [14:30] http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=MTQwNTY *jumps around like little girl* [14:30] I'm sure there used to be a way to install everything with debian :P [14:30] Anyone here familiar with opening ports to a qemu VM? [14:31] swordsmanz: No, it is not possible [14:31] swordsmanz: some packages can't be installed alongside others [14:31] blazemore, with certainty http://pastebin.com/P4Ccc6nW [14:32] WACOMalt, that would be using UFW I think [14:32] Captain_Proton: I don't have this line: session optional pam_motd.so motd=/run/motd.dynamic noupdate [14:32] hmm so what would one do if one wanted ALL the software ? [14:32] WACOMalt, as far as I could tell with my last install, pretty sure the install added default rules to UFW [14:32] WACOMalt, did you use a bridge for the VM? all ports are open [14:32] ^ [14:33] xeberdee, Ok is it working now? [14:33] Captain_Proton: maybe I did CTRL+K and deleted it.. [14:34] xeberdee, :) === nottura is now known as barfod [14:34] Captain_Proton: sec [14:35] compdoc, not sure. I didnt change anything from qemu's default [14:35] but it certainly doesnt seem that way, I set up an ftp server listening on 5009 and it isnt accepting connections [14:36] WACOMalt, sounds like youre using the kvm virtual network, and that your guests use a different ip address range than the host. thats going to be difficult to work with [14:36] the ip address on the VM appears to be in the 10.0.2.XX range [14:36] well, Id prefer to set it up this way as I dont want the whole VM open to the network, only specific ports [14:37] Good day, humans. Can someone help me understand how to get a newer version of a package in Ubuntu? [14:37] I just found that qemu can forward ports on it's own, "qemu -m 384 -redir tcp:3389::3389 windows.img" [14:37] but I'm not sure if that has to be in the launch command for the VM or if that is run after launch [14:37] seanz: Hi seanz, what were you interested in gettnig? [14:37] The repositories that are set on the distro include a slightly older version than I need. [14:38] git 1.10. [14:38] rantic: ^ ^ ^ [14:38] ok, then sounds like you have it set up that way. You'll need to research opening ports on the host to the guest to allow traffic. sorry, but I'm not much help with that. I use bridges, and a seperate nic for the guests [14:39] help [14:39] TP-Link TL-WN8200ND [14:39] drive [14:40] Why is there language fragmentation in Ubuntu? [14:40] seanz: You're presumably at version 1.8.x right? [14:40] seanz: typically if the version of a packe you are looking for isn't in the official repos you have two options, look for a third party repo with updated packages, or build from source [14:40] rantic: Sorry, I misspoke. I'm at 1.7.9, but I need 1.8,. [14:40] i don't verstehen was tu talking about [14:40] rantic: Oh duh - I could just build from source. [14:41] rantic: I think I wanted to avoid that. [14:41] seriously though, what do you mean by language fragmentation [14:41] TP-Link TL-WN8200ND [14:41] drive [14:41] help [14:41] ubuntu 13.04 [14:41] rantic: However, if I find a third party repo, I may end up needing to upgrade a bunch of other packages, wouldn't I? [14:41] seanz: Yeah more than likely ... hm [14:41] seanz: Ubuntu repositories should haveversion 1.8 [14:42] rantic: I'm on 12.04 LTS. [14:42] rantic: I don't know if that makes a difference. [14:42] seanz: that could very well be why you have the older version === rose_ is now known as rose_76 [14:43] seanz: if version 1.8 is pretty new you more than likely won't find it in 12.04 [14:43] sanman: That's what my experience has shown so far. [14:43] http://paste.ubuntu.com/5884464/ [14:44] seanz: Yeah it pushed version 1.8.1.2 on 13.04 [14:44] seanz: sometimes in cases like this I make a chroot'ed install of a newer version of ubuntu and get the package I want in there [14:44] sanman: That sounds like a lot of work. Is it? [14:44] seanz: it's a bit complicated to go through if you've never done it though [14:45] Does it work with the system at large? [14:45] I usually script something out to use the version from the chroot [14:45] seanz: https://launchpad.net/~git-core/+archive/ppa [14:45] seanz: That PPA is an option [14:46] rantic: Wow, thanks. You and sanman have been hugely helpful. I'll try the ppa as my first option - see how tough that is to work with. [14:46] seanz: It should be as easy as adding it, updating your repository list and issuing an upgrade. [14:47] rantic: That would be the ideal solution. I've done similar things before and have gotten myself in trouble with related package upgrades, though. [14:47] seanz: if you ever want to look at building a chroot ubuntu actually has instructions here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot [14:47] Hi all, I broke my software index. repairs fail and give me this(3 different errors separated by /// ): http://pastebin.com/zYaQtKw0 [14:47] sanman: Thanks.

I've added that PPA, and now git shows an upgrade to 1.8.3! === rantic_ is now known as rantic [14:51] seanz: Awesome. [14:52] rantic: They were being held at their current state, but I override that, so I'm hoping the upgrade goes smoothly. [14:52] Where is skype in 12.04? [14:52] Its not in the USC anymore? [14:52] !skype [14:52] To install Skype on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype - To record on Skype, check: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeRecordingHowto - Please use open protocols instead if you can, see !Ekiga [14:52] rantic: Looks like the upgrade went smoothly. [14:52] rantic: Thanks again to you and sanman. [14:52] Problem solved. [14:52] Jagst3r15: i grab the deb from the skype site [14:53] yes but why not in uSC [14:53] seanz: No problem. You'll usually only run into issues with PPA's if they rely on a large amount of dependencies, but something like GIT should be painless. [14:53] In this case it was definitely painless. [14:53] I just need to be sure and note it in our install docs. [14:54] addle: you are always online? [14:54] Jagst3r15: its in the partner repo. due to the licences [14:54] how to enable that? [14:55] for anyone in the same boat as me, in qemu, to open ports or remap, simply add -redir tcp:INPORT::OUTPORT to your qemu line [14:55] WACOMalt: post it on a qemu wiki if you can find one :) [14:56] Jagst3r15: did you even read the advises given to you? [14:56] lol, yeah if I can find one [14:56] WACOMalt: or similar, spread knowledge [14:56] Jagst3r15: if so, read them again, the solution was altready linked to you [15:00] is anyone of you dabbling around with source engine games on an AMD gpu right now? if so, any recommendations for the driver to use?

[15:01] natively [15:03] greenie: I won't lie I didn't have the issues you described [15:03] seems it's fixed in the upcoming 13.6 release, but that's still a few weeks away [15:03] Captain_Proton: I was actually using openssh! not ssh. Removed openssh-server, reconfigured the eth interface with a new address. Thanks for your help tho. [15:04] what gpu do you have rantic? [15:04] greenie: Primarily I use a GTX 460 but my server machine runs a 7570 [15:05] greenie: I tested half life 2 and cs source around the time steam came out of beta and they ran great [15:05] hm... 5670 here. but i googled around a bit and it seems to be a issue for some people when they play source games with 13.x drivers. especially when they use the flashlight === jzheng_ is now known as jzheng [15:06] When I compile something from source and it goes to a place like /opt/program/bin/, how do I allow it to be called globally (like any other command)? === jzheng is now known as jzheng_afk [15:06] greenie: maybe you should get a better card. [15:06] yeah if you used the driver that ships with ubuntu atm you were probably using 12.something :D [15:06] Frogging|work: You'll need to add it to your path [15:07] maybe i should, but not until star citizen pearce [15:07] haha [15:07] rantic: Okay [15:07] Frogging|work: If you're unfamilair with the process you can throw /opt/program/bin into your bashrc or export PATH=$PATH:/opt/program/bin [15:07] Lol, I was only kidding. [15:08] Aight, thanks [15:08] xeberdee, no problem! :) [15:08] just thought i'd ask around here to save me the whole "trying out the drivers one by one" thing [15:08] where can I hv hp beat driver for ubuntu?

