| euxneks | to answer my own questions: yes, ubuntu uses iptables still, it's probably easier to just use the CLI to do iptables | 00:01 |
| reisio | everything uses iptables :) | 00:02 |
| DYSW | thats a bold statement reisio | 00:02 |
| s1lence | Does anybody have any ideas as to what the mysterious announcement on ubuntu.com means? | 00:03 |
| euxneks | I bet it's something to do with mobile and desktop interoperability | 00:03 |
| clue_h | maybe it's to do with ubuntu touch | 00:03 |

| reisio | depends on exactly what you want | 00:09 |
| Mudack | reisio: but unfortunately I have another problem... | 00:09 |
| reisio | there are a number of ways you could accomplish it | 00:09 |
| lauratika | reisio: to me? | 00:09 |
| reisio | lauratika: yes | 00:09 |
| Mudack | I'll brb | 00:10 |
| lauratika | well, i want to be able to each user has its own wallppaper on the login page, the link you post is about a third application is there a way via terminal perhaps or a GUI? | 00:10 |
| reisio | lauratika: hrmm, you want the wallpaper to be unique to a user? Or to actually change the moment you click a name? | 00:11 |
| reisio | the former is quite simple | 00:11 |
| Phoenix1969 | have I finally reached the ubuntu help channel? | 00:11 |

| Mudack | I;m back | 00:12 |
| semitones | This is only the limbo level of help | 00:12 |
| MoTec | if your question is deemed actually worth of help you will be fowarded to a secondary channel which will verify your ability to actually receive help. | 00:12 |
| reisio | lauratika: well the login screen handles more than one user | 00:12 |
| reisio | lauratika: how do you want to differentiate? | 00:12 |
| lauratika | MoTec: LOLMA | 00:12 |
| Phoenix1969 | I have the blue windows startscreen where you choose the OS, but the keyboard seems unresponsive & it just counts down from 10 then boots to win8 | 00:12 |
| lauratika | with wallpaper | 00:12 |
| semitones | there are 7 levels below this one | 00:12 |
| MoTec | semitones: indeed.. progress has been made! | 00:13 |
| Mudack | reisio: with all the problems i'm having with Musix should I just switch to Ubuntu? | 00:13 |
| reisio | lauratika: so you go to the login screen, choose a user & login, then once logged in you see a user-specific wallpaper? That's what you want? | 00:13 |
| lauratika | Phoenix1969: you install a dual ubuntu/windows? | 00:13 |
| Phoenix1969 | laura, yes | 00:13 |
| Phoenix1969 | on same drive | 00:13 |
| Mudack | Phoenix1969: What are your Specs? | 00:13 |
| lauratika | no, just on the login screen, each account has their own walpapper | 00:13 |
| reisio | Mudack: it's hard to say whether that'd make any difference | 00:14 |

| Phoenix1969 | aaah, its the amd 8core | 00:15 |
| subcool | i have a hdd on usb, if i were to use esata plug, would it change the /dev/sd*? | 00:15 |
| lauratika | Phoenix1969: and is not booting on ubuntu? just windows | 00:15 |
| lauratika | reisio: no, just on the login screen, each account has their own walpapper | 00:15 |
| reisio | subcool: it very well may | 00:15 |
| reisio | subcool: you could give it a LABEL or utilize a UUID, though | 00:16 |
| reisio | subcool: or setup a udev rule to always keep it at /dev/specificName | 00:16 |
| Phoenix1969 | right, it has the option at start, but not in bios, in some weird blue windows screen, but keyboard no go | 00:16 |
| Phoenix1969 | how to choose ubuntu? | 00:16 |
| reisio | lauratika: that you see when you click on the name? | 00:16 |
| lauratika | reisio: i see the same wallpapper i add to login admin account | 00:17 |
| Mudack | Reisio: My terminal says that it can't fetch any of the packages i'm requesting and the official websites won't give me a easily running file, and I can't find a system Software Center | 00:17 |
| lauratika | Phoenix1969: what you mean the option at start but not in bios? | 00:17 |
| reisio | lauratika: do you need to know how to change the wallpaper at all? Or something more complicated? | 00:17 |
| lauratika | Phoenix1969: do you have the opotion or not to boot into ubuntu? | 00:17 |
| reisio | Mudack: tell the channel about the error | 00:17 |
| Mudack | Phoenix1969: Do you mean the boot menu? | 00:18 |
| Phoenix1969 | it does have the option there indeed, i just am unable to physically choose it | 00:18 |
| lauratika | resisio: change wallpaper at login for each account, not the wallpaper. but at login. are you following me? | 00:18 |
| Mudack | Reisio: which channel? | 00:18 |
| reisio | this one | 00:18 |
| reisio | lauratika: nope | 00:18 |
| subcool | reisio, well, i base this question off the fact that i have two hdd's on usb in an raid array (raid 0 | 00:19 |
| lauratika | Phoenix1969: and keyboard works on wind 8? | 00:19 |
| Phoenix1969 | yes | 00:19 |
| lauratika | reisio:is there a way to have a different wallpaper on each login account in ubuntu | 00:19 |
| reisio | subcool: what for | 00:19 |
| OerHeks | lauratika, at login, there is not a way to determin what account is on, you are at the point there is not a account active, so how do you want ubuntu to choose? | 00:19 |
| reisio | lauratika: yes | 00:19 |
| Mudack | reisio: How do I do that? *pounds fist to chest* I want to serve my community! | 00:19 |
| subcool | reisio, raid 0 -- now id like to switch one of them to a esata cable | 00:19 |
| reisio | Mudack: I'm just saying don't put my nick before the message :p more people will be likely to read it | 00:20 |
| Mudack | Okay | 00:20 |
| reisio | subcool: yeah that could be complicated :) | 00:20 |
| reisio | subcool: you probably don't need or want that raid, though, IMO | 00:20 |
| subcool | yeah, i need them in a raid 0 right now. | 00:20 |
| subcool | they create a larger drive i need. | 00:20 |

| lauratika | OerHeks: what you talking about?, simple lighdm can have different wallppapers on the login page, and if you change up and down on different accounts login fields wallpaper can change, how i do that? | 00:20 |
| Mudack | Hey guys, my system software centre seems to be non-existent, my terminal won't fetch packages, and official program websites give too many options, what do I do? | 00:21 |
| === meinsanto is now known as microcode | ||
| reisio | subcool: lvm is what you'd want for "a larger drive" | 00:22 |
| reisio | or unionfs or something like that | 00:22 |
| reisio | raid is about high availability | 00:22 |
| reisio | and for most people: lost files :p | 00:22 |
| subcool | reisio, i dont like lvm very much right now. | 00:22 |
| Phoenix1969 | it should work with the up & down arrow keys, and enter to execute...no? | 00:22 |
| OerHeks | lauratika, sure, lightdm can have different wallpapers, choose one. but not connected to an account, because an account is not active, so how do you expect ubuntu to know what account is active? | 00:22 |
| lauratika | Phoenix1969: is this a usb keyboard? | 00:22 |
| * OerHeks facepalms | 00:22 | |

| subcool | lol | 00:22 |

| subcool | its working fine now- just thought maybe i could tweak it.. | 00:26 |
| quli_ | the taskbar in the top and the right disappear all the time, how do I solve this without restarting??? | 00:26 |
| subcool | changing one of them to esata. | 00:26 |
| reisio | subcool: it is if you know how your raid hardware/software is setup/configured | 00:27 |
| lauratika | : what you mean disappear | 00:27 |
| Jordan_U | subcool: Does this array contain your root filesystem? | 00:27 |
| Phoenix1969 | worked like a charm instantly, thank you laura | 00:27 |
| subcool | its bad enough you have to have esata plugged in from the boot. | 00:27 |
| subcool | jordan, no | 00:27 |
| subcool | im using it has a backup while i test something | 00:27 |
| subcool | its very temporary | 00:27 |
| lauratika | Phoenix1969: no prob, it's odd because i assume is a new pc right? | 00:27 |
| quli_ | lauratika: you know the bar in the top that says ubuntu desktop | 00:27 |
| quli_ | it just disappears | 00:27 |
| Jordan_U | subcool: Then I don't expect you'll have any problems switching to esata. | 00:27 |
| quli_ | well actually not only that | 00:27 |
| lauratika | quili: what ubuntu version you are using? | 00:28 |

| quli_ | the part that says file, etc | 00:28 |
| semitones | What command in bash tells you file size? | 00:28 |
| zykotick9 | quli_: restart unity, or better yet, restart light dm. from a virtual console "sudo service lightdm restart" then log in again [i have no idea how to restart unity]. | 00:28 |
| Jordan_U | semitones: du -h /path/to/file | 00:28 |
| zykotick9 | semitones: "ls -l" or "ls -sh" | 00:29 |

| quli_ | zykotick9: will it affect them? | 00:29 |
| Jordan_U | semitones: You're welcome. | 00:29 |
| semitones | zykotick9: I tried ls -l but didn't see sizes. I'll try -sh too | 00:29 |
| zykotick9 | quli_: ya - you need to restart unity - i don't know how, good luck! | 00:29 |
| lauratika | quil: you also can try unity --reset | 00:29 |
| quli_ | lauratika: can I do that with all the programs opened? | 00:30 |
| Mudack | reisio: *facepalm* I found the Xarchive application. I'm glad I did one last sweep!!! | 00:30 |
| lauratika | quil: this will restart unity. | 00:30 |
| reisio | Mudack: and what do you plan on doing with that? :p | 00:30 |
| reisio | Mudack: installing applications from tarballs on distros like Ubuntu is usually doing it wrong | 00:30 |

| Kitt3n | devmedoo, it's always a good idea to burn stuff to DVDs slowly too, if you're using a program that you can choose the burning speed with. | 00:53 |

| Kitt3n | devmedoo, the ISO is correct, the DVD is faulty | 00:58 |
| devmedoo | md5=8D72E2DB7E72E13813731EAB37A14D26 in iso , dvd is multi file ( extracted | 00:58 |
| devmedoo | why? | 00:58 |
| Kitt3n | devmedoo, what program did you use to burn the DVD? | 00:58 |
| devmedoo | ashmpoo studio | 00:58 |
| devmedoo | ashampoo | 00:59 |
| Kitt3n | devmedoo, the easiest solution would be to use a USB stick instead of DVDs, but try the burner included in Windows to burn the iso to a new DVD | 01:00 |
| devmedoo | kitt3n? | 01:02 |
| devmedoo | here? | 01:02 |
| apleersdf | I have an sd card I'm trying to reformat, it wont allow me to delete any files on it, saying its read only, I will not allow me to unmount disk, therefore unable to format it or do anything else | 01:02 |
| apleersdf | its pretty much locked up | 01:02 |
| apleersdf | I even logged in as root, and still can not get it to unmount or anything | 01:02 |
| Kitt3n | devmedoo, yes, yes, I am here | 01:02 |
| apleersdf | any ideas on what to do? | 01:02 |
| dr_willis | apleersdf: use dd to zero it out then repartion it | 01:03 |
| apleersdf | whats the command? | 01:03 |
| dr_willis | ive seed sd cards fail and go read only | 01:03 |
| devmedoo | kitt3n | 01:04 |
| devmedoo | here? | 01:04 |
| Kitt3n | apleersdf, there might be a locking mechanism on the SD card itself too | 01:04 |
| Kitt3n | devmedoo, YES, I am here! What is it? | 01:04 |
| dr_willis | or use fdisk or gparted to repartion it | 01:04 |
| apleersdf | Kitt3n: ? like what? | 01:04 |
| apleersdf | I've used this card before, but now I'm just trying to reformat it | 01:04 |
| Kitt3n | apleersdf, a little plastic piece that you can move up and down or something. | 01:05 |
| apleersdf | I already checked that Kitt3n, it was the first thing I checked, and checked it a few time after that making sure that isn't the problem | 01:05 |
| dr_willis | used it befor does not prove its not got hw issues now.. could be a switch on it also | 01:05 |
| dr_willis | seen those go bad | 01:05 |
| dr_willis | plug it in.. watch dmesg output to tell what sd# the device is.. then try formating it via the cli | 01:07 |
| devmedoo | kitt3n? | 01:07 |
| devmedoo | here? | 01:07 |
| Kitt3n | devmedoo, what is it? -_- | 01:07 |
| apleersdf | The card is not seen in gparted | 01:07 |
| devmedoo | i lost connection since i said ashampoo burning studio | 01:08 |
| apleersdf | it is seened in disk ulity, but now when I plug in the card, it isn't bringing up the folder like normal | 01:08 |
| Kitt3n | devmedoo, right, well, the easiest solution is to use a USB stick instead of DVDs, but you could try burn a new DVD with Windows' built-in image burner | 01:08 |
| dr_willis | if the filesystem is currupted that would make sense | 01:08 |
| dr_willis | if gparted does not see the devix | 01:08 |
| dr_willis | device.. thats very weird | 01:09 |
| apleersdf | in disk ulity, its not mounting when plugged in the system anymore (which is odd) cause it would, when I try to mount it in disk ulity, it sais Deamon is inhibited | 01:09 |
| apleersdf | it wont let me do anything, gparted doesn't see it | 01:09 |
| devmedoo | how do you know that the dvd is corrupt? | 01:09 |
| dr_willis | fallback to the cli to see.what the system is seeing.. not the gui tools | 01:09 |
| Kitt3n | devmedoo, personal experience, DVDs can easily break ... | 01:10 |
| Kitt3n | devmedoo, virtually, that is. | 01:10 |
| devmedoo | mmm , ok , is there thing like virtual dvd or something? | 01:10 |
| dr_willis | apleersdf: if the fs is currupted.. it will refuse to mount it | 01:10 |
| devmedoo | because my usb had win 8 recovery :) :) | 01:11 |
| dr_willis | apleersdf: try mounting it by hand. look for error mesages when mounting | 01:11 |

| arun | i guess ntfs | 01:21 |
| arun | how to check that | 01:21 |
| dr_willis | arun look and verify that.... dont guess.. then if it IS ntfs... check the ntfs-3g docs on making a fstab entry for the device with the right options.. or just try installing and running the ntfs-config tool ;) | 01:22 |

| netlar | Pandee: Were you the one helping me yesterday? | 01:34 |
| dr_willis | devmedoo: i have no idea what you mean by that... | 01:34 |
| dr_willis | you calcullate the sum on file 1.. look at it.. then compare it to the sum listed in the file.. | 01:34 |
| Pandee | netlar: no i don't believe so | 01:34 |
| devmedoo | i mean that the program give my one md5 for the file , so each file in dvd have md5 | 01:35 |
| dr_willis | I dont use that app.. so no idea of its features. | 01:35 |
| dr_willis | you want to sum the whatever.iso file.. dont mount it. | 01:35 |
| bazhang | devmedoo, you dont extract the iso. | 01:35 |
| netlar | Should of remembered his handle | 01:36 |
| bazhang | devmedoo, you burn the iso to a usb stick or dvd, not extract | 01:36 |
| dr_willis | windows apps treating .iso files as an archive... always lovely.. when its totally wrong. | 01:36 |
| Random833 | i tihnk with vista and later you can right click to burn properly | 01:37 |
| dr_willis | i just have some windows app that puts 'md5sum' on the context meni i recall. | 01:37 |
| dr_willis | i always ise infrarecorder to burn the isos but not used that in ages. | 01:38 |
| devmedoo_ | i use checksum | 01:38 |
| devmedoo_ | the iso is corrrect md5 | 01:38 |
| dr_willis | many of the isu burning apps can also calculate the md5sum | 01:38 |
| devmedoo_ | the dvd and iso is same bytes | 01:38 |
| dr_willis | same bytes does NOT mean its the same sum. | 01:38 |
| bazhang | devmedoo_, thats not the problem. the problem is you extracted the files from the iso | 01:38 |
| devmedoo_ | bazhang : i didn't , i made dvd by iso with ashampoo burning studio | 01:39 |
| bazhang | devmedoo_, what software did you use to burn to dvd | 01:39 |
| dr_willis | reburn using some nice simple tool like infrarecorder, or imgburn , or some other known al. | 01:39 |
| dr_willis | app. | 01:39 |
| dr_willis | !burn | 01:40 |
| devmedoo_ | infrarecorder mmmmm , i'll try | 01:40 |

| bazhang | devmedoo_, you md5 the iso BEFORE you burn to dvd | 01:40 |
| devmedoo_ | the md5 = 8D72E2DB7E72E13813731EAB37A14D26 | 01:40 |
| bazhang | devmedoo_, not the extracted files , but the iso | 01:40 |
| vader_ | /disconnect | 01:41 |
| devmedoo_ | i didn't understand you | 01:42 |
| dr_willis | i think infrarecorder has a 'md5sum' item when you select an iso.. you can caompare to the one given in the file at the url mentioned above | 01:43 |
| devmedoo_ | dr_willis i already checked and it's correct!!! | 01:44 |

| dr_willis | taek: as a dirty 'trick' you could try restarting the networking, or using 'ifup eth0' in /etc/rc.local | 01:58 |
| dr_willis | its possible networking is trying to come up and failing for some reason, then the user login some how retriggers it to try again | 01:59 |

| taek | well I just added the ifup eth0 | 02:00 |

| dr_willis_ | taek: your problem is so miss , get a support from one other than me.... | 02:00 |

| dr_willis | DWSR: im thinking that would be a neat trick. :) and a possible security nightmare... since sshfs uses the fuse system.. the fusermount command may have options to allow that. | 02:02 |
| taek | hmm should I logout of unity? | 02:02 |
| jrib | taek: you should place your system in its "broken" state. Whatever that means (probably reboot). And then log in through a virtual console. | 02:03 |
| jrib | dr_willis: :x | 02:03 |
| taek | hmm okay | 02:03 |
| taek | i'll be back then | 02:03 |
| jrib | taek: if your system remains "broken" after log in at virtual console, check if eth0 is up | 02:04 |
| taek | will do | 02:04 |
| dr_willis | if its just opencloud failing to startup.. having an encvrypted home could be a potential issue.. | 02:04 |
| taek | brb | 02:04 |
| jrib | taek: I'm using "broken" to mean "can't connect to opencloud" | 02:04 |
| dr_willis_ | to hell | 02:04 |
| dr_willis | wow.. trolls using the freenode web chat to spam us.. how lovely. | 02:04 |
| azazel91 | is there a irc that alerts member logins | 02:04 |
| jrib | dr_willis_: right, if I had to bet I would bet on your initial guess about encrypted homes | 02:04 |
| dr_willis_ | hhhhh , i like joking hhhh | 02:05 |
| mr_willis | ya willis my too | 02:05 |
| dr_willis | guess you could set up opencloud to share some unencrypted filesystem as a test also. ;) that way you can verifyu it is working. | 02:06 |
| cuddylier | Anyone know how to see the redirects I have on the program 'redir'? | 02:07 |