[15:51] You still using unity? [15:51] Did you guys hear my question [15:51] Semper: me? [15:51] Semper: thanks for volunteering your time for free, can i ask you a question about UBUNTU? [15:51] jrib: multiarch just returns 'foreign-architecture i386' [15:52] basiclas-: and my first question? [15:52] yeah skrusty [15:52] I've been setting up a new machine that has not played nice with Ubuntu. I've booted and installed (via the -server iso as the only working route) to a workable setting, and have finally managed to get the proprietary drivers of nvidia working. Yay, but by 2.5 days of work. [15:52] nommer, go for it [15:52] brb [15:52] However, in the ensuing apt-get remove and apt-get install storm, I seem to have removed unity. That is, when I login through the unity-greeter interface, I'm presented with a blank desktop. What package do I install to get it back? [15:52] i wans't using any dekstop manager before [15:52] jrib: i know nothing about errors [15:52] hmm [15:53] i just apt-get install ubuntu-desktop [15:53] that will be unity skrusty [15:53] basiclas-: delete /etc/dpkg/dpkg.cfg.d/multiarch [15:53] I think unity tweaker needs to be installed. [15:53] ok [15:53] So fire up the app center [15:53] Why does pulseaudio periodically break when running certain windows applications concurrently with an mp3 file, but only sometimes, defying all logic? [15:53] Semper: two mins (thanks by the way) [15:53] software center that is [15:53] Why does pulseaudio periodically break when running certain windows applications concurrently with an mp3 file, but only sometimes, defying all logic? @ semper [15:53] basiclas-: afterwards, pastebin contents of /var/lib/dpkg/arch [15:53] sometimes it works fine [15:53] what windows apps? [15:53] are you using WINE? [15:53] skrusty: you may be interested in this Wikipedia explanation: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unity_(user_interface) [15:53] It doesnt matter the apps, its apps that have sound [15:53] Sometimes the windows apps sound will just break [15:54] windows as in microsoft? [15:54] or windows as in desktop applications? [15:54] k1l: http://pastebin.com/M22Wqay6 [15:54] Yes i run some of their softwares on my UBUNTU [15:54] But periodically the sound in their applications will just break [15:54] defying all logic [15:54] Well nommer that is a question for WINE gurus I think. [15:54] I believe i am being harassed [15:54] It will depend on a lot of things. [15:54] jrib: that file did not exist [15:54] i think it depends on the government not leaving me alone [15:55] hello, (kubuntu) i made a mistake and uninstalled some services which were enabling me to Sleep/Hibernate, now i don't have these buttons anymore; instead i sleep my computer by using the command: "dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest="org.freedesktop.UPower" /org/freedesktop/UPower org.freedesktop.UPower.Suspend", but when i come back the screen is not locked; so, how can i restore the sleep/hibernate button, or how can [15:55] do you think thats possible? [15:55] basiclas-: what file? [15:55] Unlikely nommer [15:55] more likely that WINE isn't fully compatible with the windows progams and is having some issues. [15:55] Semper: They hover a drone over my house every night, transmit dreams of joining the marine corps, or of them murdering my family, shock my entire body with microwave energy until sometimes i cant breathe, all because i said the wrong thing online [15:55] I'm trying to choose between the new MacBook Air (the 12 hour battery life/Haswell 1.7Ghz i7) and a MacBook Pro with a 2.9Ghz i7; I'll mainly be using Ubuntu under parallels; anybody know if the Air will cause any issues, with the new chip and slower Ghz? [15:56] Then harass me via microwave voices about my computer usage [15:56] I suggest asking people who know more about running your apps under wine. [15:56] So i think i should ask gov employees [15:56] Instead of wine dev [15:56] dont u [15:56] huh [15:56] In which case nommer, I would suggest seeing a mental health specialist.

[15:57] Ok, is there a ubuntu iso without selinux? [15:57] pre installed? [15:57] yep [15:57] nommer: ubuntu doesn't use selinux by defualt [15:57] default even [15:57] I know it doesnt use it [15:57] But its on there [15:57] why? [15:57] nommer: I don't believe it's installed by default [15:57] Try visiting wineHQ and checking your apps for issues. [15:57] Its not installed then why are the files present [15:57] for selinux [15:57] ? [15:57] it's in the repos but I don't think it's part of the default [15:57] nommer: which files ? [15:57] (it maybe installed by default) [15:57] I have selinux folders [15:57] in my default installs [15:57] nommer: be specific. [15:58] That is prettys epcific [15:58] specific* [15:58] nommer: give a full path... [15:58] !enter > nommer [15:58] nommer, please see my private message [15:58] sure [15:58] !info selinux [15:58] which ISO, which installer what path.

Version 1:0.11 (raring), package size 10 kB, installed size 82 kB [15:58] it's in universe [15:58] I doubt that's a default install [15:58] it is [15:58] ikonia, is it part of apparmour? [15:58] Semper: no [15:58] in which case I have no idea how it got on there. [15:58] My defualt install has selinux folders. One moment plase [15:59] it was default in /etc/selinux === rose is now known as Guest39051 [15:59] right therei n /etc/selinux [15:59] nommer: what files are there ? [15:59] semanage.conf [15:59] if i looked harder im sure id find the selinux.so files [15:59] so whats the deal [16:00] ? [16:00] why is there a selinux folder in /etc/selinux and a semanage.conf file if its default not installed [16:00] ? [16:01] nommer: could you please tone it dont to a technical and not emotional level? [16:01] Emotional? [16:01] I'm being highly technical here [16:01] nommer: I don't believe it's default, I'm just checking, hold on please. [16:01] Could i get an answer [16:01] sure [16:01] nommer: it's a universe package, so I'd be surprised if it was part of the default instlal [16:01] nommer: you are going mad because its from the NSA. thats it. [16:01] No, I'm mad because its present on my hard drive [16:01] And i was told it wasn't going to be in the install [16:01] we'll considering all the nsa has done, id be concerned too [16:02] Thank you johnny [16:02] nommer, k1l, ikonia: passwd seems to depend on libsemanage1. I'm not familiar with it but it seems to just be able to manage selinux; it's not selinux itself [16:02] Jrib [16:02] If you delete the selinux.so [16:02] even though its not present [16:02] supposeldy [16:02] guess swhat [16:02] nommer: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.

Powering off via the power button and back on again lets it boot reliably on the second try. I haven't noticed anything suspicious in the logs, but I haven't busted out a fine toothed comb or anything yet. If anyone has a good lead on where I should start looking into this it would be helpful. Could eve [16:03] jrib: yeah, looking at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Security/Features#SELinux [16:03] Im saying even though selinux is not installed , you can't log into ubuntu without the files being present, the login script is dependent upon SELINUX [16:03] nommer: I think you're being deliberately confrontational. Do you have an actual question, that has an answer which will satisfy you? [16:03] Am i wrong? [16:03] That is my question blazemore [16:03] nommer: yes, you are very wrong [16:03] Ok how? [16:03] nommer: you're being vague again, saying "the files". [16:03] nommer: Yes you are wrong, that is the answer :) [16:03] nommer: what file did you delete [16:03] Ok i deleted the file selinux.so.1 [16:03] nommer: where is that [16:03] Without se linux being installed [16:03] nommer: full path. [16:03] And then [16:03] i couldnt log into my hd [16:03] !enter | nommer [16:03] nommer: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line. Don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! [16:04] nommer: if you don't stop pressing enter, we're just going to remove you from the channel. [16:04] basiclas-: what file did not exist? [16:04] libselinux1 seems to be installed too but that seems to just provide some sort of api for selinux apps [16:05] jrib: /var/lib/dpkg/arch [16:05] he probably wanted to know is se linux was installed and or activated [16:05] iirc ubuntu is preparated to be used with selinux. but its not installed or working. same for debian [16:05] nice [16:05] k1l: I'm just checking now, I'll confirm it in a few minutes [16:05] basiclas-: « dpkg --version; uname -a; lsb_release -a » on a pastebin please [16:06] i feel better on that note, and no, i dont trust nsa, look at what they did to windows. [16:06] k1l: right, that seems to be the case [16:06] jrib: http://pastebin.com/JpQyAkai [16:06] so other programs maybe need selinux for special actions (like passwd and apparmor or ufw) and that for there are some files to prepare for that case. but you still need to install selinux to make that go active [16:07] basiclas-: I told you to delete /etc/dpkg/dpkg.cfg.d/multiarch [16:07] WHy was i kicked out? [16:07] nommer: because you didn't stop abusing the enter key [16:07] I was asking about why SELINUX is required to log into ubuntu even if its not installed, if you delete the selinux which is not installed supposedly you cannot log in. [16:07] Why is this? [16:08] nommer: I will no longer comment on your questions until you stop being vague [16:08] nommer: The next thing you say better be the full path of the file you deleted [16:08] nommer: as I said, I don't believe that is the case, if you hold on I'll run a test case with you === mikestewart is now known as ms|2sb-brb [16:08] absolute noob question. don't hit me… when in xbmc it starts in fullscreen. what's the key command to toggle it to window view?

[16:08] SteveBell1: backslash \ [16:08] !enter > nommer [16:08] nommer, please see my private message [16:08] jrib: ok done [16:09] basiclas-: output of « dpkg --print-foreign-architectures » ? [16:09] Is there an easy way to migrate my ubuntu from my ssd to my harddrive that allready contains file? [16:09] SteveBell1: It took me ages to find that myself, and I found it by accident one day [16:09] Johnny_Linux: there is no need to go mad just because the NSA is mentioned anywhere. stick to the facts and give the people some time to exxplain [16:09] I'm not going to search for the selinux.so file for you -- it is the file that the login script is dependent upon. You already know this. [16:09] lolcat: You could just shrink the partition on the hard-drive, and install Ubuntu into the free space [16:09] Im asking why its required for the login script [16:09] nommer: you deleted the file [16:09] nommer: which file did you delete [16:09] selinux.so.1 [16:09] nommer: I'm about to test it [16:09] nommer: where is that file [16:10] jrib: don't know if you're interested in this but, everytime i try to install/remove/upgrade i get skype : Depends: skype-bin but it is not installable [16:10] I don't know. [16:10] i wasnt going mad, but, i do know how and what the nsa is about, but, again, thanks for the reply. [16:10] basiclas-: yep, that's what we are about to fix [16:10] lolcat: You wouldn't be "migrating" it though [16:10] blazemore: backslash sign is on the key next to the number zero at the top row. so shift ctrl that key?!? [16:10] blazemore: Why mess with partitions? Can't I just copy the system files, install grub and then reboot? [16:10] SteveBell1: oh... [16:10] netbook... [16:10] SteveBell1: I don't know, on a UK keyboard it's just its own key without any modifiers [16:10] can you guys help me get TF2 running on my new desktop? Getting major image glitches when i try to play, everything freezes, then loads really slowly. HD 7750, FX4100. Thank you [16:10] ah man. this is hard stuff :P [16:11] nommer, ikonia, find/grep reports it is in /lib/arch-linux-gnu/libselinux.so.1 [16:11] jrib: ok so i ran dpkg --print-foreign-architectures , no output, is that ok? [16:11] lolcat: In my experience, the effort required moving Ubuntu from one hard drive / computer to another is far more than just doing a fresh installation and spending a little bit of time setting it back up [16:11] yes cipherboy [16:11] my question now is [16:11] how can i log into my ubuntu after deleting it [16:11] basiclas-: that's fine. Now we're going to enable multiarch with i386 for you. You're on amd64, correct? [16:12] nommer, ikonia, also interesting to note: lsof | grep 'selinux.so.1'...look at how many processes use it [16:12] are there alternative login scripts? [16:12] nommer: stop [16:12] jrib: derrrr, how do i check? [16:12] nommer: I'm doing the user test now [16:12] blazemore: how is cp -ax * /media/something more work than a reinstall? [16:12] Ikonia im asking cipherboy a question is that ok with you sir/ [16:12] nommer: you deleted a file - which file did you delete and from which directory [16:12] lolcat: Wait, what exactly do you want to do? [16:12] nommer: no - it's not as you're just repeating the same thing over and over [16:12] Im talking to cipherboy [16:12] Cipherboy - [16:12] basiclas-: uname -a actually tells us, so I just checked and you are indeed on amd64. Now let's tell dpkg to also let you install i386 packages. Issue the command: « dpkg --add-architecture i386 » [16:12] Is there a way to remove selinux.so and replace the login script dependent on it [16:12] jrib: 64 bit yes, amd or not i dont remember [16:13] lolcat: You currently have a PC with two hard drives: an SSD and a hard drive. Ubuntu is installed on the SSD, and there is one partition on the other drive with data on it? [16:13] So i can use my ubuntu? [16:13] blazemore: amd64 is just the name of the architecture [16:13] blazemore: Yes, I think the SSD is failing so I want to trim it and run badblocks [16:13] lolcat: You want it to end up such that Ubuntu is installed on the hard drive along with your data, and the SSD is empty [16:13] blazemore: yes [16:13] lolcat: You can do both of those without harming your data, but do a backup first [16:13] nommer: I'll tell you once I've done the test [16:13] so I can TRIM the SSD and then run badblocks [16:13] jrib: ok done [16:13] nommer: where are you removing the file from [16:13] blazemore: Do share why I can't [16:14] lolcat: Yes if your SSD supports TRIM. The Arch Wiki is a good resource [16:14] nommer: your question was explained while you were kicked because of flooding with your enter key [16:14] basiclas-: now run « sudo apt-get update » [16:14] I said you *can* do both of those, lolcat :) [16:14] !irclogs | nommer [16:14] nommer: Official channel logs can be found at http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/ . LoCo channels are now logged there too. [16:14] im removing the NSA SELINUX.SO.1 file from my hard drive and when i do it then i can't log into ubuntu but ubuntu says its not installed [16:14] nommer: Why are you avoiding the question "Where is selinux.so.1 located?" [16:14] nommer: this is the file time I'll ask you before I ban you [16:14] jrib: ok done [16:15] Johnny_Linux: see who is again going mad? [16:15] nommer: where is the file you are deleting located [16:15] /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libselinux.so.1 [16:15] ^ [16:15] yes [16:15] Semper: I'm not aksing you [16:15] basiclas-: output of « apt-cache policy skype{,-bin} » ? [16:15] lol, dont point the finger at me [16:15] That is using a great great deal of processes [16:15] What version of Ubuntu are you using, nommer ? [16:15] nommer: where is the file you are deleting located [16:15] no one knows how to toggle fullscreen / window mode? [16:16] Semper: removing the stock nvidia drivers and installing nvidia's own seems to have fixed it [16:16] ikonia : /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libselinux.so.1 [16:16] nommer: its not activated nor installed. but other programs are prepared to work with selinux. so there are some files on your system. but again its not installed and not activated [16:16] nommer: and one final question, can you show me the output of "uname -a" please [16:16] Weird skrusty. [16:16] jrib: http://pastebin.com/GL4LBZYM [16:16] yeah :/ [16:16] Nice you got a fix though. [16:16] nommer: so stop going mad on reading selinux is from NSA [16:16] k1l and ikonia: That doesnt make sense if i can't log into ubuntu after deleting it [16:16] SteveBell1: I just googled "XBMC keyboard shortcuts" and clicked this. I'm sorry Google isn't working for you :( but here you go http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Keyboard [16:16] nommer: and one final question, can you show me the output of "uname -a" please [16:16] It obviously is installed and rquired [16:16] yeah, just thought i'd let ya know, cheers anyway! :) [16:16] required* [16:16] No, I don't trust you now. [16:16] nommer: I'm about to test it for you - answer the questions [16:16] you lied to me. [16:16] nommer: obviously you are not listening [16:16] lol nommer [16:17] blazemore: found https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KeyboardShortcuts but that doesn't mention fullscreen [16:17] for the logs: again: some other programs are prepared for using selinux and need those files. [16:17] SteveBell1: It's an XBMC keyboard shortcut, not Ubuntu [16:17] Well, I figured it was a longshot, I'm heading out, but if anyone thinks of anything about booting every other time, I'll be checking the logs tonight so just putting it here will be fine even though I'll be gone a while. [16:17] blazemore: alright, you should be able to get apt-get to install skype-bin now [16:17] Not me jrib [16:18] basiclas-: alright, you should be able to get apt-get to install skype-bin now (sorry blazemore ) [16:18] What is libselinux.so.1 ? [16:18] !info libselinux1 [16:18] libselinux1 (source: libselinux): SELinux runtime shared libraries. In component main, is required. Version 2.1.9-5ubuntu1 (raring), package size 60 kB, installed size 189 kB [16:18] So it is a required package, what does it do? [16:19] Since it has its fingers in every process. [16:19] Semper: No one said that. [16:19] How do you install ruby on ubuntu [16:19] Jagst3r15, synaptics [16:19] jrib: http://pastebin.com/u4qJNL5i [16:19] thats the error i recieved [16:20] In component main, is required. [16:20] basiclas-: what command caused this and what was the full output? [16:20] Semper: It's the SeLinux libraries, basically provides an interface to selinux [16:20] how to I open the software center ? [16:20] What's that mean then Pici [16:20] Semper: But selinux isn't installed in Ubuntu [16:20] Semper: other programs are prepared to work with selinux. they error if that files are deleted. that doesnt mean selinux is installed or activated [16:20] Just wondering why is has fingers in many pies is all. [16:20] jrib: http://pastebin.com/scpKh4rj [16:21] Semper: pam is configured to use selinux if it exists, but it uses the shared libraries to determine that. So if you remove them, like nommer did, login will fail. [16:21] martianlobster: Click the Ubuntu button in the top left corner, search for "software" and you should see the software centre icon come up in the search results [16:21] Semper: what fingers does it have it's pies in [16:21] everything's in there :) [16:21] blazemore: thanks! [16:21] Semper: that is the concept of selinux or other security plans [16:21] lsof | grep 'selinux.so.1' [16:21] Semper: just think of what a firewall get the fingers on [16:21] Semper: that's just open files [16:21] basiclas-: you have no idea why this comes up? Did you do anything before to try to fix your skype issues? [16:21] Off home now, goodbye all, and good luck with your problems [16:22] have a good one [16:22] jrib: i dont have skype issues per se. It works fine, I just cant install remove or upgrade anything else. Its always that skype error message about skype-bin [16:22] basiclas-: in the meantime, pastebin « apt-cache policy libglib2.0-0 » [16:24] Hi - I'm trying to move from MSAccess to MySQL. Is there a recommended form editor for MySQL (apart from Base)? [16:24] jrib: http://pastebin.com/MzhXc2Uv [16:25] awful lots got that file open then [16:26] basiclas-: is this an upgrade from 11.10? === ms|2sb-brb is now known as mikestewart [16:27] jrib: I recieved this computer about 1.5 months ago, it had preinstalled linux 12.04 (it's a zareason) [16:28] basiclas-: I see. It's strange because the multiarch setup changed in 12.04 and that file you had from before was a remnant from pre-12.04 days [16:28] jrib: it was 'brand new' from them [16:29] basiclas-: what's output of « apt-cache policy dpkg ». Also, here is a relevant bug I haven't finished reading through https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dpkg/+bug/1015329 [16:29] Ubuntu bug 1015329 in dpkg (Ubuntu) "dpkg fails to run after update (error: file triggers record mentions illegal package name `libgtk2.0-0' (for interest in file `/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/immodules'): ambiguous package name 'libgtk2.0-0' with more than one installed instance)" [Critical,Fix released] [16:29] i saw some dates in a file somewhere dating back from last summer, so i guess it's been in storage for a while :) [16:29] basiclas-: what's in /var/lib/dpkg/arch? [16:30] ikonia, any reason why so many processes have that file open? [16:30] it's checked as part of pam [16:30] that seems to be the core thing [16:31] jrib: http://tny.cz/32e9e473 [16:32] basiclas-: erm, right this dpkg isn't even from precise repositories it seems [16:32] strange [16:32] in /arch, amd64 [16:32] basiclas-: did you have debian repositories enabled? [16:32] its still an se library that shouldnt be there surely? [16:32] i386 [16:32] sorry so that was in /arch amd64 [16:32] i386 [16:32] teh fuck :D they were both in arch, , [16:33] jrib: i will check [16:33] basiclas-: Please don't swear in here [16:33] basiclas-: that dpkg version is exactly what's in debian wheezy currently [16:34] IdleOne: ok sorry [16:34] jrib: he had some debian sid sources active [16:34] Is there a command line version of nautilus 'Extract here'? I mean, universal extracting command that would take care of bz2, gunzips etc [16:35] jrib: with regards to checking debian sources, im not sure how to read the source lists [16:35] !info unp | ironhalik [16:35] ironhalik: unp (source: unp): unpack (almost) everything with one command.