| taek | using ptty1 right now | 02:09 |
| mr_willis | ok good | 02:09 |
| dr_willis | its possible openmcloud is trying to start befor networking is started. or its waiting for networking to start.. | 02:09 |
| taek | Owncloud* | 02:09 |
| taek | Owncloud runs in apache2. | 02:10 |

| savagejen | When I run dmesg, it's filled with errors about unknown keycode e03e. They seem to be happening multiple times per second. Not sure what the best course of action is. One blog post I read said I should map the keycode to null. | 02:13 |
| taek | Yeah, Ubuntu 10.0.4.4 LTS has been phased out. | 02:14 |
| dr_willis | savagejen: or edit /etc/sysconf.cfg (i think) to not be as verbose in its logging. :) | 02:14 |
| taek | Or figure out what the key is that is causing it, and remap it | 02:14 |
| savagejen | dr_willis, I'm less concerned about the logging and more concerned about the cause :) | 02:14 |
| dr_willis | ive had dmesg get flooded by broken hardware befor. (a web cam in my case) | 02:15 |
| dr_willis | not seen a keyvode flood.. | 02:15 |
| savagejen | I don't think it's a key, but I am running on a touch screen laptop, and I have to wonder if it's related to this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/1099289 | 02:15 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu bug 1099289 in unity (Ubuntu) "Touch screen stops respoding to clicking after running for a while" [Medium,Confirmed] | 02:15 |
| dr_willis | I bet its that pesky 'anykey' that no one can ever find! | 02:15 |
| taek | Well, it seems to me that either the key got mapped to Null, the keyboard selected setting is incorrect, or the keyboard is just broken. | 02:16 |
| savagejen | ubottu, oh, is the problem confirmed to be my touch screen already? | 02:16 |
| savagejen | Keyboard appears to fully function. This is a brand new Lenovo Yoga. | 02:16 |
| taek | Any other input device besides screen and keyboard? | 02:17 |
| * dr_willis read that as a 'Yoda' and envisioned a Funny green laptop | 02:17 | |
| savagejen | I am using a usb wifi nic | 02:17 |
| Hacked2 | Here Is The Checkout Baby!! | 02:17 |
| savagejen | I disabled the onboard nic in the bios | 02:17 |
| savagejen | and there's a touch pad mouse | 02:17 |
| taek | Is the trouch screen doing anything it shouldn't? | 02:17 |
| savagejen | taek there's the known bug 1099289 | 02:18 |
| ubottu | bug 1099289 in unity (Ubuntu) "Touch screen stops respoding to clicking after running for a while" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1099289 | 02:18 |
| dr_willis | are you even using the touchscreen? | 02:18 |
| savagejen | I was! | 02:18 |
| cuddylier | Anyone know how to list the redirects I have made using the program 'redir'? | 02:18 |
| savagejen | but it's flaky | 02:18 |
| dr_willis | ;) you touched it in a bad way and it got mad. | 02:18 |
| taek | I wasn't asking about the bug, I was asking about your usage of the touch screen. | 02:18 |
| savagejen | so if I transition the laptop into a tablet to read kindle books, I noticed sometimes the touch screen doesn't respond when I want to turn the page | 02:18 |
| dr_willis | cuddylier: what do you mean by 'redirects' ? | 02:19 |
| savagejen | so it's annoying that Ii have to turn it over to press the mouse instead | 02:19 |
| taek | Then maybe you have prior said mentionted bug. | 02:19 |
| savagejen | yes, I have experienced that bug | 02:19 |
| cuddylier | dr_willis It's a program which means you can redirect traffic from an IP to another IP on another server box | 02:19 |
| savagejen | but I am unsure it's related to the message in dmesg | 02:19 |
| cuddylier | apt-get install redir | 02:19 |
| boethiah | hello there. is there a developers channle? | 02:20 |
| cuddylier | But I can't find much documentation on it, apart from obviously typing 'redir' in SSH which doesn't help much | 02:20 |
| dr_willis | cuddylier: sounds like a ssh tunnle. ;) but i rarely need such things... at leat not lately | 02:20 |
| cuddylier | Yeah, it's a tunneling thing | 02:20 |
| taek | Does the touch screen work properly in "normal laptop" setup vrs "tablet" setup ? | 02:20 |
| dr_willis | redir --help ? ;) | 02:20 |
| savagejen | taek, most of the time | 02:20 |
| dr_willis | man redir ? | 02:20 |
| taek | I am wondering if there's an issue with ubuntu not reading the switch state of the screen | 02:21 |
| savagejen | taek, there's currently no recognition by the laptop of what position the screen is in, which is something I hope to be able to find a way to configure at some point | 02:21 |
| dr_willis | im so used to reading books on my kindle paperwhite.. reading them on a full laptop would seem weird. | 02:21 |
| savagejen | er, Ubuntu doesn't seem to read the accelerometer I think | 02:21 |
| cuddylier | dr_willis: http://pastebin.com/aXqkjer2 | 02:21 |
| taek | That might be where you're getting an the errors from?. | 02:21 |
| savagejen | oh, interesting | 02:22 |
| taek | the laptop might be sending it as a keypress or some such. | 02:22 |
| taek | I don't know personally, but just throwing thoughts out. | 02:22 |
| savagejen | I guess, with the ubuntu tablet coming out, I was just hoping ubuntu would have full support of the touch screen interfaces in all of these fancy new ultrabooks | 02:23 |
| savagejen | maybe with a bit of configuration | 02:23 |
| taek | I figured they would of solved that issue with the invention of Unity. | 02:23 |
| taek | But different hardwares do things differently | 02:23 |
| savagejen | yeah | 02:23 |
| wilee-nilee | taek, Since you just guessing what about gobl;ins. | 02:24 |
| savagejen | although it looks like a bunch of us Ubuntu users have Lenovo Yogas now | 02:24 |
| taek | Goblins are always outside my window!! I am affraind to go out there! | 02:24 |
| wilee-nilee | taek, Somehow I believe that. | 02:24 |
| dr_willis | http://linux.die.net/man/1/redir ii would think it may not have such options, just logging options, since it seems to be designed to work as a service | 02:24 |
| taek | :D | 02:24 |
| taek | anyhow, let me get back into desktop mode and out of ptty1 | 02:25 |
| savagejen | just use netcat :D | 02:25 |
| savagejen | pipe netcat to netcat | 02:25 |
| cuddylier | dr_willis yeah, just wonder how I'm meant to remove redirects or even see a list lol | 02:25 |
| dr_willis | cuddylier: ;) it was hard even finding a google hit for docs.. the term 'redir' is a bit vague | 02:26 |
| cuddylier | Yeah lol | 02:26 |
| cuddylier | Such a good program and exactly what I needed but little docs :( | 02:26 |

| Taek | Have to doo too much to get to what you want | 02:28 |
| Wulframn | I dislike Unity, too. I haven't used it on a touchscreen, though, so I can't give it a fair shake. | 02:29 |
| dr_willis | then again i ju,p around so many differnt OS's and desktops on a weekly basis (or daily basis) it dosent matter what desktop im using | 02:29 |
| Taek | Well, I attempted to stay with Unbutu 10.04.4 as long as I can | 02:29 |
| Taek | They phased it out. | 02:29 |
| Taek | There's MATE but.. not developed enough for my usage. | 02:30 |
| dr_willis | the latest gnome-shell has an offical gnome-2 type mode i belive.. ive not tried it. | 02:30 |
| Wulframn | I'm using xfce | 02:30 |
| dr_willis | I can see mate and cinnimon vananishing in the near future | 02:30 |
| Taek | Problem with MATE is.. There don't have enough devs for how many distros they are working on | 02:30 |
| dr_willis | manpower is always the limiting factor these days it seems | 02:31 |
| Taek | Well, they have maybe one dedicated dev per OS/Distro, and a few floaters.. | 02:32 |
| Taek | As awesome as it would be for them to stay up todate with the distros changes, they arn't able to. | 02:32 |
| dr_willis | its really amazing how few devs are responsible for some of the major apps, and tools out there. | 02:32 |

| nimdAHK_ | like I did with all my other machines? | 02:50 |
| Taek | I assume after you cofigure it, you should beable to do so | 02:50 |
| Taek | also note, since TeamViewer for (LOinux) runs in Wine - It might not actually have the ability to do it. | 02:51 |
| Taek | Linux* | 02:52 |
| nimdAHK_ | Yeah I noticed the bundled wine | 02:52 |
| nimdAHK_ | it's just interesting that the option is completely removed without a mention on the internet | 02:53 |

| Psil0cybin | Hey guys can someone help me I recently updated my computure through the update manager, and now when i try and boot into ubuntu i sometimes get a blackscreen or i get booted into the text only console, and cannot access the GUI. This only started happening after the update....and i have to restarted 3 or 5 times to get into the GUI | 02:56 |
| Psil0cybin | how can i diagnose and fix this error | 02:56 |
| Psil0cybin | or do i keep using the older kernal? | 02:56 |
| Taek | Just my guess, but have you updated the video driver? | 02:56 |
| Psil0cybin | I might have i updated everything it wanted to update | 02:57 |
| Psil0cybin | Cederview i think is the driver that got updated | 02:57 |
| Psil0cybin | but i tried reinstalling it, it worked for a few boots and now its doing it again | 02:57 |

| Psil0Cybin | To be honest i am not really sure :P I just know usually i allow every update, and nothing goes wrong, I am kinda new to Ubuntu thats why i want to learn how to diagnose it | 02:59 |
| Psil0Cybin | but you think its the driver? | 02:59 |
| Taek | It's a possiblity | 03:00 |
| Taek | when you get access to the gui again, try checking with the Additionhal Drivers | 03:00 |

| WACOMalt | Anyone in here familliar with qemu? I am getting terrible speeds on my windows guest and I assume it's due to the network settings in qemu. I havent changed anything fromt he default and although I get about 40Mbps upload on linux I get about 70Kbps on the windows guest | 03:16 |
| Taek | Why use qemu? | 03:17 |
| WACOMalt | because the server is headless | 03:17 |
| Taek | Not that it really matters in your choice, jut curious. | 03:17 |
| WACOMalt | and I was told it was the fastest | 03:17 |
| deezed | hey guys! I cant connect to a wpa wireless connection if there is any special caracther here, like Ć© or Ć³. Do you know what can I do? | 03:17 |
| Taek | All my experiences with qemu have been horrible | 03:17 |
| WACOMalt | the server is headless and qemu gives you a vnc server directly to control the VM with | 03:17 |
| WACOMalt | it runs great aside from the network speed issue | 03:17 |
| Taek | is it running on a dedicated server? | 03:18 |
| Taek | FYI all my experiences with qemu have been on windows afaik. | 03:19 |
| deezed | hey everyone, I'm trying to connect here to a wireless wpa2 connection which the password has special characters like "Ć©" but I'm not allowed to connect,. Do you know what can I do? | 03:21 |
| Taek | Change the wifi password? | 03:21 |
| deezed | I cant, its from my girlfriend's house, and her mate wont like it | 03:22 |
| nimdAHK | sounds like you and the router are using different encodings | 03:22 |
| Taek | ^ | 03:23 |
| deezed | nimdAHK: maybe...do you know how can I figure it out? | 03:23 |
| Taek | First off, figure out what enconding you're using? | 03:23 |
| Taek | I believe most routers use UTF-8 . | 03:23 |
| nimdAHK | try a different network manager too | 03:23 |
| Taek | Then again I am in U.S. so everything here is simplified. | 03:24 |
| deezed | nimdAHK: like which one? | 03:24 |
| nimdAHK | gotta catch 'em all? | 03:24 |
| deezed | Taek: true | 03:24 |
| nimdAHK | wicd maybe | 03:24 |
| deezed | nimdAHK: ok, I'll try! | 03:24 |
| deezed | nimdAHK: thanks | 03:24 |
| nimdAHK | yw, good luck! | 03:24 |
| ristra | hi, i am trying to get my wifi to work on 12.04 | 03:25 |
| Taek | Network Adapter Chipset? | 03:25 |
| usr13 | ristra: So what is the problem? | 03:25 |
| ristra | at some point, I think I messed up my /etc/network/interfaces file | 03:25 |
| Taek | Pastebin? | 03:25 |
| ristra | it doesn't have a wlan on it | 03:25 |
| ristra | okie, hold on, i ll pastebin it | 03:25 |
| usr13 | ristra: iwconfig #What does that say? | 03:26 |
| Taek | No wLan? add it?. | 03:26 |
| ristra | usr13 it only list eth0 and lo | 03:26 |
| Taek | Is it a PCI(e) or USB Adapter ristra | 03:27 |
| usr13 | What wifi device do you have? ( lspci ) | 03:27 |
| ristra | Taek, yeap that is the idea but since I am very new (i cant stress the @very@ enough!) I was wondering if it add it on a specific position or something | 03:27 |
| Taek | What brand is it ristra ? | 03:27 |
| poz | so i have installed the lastest version of backports from here: http://drvbp1.linux-foundation.org/~mcgrof/rel-html/backports/ | 03:27 |
| ristra | toshiba satellite c855 | 03:27 |
| usr13 | ristra: Wait, what does iwconfig say? iwconfig | pastebinit #Show us URL | 03:27 |
| poz | and now my usb wireless chip wont work | 03:28 |
| varunendra | ristra, pastebin the report generated by wireless_script : http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=12350385 | 03:28 |
| === ken_ is now known as Guest58812 | ||
| ristra | http://pastebin.com/Fk1qLZzK here is my interfaces files | 03:28 |
| poz | anyone have any ideas | 03:28 |
| varunendra | that script will show almost everything (secure) wifi related. Everyone. | 03:28 |
| poz | it is like ubuntu doesnt even see the usb wireless dongle | 03:28 |
| varunendra | poz, do you have a wired connection now? | 03:29 |
| kmyst | anybody able to help with some routing issues? trying to route three networks and running into an issue where i can only ping some things | 03:29 |
| poz | i am using my laptops built in wireless card | 03:29 |
| poz | the usb wireless card was working before i installed the backports | 03:30 |
| poz | it is like the driver or somthing was over written and now it wont detect that it is plugged in | 03:30 |
| ristra | http://pastebin.com/NTfLdeFt has my interfaces file and the report from iwconfig | 03:30 |
| varunendra | poz, we need to see "lsusb" and "nm-tool" output. | 03:30 |
| poz | okay, one sec | 03:31 |
| ristra | first question i guess is : can i just add wlan to interfaces file? | 03:31 |
| usr13 | ristra: lspci | pastebinit #send url | 03:31 |
| Taek | Hopefully LSUSB sees it and can give us a chipset O.o | 03:31 |
| ristra | usr13 here it is http://pastebin.com/XKiDSgm1 | 03:32 |
| ristra | the network controller is there | 03:32 |
| poz | varunendra, here are the results of both commends: http://pastebin.com/1d97dT31 | 03:32 |
| Taek | Two wifi adapters | 03:33 |
| Taek | One Atheros and another Realtek | 03:33 |
| poz | this seems to be the usb wireless dongle Realtek Semiconductor Corp. RTL8192CU 802.11n WLAN Adapte | 03:33 |
| Taek | Need to run a special driver for it | 03:33 |
| Taek | well I consider it special; | 03:34 |
| Taek | I forgot what it was called, but you need to run the bcwrapper? | 03:34 |
| Taek | I think that's it | 03:34 |
| soni1877 | http://pastebin.com/e0xdrMM4 | 03:34 |
| Taek | oh wait, that's for broadcom | 03:34 |
| soni1877 | varunendra: http://pastebin.com/e0xdrMM4 | 03:34 |
| varunendra | poz, you are using WPA/WPA2 mixed mode in the router. Not always a problem but more than often it is. Try changing it to pure WPA2-PSK (AES) only. No TKIP, no mixed mode. | 03:35 |
| usr13 | ristra: 12.04? Fully updated? | 03:35 |
| ristra | usr13: it was a fresh install until I started trying to fix this issue | 03:36 |
| ristra | I tried several different solutions I found online | 03:36 |
| usr13 | ristra: 12.04 Desktop? Is it fully updated? | 03:36 |
| poz | varunendra, this problem is independent of the router | 03:36 |
| ristra | and I just run the updater so yet, fully updated | 03:36 |
| poz | i can not get ubuntu to detect my usb wireless card | 03:36 |
| ristra | 280+ updated modules | 03:36 |
| usr13 | ristra: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade | 03:36 |
| ristra | ok, i ll run that, hold on | 03:37 |
| ristra | and thanks by the way :) | 03:37 |
| ristra | all is upgraded | 03:38 |
| deezed | hey guys I'm trying to connect to my girlfriend's wireless network, but I can't! First I thought it was because the password had special characters, but its not. And the funniest part is that windows can connect!!! | 03:38 |
| varunendra | soni1877, try - "sudo modprobe -rfv rtl8192cu" ..... then ......... "sudo modprobe -v rtl8192cu swenc=Y" . See if it improves the connectivity. | 03:38 |
| deezed | do you know what can I do? | 03:38 |
| Taek | deezed: what wireless encryption mode is it running in?. | 03:39 |
| ristra | is it ok to change my /etc/network/interfaces to this: http://pastebin.com/uisvwSV1 ? | 03:39 |

| deezed | Taek: just connection failed | 03:43 |
| usr13 | deezed: iwlist <wifi-name-here> -scan | 03:44 |

| ristra_ | i broke it but I managed to get back hurra | 03:45 |

| usr13 | deezed: scratch the - just iwlist wifi-device-name scan | 03:46 |
| Taek | shouldn't it be iwlist wifi-ssid scan? | 03:46 |

| deezed | usr13: ok, so now what do I do? | 03:47 |
| deezed | the access point is not-associated | 03:47 |