I have nullmailer installed for the sole reason of mailing me logwatch logs, which works.. I'm not sure what my server is trying to send? Please take a look.. http://pastebin.com/gZrUJsL1 [16:36] thanks a lot jrib [16:36] saved me all those -xvzf's ;> [16:36] ironhalik: you can omit "z" with tar now (it's smart) :D [16:37] jrib: "smart" ;> [16:37] not as smart as unp, it seems ;> [16:37] Vec_: the log suggests the subdomain box.vecbox.com does not exist [16:37] ciao [16:37] Vec_: I suspect you are being hit with scatter back spam === Lajjla is now known as nevzets [16:38] it looks like you've got a messed up mail server config and have configured it to relay so you have a route out and getting scatter back spam [16:38] !list [16:38] tony98: No warez here!

If you're looking for a channel, see « /msg ubottu !alis ». [16:38] daftykins: Sure, but that means that some program is trying to send mail with that configuration -- im not sure where to start in figuring that out. [16:38] ah ok [16:39] ikonia: As far as me messed up the mailconfig that might be the case. However, logwatch and fail2ban sends me mails with no problem. [16:39] Vec_: errr that means nothing [16:39] Vec_: it looks like it's scatter back spam [16:39] haha ok [16:39] your ISP will not welcome them geting blacklisted === arg220 is now known as mm12 [16:40] hi everyone [16:40] ikonia: Im not sure what you mean exactly :x [16:40] mm12: hi [16:40] i guess so, [16:40] well thanks for trying :) [16:41] Vec_: I send a mail to fake@yourdomain.com with a reply to address of james@mydomain.com - fake@yourdomain.com doesn't exist, so the mail server bounces it to james@mydomain.com - thus spamming james through your mail server [16:41] hi iam trying to set the fan speed for my gigabyte 7970..and its giving me response. [16:41] Please run 'aticonfig --initial' first or modify your configuration file manually and run aticonfig again. [16:41] Vec_: I suspect you are running null mailer as root ?

[16:42] sudo what u mean === g_byers is now known as gbyers[Away] [16:42] mm12: put sudo in front of the command [16:42] sudo aticonfig --initial [16:43] yea [16:43] basiclas-: yeah, you can checksum the disc to make sure it's ok and then use it. Or if you want something more recent (but not LTS), you can use 13.04 [16:43] ikonia: Oh. i c. But how is that a likely scenario? I dont really understand. This just seems like i've missconfigured some package on my server to send mails from "root@box.vecbox.com" (which does not exsist) -- vecbox.com however, does. [16:43] thanks X-Sleepy-X [16:43] Vec_: what do you mean how is that likely, it's a well known spam tactic [16:43] mm12: yw :) [16:45] I got a new Nvidia card. a gtx460. I have the gtx 260 in the machine already. would I reinstall the drivers, or update the configuration files for the new card ? [16:45] neither [16:45] just turn off, swap, boot [16:45] Vec_: if you believe it's a process on your machine, check the crontab, clear the mail queue, shutdown processes and find the one sending mail [16:45] it does work, but i experienced some obvious issues. so i am trying to troubleshoot before i do anything [16:45] ikonia: I've installed nullmailer yes, if it runs as root or not i have no clue. Im pretty new at this. [16:46] nottura: what happened? [16:46] hmm, ok. card must be somehow damaged. froze in game at a very high fps a couple times. MB seemed hot. and on a couple of reboots, it sad soft error CPU core 3 not responding [16:47] i am soret of scared to stick it back in and try to get to the bottom of it [16:48] ikonia: Im pretty certain its a process on my system trying to send a mail.. my root crontab has MAILTO="", my fail2ban works with mail, my logwatch works with mail. I have rsnapshot installed, but i'm not sure if that program wants to send mail by default [16:48] gtx470 supposedly runs hot. maybe i pushed it to hard [16:48] too* [16:48] Is there a way to setup ubuntu as an "tor" gateway, so if i set my default route to that machine, all data will be "anonimized" [16:49] Eagleman, socks proxy [16:49] probably [16:49] !list [16:50] paolo65: No warez here!

[16:51] i would suggest pulling the ethernet cable and go live in the woods with the wolves :) [16:51] lol [16:52] ikonia: It just makes sense.. Look at the log; something on my machine tries to send mails with a wrong address which is a default one "root@host.domain.com" [16:53] Vec_: sorry you're not applying logic [16:53] Semper: no, that endpoints can sniff egressing data [16:53] Vec_: does this happen at regular intervals ? [16:53] ikonia: I've probably derped and not configured it to be root@vecbox.com" [16:53] is there a good way to do something like an 'apt-get -y upgrade' that would answer yes to the initial question asking if I want to proceed but no the questions such as configuration file changes? [16:53] Vec_: is vecbox.com your domain [16:53] daftykins, ah [16:53] well only if you don't use SSL [16:53] ikonia: :/ Every minute, i just went into /var/spool/nullmailer/queue and deleted the 2 messages that were there (since 9.july) (they were logwatch logs...) [16:53] ikonia: vecbox.com is mine yessir [16:53] I thought you were talking about being identified if you acted anonymously [16:53] Vec_: ahhh ok, [16:54] hi [16:54] i.e. not sending personally identifying material [16:54] how do u dual boot ubuntu with win xp? [16:54] Vec_: what's in the content of the messages, does it giveyou a clue ? [16:54] ikonia: Please bear with me, im so confused with linux and explaining this stuff still that i leave out key information.. [16:54] kusu, google wubi [16:54] it will make it really easy for you to try it [16:54] wubi??? [16:54] yes [16:54] WUBI [16:54] with wubi you can install linux within windows [16:54] kinda [16:55] can you guys help me get TF2 running on my new desktop? Getting major image glitches when i try to play, everything freezes, then loads really slowly. HD 7750, FX4100. Thank you [16:55] greenie, not kinda [16:55] you can [16:55] ikonia: tbh, since it was 9july it probably tried sending them before i got the configuration done OR SOMETHING (tm) and then been stuck spamming those mails ever since.. I deleted them from the spool now without reading (it was from logwatch@vecbox.com so its just log summarys) [16:55] Vec_: is there not more mails being created ? [16:56] kusa after installation ubuntu, hold shift @ boot to select win xp or ubuntu [16:56] do i select partitions manually to install ubuntu or do i delete win xp partitions if i wanna dual boot ubuntu with win xp? [16:56] ikonia: Checking now, btw whats the "move to bottom of page"-command in less? [16:56] kusu: with wubi you can circumvent that [16:56] Vec_: there isn't one that I'm aware of [16:56] it just stores all the linux data into sort of an image file [16:56] on your ntfs partition [16:57] Vec_: besides the end key [16:57] kusa, you get an option to install side by side, and to decrease a partition to make space [16:57] ikonia: Ok. I checked the logs now, and 18:51 was the last error trying to send mail. Ill wait a few more minutes and check again [16:57] Vec_: ok, I'm stepping away from my desk for a few minutes [16:57] how would I run this script sirs? https://gist.github.com/anonymous/5713887 [16:58] I have the file on my desktop [16:58] saiarcot895: end and home does not work in less (im trying it as we speak) [16:58] anyone know how to install drivers for my HD 7750?

[17:04] I just switched to Ubuntu and I don't know exactly how to work the terminal [17:05] SirRock: just describe your issue [17:05] SirRock: which version of ubuntu you are using now? [17:05] I installed a program called "protege" and the installer ran, but now I can't find the program. [17:06] I see the folder and a bunch of files for it, but i click on the script and it doesn't work [17:06] 13.04 [17:06] I think [17:06] SirRock: go to terminal and type protege [17:06] says command not found [17:07] SirRock: how did you install it? [17:07] http://protege.stanford.edu/download/protege/4.0/installanywhere/ [17:07] I went to linux instructions and typed in sh ./install_protege_4.0.2.bin [17:07] SirRock: have you install it by Ubuntu Software Center? [17:08] Nah, I'll go see if its in there [17:08] SirRock: it's not in the Software Center [17:08] SirRock: did you load anything from the webpage or did you use the programs that ubuntu ships? [17:08] SirRock: did you follow the instructions on the page? [17:09] shahan, have you tried sudo apt-get clean [17:09] I followed the instructions on the page. I installed some program that lets me open the terminal in that folder with a right click, but besdies that nothing else [17:09] ikonia: The trying to send mail outward with wrong sender address seized now that i removed 2 mails from the nullmailer's spool. It was hammering every minute, and now its been quiet for a good 10 minutes so i assume its all well now. [17:09] SirRock, that is an old version see > http://protege.stanford.edu/download/protege/4.3/installanywhere/Web_Installers/ [17:09] euxneks: no [17:09] shahan, that might help? [17:10] OOOO [17:10] euxneks: okey. let me chk [17:10] if that doesn't work then maybe try sudo apt-get update --fix-missing [17:10] shahan, though I think you've probably already tried that eh? :) [17:10] SirRock: at any rate, after you download it, in the terminal, type in "sh ./install_protege_4.3.bin" (without the quotes) [17:11] I'm downloading that now. but I see the scripts for protege, but every time i click on them it just opens up a text editor [17:11] euxneks: no. I didnt tried it before. [17:11] euxneks: what will it do my systme? [17:11] SirRock: try opening up the Dash (start menu key or the Ubuntu icon at the top left corner) and typing in Protege [17:11] shahan, it might fix it, I doubt it would cause any problems [17:12] I tried that and only the folder and file named protege pop up [17:13] how do i access ubuntu server from another ubuntu server over Internet with gui [17:13] SirRock, if you installed correct, http://localhost:8080/webprotege/ >>> http://protegewiki.stanford.edu/wiki/WebProtegeAdminGuide [17:13] i dont think I'm running a firewall, but i cannot connect to the mysql server on my desktop. I started up ufw and allowed 3306/tcp but i still cannot make a simple connection (like $ telnet host 3306) [17:13] is there some default firewall running?