| wilee-nilee | Moonlightning, You have a boot partition? | 03:53 |
| Moonlightning | Yes? | 03:53 |
| wilee-nilee | Moonlightning, Ah generally not needed, however the ubuntu-tweak app has a janitor app that will clean up the extra kernels and other stuff. | 03:54 |
| wilee-nilee | Moonlightning, Ubuntu tweak is in a PPA. | 03:55 |
| Taek | Old kernels should be removable with apt-get auto-remove | 03:55 |
| Taek | apt-get autoremove | 03:55 |
| wilee-nilee | Not rue but can be done from the cli | 03:55 |
| wilee-nilee | true* | 03:55 |
| Moonlightning | I did autoremove | 03:55 |
| Moonlightning | It didn't remove any of the kernels :( | 03:55 |
| Taek | You can try with Ubuntu Tweak as wilee-nilee suggested. | 03:56 |
| Moonlightning | I only have a CLI though | 03:56 |
| wilee-nilee | Moonlightning, If you want a nice gui use the tweak, can be done from the terminal or synaptic as well. | 03:56 |
| wilee-nilee | the tweak gets the configs as well, nice little app really | 03:57 |
| Moonlightning | What's the name of the package? | 03:57 |
| wilee-nilee | ubuntu tweak it is in a ppa | 03:57 |
| wilee-nilee | http://ubuntu-tweak.com/ Or you can download the deb | 03:58 |
| wilee-nilee | here is the ppa be sure to load the key use the read about installing to get the key with the load. | 03:59 |
| wilee-nilee | https://launchpad.net/~tualatrix/+archive/ppa | 03:59 |
| Moonlightning | Agh | 03:59 |
| Moonlightning | Can't I just do it with apt-get? >.< | 03:59 |
| Taek | Manually delete it okay :D | 03:59 |
| wilee-nilee | Moonlightning, After loading the resorce yes, it is not in the ubuntu repos | 04:00 |
| Moonlightning | After what? | 04:00 |
| poz | real simple question, say i downloaded a driver and there is a install.sh file... how do i use this to install the driver? | 04:00 |
| Taek | you add the ppa | 04:00 |
| Moonlightning | Taek: yeah, looks like I"m gonna be doing that | 04:00 |
| Taek | poz sudo ./file.sh | 04:00 |
| Taek | or sudo file.sh | 04:01 |
| Taek | one of those | 04:01 |
| tux1000 | hi | 04:01 |
| poz | well i tryed sudo install.sh | 04:01 |
| poz | did not work | 04:01 |
| Taek | then try sudo ./install.sh | 04:01 |
| Moonlightning | Grrrrrrrrr. If I just `sudo apt-get remove` everything except the latest two kernels, I should be fine, right? | 04:01 |
| Taek | if neither, sudo sh install.sh | 04:01 |
| poz | sudo ./install.sh | 04:02 |
| poz | sudo: ./install.sh: command not found | 04:02 |
| poz | sudo sh install.sh worked | 04:02 |
| poz | thank you | 04:02 |
| Nimble | lol | 04:02 |
| Nimble | you probably needed to do "chmod +x ./install.sh" | 04:02 |
| Phoenix1969 | black screen when booting into ubuntu first time... after choosing the os at the blu startup screen | 04:03 |
| wilee-nilee | Moonlightning, dpkg -l | grep linux-image to see kernels then sudo apt-get purge | 04:03 |
| Moonlightning | `sudo apt-get purge` all but the latest two kernels? | 04:03 |
| wilee-nilee | be careful is all I will say | 04:03 |
| Moonlightning | I was trying, but I kinda don't have time to muck around with PPAs x.x | 04:03 |
| wilee-nilee | most keep two sets yeah | 04:03 |
| wilee-nilee | Moonlightning, The ppa would be one command to load a update and install run the app and all done. | 04:04 |
| Moonlightning | Can I get a copypastable command, or | 04:04 |
| tux1000 | install ultrastar deluxe in ubuntu 13.4 | 04:04 |

| Moonlightning | Is there a command I can run to check if the system is bootable as it is now? | 04:10 |

| poz | it has not solved my problem | 04:10 |

| wilee-nilee | poz, when you post something are are talking with someone use their nick, you had a pro helper got as far as posting their script but did n ot direct it at them with their nick. | 04:11 |
| Taek | No. poz | 04:11 |
| poz | i installed the driver from the manufactuing website, but the wireless usb dongle still does not work | 04:11 |
| Taek | anonee: did you look in /usr/share/applications for the icon itself that was listed in the file? | 04:12 |
| wilee-nilee | !who | poz | 04:12 |
| ubottu | poz: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 04:12 |
| poz | i understand | 04:12 |
| Moonlightning | [open query] Is there a command I can run to check if the system is bootable as it is now? | 04:12 |
| poz | taek, maybe i missed it as I was restarting my computer | 04:12 |
| anonee | Taek I don't understand, you mean the .desktop file contains an icon?! | 04:13 |
| wilee-nilee | poz, Cool we want you to succeed. ;) | 04:13 |
| Taek | you said there was a file you looked into in /usr/share/applications/ | 04:13 |
| Taek | anonee* | 04:13 |
| Taek | anonee: did you happen to look for the icon file in the same folder with the file you retrieved the icon name from | 04:14 |
| wilee-nilee | Moonlightning, run sudo update-grub | 04:16 |
| anonee | Taek /usr/share/applications contains .desktop files, they contain something like this: | 04:16 |

| Taek | anonee: I am aware of what's in there | 04:17 |
| Taek | do you know the location of the icon you want to use? | 04:17 |
| wilee-nilee | Moonlightning, Never heard of yaboot, there must be a autoload or file to check the boot. | 04:17 |
| anonee | Taek that was just an example, there's still more 9 lines... | 04:17 |
| Moonlightning | argh | 04:17 |
| wilee-nilee | Moonlightning, Your answers are probably here. http://www.debian.org/ports/powerpc/inst/yaboot-howto/ | 04:18 |
| Taek | anonee: did you logout/in after making your icon change? | 04:18 |
| anonee | Oh sorry Taek, then what do you suggest? it says: icon=tomboy but where is tomboy?! | 04:18 |
| Pepperonipizza | im trying to copy one large dir + sub dirs to another, but I don't want to overwrite existing files only copy the new ones, will cp -rvn do that ? | 04:18 |

| ntzrmtthihu777 | I don't suppose anyone here has a tutorial on how to create a package like flashplugin-installer or oracle-java7-installer, one that just downloads something and installes it for you? | 04:20 |
| Moonlightning | [open query] Isn't there just some apt-get command to redo all the...whatever it normally does when you install|remove kernels? | 04:20 |
| Taek | Moonlightning: I believe not. | 04:21 |
| Moonlightning | Aaaaargh. | 04:21 |
| Taek | I could be wrong, but I am pretty certain there isn't. | 04:21 |

| ntzrmtthihu777 | lol XD | 04:25 |
| wilee-nilee | Taek, This is a family channel. | 04:25 |
| Pepperonipizza | why does cp -rvn /dir /newdir -- clobber stuff I thought it wasn't supposed to | 04:25 |
| DarkAceLaptop | is there something similar to /timer command (hexchat) that I can use in the command line? | 04:25 |
| DarkAceLaptop | basically, something that will execute a command after an amount of time | 04:26 |
| wilee-nilee | DarkAceLaptop, There is #xchat for help as well, I use hexcaht same basic apps. | 04:26 |
| Taek | DarkAceLaptop: Have you tried "Sleep(600)" or "Sleep 600" | 04:27 |
| anonee | Taek I just did, no joy. I expected this cuz I restarted the program before. | 04:27 |
| DarkAceLaptop | hmm | 04:27 |
| Taek | Pretty common using sleep | 04:27 |
| wilee-nilee | DarkAceLaptop, Can you be specific, that is a vague decription at least to me. | 04:27 |
| Taek | anonee: did you modify the icon in /usr/share/icons/default/ ? | 04:27 |
| Taek | or in just a random folder? | 04:28 |
| wilee-nilee | a like refrence only means something to someone who knows what you are talking about. | 04:28 |
| Moonlightning | welp | 04:28 |
| DarkAceLaptop | ah, thanks Taek | 04:28 |
| Moonlightning | If it comes down to it, I should be able to boot using this old kernel | 04:28 |
| DarkAceLaptop | wilee-nilee, sleep is just what I was looking for | 04:28 |
| Moonlightning | rebooting now, wish me luck :P | 04:28 |
| wilee-nilee | ah cool | 04:28 |
| Taek | Moonlightning: G/L | 04:28 |
| Taek | DarkAceLaptop: It's a pretty common command in alot of scripting languages | 04:29 |
| ntzrmtthihu777 | so no-one knows about that? | 04:29 |
| anonee | Taek no! I did a search for the program name and there were icons only in the hicolor theme, although I'm not using this theme, but these were the icons that I modified! but I'll check now. | 04:29 |
| wilee-nilee | ntzrmtthihu777, Not really needed in linux per-say | 04:29 |
| wilee-nilee | plenty of package types and loaders already | 04:30 |
| ntzrmtthihu777 | wilee-nilee: I'm doing this for the non-techs, lol. | 04:30 |
| Taek | DarkAceLaptop: FYI sleep in most scripting languages pauses the script for the given amount of time specified prior to continuing on | 04:30 |
| DarkAceLaptop | yeah, so 'sleep 500; command' | 04:31 |
| wilee-nilee | ntzrmtthihu777, Ah, adding to the confusion, you go then. ;) | 04:31 |
| Taek | DarkAceLaptop: 500 devided by 60 | 04:31 |
| Taek | Should tell you how long it will pause for in seconds | 04:31 |
| DarkAceLaptop | is there a way of asking a program to exit, or is that what kill does? | 04:31 |
| Taek | EXIT 0 | 04:32 |
| Taek | in most cases DarkAceLaptop | 04:32 |
| === _BJFreeman is now known as BJfreeman | ||
| Taek | EXIT or EXIT 0 | 04:32 |
| lotuspsychje | DarkAceLaptop: theres one that can kill apps after memory limit too | 04:32 |
| Taek | depends on the language you're scripting in | 04:32 |
| lotuspsychje | forget its name | 04:32 |
| DarkAceLaptop | as in, a command via terminal | 04:32 |
| anonee | Taek guess what! the default directory only contains index.theme and it says inherit=DMZ-White and DMZ-White has only cursors. how can you explain that?! | 04:32 |
| Pepperonipizza | trying to copy files without overwriting but cp -rvn is overwriting... any ideas ? | 04:32 |
| ntzrmtthihu777 | Pepperonipizza: cp -rvnc? | 04:32 |
| Pepperonipizza | ntzrmtthihu777: whats c ? | 04:33 |
| Taek | anonee: Not a clue, dpn' | 04:33 |
| Taek | don't think I could explain even if I knew haha | 04:33 |

| Taek | techne? | 04:34 |
| Pepperonipizza | Taek: well -n is no clobber = no overwrite I though | 04:34 |
| wilee-nilee | ntzrmtthihu777, I understand. | 04:34 |
| ntzrmtthihu777 | wilee-nilee: I got it working manually, but not everyone using linux is that techie :P | 04:35 |
| Taek | Pepperonipizza: try with -i instead of in | 04:35 |
| Taek | -n * | 04:35 |
| Taek | see if will work with interactive overwrite requests | 04:35 |
| PiyushB | in dd command the base size is refers to page size in memory of the block to be written on harddisk ? | 04:35 |

| Pepperonipizza | Taek: yes its asking | 04:36 |
| Taek | Pepperonipizza: you are correct though -n is supposed to not allow overwriting | 04:37 |
| Pepperonipizza | varunendra: ok so rsync -rv -- but what switch is like -n on cp ? | 04:38 |
| Pepperonipizza | ---ignore-existing | 04:38 |
| Pepperonipizza | k | 04:38 |
| ntzrmtthihu777 | Pepperonipizza: maybe -u ? it only copies when the new file is newer than the destination | 04:38 |

| aoglobalent | o.k., I just did a fresh install of Ubuntu's latest version. I have not used Linux in apx 4 years, so I am very "green" to this all. I am installing catalyst for my 7990's. It is taking a bit, but needless to say it is workjing thus far... That being said what I need to know is how to access my repositories? | 04:42 |
| Pepperonipizza | varunendra: ntzrmtthihu777 itseems like using both -u and --ignore-existing is working | 04:42 |
| holstein | aoglobalent: what repositories do you have? | 04:43 |
| Taek | aoglobalent: repositories for what? | 04:43 |
| wilee-nilee | aoglobalent, name the actual install, what are your repositories. | 04:43 |
| holstein | aoglobalent: ppa's? | 04:43 |
| Taek | Ubuntu Software Center if you need to look for something aoglobalent. | 04:43 |
| happyface | how can I login to a mounted linux volume? I have a /mnt/wontBoot filesystem with a broken image and I want to login as root and fix it | 04:43 |
| aoglobalent | ahhh | 04:43 |
| aoglobalent | ok | 04:44 |
| anonee | Taek could the icon be inside the application like in windows? | 04:44 |
| holstein | happyface: i usually just hit it with a live CD | 04:44 |
| Pepperonipizza | happyface: chroot ? | 04:44 |
| happyface | Pepperonipizza: yeah chroot, that's it! thanks | 04:44 |
| Taek | anonee: Not all icons are inside their applications in windows. but there is a possiblity. | 04:44 |
| holstein | !chroot | 04:44 |
| ubottu | A chroot is used to make programs believe that the directory they are running in is really the root directory. It can be used to stop programs accessing files outside of that directory, or for compiling 32bit applications in a 64bit environment - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicChroot | 04:44 |
| aoglobalent | I am running a dual core because this is a mining Rig and needless to say, I needed to run one Linux box for various reasons.. That being said, can I find CGMiner in the repos? | 04:44 |
| Pepperonipizza | happyface: np ;-D | 04:44 |
| Taek | aoglobalent: most things like that are not in the Official Ubuntu Repos, but you can look to see | 04:45 |
| aoglobalent | I believe that is why it is taking so long for these ATI drivers to be installed... I mean this thing has been going for about 20 minutes now :/ | 04:45 |
| aoglobalent | got yah | 04:45 |
| aoglobalent | Taek, thanks allot for the help :) | 04:46 |
| Pepperonipizza | aoglobalent: 7990's in linux, what for lol? | 04:46 |
| wilee-nilee | aoglobalent, It is in the saucy universe | 04:46 |
| Taek | aoglobalent: I just did a search, CGMiner is not there - you'll probably have to compile it from source | 04:46 |

| ntiy | hey. I am trying to do something like: ssh host "do smth | awk '{print $1}' " and it does not work. AWK part does not seem so process output of smth and print only first column. Instead I get full output. Can someone explain why? | 04:47 |
| Taek | Oh, it's in the extras.. | 04:47 |
| aoglobalent | well, that is what they say, but I say dif.... | 04:47 |
| aoglobalent | I am not even fully operations yet, and I am mining Coins no problem... | 04:47 |
| aoglobalent | The problem has become the Asic Miners Really | 04:47 |
| aoglobalent | They have taken the difficulty levels through the roof | 04:47 |
| aoglobalent | but there are alt Coin's, etc.... | 04:48 |
| Taek | Asic?. | 04:48 |
| aoglobalent | YUP | 04:48 |
| wilee-nilee | alex_, HOw about a link to it or some details. | 04:48 |
| aoglobalent | they are a type of Mining Chip | 04:48 |
| aoglobalent | I am not to clear on the whole story to be honest, but essentialy there are new mining machines that do 10x more than GPU's with 10X less power consumption | 04:48 |
| alex_ | wilee-nilee: http://www.ubuntu.com/ | 04:49 |
| Taek | ntiy I don't think you can run a command on the same line as ssh host directly | 04:49 |
| aoglobalent | The Power consumption on these baby's ios the problem.... | 04:49 |
| viju | Hello, how do I check what new version of the update is available for a package? | 04:49 |
| Pepperonipizza | if I had 7990's i'd game on them haha. | 04:49 |
| Taek | viju: update manager. | 04:49 |
| wilee-nilee | alex_, they might know better in #ubuntu-touch | 04:49 |
| ntiy | Taek: you definitely can do ssh host 'hostname' | 04:50 |
| Taek | I didn't say you couldn't ntiy | 04:50 |
| ntiy | Taek: what did you mean then? | 04:50 |
| Taek | ntiy: I don't believe you can run a command in the same line with the ssh host command | 04:50 |
| viju | Taek: I am looking for thunderbird update, in update manager there's nohing is listed about Thunderbird | 04:51 |
| Taek | Basically what you are doing is running two commands in the same line | 04:51 |
| Taek | viju http://www.mozzila.com/thunderbird | 04:51 |
| Taek | should do it | 04:51 |
| ntiy | am I not running one command on a remote host? | 04:51 |
| Taek | mis-spelling lol | 04:51 |
| Taek | viju: sorry about that link - correctly -> http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/ | 04:52 |
| wilee-nilee | viju, Wot does not like that link, what thnderbird do you ahve and what do you want. | 04:52 |
| wilee-nilee | second link is okay, not sure why one would not use the repos. | 04:53 |
| Taek | Why is it everytime I stand up - my wife's cat runs for dear life! | 04:53 |
| Taek | wilee-nilee: the person wishes to check version | 04:53 |
| steve__ | I was just trying to update my Ubuntu to 12.04 and I got an error saying it could not import a module during Installing the uprades part of the download | 04:54 |
| wilee-nilee | Taek, The repos have the same versions in 24 hrs or less. | 04:54 |
| Taek | steve__: to which version are you updating? | 04:54 |
| viju | I'll check that Taek . wilee-nilee my msn mails are not being fetched since april but it used to work pulling out some data, so when I check out that it's downloading same old mails from the past and now I have lots of duplicates. Someone suggested downloading a newer version should help solve the problem. | 04:54 |
| steve__ | I rebooted it and got stuck at a command line that say (initramfs) | 04:54 |
| steve__ | Taek: 12.04 | 04:55 |
| Taek | steve__: from 12.04 to which? | 04:55 |
| steve__ | also says BusyBox v1. 13.3 | 04:55 |
| wilee-nilee | viju, What doe the help in yuour thunderbird show as a version? | 04:55 |
| steve__ | Taek no from 10 to 12 | 04:56 |
| Taek | Weird, I just did it couple of days ago without issue | 04:56 |
| Taek | from 1.04.4 to 12.04 | 04:56 |
| Taek | 10.04.4 to 12.04 | 04:56 |
| steve__ | yep | 04:56 |
| Taek | how did you initiate the upgrade? | 04:56 |
| viju | wilee-nilee: 17.0.6 | 04:57 |
| steve__ | USB | 04:57 |
| Taek | Hmm | 04:57 |
| steve__ | I installed it onto the ram first | 04:57 |
| Taek | Somehow somewhere it's possible that the USB drive got disconnected. | 04:57 |
| wilee-nilee | viju, Only thing newer is 17.0.7, I doubt the problem is a upgrade needed, have you asked in ##windows as far as any changes to MSN. | 04:57 |
| ntiy | there is my answer if anyone is wondering: ssh host "do smth | awk '{print \$1}' " | 04:58 |
| ntiy | thanks all | 04:58 |

| viju | wilee-nilee: I am doing it now | 04:59 |
| wilee-nilee | steve__, This is a desktop right? | 04:59 |
| Taek | Usually if something like that happens to me, I just download the latest distro or the one I want and install fresh | 04:59 |
| steve__ | wilee: yep | 04:59 |
| wilee-nilee | viju, Cool I see you there. | 04:59 |
| steve__ | I'm just going to uimage another USB stick | 04:59 |

| xmetal | but that is USB too | 05:00 |
| Taek | wilee-nilee: his upgrade failed hard during install of one of the packages | 05:00 |

| Taek | what the!!!.. now I can't login.. permission denied (pubkey) | 05:02 |

| Taek | Why would I get a permissions died (pubkey) | 05:03 |
| Taek | when attempting to ssh | 05:03 |
| Taek | Unless.. my pub keys didn't stay! | 05:03 |

| netlar | I am using the AMD driver, should I be blacklisting the open source driver? | 05:05 |
| wilee-nilee | steve__, It is rather unusual for it to just error out in a install, going to a eol to upgrade is a bad idea, use the mini netload maybe. | 05:05 |
| wilee-nilee | or check the sum and or download 12.04 again in the torrent maybe. | 05:06 |

| tracekill | So, is UEFI pretty much the death sentence for dual booting that it seems to be? | 05:13 |

| Calinou | <Calinou> i have kernel panics 1) randomly when booting, 2) often when my CPU is at full load, on xubuntu 13.04 | 06:22 |
| Calinou | also had this on 12.10, with two different RAMs and storages. | 06:22 |
| Calinou | (but I never had it on booting) | 06:22 |
| Calinou | also read somewhere ubuntu hates SSDs | 06:22 |
| ikonia | Calinou: ok, that's just wrong | 06:22 |
| Calinou | and that's why I crash sometimes on boot | 06:22 |
| ikonia | nope | 06:22 |
| ikonia | there is zero chance of that being the case | 06:23 |
| Calinou | i read the 3.8.0-19 kernel was panicky | 06:23 |
| ikonia | nope | 06:23 |
| ikonia | you seem to be reading a lot of random made up information | 06:23 |
| Calinou | it's not overheating, my CPU hardly hits 55Ā°C at load | 06:24 |
| Calinou | same for graphics card | 06:24 |

| wilee-nilee | Calinou, Sounds like you might develop a critical thinking process, double check what you read, I run ubuntu on a SSD with o problems. | 06:38 |
| Calinou | i'm not asking for ops dissing me here 8) | 06:39 |
| wilee-nilee | Calinou, Nobodies dissing you that critical thinking is what you learn in academia. | 06:40 |

| Taek | so instead of having to open terminal and continue to use it to play, I made a app launcher | 06:47 |
| Calinou | mohawk: they are safe | 06:47 |
| Calinou | and if you're using steam or a proprietary driver right now, you're being hypocritic 8) | 06:48 |
| ikonia | what ? | 06:48 |
| Calinou | people complain about ubuntu, and they use tons of proprietary stuff. | 06:48 |
| Calinou | once i even saw people using skype | 06:48 |
| Taek | I have an actual icon to click on the side to launch minecraft, Calinou | 06:48 |
| Calinou | it's just a .sh script or a .desktop file | 06:49 |
| ikonia | Calinou: his question has NOTHING to do with propritary software, you appear to have real issues reading information given to you | 06:49 |
| Calinou | no i'm relating both | 06:49 |
| ikonia | Calinou: this is nothing to do with propitary software, please help people with the questions they ask, not your weak attempts to be negative about things | 06:50 |
| Taek | ikonia: I wasn't asking a question haha | 06:50 |
| ikonia | Taek: who said you where ? | 06:50 |
| Taek | Just stating. | 06:50 |
| ikonia | thanks for that random bit of info | 06:50 |
| Calinou | does anyone have any idea why does my problem occur? | 06:51 |
| ikonia | Calinou: what have you done to investigate it ? | 06:51 |
| Calinou | tried with several RAMs already, tried resetting BIOS settings | 06:52 |
| ikonia | that is just random | 06:52 |
| ikonia | what have you actually done to investigate it | 06:52 |
| Taek | What's your issue Calinou ? | 06:52 |
| Alegreya | trol | 06:52 |
| Calinou | kernel panics (or freeze + reboot) when I use 100% CPU, or sometimes when booting or logging in | 06:53 |
| Calinou | what do you mean by "actually done to investigate it"? | 06:53 |
| Taek | ANd you are certain this is caused by ram?. | 06:53 |
| ikonia | Calinou: well, what have you done to look at the problem / diagnose it, find a pattern/rule out a pattern | 06:53 |
| Calinou | no? i'm actually thinking it's a software issue | 06:53 |
| ikonia | Calinou: the odds are it is a software issue | 06:54 |
| Calinou | i get this problem since i built my PC in march | 06:54 |
| Alegreya | its caused by cat fur in the cpu fan | 06:54 |
| ikonia | Alegreya: stop it now | 06:54 |
| Calinou | no, i even changed the thermal paste recently, to no avail | 06:54 |
| ikonia | Alegreya: help with real help, or be quiet | 06:54 |
| Taek | Calinou: have you attempted to try with an alternate OS, windows perhaps? | 06:54 |
| ikonia | Calinou: ok, so lets look at it a bit logically | 06:54 |
| ikonia | Calinou: what's your current OS ? | 06:54 |
| Calinou | xubuntu 13.04 64 bit | 06:54 |
| ikonia | Calinou: ok, you said you built this PC in march correct ? | 06:55 |
| Calinou | yes | 06:55 |
| afflicto_ | Hey all, I recently did "sudo apt-get remove compiz" by accident. What should I do? | 06:55 |
| ikonia | Calinou: has ubuntu 13.04 always been the OS on it (doubtful as 04 is after march) | 06:55 |
| Calinou | used to use xubuntu 12.10 64 bit on it | 06:55 |
| aeon-ltd | afflicto: install it again? | 06:55 |
| ikonia | afflicto_: re-install it ? | 06:55 |
| ikonia | Calinou: ok, in the short time you used 12.10 - did you have this problem ? | 06:55 |
| Alegreya | accident... | 06:55 |
| Calinou | IIRC, only when 100% CPU is used, not when booting | 06:56 |
| Taek | You don't accidently remove compiz in terminal.. | 06:56 |
| ikonia | Calinou: ok, so there is still a panic though, so for at least one root cause, you can stop thinking abou things like kernel as they are different between the two versions | 06:56 |
| afflicto_ | I was gonna remove copmiz-settings-manager thing xD | 06:56 |
| ikonia | agreed ? | 06:56 |
| Taek | ikonia: Agreed. | 06:56 |
| ikonia | Taek: ok, so the first thing I heard early was "disable all my PPA's" | 06:57 |
| ikonia | Taek: oops, sorry not you | 06:57 |
| Taek | HAHAH | 06:57 |
| ikonia | Calinou: the first thing I heard earlier is "disable all my PPA's" | 06:57 |
| ikonia | Calinou: PPA's are not supported/maintained by the ubuntu core dev team, and often are just terrible software, | 06:58 |
| Calinou | relevant: http://forum.ubuntu-fr.org/viewtopic.php?id=1286311 (french) | 06:58 |
| lenz | Hey guys! I'd like to install a linux-based OS on a piece of hardware that I have here.. It's a JayBook 9901 (one of those tiny chinese netbooks) and it has a VIA M8505 processor, which is ARM-based. How do I find out which debian image I should download? | 06:58 |
| Calinou | ikonia: nvidia-319 isn't available in official ubuntu repos | 06:58 |
| ikonia | Calinou: to work this through, (you'll hate this) I suggest a CLEAN 13.04 install, with no PPA's installed at all, no 3rd party | 06:58 |
| ikonia | Calinou: ahhhh and it's abinary kernel module | 06:58 |
| ikonia | Calinou: I think we see a nice suspect | 06:58 |

| ikonia | Calinou: I suggest a clean install with NO PPA's installed, run it with the vesa xorg driver and monitor it to see if you get the panics under load | 06:59 |
| ikonia | Calinou: are you having that bug / error ? | 06:59 |
| Taek | I would also like to add, if the issues continues try a something such as windows or perhaps debian. | 06:59 |
| Calinou | likely | 06:59 |
| Calinou | I see that snd_hda thingy | 07:00 |
| ikonia | Calinou: no, are you getting it, yes/no | 07:00 |
| Taek | To see if the High CPU issue continues | 07:00 |
| ikonia | Calinou: that's a sound card module unloading, that means nothing | 07:00 |
| Calinou | I am seeing it | 07:00 |
| ikonia | Calinou: sorry, you appear to be approaching this randomly rather than actually analysing your problem | 07:00 |
| ikonia | can't help while you just guess at things and try to link them to random bugs | 07:01 |
| ikonia | we've already shown with 12.10 it's not the kernel at this root cause, and you agreed, yet your linking to kernel bugs | 07:01 |
| ikonia | can't be bothered wasting more time on this, | 07:01 |
| Calinou | didn't have it at booting, just when CPU is at load | 07:02 |
| ikonia | Calinou: you still had a kernel panic, you've got to address one at a time | 07:03 |
| ikonia | rather than scatter gun | 07:03 |
| feever | mohawk, as long as they don't load spyware by default on the main distro, I think the Ubuntu team may be ok. As soon as someone sees some kind of spyware though, who knows. | 07:04 |
| feever | oh wait... | 07:04 |
| mohawk | Is there any reson to fear Ubuntu, is the Canonical dev team safe? what if they dont like us or get mad at us? thats kinda scary to think about.his ip address. i am stupid and have no defense for high technology attacks. | 07:06 |
| Calinou | neither nouveau nor vesa are solutions to me, too | 07:06 |
| ikonia | mohawk: you've already asked that | 07:06 |
| ikonia | mohawk: you've already been told "no reason to fear, use it. If you don't trust them, don't use it" | 07:06 |
| ikonia | Calinou: what do you mean "solutions" | 07:06 |
| aeon-ltd | mohawk: you crazy man, should you fear the electric companies? gas? ISPs? banks? | 07:06 |
| Calinou | drivers which provide what my card can provide | 07:06 |
| mohawk | feever: no I meant that my cousin is mentally ill and rants on irc with my computer and didnt want to make the dev team mad at my ip address because i have no way to deal with high technology | 07:07 |
| ikonia | Calinou: it is "trouble shooting", to find the problem | 07:07 |
| aeon-ltd | mohawk: then they will ban you and not care unless you forcibly removed the ban | 07:07 |

| Frank81 | Realy big trouble ! i cant use apt-get remove coz it fails | 07:10 |
| ikonia | Frank81: you'll need to explain clearer than that if you want help | 07:10 |
| ikonia | Frank81: the answer with the same ammount of detail is "fix it" | 07:10 |
| aeon-ltd | Frank81: post the exact message here if it fits on one line, if not pastebin | 07:10 |
| Frank81 | http://pastebin.de/35412 | 07:12 |
| Frank81 | since i am not sure what the exact fail is :d there are many | 07:13 |
| Frank81 | but it would be enought to get that out of the package management so that i can reinstall it | 07:13 |
| Taek | Frank81: are you using "sudo apt-get remove" ? | 07:13 |
| Frank81 | i did a fail and added a deb wezzy repo | 07:13 |
| Frank81 | ya i use sudo taek | 07:14 |
| Frank81 | but i can do a sudo su - | 07:14 |
| Frank81 | when you think it helps | 07:14 |
| Taek | Have you tried with "sudo apt-get purge package-name" | 07:14 |
| auronandace | Frank81: never mix debian repos with ubuntus, things will break badly | 07:14 |
| Taek | ^ | 07:15 |
| Frank81 | auronand good point | 07:15 |
| Frank81 | oh i am so tiered :( | 07:15 |
| Frank81 | why is it so hard to get a fast webserver running | 07:15 |
| aeon-ltd | Frank81: try nginx? | 07:16 |
| Frank81 | maybe i simply re install the whole server | 07:16 |
| Frank81 | aeon-ltd not fast enought and to bugy and to much changes | 07:16 |
| Alegreya | http://pclosmag.com/html/Issues/201307/page12.html | 07:16 |
| Frank81 | many reason for don't using nginx | 07:16 |
| Alegreya | Frank81 | 07:16 |
| Frank81 | nginx is a fake at all apache-mpm-event is the same with fast cgi | 07:17 |
| Alegreya | are you sniff my connection? | 07:17 |
| Frank81 | and is even faster with the right setting | 07:17 |
| Frank81 | Alegreya: good point but i am far behind that ^^ | 07:17 |
| Alegreya | python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8080 Serving HTTP on 0.0.0.0 port 8080 | 07:17 |
| Frank81 | i cant run such webservers with 5000 + hits per minut | 07:18 |
| Frank81 | Alegreya and php has a httpd in too | 07:18 |
| Frank81 | but realy thx for the nice trys | 07:18 |
| auronandace | Frank81: openbsd are in the process of replacing apache with nginx in their base system, if its good enough for openbsd then maybe your assessment of nginx needs to be re-evaluated | 07:18 |
| Frank81 | auronand nope they simply make it simply | 07:19 |

| Frank81 | but any how i messed some stuff up | 07:20 |
| aeon-ltd | Frank81: are you running mysql while trying to remove it? | 07:20 |
| Frank81 | maybe i need to reinstall whole server | 07:20 |
| Frank81 | aeon-ltd: good point stoped it now but still same fail | 07:21 |
| Frank81 | i repaired the repositorys so i now simply need to get it done to install the original packeges over the debian once | 07:21 |
| Sazpaimon | can anyone please confirm if the latest bcmwl drivers support the new 802.11ac cards? | 07:23 |

| ikonia | Equinox3: not helpful | 07:41 |

| ikonia | Taek: does that not list the version it's installing ? | 07:42 |

| Frank81 | ikonia used the package manager installed something | 07:43 |
| Taek | I just went to amd's website and downloaded and installed myself ikonia | 07:43 |
| Frank81 | now packagemanager should think its not installed | 07:43 |
| Frank81 | thats it | 07:43 |
| ikonia | Frank81: that's just foolish, if you used the package manager to install it, it will of course know it's installed (and should do, or it would be a bug) | 07:44 |
| Frank81 | args | 07:44 |
| Frank81 | i know what i am asking thx for trying | 07:44 |
| ikonia | Frank81: why don't you explain the problem, it may be clearer then | 07:44 |
| Taek | kidx do you know what your videocard is? | 07:44 |
| Frank81 | ikonia | 07:44 |
| devmedooo | how can i install ubuntu from iso ( internal harddesk ) | 07:44 |
| kidx | yes | 07:45 |
| Frank81 | i made a 100% clear question | 07:45 |
| kidx | HD5770 | 07:45 |
| Taek | desktop? | 07:45 |
| Frank81 | it is foolish to re discuse why i ask that | 07:45 |
| Frank81 | but thx | 07:45 |
| ikonia | Frank81: yes, and it's a foolish thing to request, to use the package manager to install software but not track that it's installed - that's the point of the package manager | 07:45 |
| devmedooo | how can i install ubuntu from iso ( internal harddisk ) | 07:45 |
| Frank81 | ikonia a package manager is software | 07:45 |
| Frank81 | software has fails | 07:45 |
| Frank81 | so i need to fix the fails | 07:45 |
| Taek | kidx it's a desktop right? | 07:45 |
| ikonia | Frank81: hang on, so you are saying it's installed something and it DOESN'T think it's installed | 07:46 |
| farbod | join #xbox | 07:46 |
| Frank81 | nope | 07:46 |
| wilee-nilee | devmedooo, Do you have a linux install with grub now? | 07:46 |
| Frank81 | that would be the goal | 07:46 |
| Frank81 | to fix the problem | 07:46 |
| ikonia | Frank81: that is not a bug | 07:46 |
| farbod | join /#xbox | 07:46 |
| ikonia | Frank81: that is how it's expected to work | 07:46 |
| kidx | yes | 07:46 |
| kidx | desktop | 07:46 |
| ikonia | Frank81: if you install software via the package manager, the package manager has to track it | 07:46 |
| Frank81 | ya | 07:46 |
| Frank81 | and now he installed wrong software | 07:46 |
| Frank81 | wrong depends and all that | 07:46 |
| Frank81 | and now that needs to get fixed | 07:47 |
| Taek | kidx -> http://is.gd/8wN0A1 | 07:47 |
| Frank81 | the way to fix that is install the right packages again | 07:47 |
| ikonia | Frank81: ok, so a package has the wrong depencies ? | 07:47 |
| Frank81 | over the existing once | 07:47 |
| ikonia | dependencies even | 07:47 |
| kidx | all i know is the aditional driver is not installing the upto date driver | 07:47 |
| Frank81 | THE SOLUTION is making itĀ“+ | 07:47 |
| Frank81 | sorry i can't talk about it | 07:47 |
| Frank81 | makes me too angry | 07:47 |
| ikonia | Frank81: you can't talk about it ??? | 07:47 |
| Taek | kidx the link for the latest of your card driver is at this link -> http://is.gd/8wN0A1 | 07:47 |

| ikonia | Frank81: is this on ubuntu or debian ? | 07:48 |
| Frank81 | ubuntu | 07:48 |
| ikonia | Frank81: then why are you asking in #debian ? | 07:48 |
| Frank81 | coz ubuntu is debian based and here is no one that knows what i whant | 07:48 |
| ikonia | Frank81: explain the problem, I'm sure it can be fixed, | 07:48 |
| devmedooo | wilee-nile : here?? | 07:48 |
| Frank81 | ikonia i am sure too | 07:49 |
| Frank81 | the problem is that i need to install the right package | 07:49 |
| ikonia | Frank81: what you want doesn't sound like a solution, but if you explain the problem, I'm sure it's not a problem to fix it | 07:49 |
| Frank81 | but there is a wrong | 07:49 |
| Frank81 | that can't be removed | 07:49 |
| devmedooo | wilee-nilee... | 07:49 |
| ikonia | Frank81: what's the software package ? | 07:49 |
| ikonia | Frank81: lets take a look | 07:49 |