It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX [17:14] LIke, I found the file.

[17:17] jrib, can you pls tell me which is best vnc server [17:17] samba35: read the wiki and use the one that you want [17:18] samba35, SSH [17:18] :P [17:18] how to get sleep and hibernate? [17:18] ok [17:18] thanks [17:18] Use SSH in order to remotely use the desktops [17:18] vastly superior to any VNC. [17:18] Semper, can you pls give some more details [17:19] any help here? [17:19] Getting a guide [17:19] ssh has nothing to do w vnc [17:19] kelly: i don't think it matters much [17:19] QTPieMan: I believe sleep is equivalent to suspend [17:19] as long as it's not fat32 ;) [17:19] greenie, BTW , sometimes i get partclone faild ? but this error message happen when i want to make a backup from ubuntu in vbox to externel harddrive [17:20] saiarcot895: yup suspend [17:20] hey folks. I am getting intermittent connectivity to stuff on my LAN, just upgraded the motherboard and I am suspecting driver issues for the on-board ethernet. Here's a paste of lspci and lsmod (relevant parts): http://paste.ubuntu.com/5884910/ [17:20] This should help: http://narnia.cs.ttu.edu/drupal/node/132 [17:21] Hey guys. I'm having some trouble installing 13.04 on a new Toshiba Satellite S70 (dual-boot with Windows 8). Anybody have any experience with that? [17:21] QTPieMan: as for hibernate, see https://help.ubuntu.com/12.10/ubuntu-help/power-hibernate.html [17:21] saircot895: Here's what I have so far: http://postimg.org/image/jc3k7pjfl/. I click on the Protege script and it won't run. I type the command in the terminal and it can't find it [17:21] found some posts saying there may be some issues since the 8169 driver is being used instead of 8168. Would that be responsible for ping, ssh, etc. connections working in and out [17:21] ? [17:21] hm no idea, didn't try that yet [17:21] saiarcot895: ok [17:21] k1l, I am pretty sure I could get individual core temperatures with speedfan / coretemp in windows. [17:21] SirRock, if you installed correct, http://localhost:8080/webprotege/ >>> http://protegewiki.stanford.edu/wiki/WebProtegeAdminGuide [17:22] My major initial problem is that the screen is completely dark. If I hold it up to the light and squint at an angle, I can just make out the install window. Function brightness keys don't seem to do anything. [17:22] I'll try this now [17:22] BenjaminRH: i have seen that [17:23] this is #ubuntu [17:23] holstein: have you seen any solutions? :) [17:23] BenjaminRH: i actually have an EEEpc like that, intel hardware surprisingly.. i can use totally different function keys [17:23] hbeck, what symptoms === dziegler is now known as dziegler_off [17:23] BenjaminRH: also, this happens are reboot, from the bios screen or where ever [17:24] try blacklisting the module you do not want to load [17:24] holstein: yep. that's my problem [17:24] euxneks: sudo apt-get clean has removed all stff i downloaded :( [17:24] BenjaminRH: its affecting the bios screen? [17:24] BenjaminRH, get it fully installed and use brightness config [17:24] if it affects the bios [17:24] it is most likely a broken screen [17:24] Semper: I can't see anything to install it, unfortunately [17:24] you must have a broken screen [17:24] the screen certainly isn't broken, Windows runs find [17:24] fine* [17:24] BenjaminRH: you could have a bad backlight [17:24] LucidDreamZzZ: Ethernet comes up "ok" but connectivity is in and out. Ping will get "destination host unreachable" for a while, then work, then fail again [17:24] even on the lowest brightness setting you should be able to see it [17:24] now it asks for downloading 288MB again [17:25] this is just from one local box to another [17:25] Semper: maybe it's a combination of the backlight not being on and the brightness at 0 or 1? [17:25] BenjaminRH: when it was happening to me, i would pull the battery and unplug [17:25] hbeck, thats exactly what i was not hoping for :( [17:25] guys just installed the ati driver for my HD 7750, TF2 running better than before but it's still lagging quite a bit. what can i do? [17:25] BenjaminRH: but, i found the odd function key combo as well [17:25] Hello guys, this script is coded in which language? http://pastebin.com/0cw2c8QW [17:25] matban, is it the AMD Prop driver? [17:26] holstein: ooh! What's the function key combo? [17:26] BenjaminRH: what i usually do in those situations is remove the hard drive so i can force power off and test without damaging anything [17:26] http://pastebin.com/0cw2c8QW <--- Which language this script is coded in? [17:26] BenjaminRH: quite random [17:26] holstein: sir, http://pastebin.com/0cw2c8QW <--- Which language this script is coded in? [17:26] hbeck, i would keep trying in here idk, but blacklisting the module that is not supposed to load might fix [17:26] !patience | chadthedude [17:26] chadthedude: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you.

[17:28] LucidDreamZzZ: hooray... I'll have to see if it is an issue windows-side also (hardware issue or driver issue) [17:28] try their proprietary driver [17:28] fglrx? [17:28] hbeck, yeah not sure hmm [17:28] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AMD_Catalyst#Linux [17:29] google finds several threads talking about the drivers with the NIC in question [17:29] hbeck, try blacklisting see if it loads the 'correct' one instead ? dunno [17:29] OerHeks: I tried "mkdir /data/webprotege" but the terminal says no such file. What should I do? [17:30] LucidDreamZzZ: yup, thanks. Will try that as well as seeing if I can get the proprietary drivers in there.

[17:33] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI [17:33] martinny, that is unlikely [17:34] but not impossible [17:34] Semper: it recommended using the open source version, which is what i did: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonDriver [17:34] Yeah I know. [17:34] Semper: whats the best way to have a expandable FS? [17:35] That open source documentation must be pretty old to think that opensource is still better surely. [17:35] Where can I find a list of packages and versions that are in the repos for Ubuntu 13.04, 13.10? [17:35] they've been working on their own driver making it better for ages. [17:35] wabash, use synaptic package manager [17:35] wabash: http://packages.ubuntu.com [17:35] Semper: In 13.10? I don't have that installed yet!! :) [17:36] Pici: Ok, thank you. It's an online database of sorts? [17:36] wabash: yes [17:36] pici: ok thanks. Looking at it now. [17:36] martinny, I don't know but generally NFS with RAID is a enterprise class hardware and software job. [17:36] Semper: so I should install the flgrx driver? [17:36] I am not an expert however. [17:36] matban, try it at least [17:36] it *should* be better. [17:36] but it isn't "free open source" [17:37] Semper: also what about this guide? http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Raring_Installation_Guide#Installing_Catalyst_Manually_.28from_AMD.2FATI.27s_site.29_BETA.2FEXPERIMENTAL [17:37] matban, that seems accurate and correct [17:38] Semper: ok thanks === ese is now known as pal [17:42] Is there a trick to get pdo-mysql working in 12.04?

Does anyone know how I'd go about setting the screen resolution larger than 1024x768? (I'm running ubuntu in a VM) [17:47] bcows: I think "killall" defaults to sending SIGTERM, which means the apps are responsible for finishing up themselves, they are just told "please finish". Try with -KILL [17:47] sarcasticsimba: Do you know if you are using the vmware Xorg driver? [17:48] adamk: I'm using virtualbox, so I don't think I've got that driver installed. [17:48] first off, try VMWare's "VMWare Player" [17:48] excellent stuff, no extra baggage and really fast [17:49] Is it free or open source? [17:49] free. [17:49] sarcasticsimba: OK, so are you using the vboxvideo driver? [17:49] VirtualBox is fine. If it doesn't what you need, there's no reason to switch. [17:49] ah thanks theadmin!, that worked [17:49] I think VirtualBox is crap [17:49] does, not doesn't. [17:49] that's why I switched, but yes..no reason for you to do the same [17:50] adamk: The only graphics drivers I've got installed should be the nvidia ones I installed after setting up the VM [17:50] Sicp: but vmware isn't free [17:50] VMWare Player is [17:50] And I'm not a fan of anything Windows; this is for a thing I need to do for work.

[17:53] I am viewing phpinfo(); and it says the ini file is processed but it contains no other reference to the PDO [17:54] is it possible to have empathy pop message in 13.04 [17:55] Captain_Proton: pop? Do you mean pop3? If so, Empathy is not an e-mail client, sorry, try Thunderbird, Evolution, KMail... etc [17:55] perhaps you meant a notification? [17:55] Yes [17:55] Ah...

[17:59] lotuspsychje, thanks but I am looking to empathy do a toster popup thing. in older version you could uncheck use notification. but I think they removed it in 13.04.

I do not get two default gateways? [18:38] only 1 default, but you can use 'metric' [18:38] then it wil prioritize, not perfect but all we have [18:38] LucidDreamZzZ: I know this... and have done such... but only one interface's gateway definition applies. (specifically the first one to come up) [18:38] only ONE default route is added for some dumb reason. [18:39] Hi I'm having trouble accessing my tty shells on a lenovo 530w with an nvidia quadro k2000m graphics card. Anyone else have this problem? [18:39] They're black but I can enter commands [18:39] hmm, i have two gateways as well but not set up for second one yet [18:40] LucidDreamZzZ: if you ifup both interfaces... only the 1st gateway will be added to the routing table. [18:40] or rather... the gateway of the first interface to be brought up. [18:40] xentity1x, if it works at all you are lucky, check hardware compatability list [18:40] hello!

[18:55] call me old-fashioned... but I still like to nuke-pave between dists. :D [18:55] yeh I've run update first and runs fine [18:55] TheCompWiz: Right on. [18:55] keep getting this http://pastebin.com/PJF012mW [18:55] i had a horrible time dist-upgrade a while back [18:56] never again [18:56] the web min dependencies i can live with but it apt-get install isn't returning any results [18:56] i.e. i get same as above on sudo apt-get install vsftpd [18:56] webmin? ... you're fired. [18:56] haha [18:57] webmin ok if preinstalled otherwise not worth effort setting it all up [18:57] well its a home server and i liked the way it displays the users and groups :P [18:57] i likethe icons too [18:57] yea [18:57] mainly used it for trouble shooting issues with deluge [18:58] but yeh at the moment apt-get seems broken as it returns no results [18:58] the automatic grub is nice for setting up multiple distros [18:58] Can someone please take a look at this and explain whats happening? I am trying to reinstall apache because it refused to parse php, but apache WONT uninstall :( [18:58] http://paste.ubuntu.com/5885232/ [18:58] i like their isp config thing for pay, but then you might as well get plesk or cpanel or whatever [18:59] is it called apache2? [18:59] that is just the configs [18:59] cantelope: It's removed... [18:59] i thought [19:00] theadmin: then why does the service start, and respond to http requests [19:00] ^ [19:00] cantelope: Now you can also remove the no longer required packages with 'apt-get autoremove', like it told you. [19:01] WIll this run once every two weeks in a cronjob? expr `date +\%W` \% 2 > /dev/null || screen -d -m -S Esxi-Backup /scripts/to/run [19:01] help [19:01] You could try whereis for looking around [19:02] so any ideas why apt-get upgrade isn't working ? ? [19:02] whoami [19:02] lol brb [19:02] i've got broken packages... [19:02] theadmin: what part of apache is removed by that if it still can start and function? [19:03] i have to play video game [19:03] that needs dkpg-reconfigure [19:03] cantelope: I am quite sure that "apache2" is just a metapackage that doesn't actually *do* anything, it just depends on the actual server packages [19:03] Hello people, I have problem with Ubuntu's network, I have set static IP, but reconfigures itself over DHCP to different IP in the background, how is that possible? [19:03] cantelope: So do the autoremove thing [19:05] theadmin: okay, I did that and that got rid of it (seemingly), but then I installed php5 (which autoinstalls apache again) and my php files still download rather than parse. Is there something else I need to do to flush out the old config completely? I know from other clean installs that installing php5 works out of the box for a dev environment [19:05] cantelope: sudo a2enmod php5 ? [19:06] theadmin: "Module php5 already enabled" [19:06] cantelope: ...huh. [19:06] cantelope: Well, you could try purging it altogether ("remove" doesn't get rid of config files, so: sudo apt-get --purge autoremove apache2 ) [19:06] is there somewhere you can track modules? [19:07] cantelope: Then you can reinstall and get the default configs back [19:08] Elisha: when configuring the static IP... did you forget to shutdown the interface first before making changes? .... perhaps dhclient is still running on that interface. [19:08] i think the package is apache, not apache2 [19:08] LucidDreamZzZ: Nope [19:08] idk tho [19:08] no? [19:08] LucidDreamZzZ: "apache" is yet *another* metapackage, lol [19:08] TheCompWiz: that might be the case yes [19:08] LucidDreamZzZ: Doesn't matter which you write [19:08] theadmin: still giving me the same behavior... :\ strange [19:08] wow haha theadmin :) [19:09] TheCompWiz: though I did do restart of networing service [19:09] cantelope: Odd... well... I dunno really :( [19:09] How can i run a cronjob every 2 weeks? [19:09] ps ax |grep dhclient3 & kill the process if you see one listening on your interface [19:09] theadmin: thanks for the help [19:09] vixie-cron or crontab maybe is a good idea for cron issues [19:11] When I add or remove my yubikey, "udevadm monitor --udev" reports many interleaved "add" and "remove" events. E.g. . Is there a udev-related way to prevent this from happening? It's something I have to work around to securely use my yubikey to lock and unlock my screensaver. (Ubuntu 13.04) [19:11] TheCompWiz: yes, there was a dhclient running, thanks [19:11] :) [19:12] When I use find I keep getting gvfs, why is that? [19:12] I am not even looking for that [19:12] I had problem with restarting networking service yesterday, so I deleted the ip addr del ... because it wouldn't do it otherwise [19:12] Or an un-udev-related way? (I copy-and-pasted that question from #udev, where it has been languishing for a while. :-) [19:14] netlar: How are you using find? === dziegler_off is now known as dziegler [19:14] Pici: find -name "nameoffile" [19:15] there are 100 files which name was start with _babinnotes_ to _babinnotes99_ how can i remove the _ underscores from all the 100 files and rest want to be as it is ... please help which command will remove all the _ s [19:15] netlar: and how are you 'getting gvfs'?

[19:17] how can i use mv for all 100 files , did i want to use it one by one ? [19:17] Pici: I guess it is a protected file in my home directory, think I answered my own question, thanks [19:17] pronterface finds it as /dev/ttyUSB0 but Creator can't find it [19:17] hello [19:17] netlar: its because of the way that gvfs works. You can append 2>/dev/null to the end of your command to point stderr to /dev/null [19:18] netlar: It is trying to enter that directory, but it is owned by root. Don't worry about it, unless you think the file you're searching for could be under that directory. [19:18] DJones: done :-) [19:18] babinlonston: assuming you want to remove all underscores from those files: rename 's/_//g' *babinnotes* [19:18] Pici: I don't think that behavior has much to do with gvfs. It is strictly a matter of filesystem permissions and the way "find" works. [19:18] coventry: I was just more curious, was not seeing that in any of the tutorials I have been watching [19:19] coventry: yes, but the permissions thing has to do with the way gvfs works. [19:19] netlar: no worries. [19:19] hello all. can somebody help me ? i installed 2 ntfs drives from a windows pc with movies. i created a share but i can't access it from windows 7 or other notebook [19:19] yes i want to remove all _ from files will this help me rename 's/_//g' *babinnotes* [19:20] babinlonston: yes, that is why I said it. [19:20] Pici: so gvfs is for the gnome file system === _BJFreeman is now known as BJfreeman [19:20] ok wait let me try and give u the result sir [19:21] netlar: yes, gnome's virtual file system thing. [19:22] Pici: I was not sure what you were talking about with the /dev/null stuff [19:22] netlar: That was just to make your find command not show you the errors that it was getting from not being able to access those paths. [19:22] netlar: gvfs is the GUI automount stuff [19:22] babinlonston, why not test it in a new directory with 3-5 files first [19:23] Pici: ahh ok, thanks [19:23] tested with 10 files and not worked for me [19:23] just not even showing error [19:23] could you try access the from a sort of livecd environment and mount the UUID from there in a temorary directory?

[19:57] then? [19:57] HELLO EVERYBODY [19:57] fsck if its mounted read only, or if you are on a live cd. [19:58] I think my filesystem is corrupted [19:58] God_, get a nick that is respectful.

[19:59] dr_willis, when I connect a kingston-usb drive with some files in it, it doesn't show anything, no files no anything, /media is all empty. [19:59] Lanser: Or simply unmount the usb drive and run an fsck on it. [19:59] wildc4rd, ok whatev [19:59] Lanser, again.. TRY MOUNTING the usb by hand, using the proper MOUNT command... [19:59] dr_willis: how? [20:00] Lanser, and try fscking your / partition from a live cd, or recovery console to see if thers any errors [20:00] I don't have a live cd.

[20:06] Dr_willis, I get the pop yahoo in thunderbird by adding android to the server, lol [20:06] I connected 2 different USBs, and nothing is popping up, like my distro isn't detecting them. [20:06] although, lsusb shows it detected them [20:06] but I cannot browse them [20:06] also, /media is completely empty [20:07] Lanser: Please don't hit the enter key every 4 or 5 words [20:07] does ubuntu naturally run a little warm on laptops?

[20:13] Lanser, and for the 3rd time.. try mounting via the command line, using the proper mount commands.. its possible its just the gnome auto-mounting system thats having issues [20:13] !details > Lanzer [20:13] Lanzer, please see my private message [20:13] dr_willis, trash is not popping up [20:13] my filesystem is screwed up [20:13] mount cannot fix it [20:13] what's the main problem here? [20:14] Lanzer, then use the rcovery console or a live cd/usb and fsck yoru filesystem [20:14] mount does not 'fix' currupted filesystems. [20:14] and you are confuseing 2 differnt issues. start with the fscking, then move on to the other issues [20:14] 1. When I connect any USB, nothing shows up, /media is empty, 2. I cannot add anything in my gnome-panels, 3. Nautilus says "cannot handle computer location" [20:14] dr_willis, I cannot enter any USB, and I don't have a live cd. [20:15] my system cannot detect anything [20:15] i am stuck [20:15] Lanzer, 1) plug it in.. 2) read up on that !mount factoid. 3) see if it is in fact SEEN by the dmesg output, 4) mount it via the command line to see if it works [20:15] mount what, dr_willis? [20:15] your USB flash drive. [20:15] my whole entire distro cannot detect anything [20:15] and trash is gone [20:15] I rm'd /media [20:16] and my trash is gone, how can I restore it? [20:16] so put it back? [20:16] sudo mkdir /media/ [20:16] I didn't rm it, I just pressed "remove" [20:16] how? [20:16] trash is gone [20:16] i cannot put trash back, nothing is popping up [20:16] any would you rm /media in the first place.. you just trying random stuff? [20:16] Lanzer: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [20:16] Lanzer, use the command line? you dont need the gui at all to do this stuff. [20:17] * Dr_willis is not even sure HOW you would remove /media/ via the GUI. [20:17] or if you even COULD do it as a user. [20:17] ok, I did "mkdir media" [20:18] that was NOT the command i gave. [20:18] the question is, how can I make my system detect USBs? and how to fix nautilus? it says "nautilus cannot handle computer location" [20:18] media and /media are 2 very differnt things depending on where you are at. [20:18] Lanser, again.. PLUG IN THE USB FLASH.. run 'dmesg' and verify if it is or is not seen.. [20:19] system detecting USB's and gnomes auto-mounting is broken are 2 very differnt 'issues' [20:19] [ 948.734870] sd 10:0:0:0: [sdb] Write Protect is off [20:19] [ 948.734877] sd 10:0:0:0: [sdb] Mode Sense: 23 00 00 00 [20:19] [ 948.735868] sd 10:0:0:0: [sdb] Write cache: disabled, read cache: enabled, doesn't support DPO or FUA [20:19] [ 948.751061] sdb: sdb1 [20:19] [ 948.757618] sd 10:0:0:0: [sdb] Attached SCSI removable disk [20:19] Lanser: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.