| wilee-nilee | devmedooo, you need it on a dvd or a usb then | 07:49 |
| ikonia | !info mysql-server | 07:49 |
| ubottu | mysql-server (source: mysql-5.5): MySQL database server (metapackage depending on the latest version). In component main, is optional. Version 5.5.31-0ubuntu0.13.04.1 (raring), package size 11 kB, installed size 114 kB | 07:49 |

| Lanser | Hey guys, I am installing Ubuntu thru a LiveUSB, and I am using unetbootin, but it's stuck at 15%, at filesystem.squashfs? Is 'ufw' blocking something? | 07:51 |
| Frank81 | and the ways you try to ask makes me knowing that | 07:51 |
| ikonia | Frank81: what ???? I'm asking for the information to help you | 07:51 |
| Frank81 | but you can't | 07:51 |
| Lionthinker | hi everyone, can someone help me with Ubuntu One? I'm having problems | 07:51 |
| Frank81 | the right info would be a file path | 07:51 |
| kidx | now this is saying a previous driver was installed when i uninstalled it | 07:51 |
| ActionParsnip | Lanser: did you MD5 test the ISO you downloaded? | 07:51 |
| Frank81 | where he writes down the package infos | 07:51 |
| ikonia | Frank81: no-one can help you unless you give me the information | 07:52 |
| Frank81 | of the installed packages | 07:52 |
| Frank81 | nothing else | 07:52 |
| guest120280954 | what is the name of the ntfs scan disk tool with ntfsprogs. need to lift some pics with a live disc but puter wasnt shut down right | 07:52 |
| Lanser | ActionParsnip: How can I do that? | 07:52 |
| kidx | now i am stuck | 07:52 |
| ActionParsnip | !md5 | Lanser | 07:52 |
| ubottu | Lanser: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 07:52 |
| kidx | wish this would work | 07:52 |
| ActionParsnip | Lanser: how did you know that the file you used was consistent and complete? | 07:52 |
| tracekill | Huh. First time I've actually had Ubuntu not be able to find my wireless adapter (Intel). | 07:52 |
| devmedooo | i have a problem installing ubuntu i hope any supporter interseted help me........ | 07:52 |
| ActionParsnip | devmedooo: just ask | 07:52 |
| Frank81 | or a command to make it simply not manage the package anymore | 07:52 |
| ikonia | Frank81: just explain the problem | 07:52 |
| ikonia | Frank81: the package manager will NOT ignore a package | 07:53 |
| devmedooo | i tried install ubuntu 13.04 with the integrated wubi and i have error : " The request is not supported. " | 07:53 |
| Lanser | ActionParsnip: I torrented it. | 07:53 |
| ikonia | Frank81: so if you give us the info, I'm sure we can fix it | 07:53 |
| Frank81 | ikonia then re install is the way i need to go | 07:53 |
| Frank81 | but i think the package manger simply writes a file | 07:53 |
| kidx | i cant get the video drivers installed | 07:53 |
| Frank81 | thats it | 07:53 |
| ikonia | Frank81: so the package is mysql-server | 07:53 |
| Frank81 | but ok then i simply start my migration to aws | 07:53 |
| devmedooo | ActionParsnip:i tried install ubuntu 13.04 with the integrated wubi and i have error : " The request is not supported. " | 07:53 |
| ikonia | Frank81: you're running ubuntu 13.04, correct ? | 07:54 |
| Frank81 | and re install whole stack | 07:54 |
| Frank81 | ikonia ya i was running that | 07:54 |
| Lionthinker | anyone know things about Ubuntu sync function? | 07:54 |
| ikonia | Frank81: are you not running it now ? | 07:54 |
| ikonia | Frank81: what are you running now ? | 07:54 |
| Frank81 | but now i think for a other linux maybe | 07:54 |
| kidx | i tried to installl the latest driver but i cant get them to install | 07:54 |
| ikonia | Frank81: fine, ok, we can't help you, you don't want to give informaiton | 07:54 |
| Frank81 | ubuntu is good for desktop | 07:54 |
| ikonia | Frank81: please stop asking for help unless you are willing to give the information you are being asked for | 07:54 |
| ActionParsnip | Lanser: still worth checking, torents have good checking :). You could try updating the installer app in the live cd to see if it helps | 07:54 |
| Frank81 | ikonia no problem | 07:54 |
| devmedooo | hey , 2 supporters not answering me , plzz | 07:55 |
| dr_willis | i thought wubi was dropped in 13.04 | 07:55 |
| Frank81 | i am not going to ask anything about that anymore | 07:55 |
| Lanser | Frank81: Why are you being dramatic over support channels? | 07:55 |
| Equinox3 | devmedooo: whats the prob | 07:55 |
| Lanser | ikonia: He's trolling. | 07:55 |
| devmedooo | i tried install ubuntu 13.04 with the integrated wubi and i have error : " The request is not supported. " | 07:55 |
| === leonmarincowitz_ is now known as Lionthinker | ||
| kidx | can any one help me at all | 07:55 |
| Frank81 | Lanser coz i sayed the problem here | 07:55 |
| Frank81 | even made a pastbin | 07:55 |
| Equinox3 | from an iso? | 07:55 |
| Lanser | apply your question, kidx | 07:55 |
| ikonia | Lanser: let it go, he's been told not to ask for help unless he's willing to give info | 07:55 |
| wilee-nilee | !patience > devmedooo | 07:55 |
| ubottu | devmedooo, please see my private message | 07:55 |
| Equinox3 | did you extract that iso | 07:55 |
| ikonia | he wo'nt give info - so won't be allowed to discuss it | 07:55 |
| devmedooo | ok wilee-niee | 07:56 |
| devmedooo | nilee^ | 07:56 |
| kidx | I cant get the latest driver working i tried to do it manually but it tells me another driver is installed? | 07:56 |
| devmedooo | now wubi.exe is in iso file | 07:56 |
| wilee-nilee | devmedooo, Do you have to install a wubi, it is basically not supported and can be troublesome. | 07:56 |
| Equinox3 | right so you have to either the whole iso file to a folder | 07:56 |
| Equinox3 | or use something like unetbootin to mount iso to a flash drive | 07:57 |
| devmedooo | so , how can i reun ubuntu alongside ( without losing ) windows 7? | 07:57 |
| dr_willis | kidx: remove any other fglrx drivers from the repos first | 07:57 |
| devmedooo | run^ | 07:57 |
| kidx | how do i dothis | 07:57 |
| kidx | i am fairly new | 07:57 |
| kidx | welll to ubuntu | 07:57 |
| Equinox3 | devmedooo: get unetbootin, and a 8gb flash drive. use unetbootin to make a bootable iso | 07:57 |
| dr_willis | kidx with the addational-drivers tool | 07:57 |
| wilee-nilee | devmedooo, Make a dvd or usb with the ISO, use the windows disk manager to resize it leaving a unallocated space and install ubuntu there from the booted media | 07:58 |
| kidx | already did this | 07:58 |
| Taek | kidx open dash home and type additional | 07:58 |
| Equinox3 | then boot into ubuntu live, and start installation with side by side option | 07:58 |
| kidx | show none installed | 07:58 |
| devmedooo | how wilee-nilee?? | 07:58 |
| dr_willis | kidx: did you reboot? | 07:58 |
| kidx | yup | 07:58 |
| dr_willis | no idea then | 07:58 |
| Equinox3 | devmedooo: search for unetbootin | 07:58 |
| Taek | does it show any drivers in the additional drivers app kidx? | 07:59 |
| wilee-nilee | devmedooo, I just said how I'm not sure I can be more clear, you might look for more info to get orientated. | 07:59 |
| kidx | how do i look for that | 07:59 |
| devmedooo | Equinox3: My Flash Drive Is Bootable with win8 , so i can't add ubuntu.... , is there a way i boot ubuntu from iso file ? | 07:59 |
| Taek | open the additional drivers app | 07:59 |
| Taek | dash home -> Additional Drivers | 08:00 |
| kidx | all i see is three things there | 08:00 |
| Lionthinker | hi, I have a sync problem for Ubuntu one? | 08:00 |
| Equinox3 | devmedooo: you can't boot from an iso file | 08:00 |
| Taek | click on each one until the [Activate] button turns to deactivate, then click on the button | 08:00 |
| kidx | I tried to install the experimental and nothing its out dated casue steam asks for it to be updated | 08:00 |
| kidx | they are all deactivated | 08:01 |
| Equinox3 | you can create win8 bootable usb later, if you want to run ubuntu you'll have to format it and mount the iso on it | 08:01 |
| Lionthinker | ubuntu one, sync problem files don't correlate | 08:01 |
| day | whats exactly the difference between ac'97 and high definition audio? It looks like realtek provides both for the ALC889A | 08:01 |
| Taek | Not sure then kidx | 08:01 |
| kidx | ill try again | 08:01 |
| Equinox3 | devmedooo: or burn a cd with the iso | 08:01 |
| Taek | kidx: Unless you manually installed one prior | 08:01 |
| devmedooo | equinox3 : with any program? | 08:02 |
| Equinox3 | yes, like poweriso | 08:02 |
| kidx | ok is the driver on the site upto date | 08:02 |
| Taek | On the website, yes | 08:02 |
| kidx | the additional app is not working right drivers are out dated for me | 08:02 |
| kidx | ill reboot now and try again | 08:02 |
| Taek | Okay | 08:03 |
| wilee-nilee | Equinox3, ubuntu wont fit on a cd | 08:05 |
| Equinox3 | wilee-nilee: ah right. DVD :P | 08:06 |
| wilee-nilee | ;) | 08:06 |

| Taek | Lionthinker: I don't use Ubuntu One - I have my own system I use. | 08:11 |
| Equinox3 | should be | 08:11 |
| Taek | Which is not fully implemented yet. | 08:11 |
| ActionParsnip | Taek: if you are having issues in skype under ubuntu you can ask here | 08:12 |
| Lanser | Taek: what is wrong with skype? | 08:12 |
| Taek | Skype sucks. | 08:12 |
| ActionParsnip | Lanser: everything :) | 08:12 |
| dr_willis | other then the fact MS owns it now? | 08:12 |
| Lanser | ActionParsnip: oh you | 08:12 |
| Taek | Anyhow, any possible way to hide offline users? | 08:12 |
| Lanser | dr_willis: oh yes. | 08:12 |
| Taek | In the skype contact list that is. | 08:12 |
| Lanser | dr_willis: also, M$ has ganged up with NSA so I wouldn't recommend anyone to use Skype. | 08:12 |
| ActionParsnip | Taek: http://community.skype.com/t5/Linux/Hide-Offline-Contacts/td-p/67920 | 08:12 |
| Equinox3 | lol Taek, skype doesn't work on mine. some ia32-lib dependencies cannot be installed | 08:12 |

| Lanser | 32bit>64bt, Taek. | 08:13 |
| ActionParsnip | Taek: the 64bit releases are multiarch so it will install, just uses a lot of extra space | 08:13 |
| Equinox3 | why is that Lanser? | 08:13 |
| Lanser | Equinox3, I'll have Google explain that to you. | 08:13 |
| ikonia | Lanser: no don't | 08:13 |
| ActionParsnip | Taek: http://portal2portal.blogspot.co.uk/2010/10/skype-on-linux-hiding-off-line-contacts.html | 08:13 |
| ikonia | Lanser: you explain it | 08:13 |
| ActionParsnip | Taek: guess how I am findingall these links..... | 08:14 |
| Equinox3 | 32 bits cannot compile kernels as far as i remember | 08:14 |
| dr_willis | Equinox3: huh? | 08:14 |
| Equinox3 | not that i'm compiling. | 08:14 |
| Lanser | who cares, we have our own opinions. | 08:14 |
| ActionParsnip | Equinox3: what? | 08:14 |
| ikonia | Equinox3: it can compile 32bit software, sure | 08:14 |
| ikonia | Lanser: right - so please keep your random ones out | 08:15 |
| Lanser | oh alright, ikonia. | 08:15 |
| ActionParsnip | Equinox3: how do you think the devs make the ubuntu 32bit kernel for updates? | 08:15 |
| ikonia | Equinox3: why are you compiling kernels ? | 08:15 |
| ikonia | Equinox3: is there a problem with the one ubuntu provides for you ? | 08:15 |

| blazemore | Ahh OK | 08:56 |
| blazemore | You don't want to have to use the command line forever to copy files to your phone | 08:56 |
| newky_ | I just don't want it to be the only way I can copy files to my phone from here on out | 08:56 |
| blazemore | Yeah I get you :) | 08:56 |
| newky_ | exactly | 08:56 |
| newky_ | until now, I've just been booting into Win7 to copy things | 08:56 |
| blazemore | It might be worth using the command line to try copying the file first, to see if it works | 08:56 |
| newky_ | and I'm getting really tired of it | 08:56 |
| NeoKarna | newky_, try using nautilus as blazemore said right now. Because using nautilus didn't work for me. | 08:57 |
| blazemore | Understandable | 08:57 |
| dorud | newky_: the video file size? | 08:57 |
| newky_ | I've been using nautilus | 08:57 |
| newky_ | uh, let's see here, dorud | 08:57 |
| newky_ | 428 MBs. | 08:57 |
| newky_ | but it happens with smaller videos too | 08:57 |
| newky_ | last video was 184 MBs | 08:58 |
| dorud | this is not a large file | 08:58 |
| newky_ | indeed | 08:58 |
| newky_ | like I said, it copies over and then it hangs on the last megabyte or so | 08:58 |
| === racedo` is now known as racedo | ||
| newky_ | and the copying window just sits there | 08:58 |
| Recku | hello! | 08:58 |
| blazemore | newky_: It'd definitely be useful to try using the "cp" program from the command line. Do you know how to do that? | 08:59 |
| newky_ | yep | 08:59 |
| NeoKarna | newky_, please try copying using nautilus right now. See if that works. | 08:59 |
| dorud | please try cp, if it works, it's nautilus problem, if not, it's a system problem! | 08:59 |
| newky_ | hang on a minute | 08:59 |
| blazemore | OK well try it, and see what happens | 08:59 |
| newky_ | NeoKarna: I already used nautilus. The problem is happening when I use Nautilus. | 08:59 |
| blazemore | It's more a matter of, it probably will do the same thing, but might give an error | 08:59 |
| newky_ | right, troubleshooting | 09:00 |
| === cebor_ is now known as cebor | ||
| NeoKarna | newky_, I had the very same problem too ! I searched like hell on the internet but no results ! Try using cp as blazemore suggests | 09:00 |
| newky_ | okay, working on it | 09:01 |
| dorud | newky_: 1. test it by cp 2. run nautilus and copy it normally, view the terminal output | 09:01 |
| newky_ | I just noticed a new problem | 09:01 |
| === KacanuH_ is now known as KacanuH | ||
| newky_ | I was trying to copy a text file from my desktop to my phone, but it won't let me copy from my desktop at all | 09:01 |
| dorud | *2. run nautilus from terminal ... | 09:01 |
| === KacanuH is now known as Guest49242 | ||
| newky_ | well, nevermind, different problem | 09:01 |
| newky_ | okay yeah | 09:02 |
| Recku | Can I force override to usb modem's integrated memory so I can put inside | 09:02 |
| Recku | the ubuntu's driver package (the modem is MW-U3500 - WiMax) - to avoid moving additional flash drive with me every time I'm trying to use the modem on Ubuntu Machine | 09:02 |
| newky_ | this only seems to affect the larger movie files. The text file copied fine | 09:03 |
| newky_ | anyway, trying the cp command now | 09:03 |
| dorud | newky_: and also try running nautilus from terminal; report here | 09:04 |
| newky_ | dorud: gotcha | 09:04 |
| newky_ | cp command seems to be working | 09:05 |
| newky_ | it's still copying | 09:05 |
| newky_ | taking a while to copy, that's worrying | 09:05 |
| === TacitBlue is now known as Tacit_AFK | ||
| newky_ | nope, still hanging on the last MB. Same problem | 09:06 |
| Recku | newky, do you have write permissions | 09:07 |
| newky_ | correction | 09:07 |
| dorud | newky_: what is your phone? what is its system file? may you check the video permissions? | 09:07 |
| newky_ | it seems to have copied the whole file, but it will not play | 09:07 |
| newky_ | write permissions for what? | 09:07 |
| Recku | for phone device | 09:07 |
| newky_ | I have a Droid Razr | 09:07 |
| dorud | both for phon and the file | 09:07 |
| newky_ | file system is FAT | 09:07 |
| newky_ | I'm guessing FAT32? | 09:08 |
| dorud | the video file permission? | 09:08 |
| newky_ | wouldn't that throw some kind of "nope, wrong permissions" error? | 09:08 |
| newky_ | read and write for me | 09:09 |
| NeoKarna | newky_, yeah ! | 09:09 |
| newky_ | but it says read only for the "group permissions". I'm a noob with permissions. | 09:09 |
| Recku | group doesn't matters when your user have full permissions | 09:09 |
| Recku | I suppose it has | 09:09 |
| newky_ | okay | 09:10 |
| newky_ | I have a feeling it's not a permission error. I just feel like it'd give an error before it even copied the file | 09:10 |
| dorud | be sure it's not excutable. | 09:10 |
| newky_ | by the way, cp sort of worked, but it hung too. It seems to have copied the whole file, judging by the file size, but the file I copied to my phone is unreadable | 09:11 |
| Recku | can you try to make an empty file in the phone | 09:11 |
| newky_ | unplayable rather | 09:11 |
| newky_ | I copied a text file to it earlier. This is only happening with the video files | 09:11 |
| Recku | try with 'touch test.txt' | 09:11 |
| snuggl | isnt it just the usb write-ahead that takes a while to write all bytes? | 09:11 |
| newky_ | it worked | 09:12 |
| snuggl | how long did you wait? | 09:12 |
| newky_ | I can create files on the drive | 09:12 |
| newky_ | In the past when I've had this problem, I have waited hours and hours and it didn't finish. It should only take a few seconds to copy a file of this size. | 09:12 |
| Recku | what's the size of the video file | 09:12 |
| dorud | newky_: for the current time, zip the video and copy it on your droid phone, extract it. | 09:12 |
| === iPhone is now known as Guest39834 | ||
| snuggl | newky_: add the sync option to fstab can solve it | 09:12 |
| newky_ | Recku: 428 MB | 09:13 |
| snuggl | newky_: then it will behave like windows, including the corruption on fail =) | 09:13 |
| newky_ | dorud: I will try that | 09:13 |
| Recku | do you have smaller file to check if it works | 09:13 |
| newky_ | snuggl: why would I want that? :P | 09:13 |
| snuggl | newky_: windows is set to write in real time, so the copy process is in sync with what you see in your UI | 09:14 |
| fishcooker | i have ubuntu 10.04 netbook version | 09:14 |
| snuggl | then you will see the actual end time of the copy, not just when the OS has queued the writes. | 09:14 |
| Recku | snuggl is right | 09:15 |
| NeoKarna | newky_, please post your question in askubuntu too. This is a common problem. Ubuntu is not so good with phones I guess. | 09:15 |
| dorud | newky_: I think it's a mounting problem! may mount it manually somewhere else?! | 09:15 |
| fishcooker | how to strip down the size .. because i want to modify the from gui to commandline only | 09:15 |
| dorud | *may you | 09:15 |
| snuggl | fishcooker: use apt-get to remove the packages you dont want | 09:15 |
| newky_ | hm, Perhaps I should just take the SD card out of my phone and put it into my machines card reader... | 09:15 |
| snuggl | or the software GUI thingie | 09:15 |
| fishcooker | esp the gui one snuggl | 09:16 |
| NeoKarna | newky_, I used a different phone to do the job but that didn't work for me. Hope it works for you ! | 09:16 |
| fishcooker | any pointer? | 09:16 |
| snuggl | fishcooker: any pointer for what? | 09:16 |
| snuggl | fishcooker: just remove the ones you dont want | 09:16 |
| fishcooker | the package? | 09:16 |
| newky_ | also, I zipped the file and tried to copy it. Same problem, except it's hanging much earlier. at 386 MBs ouot of 427 | 09:16 |
| snuggl | fishcooker: remove _all_ packages you dont want | 09:17 |
| fishcooker | TT | 09:17 |
| snuggl | fishcooker: all the graphical ones | 09:17 |
| Recku | newky, how do you mount the phone | 09:17 |
| snuggl | fishcooker: start with X and see what goes with it | 09:17 |
| fishcooker | that's it snuggl | 09:17 |
| newky_ | whoa. Seems to have resolved. I think that might have worked | 09:17 |
| newky_ | still no reason it shoudl take tha tlong | 09:17 |
| fishcooker | i just want to make sure it will be safe snuggl and fast | 09:18 |
| snuggl | newky_: check dmesg for errors | 09:18 |
| snuggl | that slow might be the USB controller dropping to 1.0 | 09:18 |
| newky_ | Recku: I just plug the phone into my computer with a cable and let it automount | 09:18 |
| snuggl | just type "dmesg" in a console | 09:18 |
| snuggl | and look for suspicious USB things | 09:18 |
| newky_ | snuggl: no, it's not. It copies the rest of the file at normal speed and then it hangs at a certain point close to the end. | 09:18 |
| Recku | MTP doesn't allow to write just as that easily | 09:18 |
| Recku | your phone is with android right? | 09:19 |
| snuggl | newky_: thats no reason not to check the error log | 09:19 |
| newky_ | Droid Razr | 09:19 |
| newky_ | Recku: yes | 09:19 |
| superman | is there software that allows you to copy contacts from your android phone? | 09:19 |
| newky_ | snuggl: I was saying that at your suggestion that it might be dropping to USB 1 | 09:19 |
| Recku | so you have to use google's development of MTP client just wait for a while to find it out | 09:20 |
| newky_ | ah, what does that mean? | 09:20 |
| dr_willis | you can export your contacts to a file on android. | 09:20 |
| xmetal | hmm | 09:21 |
| nono | how can i search expressions like {P} on google? or other searche engines? | 09:21 |
| dr_willis | i use airdroid on my android phones. faster for me than a usb csble | 09:21 |
| Recku | newky, try gMTP it works with earlier versions of android as I don't know which is used in your situations | 09:22 |
| Recku | *situation | 09:22 |
| newky_ | I have android 4.1 on my phone | 09:22 |
| newky_ | what exactly is gMTP and how do I use it? | 09:23 |
| dr_willis | !mtp | 09:23 |
| newky_ | also, I tried to copy the file using nautilus running in root and it has the same problem | 09:23 |
| dr_willis | newer android phones show up as mtp devices. | 09:23 |
| superman | is the min specs for Ubuntu 1GHz and 1GB of RAM? | 09:23 |
| dr_willis | mtp support is still a bit of a work in progress for linux | 09:24 |
| newky_ | ah, okay | 09:24 |
| newky_ | out of curiosity and scholarly interest, what exactly is MTP? | 09:24 |
| dr_willis | easiest way to get files to/from your android device is to install airdroid on the android device and use the wireless networking and your local network router. | 09:24 |
| Hejkki_ | media transfer protocol | 09:24 |
| dr_willis | somthing transport protacal | 09:24 |
| dr_willis | ;) | 09:24 |
| newky_ | mobile? | 09:25 |
| Recku | gMTP is a client for transferring file between your PC and Phone's, tablet's or whatsoever MTP device | 09:25 |
| dr_willis | look itup on wikipedia perhaps? | 09:25 |
| newky_ | Must be somewhere on the USB stack. | 09:25 |
| dr_willis | ;) | 09:25 |
| superman | in the past Linux users use to call Windows XP bloated even though it could run on a Pentium 2 lol | 09:25 |
| === tvoss_ is now known as tvoss|benchmark_ | ||
| newky_ | Ah, I remember the days when XP was bloated. It's a fairly lightweight system on todays computers! | 09:26 |
| newky_ | anyway, I'll try that | 09:26 |
| newky_ | if that doesn't work, then I guess I'll just take the SD card out and put it in my PC. | 09:26 |
| dr_willis | XP is still bloated. | 09:26 |
| dr_willis | newky_: or try airdroid like i suggested | 09:27 |
| dr_willis | USB cable transfers seem to suck whenever i try them | 09:27 |
| newky_ | I'll look into it. Thanks for the idea. | 09:27 |
| newky_ | anywho. Thanks for your help everyone | 09:27 |
| Recku | dr_willis there is a google's project for easier transfer to mtp based memory | 09:28 |
| === Red-Sox[away] is now known as Red-Sox | ||
| dr_willis | Recku: i havent even been trying to use mtp since ive started using airdroid. ;) | 09:28 |
| Recku | and all you have to do with their client is to mount the device and then just use nautilus but i forgot the name | 09:28 |
| dr_willis | theres scripts out to mount mtp devices and so forth.. but i dont bother with them any moar. | 09:29 |
| Recku | ok here it is | 09:30 |
| Recku | Go-mtpfs | 09:30 |
| newky_ | what's that? | 09:30 |
| dr_willis | a gui tool for mounting mtp devices | 09:30 |
| Recku | newky, look up here http://www.webupd8.org/2012/12/how-to-mount-android-40-ubuntu-go-mtpfs.html | 09:31 |
| newky_ | thank you | 09:31 |
| dr_willis | that guide is a little out of date. so may not be 100% accurate for the newer releases | 09:31 |
| Hejkki_ | internet is out of date | 09:32 |
| Hejkki_ | most of the information there | 09:32 |
| dr_willis | or if you got a wireless router your phone and pc both connect to, theres dozens of ways to transfer stuff over wireless | 09:32 |
| Lanser | Life is like a box of......rm -rf / commands. | 09:33 |
| jpds | Lanser: No. | 09:33 |
| dr_willis | that command dosent really work any more (as written) these days. ;P | 09:33 |
| Recku | ok guys I've question now :D | 09:34 |
| Recku | Is there a way to force writing over write protected internal memory (it's about usb modem) | 09:34 |
| dr_willis | a USB 3g modem? | 09:34 |
| Recku | 4g modem but yes simmilar | 09:34 |
| Recku | the model is mw-u3500 | 09:35 |
| dr_willis | if its physically write protected. i would doubt it | 09:35 |
| Recku | All I want is to insert linux driver package | 09:35 |
| dr_willis | it could also be presenting the storage as a cdrom device | 09:35 |
| Recku | with root privileges doesn't work | 09:35 |
| Recku | yes that's how it presents it | 09:36 |
| dr_willis | the u3 usb fllash drives used that trick ages ago.. they were specially partioned. | 09:36 |
| Recku | one volume as Audio cd and other volume as USB storage | 09:37 |
| sanne | hi | 09:38 |
| Recku | so can I around that trick | 09:38 |
| bhalash | I hated those U3 pen drives with a passion. | 09:38 |
| dr_willis | i UN-U3'd many of them in the past | 09:38 |
| bhalash | I want to store data, not mess with hidden crapware. Aye, I did the same. Didn't stop people buying them though. :p | 09:38 |
| sanne | hello | 09:39 |
| sanne | hello | 09:39 |
| dr_willis | most people i knew dident even know what the u3 stuff was.. | 09:39 |
| bhalash | They started to figure out when the software autoran when they plugged it in. It was a good intro to Linux, actually. I showed them how to find and destroy the partition using fdisk and other tools. | 09:40 |
| Recku | dr_willis, how I can reformat the USB mass storage volume | 09:41 |
| dr_willis | Recku: no idea. it may destroy it if you try | 09:41 |
| dr_willis | Recku: see if fdisk can partion it... | 09:41 |
| dr_willis | if its physically write protected.. you may not even be able to fdisk it | 09:42 |
| bhalash | What does fdisk -l /dev/whatever say? | 09:42 |
| Recku | well I wouldn't lost anything the device will still works --- just without the windows driver :D | 09:42 |
| Recku | inside the memory | 09:42 |
| Recku | I've already tried with fdisk | 09:42 |
| dr_willis | Recku: you are assuming fdisk wont destroy it.. it might.. | 09:42 |
| bhalash | Recku | 09:42 |
| bhalash | Plug in the disk and do dmesg | grep Protect | 09:43 |
| dr_willis | if fdisk cant write to it. then i would say its got a physical switch on it. | 09:43 |
| bhalash | It will let you know if it is write protected | 09:43 |
| Recku | yes, bhalash | 09:43 |
| bhalash | You can use hdparm to /maybe/ turn it off | 09:44 |
| bhalash | hdparm -r0 /dev/whatever | 09:44 |
| Recku | hdparm or sdparm? | 09:44 |
| bhalash | sdparm or hdparm as appropriate :) | 09:45 |
| Recku | ok I'll check with that :) | 09:45 |

| bhalash | Aaruni, do you have a spare machine? Does the 64-bit machine keep locking? | 09:50 |
| Aaruni | bhalash: I have another Dell, with 32bit on it, and no spare partition | 09:51 |
| bhalash | It is a kernel-panic-oh-shit-reboot crash, or a silently-lock-up crash? | 09:51 |
| jatt | random hangs->hardware problems most of the time | 09:51 |
| Aaruni | bhalash: I think XORG crashes. because its working fine, and then suddenly, it stops working. I then need to pull the plug (or because its a laptop, long press the power key) | 09:51 |
| jatt | bad memory, overheating | 09:52 |
| bhalash | That sounds like a driver problem. Interesting way to fix it: SSH in from another machine and see if the locked up machine responds. | 09:52 |

| arun_ | somone help me | 10:12 |
| bhalash | arun_ More information please. | 10:12 |
| arun_ | my hard drive is not shown in terminals | 10:12 |
| arun_ | im using xbuntu | 10:13 |
| arun_ | i can access all my partitions | 10:13 |
| auronandace | arun_: what exactly are you doing to try to see your harddrives in the terminal? | 10:14 |
| bhalash | ^ | 10:14 |
| arun_ | i want to give permission to other users | 10:15 |
| arun_ | to access my partitions | 10:15 |
| auronandace | !fstab | arun_ | 10:16 |
| ubottu | arun_: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 10:16 |
| nibbler_ | arun: sudo fdisk -l | 10:16 |
| arun_ | what will it do? | 10:16 |
| bhalash | It will list your partitions | 10:16 |
| arun_ | i want give permission to a user | 10:17 |
| nibbler_ | blazemore: your solution to the df problem looks very good to me, i doubt there is anything better | 10:17 |
| nibbler_ | blazemore: maybe df --total is better :p | 10:18 |
| varunendra | arun_, permissions are set on the mount points. To see the mount points, use the command : mount | grep '/dev/sd' | 10:19 |
| vadrao | Hi all, I have two battery's. One built in and the other Slice battery. Ubuntu first drains the Slice battery which is ofcourse the default behavior. But after it drains the Slice battery, it says that battery has reached critical state and shutdowns the computer. It does not use the builtin battery. How can remedy this? | 10:20 |
| varunendra | arun_, it will show only those partitions that are mounted. If the desired partition is not mounted, you will need to mount it first (partitions included in fstab are automatically mounted at startup) | 10:20 |
| arun_ | i cannot identify which are mounted | 10:20 |
| arun_ | but i can access all of my drives | 10:21 |
| bhalash | cat /etc/mtab | 10:21 |
| varunendra | arun_, can you access the partitions (their contents) which you wish to grant permissions on? | 10:21 |
| varunendra | arun_, are you able to access them right now? | 10:21 |
| arun_ | yes | 10:22 |
| arun_ | varunendra, i wish to grant access to named new volume | 10:22 |
| varunendra | arun_, please give us the pastebin link to the output of : mount | grep '/dev/sd' | 10:23 |
| arun_ | http://paste.ubuntu.com/5890340/ | 10:23 |
| arun_ | i will give wait | 10:23 |

| varunendra | !fstab | arun_ then read the guide on fstab : | 10:28 |
| ubottu | arun_ then read the guide on fstab :: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 10:28 |
| joshu | hi if anyone is familiar with lightdm and ubuntu mini and has time to help me with this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2163132 please let me know ;) | 10:29 |
| varunendra | arun_, basically, you need to add entries for these mount points/partitions in the /etc/fstab file, with appropriate permissions/masks. The guide will show you in detail how to do that. | 10:30 |
| arun_ | thanks varun | 10:30 |
| arun_ | thanks ubottu | 10:31 |
| ActionParsnip | joshu: have you tried other DMs? | 10:31 |
| varunendra | no problem ! :) | 10:31 |
| joshu | ActionParsnip DMs? | 10:31 |
| ActionParsnip | joshu: instead of lightdm..... | 10:32 |
| ActionParsnip | joshu: gdm? xdm? slim? | 10:32 |
| blazemore | mdm \o/ | 10:32 |
| joshu | ActionParsnip I haven't tried no. I'm looking for help with the whole thing not just the DM whether it be lightdm or something else. | 10:33 |
| SDIS | not familiar soory | 10:34 |
| SDIS | sorry | 10:34 |
| blazemore | joshu: Keep lightdm installed, install a super lightweight WM like Openbox. Let network manager handle your multiple connections and VPN. | 10:35 |
| LucidDreamZzZz | haha someone saying linux is easier for noobs than ever | 10:35 |
| ActionParsnip | LucidDreamZzZz: it is, back in the day it was not so simple as it is now | 10:36 |
| ActionParsnip | LucidDreamZzZz: same with windows | 10:36 |
| LucidDreamZzZz | it just keeps getting more complex and bloaty | 10:36 |
| ActionParsnip | LucidDreamZzZz: bloat is nothing to do with ease of use | 10:36 |
| ActionParsnip | LucidDreamZzZz: is it? | 10:37 |
| blazemore | Ignore him ActionParsnip | 10:37 |
| ActionParsnip | blazemore: I have time :) | 10:37 |
| LucidDreamZzZz | 'back int he day' there was next step (macos x) running stabily on Redhat (free) | 10:37 |
| blazemore | You know why he's in here, I know why he's in here | 10:37 |
| LucidDreamZzZz | it was always easy | 10:37 |
| ActionParsnip | LucidDreamZzZz: for the average user, not so easy | 10:37 |
| ActionParsnip | LucidDreamZzZz: although, depends when your 'back in the day' is. I'm talking 2002/3 | 10:38 |
| LucidDreamZzZz | if redhat wasnt easy enough there was mandrake or debian | 10:38 |
| LucidDreamZzZz | just saying how many ways are there now to start x? | 10:38 |
| LucidDreamZzZz | lol | 10:38 |
| ActionParsnip | LucidDreamZzZz: ever had to compile a kernel to make your CD burner work? | 10:38 |
| ActionParsnip | LucidDreamZzZz: cos I have | 10:39 |
| LucidDreamZzZz | another point you make for me, i wouldnt spend time rolling my own kernel these days | 10:39 |
| ActionParsnip | LucidDreamZzZz: I'm sure thats super easy for teh guy on the street, right? | 10:39 |
| LucidDreamZzZz | its too damn complicated now | 10:39 |
| ActionParsnip | LucidDreamZzZz: you HAD to to make some hardware work | 10:39 |
| blazemore | LucidDreamZzZz: I've seen desktop Linux improve leaps and bounds over the last 10 years in terms of hardware compatibility, usability, and general out-of-the-box experience | 10:39 |
| LucidDreamZzZz | i used to build gento stage 1 box or roll my opwn, whatever | 10:40 |
| joshu | blazemore so starting with ubuntu mini is a good idea? | 10:40 |
| vadrao | Hi all, I have two battery's. One built in and the other Slice battery. Ubuntu first drains the Slice battery which is ofcourse the default behavior. But after it drains the Slice battery, it says that battery has reached critical state and shutdowns the computer. It does not use the builtin battery. How can remedy this? | 10:40 |
| LucidDreamZzZz | now gentoo doesnt even offer stage 1 and nobody rolls their own unless they absoolutely have to | 10:40 |
| blazemore | vadrao: One thing to do would be to stop Ubuntu from shutting down / hibernating your computer on low battery. You can do this in power options | 10:41 |
| LucidDreamZzZz | the only thing is yes hardware support is marginally better, nobody ever built without checking hardware compatibility list | 10:41 |
| ActionParsnip | LucidDreamZzZz: Gentoo stage1 instals arent supported now, or advised | 10:41 |
| LucidDreamZzZz | so thats a non-issue | 10:41 |
| ActionParsnip | LucidDreamZzZz: it was though, now its a whole tonne easier | 10:42 |
| ActionParsnip | LucidDreamZzZz: which you said is not the case and it was always easy. | 10:42 |
| ActionParsnip | LucidDreamZzZz: right> | 10:42 |
| blazemore | LucidDreamZzZz: Do you have an Ubuntu related support question? | 10:43 |
| LucidDreamZzZz | the other thing is there is a web browser that is stable, that was something that was lacking in Linux you almost had to use IE 4 to use the Internet | 10:43 |
| ActionParsnip | LucidDreamZzZz: you haven't answer my simple question | 10:43 |
| LucidDreamZzZz | and that is no lie | 10:43 |
| ActionParsnip | LucidDreamZzZz: or blazemore's | 10:43 |
| LucidDreamZzZz | yeah it hasnt gotten any simpler | 10:44 |
| LucidDreamZzZz | that question? | 10:44 |
| vadrao | blazemore: In that case it shows this red empty battery on the top right hand corner. Simple things like this should be seemless | 10:44 |
| ActionParsnip | LucidDreamZzZz: but it really has, 'normal' users can install and use Ubuntu with minimal issue, lots of hardware works out of the box. I have given you examples of how this is the case | 10:45 |
| blazemore | vadrao: It's not particularly simple; a dual battery configuration can't necessarily be expected to work out the box. What specific model of laptop is it? | 10:45 |
| === om26er is now known as om26er|away | ||
| LucidDreamZzZz | i mean really i still have to set up a xorg.conf???? | 10:45 |
| LucidDreamZzZz | ok whatever its easier now | 10:45 |
| LucidDreamZzZz | :) | 10:45 |
| ActionParsnip | LucidDreamZzZz: the kernel has come in leaps and bounds and companies are starting to make Linux drivers which were not around previously | 10:45 |
| blazemore | LucidDreamZzZz: I haven't touched my xorg.conf for 3 years | 10:46 |
| ActionParsnip | LucidDreamZzZz: then your screen is not reporting EDID as it should, or is reporting it wrong | 10:46 |
| vadrao | blazemore: Its the latest Sony Vaio Duo 11 ultrabook which is a Slider | 10:46 |
| LucidDreamZzZz | kernel is (very) monolithic | 10:46 |
| ActionParsnip | LucidDreamZzZz: the screen should reports its access and udev will setup the screen on the fly, if your doesn't then xorg.conf is needed | 10:46 |
| blazemore | vadrao: Do you have a model number? | 10:46 |
| blazemore | LucidDreamZzZz: You read that on the Internet somewhere and you are like "omg monolithic = bloat = A Bad Thing" | 10:47 |
| vadrao | Yes | 10:47 |
| ActionParsnip | LucidDreamZzZz: I need one myself as my res goes insanely tiny with a very high DPI, so I have to setup the screen | 10:47 |
| blazemore | LucidDreamZzZz: Do you know what it means for a kernel to be "monolithic"? It's not a derogatory term... | 10:47 |
| vadrao | blazemore: The model number is SVD1121C5EB | 10:47 |
| LucidDreamZzZz | sometimes i still need that file for monitor settings, xrandr having 3 totally different versions doesnt help much as i have no clue how to use them anymore as it melted my brain | 10:47 |
| k1l | LucidDreamZzZz: do you have an actual technical ubuntu issue? this is not the channel for general chatter (or ranting) | 10:47 |
| LucidDreamZzZz | ik i was probably using monolithic duall meaning other menaing is large?? | 10:48 |
| LucidDreamZzZz | that could be wrong checking websters | 10:48 |
| Gilligan94_ | how can i get wine 1.6? | 10:49 |
| LucidDreamZzZz | no not really i am just glad Ubuntu has steam and updated drivers, thank you! | 10:49 |
| ActionParsnip | LucidDreamZzZz: again, its your screen | 10:49 |
| ikonia | Gilligan94_: it's not in the stable ubuntu repos, you'd need to use a 3rd party repo - but use it at your own risk | 10:49 |
| blazemore | vadrao: I believe it's not currently supported: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-power/+bug/880881 | 10:49 |