I've a trouble. I simple want to install john the ripper program in my debian wheezy. I do: sudo apt-get install john. Everything looks like ok. Installation made successful. After that I simply try to execute command: john, but it says: "bash: john: command not found". Even $man john working, but simple typing john doesnt. What I can do? [20:21] RavAngell, you mean to be asking in #debian perhaps? [20:21] RavAngell, For debial see their channel. [20:21] debian* [20:21] thanks [20:22] bash has some rehash/rescan command to rescan the paths to see whats there also.. [20:22] dr_willis, "fat read failed" [20:22] dr_willis: http://pastebin.com/WPywsFCy [20:22] http://pastebin.com/WPywsFCy <--- is my distro entirely screwed up? [20:23] Lanser, and where/what filesystem is on this usb? [20:23] Lanser, you seem to want to be convinced its 'screwed up' - so just reinstall if you really really want to keep pushing that idea. [20:23] I need to fix my current distro. [20:23] how can I? [20:24] start by running a fsck from the resue/recovery mode - if you think your filesystems are currupted. [20:24] how can I do that? [20:24] how can I enter recovery mode? [20:24] its an entry on the grub menu at boot time [20:24] Lanser: What you pasted above does not indicate any problem with your distribution. the filesystem on your USB device is hosed. [20:25] adamk: my distro has a few problems now too, it cannot detect USBs all by itself, and it still keeps showing "??" and "usb" even though /media is empty [20:26] also nautilus says "cannot handle computer location" [20:26] I don't know what you mean by "cannot detect USBs" but all those "FAT-fs (sdb1): Directory bread(block 505) failed" errors show that your filesystem on that device is broken. [20:26] /media/ shows MOUNTED devices/filesystems.. if none are mounted.. then it would be empty. [20:27] if it cant mount it.. then it wont show up in /media/ [20:27] how can I enter recovery mode? [20:27] its an entry on the grub menu at boot time ...... [20:28] how can I get the grub menu? [20:28] or make a live-usb/cd its alwyas a good idea to have one handy [20:28] boot up.. you should see the grub menu. [20:28] I use compaq. [20:28] or hold SHIFT if its hidden by default [20:29] !recovery [20:29] To rescue a broken system, boot the alternate install CD and select "Rescue a broken system" [20:29] old factoid. ;) [20:29] Or is it called 'rescue mode' these days? they keep changeing the names. [20:29] Dr_willis: Nope, "recovery mode" still [20:30] dr_willis, I cannot install Ubuntu again right now, how can I use my current one to make one? [20:31] Oiiee [20:31] you can make a live-usb/cd from your Ubuntu OS of course.. if you have the iso downloaded... [20:31] like, how can I use my current distro to make up a install cd? [20:31] I don't have any iso downloaded... [20:31] for fscking, you might want to use a smaller live disrto like the system rescue live cd. [20:31] Lanser, then you download the iso... [20:31] is there any difference in performance if i partition the hdd to 5 partitions or just make it 1 partition ? [20:31] kelly_, cant say ive ever noticed any differance. [20:32] thank u Dr_willis [20:32] ages ago people woule argud about how one 'end' of the HD is faster then the other.. but these days - most people dont care. ;) [20:32] kelly_, A single HD has 4 primaries total or 3 and a extended for logicals. [20:32] / swap and /home is about all i use. [20:33] kelly_: wilee-nilee with GPT you can have as many primary as you want... just sayin. [20:33] If I download a .iso of a distro, how can I install it without burning it to a usb or a cd? [20:33] Lanser, easier to put it on cd/usb [20:33] kelly_, Make sure you understand the limitations and types of partitions allowed otherwise you may make your partitions dynamic. [20:34] Oii tudo bem? [20:34] is there a way to not use adobe flash in ubuntu 12.04 [20:34] dr_willis; I can't do that. [20:34] Lanser, since i imagine setting up grub2 to boot an ISO file - is going to be beyond your skill level [20:34] so how can I do it without usb/cd? [20:34] !pxe [20:34] zykotic10, Yes I know, however hardly anyone here knows what a msdos setup HD is. [20:34] oh [20:34] thank you guys so much for the information , i appreciate it [20:34] i installed with pxe [20:34] wilee-nilee: probably true ;) [20:35] zykotic10, I know the regulars do. ;) [20:35] lauratika, There is the restricted-extras or the plugin [20:36] lauratika, Sorry my bad there is gnash and another. [20:36] what you rekon is better? [20:36] lauratika, NOt sure I just use adobe. [20:36] given how gnash 'barely' works... ;) [20:36] evening guys, having a bit of trouble. I'm trying to install lessc on node package manager on this ubuntu machine. Got as far as installing it, when I type 'lessc' into terminal it comes back with suggested usage, when I make it compile the less file in the terminal window, it outputs fine, however, if I try and output the result to a file, both sudo and normal user get permission denied. set the folder executable, changed ownership to root, what else [20:37] wilee-nilee [20:37] lauratika, yes [20:37] wilee-nile: thanx, Dr_willis: gnash not good? [20:38] lauratika, if 'barely works' is good enough for you. [20:38] lauratika: Just "sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer" and you'll get Adobe Flash [20:38] lauratika, The open source flash are well, problematic in general, depends on your tolerance I suppose. [20:38] Dr_willis: no is not... [20:38] lauratika: That works the best... === zz_Enviious is now known as Enviious [20:38] theadmin: i dont want to, but thanx. [20:39] lauratika: Well... That's really the only bearable implementation of Flash. That does work. [20:39] theadmin. i see [20:41] autoconf issue >> http://pastebay.com/1257240 , any idea what's wrong ? [20:41] of course it depends on what you need flash for. ;) there may be alternatives for special cases [20:41] *sigh* I installed some Virtualbox guest utilities and now the VM won't boot.

[21:04] Computer occasionally boots to grub, and after selecting ubuntu in grub it goes to a black screen. Mostly, it skips grub and just goes to the black screen. I just tried closing the computer lid, then opening it again, and now the black screen changed to the normal logins creen [21:04] I cloned the repo, added my files into, staged them, added a commit message and then pushed then client [21:04] f00bar80: what ubuntu version are you using? [21:05] nothing happened? Jagst3r15 [21:05] client: doesnt matter what ever happens, then what should i backup in terms of keys?

[21:51] there is no docs [21:51] BenjaminRH: do you really need a uptodate nvidia? [21:52] I don't have the drivers at all currently [21:52] BenjaminRH: what is wrong with the nvidia drivers that ship with ubuntu? [21:52] !nvidia | BenjaminRH [21:52] BenjaminRH: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto [21:52] ph4sm4, 1) what server? 2) tried copying config.lua.dist to config.lua and trying/modifying/etc that? [21:52] hmm [21:52] the proprietary ones are better, surely? [21:52] BenjaminRH: they are the proprtiary ones [21:53] BenjaminRH: I'm shocked you don't know this - but you know to try to look for a PPA [21:53] I don't see any proprietary ones in the software place [21:53] Does anyone knows how to disable touchpad when writing? Can't remember it :\ [21:53] BenjaminRH, the nvidia- are the proprietary ones... Assuming you have them installed and not nouveau, you should be using them. [21:54] cipherboy: that's the thing -- I can't find them. It's a fresh install of ubuntu 13.04, but they're not listed [21:54] jacta, should be in gnome-settings (if you are using gnome/unity), I forget exactly where, but either under keyboard, mouse, or touchpad. [21:54] BenjaminRH, `dpkg --list | grep nvdia` (without backticks) should list them. [21:55] *nvidia [21:55] cipherboy: I'll try that now, but shouldn't they be listed in the software and updates gui under additional drivers? [21:55] optimus video card ? running in intel mode [21:55] yep [21:55] ahhh there we go [21:55] optimus card [21:56] cipherboy: yeah, dpkg didn't turn anything up [21:56] ikonia: oh? [21:56] ikonia, What is the story with those? [21:56] BenjaminRH: is this an optimus card ? [21:56] yes [21:56] ikonia: what does that mean for what I need to do to get that working? [21:56] cipherboy: they suck and don't work [21:56] lol [21:56] haha [21:56] BenjaminRH: there is software called "bumblebee" to allow you to switch, however I find it a weak solution for a weak implementation of a solution [21:57] I think the latest nvidia drivers support it don't they? [21:57] eh, yes if by "optimus card" you mean a geoforce nvidia card with optimus support [21:57] euxneks: not really no [21:57] i thought optimus was just the thing that switched it automatically between the integrated and the dedicated card? [21:57] euxneks: it's not the support, it's the switching that fails [21:57] hence why he can't see an nvidia card now [21:57] ah [21:57] gurgle [21:57] Nvidia has promised to have better support.. ;) but we have seen nvidia and ati make such promises in the past also. [21:57] what package handles font rendering in ubuntu? [21:58] ikonia: so should I go download the drivers from geoforce.com, or try bumblebee? [21:58] BenjaminRH: I don't mean to be negative about this but my view is pick either intel or nvidia mode - set it if possilbe, then use that as a "static" card [21:58] BenjaminRH: do not download anything from nvidia.com (don't know why you are looking at geoforce.com) [21:58] BenjaminRH: stop that windows thinking, that you need to download stuff from anywhere on the internet [21:59] ikonia: because geoforce.com has nvidia geoforce linux drivers ;) [21:59] BenjaminRH: did you acutally read that link the bot gave you? [21:59] how do you dd a directory to make an exactly copy of it [21:59] k1l: I've just switched to ubuntu after several years with crunchbang and arch, but this is my first time with a separate graphics card [21:59] Jagst3r15, not entirely sure, try either libt1-5, linxfont1, or libxft2 perhaps? sorry, not familiar.