| ActionParsnip | Gilligan94_: try the wine ppa | 10:49 |
| blazemore | vadrao: But as a workaround, you can stop it from shutting itsself down | 10:49 |
| blazemore | vadrao: You might just have to live with the incorrect battery indicator :\ | 10:49 |
| Gilligan94_ | ActionParsnip: I have the wine ppa installed but for some reason it just installs 1.4.1 | 10:49 |
| blazemore | Gilligan94_: Is Wine 1.6 in the repository yet? | 10:50 |
| Gilligan94_ | blazemore: not sure | 10:50 |
| === amin_007110 is now known as amin007110 | ||

| joshu | I'm willing to pay for help if someone is interested in helping me with my custom ubuntu setup | 10:52 |
| ActionParsnip | Gilligan94_: then why are you asking here | 10:52 |
| k1l | Gilligan94_: then talk to the elementary support how to get wine 1.6 | 10:52 |
| ikonia | joshu: don't need to pay, just ask and if people can help they will | 10:52 |
| LucidDreamZzZz | yes according to websters monolithic means HUGE or MASSIVE | 10:52 |
| Aaruni | joshu: lol ? I'll help you for free, if I can | 10:52 |

| greyhatpython | hey guys i installed a game called Stunt Rally from Playdeb.net now i want to uninstall it since my onboard intel graphic Card is not supporting it. How to uninstall it? | 10:53 |
| Aaruni | bhalash: doing that now | 10:53 |
| ActionParsnip | greyhatpython: use software centre | 10:53 |
| blazemore | greyhatpython: Open the Ubuntu Software Centre, search for Stunt Rally | 10:53 |
| greyhatpython | The Software Center is showing not found for that name. | 10:53 |
| k1l | joshu: provide some details. no need for paying in here | 10:53 |
| ActionParsnip | greyhatpython: playdeb is just another repo and installing from it and uninstalling apps from it is no different to the apps from the official repos | 10:53 |
| ikonia | probably because you installed it with dpkg -i | 10:53 |
| joshu | ikonia Aaruni hi guys instead of putting everything here I posted on ubuntuforums http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2163132 | 10:53 |
| greyhatpython | Yes but the ubuntu software center is not showing it | 10:54 |
| bugtraq | good | 10:54 |
| blazemore | greyhatpython: How did you install it? | 10:54 |
| greyhatpython | I am sure it's in my system i don't know where to locate and how to uninstall | 10:54 |
| blazemore | greyhatpython: How you uninstall it depends completely on how you installed it | 10:54 |
| greyhatpython | I installed via ubuntu software center from the apt link i got from playdeb.net | 10:54 |
| ActionParsnip | greyhatpython: if you run: dpkg -l | egrep -i 'stunt|rally' you will see the package name | 10:55 |
| ikonia | joshu: you can do that with a standard ubuntu install and a startup script | 10:55 |
| blazemore | Did you download a .deb file? | 10:55 |
| blazemore | greyhatpython: ^ | 10:55 |
| hamed | I have question about mpich2! | 10:55 |
| blazemore | joshu: Your setup isn't nearly as complicated as you think it is. Network Manager handles your network config for you, and then you can just run an rdp client on startup after a short delay | 10:56 |
| greyhatpython | Ok i got this output : ii stuntrally 2.0-1~getdeb2~quantal i386 Rally game with stunt elements | 10:56 |

| ikonia | joshu: looks pretty ill thought out though | 10:56 |
| blazemore | !ask | hamed what is your question? | 10:56 |
| ubottu | hamed what is your question?: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience | 10:56 |
| ActionParsnip | greyhatpython: sudo apt-get --purge remove stuntrally stuntrally-data stuntrally-tracks | 10:56 |
| Aaruni | joshu: sorry, I can't help you there.. | 10:56 |
| joshu | Aaruni no worries thanks ;) | 10:57 |
| greyhatpython | ok i will try but explain me the command how you got it? | 10:57 |
| hamed | I install mpich2 and mpich3 on my system. I have error symbol missing after run the my mpi program | 10:58 |
| greyhatpython | ok i got it it's the package name you said to remove | 10:58 |
| joshu | ikonia how's it "ill thought out"? what would you do? | 10:58 |
| ActionParsnip | greyhatpython: read your own output, then read the commadn I gave | 10:58 |
| ikonia | joshu: bottom line, you can do what you want with a standard ubuntu install and some login / startup scripts | 10:59 |
| greyhatpython | understood!!!! | 10:59 |
| greyhatpython | Thanks a lot ActionParsnip | 10:59 |
| ActionParsnip | greyhatpython: np man | 10:59 |
| hamed | I think installing mpich2 and mpich3 same time is problem and I want to remove them completely; but I can't!! | 11:01 |
| Aaruni | hamed: sudo apt-get purge ? | 11:01 |
| joshu | ikonia I understand but in terms of keeping the system minimal as the OS itself will just be a thin client then using a standard install is too much, no? | 11:02 |
| hamed | I didn't get it: sudo apt-get purge ? Please explain more!? | 11:03 |
| Aaruni | hamed: sudo apt-get purge <package_name> | 11:04 |
| Aaruni | removes packages, and their configuration files | 11:04 |
| hamed | I make them from source code | 11:04 |
| Aaruni | oh, then I don't know | 11:04 |
| jpds | hamed: Right, then the package manager isn't going to help and you'll have to do it by hand. | 11:05 |
| hamed | But How? where is the paths of mpich* ? Because there are many *mpi* file in my /usr dir. | 11:06 |
| jpds | hamed: That's something we can't help with. | 11:07 |

| joshu | ikonia I think I understand what a thin client is as I've worked with wyse thin clients. But creating a solution myself is what I'm trying to do and although I understand that I can just do a standard install of ubuntu on a laptop and create some scripts, it's not exactly what I want. | 11:18 |
| ikonia | joshu: yes, and a wyse system is nothing like what you are suggesting | 11:19 |
| ikonia | joshu: have you looked at something like lubuntu ? | 11:19 |
| ActionParsnip | or xpud | 11:20 |
| ikonia | joshu: haveyou looked at ltsp ? | 11:20 |
| ActionParsnip | or puppy | 11:20 |
| ikonia | puppy ? | 11:20 |
| ikonia | what has that got to do with it ? | 11:20 |
| joshu | ikonia a wyse system with WTOS allows remote updating, shadowing, configuration, automatic vpn, all but using usb modems | 11:21 |
| ikonia | joshu: I think ltsp would probably tick at least %70 of your needs out of the box | 11:21 |
| joshu | ikonia i have looked at ltsp, but that's quite different if I understand it connects to an ubuntu server. I chatted with some people on the #ltsp channel and they suggested ubuntu mini + lightdm that's why I've mentioned it in my post. | 11:22 |
| ActionParsnip | ikonia: its a good OS for thin clients | 11:22 |
| ikonia | ActionParsnip: it's terrible | 11:22 |
| ikonia | ActionParsnip: it's old and dated | 11:22 |
| ikonia | it's totally unmaintained apart from crazy unsupportable stuff like "slacko" | 11:23 |
| ikonia | joshu: you're starting to get into building your own custom spin/distro at that point | 11:23 |
| ActionParsnip | ikonia: http://puppylinux.org/main/Download%20Latest%20Release.htm march 2013, only 1 month younger than Raring | 11:23 |
| Johnny_Linux | huh, slacko worked prety good for me, on a eeepc | 11:23 |
| ikonia | ActionParsnip: and look at what is is "slacko" | 11:23 |
| ikonia | ActionParsnip: it's just taking software from slackware | 11:23 |
| ActionParsnip | ikonia: its still puppy linux though | 11:24 |
| ikonia | ActionParsnip: it's really not | 11:24 |
| ikonia | there has not been a native puppy build for a long long time | 11:24 |
| ActionParsnip | ikonia: how so, its on the official puppy linux and toued as the 'latest release', how is it not puppy? | 11:24 |
| ikonia | because puppy is dead and they just re-spin other peoples software in an unstable mess now | 11:24 |
| ActionParsnip | ikonia: then why is the puppy site showing it as new, its right there on the page | 11:25 |
| ikonia | ActionParsnip: because it is new | 11:25 |
| entertainer0815 | thx ActionParsnip <3 | 11:25 |
| ActionParsnip | ikonia: you said it was old though... | 11:25 |
| ikonia | ActionParsnip: and this is what people in puppy do now, | 11:25 |
| ActionParsnip | entertainer0815: all good? | 11:25 |
| ikonia | ActionParsnip: yes, the last proper puppy standalone OS is old | 11:25 |
| entertainer0815 | yeah ActionParsnip | 11:25 |
| BluesKaj | Hey all | 11:25 |
| joshu | ikonia ok and you wouldn't suggest that for this project? | 11:25 |
| ActionParsnip | entertainer0815: yay | 11:25 |
| entertainer0815 | sometimes is "turn it off and on again" better :D | 11:26 |
| ikonia | joshu: the building of a custom distro you mean ? | 11:26 |
| ActionParsnip | entertainer0815: no doubt | 11:26 |
| ActionParsnip | ikonia: it doesnt make any sense | 11:26 |
| ikonia | ActionParsnip: it really does | 11:26 |
| entertainer0815 | thx and bye :) | 11:26 |
| joshu | ikonia yes if that's what it would mean starting with ubuntu mini? | 11:26 |
| ikonia | joshu: it really depends if you want to build, maintain and support your own ubuntu spin | 11:26 |
| ActionParsnip | ikonia: you say puppy is dead but the puppy site shows a release in March, not old | 11:26 |
| ikonia | joshu: it's not a bad idea, you just need to be aware of what you are getting into | 11:27 |
| ActionParsnip | ikonia: doesnt matter what its based on, its still puppy | 11:27 |
| ikonia | ActionParsnip: please look at what puppy releases are now, they are just spins of other distros using the "woof" tool, they are an unstable mess and there is nothing really "puppy" in it any more. The last proper puppy build is old, hence why it's old | 11:27 |
| ActionParsnip | ikonia: i wouldnt say so, but lets move on | 11:28 |

| === Lebby1 is now known as Lebby | ||
| yalex | hello is there a way to get thunderbird and firefox to show network shares in Ubuntu 13.04? | 11:30 |
| greyhatpython | <alioth> use Gparted application and make sure to backup data before resizing partition | 11:31 |
| joshu | ikonia I think if I had some help then I wouldn't mind going the ubuntu mini route. | 11:31 |
| alioth | I have problem with gparted, I wanna use fdisk | 11:32 |
| greyhatpython | alioth what happened with gparted | 11:32 |
| ikonia | joshu: there a lots of system intergrator IT businesses that will build and maintain this sort of thing for you | 11:32 |
| ikonia | joshu: I think asking people to build this for your commercial needs for free is a bit tall to ask | 11:33 |
| alioth | I wanna resize my extended partition, but I see a warning with that in gparted | 11:33 |
| greyhatpython | alioth what is the warning you are getting? | 11:33 |
| joshu | ikonia absolutely I understand. That's why I mentioned that I was willing to pay for guidance. | 11:34 |
| alioth | Logical Volume Management is not yet supported. | 11:34 |
| ActionParsnip | fugutive221_: tried Fn + F9? | 11:35 |
| darkowlzz | how do I upgrade vala in ubuntu 12.04? doing `apt-get upgrade` says it's already the newest version | 11:36 |
| fugutive221_ | ActionParsnip: I haven't tryed that yet > I will do that just in a moment > what does it do?\ | 11:36 |
| ActionParsnip | fugutive221_: its the shortcut to enable/disable the touchpad.... | 11:36 |
| greyhatpython | alioth try opening the gparted app as sudo gparted from the terminal | 11:36 |
| alioth | ok | 11:36 |
| Pricey | darkowlzz: Although packages are provided by ubuntu, they are promised to be stable. This means that it might not always be the latest version from the upstream project. | 11:36 |
| greyhatpython | alioth you need to run the app in root privileges. | 11:37 |
| ikonia | joshu: check out some of the comerical linux providers | 11:37 |
| fugutive221_ | ActionParsnip: I doesn't change anything to the situation ( it changes the volume) For me the enabling/disabling of the touchpad is fn + F5 but that doesn't work to | 11:38 |
| alioth | I got the error again greyhatpython | 11:38 |
| darkowlzz | Pricey, thanks, I have vala 0.14 installed, but I need atleast 0.17.4. | 11:38 |
| xormor | why don't I hear any sound from my xubuntu 13.04 raring ringtail system? | 11:38 |
| xormor | Linux laptoppi-HP-G62-Notebook-PC 3.8.0-26-generic #38-Ubuntu SMP Mon Jun 17 21:46:08 UTC 2013 i686 athlon i686 GNU/Linux | 11:38 |
| xormor | I don't hear the sound from YouTube, and not from Facebook's YouTube connection either. | 11:38 |
| greyhatpython | alioth is it possible to unmount the extended partition and then try to resize? | 11:38 |
| xormor | I had the same problem earlier. I think I restarted something and it worked again. | 11:38 |
| alioth | no the option is unactive | 11:39 |
| fugutive221_ | xormor: What if you put the volume about to 50%? | 11:39 |
| Pricey | !info vala | 11:39 |
| ubottu | Package vala does not exist in raring | 11:39 |
| alioth | there is a warning icon near logical partition | 11:39 |
| ActionParsnip | fugutive221_: try: sudo modprobe -r psmouse; sleep 4; sudo modprobe psmouse | 11:39 |
| Pricey | !info valac | 11:39 |
| ubottu | valac (source: vala-0.18): C# like language for the GObject system. In component main, is optional. Version 0.18.1-0ubuntu4 (raring), package size 13 kB, installed size 149 kB | 11:39 |
| xormor | fugutive221_: I will try. | 11:39 |
| Pricey | darkowlzz: What version of ubuntu? raring seems to have 0.18? | 11:40 |
| darkowlzz | 12.04 | 11:40 |
| fugutive221_ | ActionParsnip: I will try that | 11:40 |
| greyhatpython | alioth the easiest way is to use a live cd of ubuntu on usb key then install gparted and resize! | 11:40 |
| alioth | I'm using live cd now! | 11:40 |
| joshu | ikonia alternatively your suggestion is standard ubuntu with scripts, yes? | 11:41 |
| alioth | greyhat , actually in information box the status of partition is not mounted!! | 11:41 |
| xormor | fugutive221_: I got it to work. I went to settings and made the Analog Sound output to less than 100%. | 11:41 |
| xormor | fugutive221_: in the Sound Settings. | 11:41 |
| alioth | but resize/move option is unactive also!! | 11:42 |
| ikonia | joshu: something light like lubuntu I think would tick your boxes out the box, and with a little set of login scripts would do exactly what you want | 11:42 |
| darkowlzz | Pricey, I am on Ubuntu 12.04. Do I have to add raring's source list ? | 11:42 |
| fugutive221_ | xormor: I have had a similar problem like you had | 11:42 |
| tozen | alioth: r u using livecd? | 11:42 |
| greyhatpython | alioth the extended partition is just a swap partition or you have any data? | 11:42 |
| alioth | tozen yep | 11:42 |
| ActionParsnip | darkowlzz: no, if you want to upgrade you will need to upgrade to Quantal first, then to Raring | 11:43 |
| ActionParsnip | darkowlzz: just so you now, Raring is only supported til January 2014 wheras Precise is supported til April 2017 | 11:43 |
| tozen | alioth: show the screenshot of gparted, please | 11:43 |
| alioth | greyhat it's Linux LVM partition | 11:44 |
| alioth | tozen just a min | 11:44 |
| fugutive221_ | ActionParsnip: Is it the meaning that I reboot the system? | 11:44 |
| shaju | d6 | 11:44 |
| joshu | ikonia ok sounds interesting. what about "freezing" lubuntu similar to how wyse thin clients are updated with a new image. and being about to change the few configuration settings remotelyā¦is that doable or we're back in custom land? | 11:44 |
| ActionParsnip | fugutive221_: no need, is it working | 11:45 |
| shaju | what will be in ubuntu 14.00 | 11:45 |
| fugutive221_ | ActionParsnip: doesn't work | 11:45 |
| Pricey | darkowlzz: No, that could go very badly. | 11:45 |
| Pricey | darkowlzz: You've got a few choices, have you considered upgrading to raring? | 11:46 |
| alioth | tozen I sent | 11:46 |
| ActionParsnip | fugutive221_: are there any bugs reported? | 11:46 |
| darkowlzz | Pricey, my internet connection won't support that atm | 11:46 |
| tozen | alioth: where? | 11:46 |
| MonkeyDust | shaju 14.04 will be the next lts, first wait for 13.10 to come out | 11:46 |
| alioth | tozen pm | 11:47 |
| darkowlzz | Pricey, ActionParsnip no other way? | 11:47 |
| greyhatpython | alioth you want to use the entire lvm partition or shrink it? | 11:47 |
| Pricey | darkowlzz: The other options include rebuilding a raring package for precise... or just installing the precise package... this could go horribly wrong. | 11:47 |
| === eric is now known as Guest11353 | ||
| xormor | fugutive221_: I think my system had made HDMI the only sound output, I had to "wake up" the analog stereo system. | 11:48 |
| ActionParsnip | darkowlzz: you could reinstall a clean install of Raring | 11:48 |
| shaju | MonkeyDust ok | 11:48 |
| fugutive221_ | ActionParsnip: On my computer: No. I'm looking on the internet for those | 11:48 |
| alioth | greyhatpython I wanna decrease size of it and create a new logical partition, because I have no free space for new one | 11:48 |
| tozen | alioth: send the link here, please | 11:49 |
| ActionParsnip | fugutive221_: I suggest you report a bug | 11:49 |
| darkowlzz | ActionParsnip, but that would require downloading Raring first. | 11:50 |
| darkowlzz | ActionParsnip, Pricey can't I build valac from source? | 11:50 |
| darkowlzz | how about ^ ? | 11:50 |