[22:00] k1l: I just checked nodejs from the official repos -- it's several versions behind [22:00] I keep messing with packages though maybe I shouldn't do that ;p [22:01] i missed a job interview by phone yesterday. i called today and they sort of agreed that there were some technical problems and thats why we couldnt make it. i asked them to rearrange it. today i didnt get an email. where they lying? [22:01] Jagst3r15, looked into graphics driver perhaps? [22:01] leo_31: do you have an ubuntu quetion/issue ? [22:01] BenjaminRH: again: do you _need_ the latest? i really mean _need_ and not "but i want it" [22:01] yeah I am investigating now sir [22:01] I was adding bumblebee [22:01] and something got borked [22:01] k1l: for nodejs, yes. For the drivers, no I don't :) [22:02] Jagst3r15, that is likely your issue, work backwards from there. [22:02] k thanks [22:02] and yes I realize I am creating these issues xD [22:03] Speaking of drivers questions, I might as well bring one up... Running on an old dell inspiron 8600 (don't ask why...) has GeForce4 Ti 4200 Go AGP 8x a1 graphics card, never gotten it to work on anything higher than 10.04 due to it requiring the nvidia-96 package.

Oh, and correction: spare computer is that, not other ones. [22:04] subcool: you dd to a block device, not a mount [22:04] cipherboy: nvidia drops the support for old cards. solution is to use the free driver [22:04] ikonia, iirc, yes to both 10.04 desktop and nvidia-96. [22:05] cipherboy: you're going to have pain then [22:05] Figured as much, tried it briefly from official nvidia, but that failed badly... [22:06] hmm [22:06] ikonia, i've done it before.. - but how do i do it? [22:06] subcool: done what before ? [22:06] use dd to clone my home. [22:06] its going to its own drive, so- i can use sdc6 [22:06] subcool: your output needs to be a file [22:07] subcool: sorry what ? [22:07] subcool: what are you trying to do ? [22:07] clone my home directory [22:07] im moving it [22:07] subcool: why are you using DD [22:07] its getting its own partitions [22:07] that's a terrible solution [22:07] mae sure i get everything [22:07] it's a very bad idea [22:07] it's a block copy [22:07] you want a file system copy [22:08] ikonia, ok... what do you suggest [22:08] subcool: just tar it up [22:08] subcool: or copy it somewhere safe [22:08] dd is a bad idea for what you want [22:08] im not creating a backup [22:08] subcool: what are you doing then ? [22:09] subcool, eg: cp -prv /home/subcool /new/home [22:09] whatever works.. [22:09] i just want EVERYTHING moved [22:09] subcool, cp copies versus moves of course, -p to preserve permissions, -r to recursively copy, and -v to be verbose (list everything it is copying) [22:10] i was just about to ask that [22:10] thans [22:10] As long as you do it on the folder level and not do something like /home/subcool/* (where * would target only visible directories), you will be fine.

[22:14] cipherboy: it depends on your card and it's support [22:14] ikonia: is the Unity on 12.04.2 the same version as it is in 13.04? LTS description says "receives constant updates" [22:15] ikonia, "Be aware that this list may be outdated and incomplete. Nouveau aims to support all NVIDIA cards, but no effort is made to document which cards (and BIOSes) actually work, as this is deemed infeasible. Just try it and submit bug reports if it doesn't work. Feel free to edit the page when your card is not listed.

[23:09] sry, realised I'm being confusing. I meant the "dash" launcher in Unity, not the shell! [23:09] yes, I logged out and logged back in again [23:09] kil: results for "ls -al /etc/apt/sources.list.d" are here: http://pastebin.com/cTMa710y [23:09] unclouded: Not the dash launcher. Then you need to create a shell script and call that to setup the "environment" [23:10] jtreminio: try using --no-install-recommends and see if that gives you want you want [23:10] And run the shell script instead of launching the application.

Most logs are in /var/log/ [23:41] yeah, i am not very careful, I typically run whatever code I can find via google without knowing what it does [23:41] poz, You might get a backup and cloning setup for such occasions. ;) [23:41] Does Linux support bluetooth 4.0? [23:41] well pć restrarts by itself with a message that says saned network [23:41] haha [23:41] want to know what is all about [23:41] netlar: yes [23:42] goddard: I cannot ever connect anything [23:42] well I have a desktop and a laptop, my laptop I just mess around with. I dont do it on my desktop unless i know what I am doing [23:42] goddard: Is there a trick to get it working? [23:42] netlar: it would depend on the system and driver support [23:43] goddard: I am on 13.04 [23:43] lauratika: Do you have a scanner plugged in? [23:43] netlar: i mean your actual hardware [23:43] goddard: the bluetooth chipset? [23:43] yes [23:44] goddard: How can I find that out again? [23:44] my gf wants me to go help with dinner so I have to go now. thanks for the help everyone has given me so far! [23:44] dont ever help the gf with dinner! [23:45] Hi everyone - is there an opensource video editting tool for Ubuntu available? [23:46] Kdenlive Martijn-NL [23:46] sorry got dicontected... pc keeps restarting for no aparent reason, message sasy network sane [23:46] Martijn-NL: yes [23:47] lauratika: Do you have a scanner on the network or connected? [23:47] Martijn-NL: a few [23:47] Martijn-NL: look in the software center [23:47] bossman759: Can you recommendate Kdenlive? [23:47] kboodu: not at all, not that i know of [23:47] whats a scanner? [23:48] to listen to rf? [23:48] lauratika: But it says "network sane" in the message [23:48] I've used it only once and I did the job. I'm not an expert so it may not be After Affects quality but I worked for me. [23:48] goddard: No, to digitize sheets of paper [23:48] goddard: I'm thinking a document/photo scanner. [23:48] yes, scanner server saned network [23:48] oh i thought that was what a 10MP camera was for [23:48] kboodu: so sorry i have a scanner. actually but is not on [23:49] how can I downgrade to kernel 3.5 ? [23:49] lauratika: Hmm. I wonder if you have a driver looking for it? [23:49] thats why it restarts suddenly out of nothing? [23:49] lauratika: No idea. Just guessing. [23:49] goddard: Difference is, scanners have a bed where you can place the document face-down. Much better than taking photos of documents. [23:50] sorry, I'll check it out [23:50] How do I temporarily change my sound system? [23:50] you mean scanner is in conflict with something? [23:50] bye bye room, thanks kboodu [23:50] is there any way to check for log errors? [23:50] lauratika: Not sure. I'm just guessing. SANE is normally associated with scanners. [23:51] lauratika: you can try something like sudo grep -ir sane /var/log/* | less [23:51] lauratika: But that could generate a lot of messages. But it might give you somewhere to start. [23:51] kboodu: thanx [23:52] hi there, I am using ubuntu 13.04 on my acer aspire v5-471pg . It was preloaded with windows 8. I manage to install ubuntu without hassle. but ubuntu uefi/grub could not detect my windows 8. how do I add it to the menu? thanks [23:52] lauratika: You can also check to see if 'ps aux | grep -i sane' shows anything [23:52] lauratika: Specifically looking for a daemon that might have sane in the name. [23:52] the odd issue is not even on [23:53] lauratika: This might be a red herring...but if you reboot right when the message is firing off... [23:53] lauratika: also, there might be something "interesting" in /var/log/syslog right before each reboot. [23:53] red herring? [23:53] lauratika: Again, that's another guess. [23:54] lauratika: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_herring [23:54] sorry i dont know what is a reh herring? [23:54] lauratika: A fallacy that detracts from the actual issue. :) [23:55] kboodu: hahaha [23:55] but can find even a pattern when this happens, sometimes is out of nowhere, sometimes im surfing the net, all time scanner is off [23:56] can you effecticley run ubuntu on nvidia? [23:56] hi there, I just installed ubuntu 13.04 on my acer aspire v5-471pg. The problem is, the uefi/boot (ubuntu) cannot detect windows 8. how do i add it to the list? thanks [23:56] lauratika: If a message appears a few seconds (a few lines) before each reboot, it's something to look at closer. [23:57] Does anyone here have a Lenovo E531? I've got one on the way and would like to know about any potential compatibility issues [23:57] (or any others in the E___ series) [23:57] yes, scanner serves network:saned [23:58] lauratika: Is saned running right now? [23:58] you mean the scanner?, nope === Enviious is now known as zz_Enviious [23:59] Not is the scanner off. Is the application saned running? [23:59] lktika kernel: [12931.515013] [UFW BLOCK] IN=tun0 OUT= MAC= SRC=106.154.128.177 DST=172.37.0.101 LEN=79 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=44 ID=8448 PROTO=UDP SPT=3387 DPT=33100 LEN=59 [23:59] this is from the syslog [23:59] lauratika: ufw is the Ubuntu Firewall