| alioth | tozen http://s3.picofile.com/file/7852892040/Screenshot_1.png | 11:53 |
| Pricey | darkowlzz: Make sure you don't install it over the top of Ubuntu's version, that could get messy. Use /opt or /usr/local or osmething similar. | 11:54 |
| shaju | <ActionParsnip> AMD | 11:54 |
| ActionParsnip | shaju: which AMD GPU do you have? | 11:54 |
| ActionParsnip | shaju: sudo lshw -C display will tell you | 11:54 |

| emper0r | psilo: got error using /etc/resolv.conf | 13:29 |
| Casey | anonee: nevermind, I found it | 13:30 |
| Casey | thanks | 13:30 |
| anonee | Casey you wanna recover the whole folder right? | 13:30 |
| Casey | anonee: correct | 13:30 |
| ActionParsnip | Casey: if it is a backup, just rerun a full backup to recreate the data | 13:31 |
| * riex having sweaty balls today | 13:31 | |
| Casey | ActionParsnip: I am very new to linux so my skills on here are limited | 13:32 |
| ActionParsnip | emper0r: just add the lines you want in /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/head | 13:32 |
| ActionParsnip | Casey: but you said it was only the backup drive, surely the live data stands, right? | 13:32 |
| Casey | ActionParsnip: yes on like 8 other hard drives. | 13:32 |
| anonee | Casey if you have a backup you don't need photorec | 13:33 |
| ActionParsnip | Casey: then you can recreate the data | 13:33 |
| Casey | ActionParsnip: this was to consolidate all of those drives (some on computers that are no longer in this state) and then create a backup of the backup, I was only touching this to take it out of EXT4 and move it to NTFS | 13:34 |
| ActionParsnip | Casey: ntfs? really... | 13:34 |
| ubair | new user .. any help ?? | 13:34 |
| anonee | ubair please don't ask to ask questions, just go ahead, p.s. I'm not a bot | 13:35 |
| Casey | ActionParsnip: yes, Hirens does not see ext4 HDD's and I can't clone to my backup drives. | 13:35 |
| Casey | ActionParsnip: 90% of my work is one a windows machine so it just works out better for me. | 13:36 |
| rantic | ubair: Be specific when asking for help | 13:37 |
| Casey | is on windows machines** | 13:37 |
| Casey | anonee: I have photorec installed, how to you start this puppy? | 13:38 |
| anonee | Casey what kind of backup do u have? | 13:38 |
| rickyc | what is the preferred language to develop apps in ubuntu, qt? | 13:39 |
| Casey | anonee: the word backup is being loosely, I should be saying "copy" | 13:39 |
| ^Mike | Is there not a package for bugzilla any more? | 13:39 |
| Casey | anonee: for HDD Images, I use Ghost32, off of Hirens. | 13:39 |
| anonee | you have a copy of your data on ext4, some of them is lost, and you wanna copy the whole stuff to ntfs right? | 13:40 |
| xkernel | i'm looking for private cloud software build my own cloud | 13:40 |
| MonkeyDust | xkernel try owncloud | 13:40 |
| blazemore | xkernel: owncloud | 13:40 |
| xkernel | MonkeyDust, blazemore do you think its better to create owncloud or to install each service as standalone like mail server, file server ,etc.. I'm talking about 1 server machine | 13:41 |
| MonkeyDust | xkernel better ask in #ubuntu-server | 13:41 |
| blazemore | xkernel: It depends on what you want from it. It can be better to install everything yourself because then you know 100% what you are running | 13:41 |
| Casey | anonee: overall goal: to take all info off of the raid 1 ext4's move it to a temp HDD. Reformat the ext4's to NTFS. Problem: For some reason I did not have permissions on my hard drives to just right-click delete, so I had to go in as root and delete the folder that did not need to come over. Thus I deleted all data :( | 13:42 |
| anonee | Casey now for the lost folder, read this http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/PhotoRec to know how to use photorec, note: always be sure to recover to a different partition, and the rest is gonna be easier I think it can be done by a # cp command | 13:44 |
| Casey | the raid1 ext4's are still intact, and I haven't formated or touched them since I deleted the whole folder inside the raid 1 | 13:44 |
| Casey | anonee: I've used it in the past off of a cd in bootup, so I'll be ok there, I just didnt know how to start the program in linux, lol. | 13:45 |
| anonee | Casey I don't remember too there's a tool in photorec called, let me check | 13:45 |

| anonee | Casey nobody wants to help me change this icon | 13:53 |
| Snowie | RxDx: isnt that literally as simple as having all on the same subnet and just setting one dhcp server? just manually specify the ip for each ap, and let the one dhcp do the rest | 13:54 |
| Slart | tgary: isn't Libertine in the repositories? (apt-cache search libertine) | 13:54 |
| RxDx | Snowie, thats exactly what I want | 13:54 |

| tgary | Slart: There is fonts-linuxlibertine, but it contains only the OpenType version, and not the True Type Font version. | 13:55 |

| anonee | OMG ubottu! | 13:56 |
| Snowie | RxDx: i see, so im not sure of your specifics, but in the 'router' software youve got running your 2 NIC, cant you disable dhcp on all but one, and manually set the IP for the AP side on each. Dhcp should then be available to all that connect. | 13:57 |

| RxDx | Snowie, actually, my routers softwares is Debian Linux... My scenario is.. One backbone formed by the router (the backbone address is 192.168.0.X, where X is the number of the mesh router)... and each mesh router has another wireless interface that I is running HostAPD (to transform it into an AP) | 13:59 |
| tgary | Slart: Ok, I've downloaded from SF and imported to my app.. I don't know why this 8MB is not included in Ubuntu. | 13:59 |
| RxDx | the backbone IPs is set manually.. but the AP IPs should be delivery automactly with dhcp | 13:59 |
| Slart | tgary: I have no idea either | 14:00 |
| tgary | Slart: (It is in the official linux libertine sourceforge page, no need to convert.) | 14:00 |

| RxDx | but I want to provide transparent handoff between the mesh routers... | 14:00 |
| blazemore | RxDx: Try #ubuntu-server or ##networking (the latter is unaffiliated with Ubuntu) | 14:01 |
| Snowie | RxDx: Ahh, yeah, that i dont think i can help with, the handoff. other than that, enable dhcp on just one router, so one router would be the gateway address for all ohter routers, and all other devices connected to those routers also. do you get what i mean? | 14:02 |

| MoPac | Hello; I have a question about folder-mounted devices in general and cifs in particular. I have some folders on a NAS mounted on login via fstab, and for the most part it's great how transparent it is. However, I'm wondering if there is any simple way for a program to see that a folder is so mounted and what the IP is? | 14:29 |
| s4ck | magic happened | 14:29 |
| MoPac | My issue is specifically with the fact that CrashPlan can't throttle the LAN traffic between my laptop and the NAS folders because it just sees it as a local folder, not a LAN destination. I wanted to suggest to CrashPlan that they add functionality to discriminate, but I don't know if there is a ready way for an application to check. | 14:29 |

| MoPac | ezra-s: I'm pretty sure CrashPlan actually works by knowing in advance: this is a backup to a LAN destination, this is a backup to a WAN destination, or this is a backup to a local folder. It then throttles the rates based on your settings, not by monitoring its own traffic and then determining that it's sending data over LAN or WAN | 14:34 |

| MoPac | jpds: Sorry, I'm a bit to green to follow -- I know the fstab file but not GIO gvolume | 14:37 |
| arc__ | yeah i just ask a lapto tech guy at my school | 14:37 |
| MoPac | ezra-s: thanks for thinking about it anyway | 14:37 |
| ActionParsnip | s4ck: no, an installer not running will not toch your data. You should also have a backup if your data is important | 14:37 |
| Sazpaimon | can anyone please confirm if the latest bcmwl drivers support the new 802.11ac cards? | 14:37 |
| s4ck | *touch | 14:37 |
| ezra-s | BluesKaj, are you talking to me? | 14:37 |
| s4ck | actionparsnip, you make lots of english grammatical mistakes.... | 14:37 |
| BluesKaj | in general ezra-s , you're not the onlky one | 14:38 |
| BluesKaj | err only | 14:38 |
| linux_hacks | JayPro: did you do this java_home should be set to /usr/lib/jum/default-java | 14:38 |
| MonkeyDust | s4ck stick to support questions, please | 14:38 |
| blazemore | s4ck: typographical errors, not spelling mistakes. I doubt he thinks it's spelled "toch", it's more likely he just typed it incorrectly | 14:38 |
| arc__ | anyway when i upgraded to 12.04 i lost all of my packages and they where compatible with 12.04.1 so i am confused | 14:38 |
| ezra-s | BluesKaj, but I can use informal language If I want, or not? | 14:39 |
| ashish_ | my ubuntu 12.04 system heating too much. its dell m101z | 14:39 |
| s4ck | blazemore: please shut up | 14:39 |
| k1l_ | s4ck: please stick to the technical ubuntu support in here (see the messages the bot gave you) | 14:39 |
| jpds | MoPac: It's an interface to what GNOME knows about mountpoints. | 14:39 |
| s4ck | ok k1l_ | 14:39 |
| blazemore | Thanks k1l_ | 14:39 |
| MoPac | jpds: thanks | 14:40 |
| arc__ | ashish_ is there anything stuck in your fan | 14:40 |
| BluesKaj | ezra-s, informal isn't always est for those who don't understand English idioms and vernaculars as well you do. | 14:40 |
| ashish_ | nothing. my fan is working file. initially i installed 13.04 but there was not driver supportd to amd display manager so i install 12.04 with fglrsx drivers its its too hot | 14:41 |
| ezra-s | BluesKaj, english is not my native language, I use what I usually hear, "my bad" was used a lot when I lived in US | 14:41 |
| JayPro | linux_hacks yeah did not work | 14:41 |
| BluesKaj | no matter | 14:41 |
| netlar | Good morning all | 14:41 |
| ezra-s | :P | 14:41 |
| linux_hacks | do you have any special reason to use openjdk | 14:41 |
| BluesKaj | my bad is poor English even by US standards | 14:42 |
| linux_hacks | generally I would install sun jdk and use ant download and configure system | 14:42 |
| ezra-s | BluesKaj, well you weren't there hearing "it ain't" all day long :P | 14:42 |
| BluesKaj | my bad isn't "cool" , it's dumbing down , that's all | 14:43 |

| JayPro | linux_hacks i just want to use ofbiz.... checked tutorials on installing ofbiz on ubuntu and it was asking for for them - http://rmahmadur.wordpress.com/2013/06/03/installation-of-ofbiz-on-ubuntu-12-04/ | 14:43 |
| * ezra-s erases "my bad" as requested | 14:43 | |
| linux_hacks | ok..so do this.. | 14:44 |
| drasko_ | HI all. Boot process hangs here : [ 13.184419] init: upstart-udev-bridge state changed from starting to pre-start | 14:44 |
| drasko_ | for a quite long time. How to debug thi ? | 14:45 |
| drasko_ | *this? | 14:45 |
| blazemore | drasko_: Does it boot eventually? | 14:45 |
| drasko_ | yeap | 14:45 |
| drasko_ | but after 2 minutes | 14:46 |
| drasko_ | meanwhile no console output | 14:46 |
| drasko_ | untill login prompt, which appears, as I said, around 2 min after | 14:46 |
| blazemore | drasko_: Can you please run the command: " sudo apt-get install bootchart pybootchartgui -y " (without the quotes). BootChart is a utility which helps find bottlenecks in the boot process | 14:47 |
| blazemore | drasko_: Once you've done that, reboot and let me know | 14:47 |
| drasko_ | blazemore, I already have bootchart installed | 14:47 |
| xormor | "compassionate conservative" is bad English :D | 14:47 |
| drasko_ | and I booted with it | 14:47 |
| blazemore | Oh OK show me your bootchart them :) | 14:47 |
| blazemore | *then | 14:47 |
| drasko_ | but I can not find bootstrap.tgz | 14:47 |
| drasko_ | *bootchart.tgz | 14:47 |
| blazemore | drasko_: It's a png image in /var/log/bootchart | 14:47 |
| ezra-s | hehe | 14:47 |
| drasko_ | blazemore, I do not have pybootchartgui | 14:48 |
| p0wn3d | Does anyone know a published list of updates you receive by date from the update manager? | 14:48 |
| drasko_ | just bootchart | 14:48 |
| Ace[Laptop] | hi all, does anyone know of a method of installing 13.04 ubuntu-minimal that supports UEFI booting (mini.iso does not work, no uefi support) | 14:48 |
| blazemore | drasko_: Are there any files in /var/log/bootchart ? | 14:49 |
| Semper | Gentlemen, when I open a remote SSH session with xforwarding and start the DE | 14:49 |
| Semper | is it meant to migrate the session from the PC I am sshing from? | 14:49 |
| drasko_ | blazemore, yes actually... I just saw tgz | 14:49 |
| drasko_ | let me analyze it | 14:49 |
| blazemore | drasko_: You need pybootchartgui to turn that into a png | 14:49 |
| p0wn3d | I found it ubuntuupdates.org | 14:49 |
| drasko_ | yeap, I know ;) | 14:49 |
| drasko_ | I have this on my host | 14:50 |
| drasko_ | (I run ubuntu on ARM target, and have no GUI there) | 14:50 |
| ashish_ | my ubuntu system is heating too much with 12.04 and fglrx drivers | 14:51 |
| ashish_ | i installed tlp and zram also. its normal temp is 95C | 14:51 |
| mar77i | hello #ubuntu | 14:51 |
| blazemore | Semper: No, it will work for new individual applications (try xeyes as the standard test example) | 14:51 |
| mar77i | boss said we'll import these users with dots in their login names. also, they should be able to log in with these and new users should also be created with dots from gui. | 14:52 |
| mar77i | a quick google didn't turn up too much useful info so I came here... | 14:53 |
| blazemore | I don't understand your question mar77i | 14:53 |
| h00k | ashish_: are your fans running? Does it heat up that much with any other OS? consider checking heatsinks for blockages | 14:53 |
| Okitain | mar77i: run? | 14:53 |
| blazemore | Everyone in here now is going to be "check your fan for paper" with every overheating issue :P | 14:53 |
| blazemore | 3 | 14:53 |
| ashish_ | ya my fan is working fine. in windows system was ok | 14:53 |
| h00k | blazemore: it's not a bad troubleshooting step. | 14:54 |
| blazemore | h00k: I know, but one assumes that the end user has checked this sort of thing for themselves before coming to IRC :P | 14:54 |
| blazemore | or at least, one used to be able to assume | 14:55 |
| mar77i | to get precise, this must have to do with that NAME_REGEX variable. where is that set? | 14:55 |
| ashish_ | is there is any way to identify the issue or because of which reason system is heating at this level? | 14:56 |
| ashish_ | i m using gnome3.4 with ubuntu12.04 | 14:56 |
| Ace[Laptop] | does anyone know of a 13.04 that supports both the minimal install and uefi booting? | 14:56 |
| Ace[Laptop] | *13.04 iso | 14:56 |
| h00k | blazemore: I assume little :( | 14:57 |
| saiarcot895 | ashish_: you can try using top to see what process is using the most CPU | 14:57 |
| saiarcot895 | ashish_: I'm assuming it's the CPUs that are overheating | 14:57 |
| h00k | blazemore: /query for a good story --> | 14:58 |
| ashish__ | gnome cell is using 50-60, it may be the reason of heating? | 14:58 |
| JayPro | thanks for the help, linux_hacks!!! | 14:58 |
| linux_hacks | you're welcome. | 14:59 |
| mar77i | hmm, I found the /etc/adduser.conf file, but adding the dot into the character list didn't help. | 14:59 |
| saiarcot895 | ashish__: If that process is using the most CPU, I would say that's the cause | 14:59 |
| ashish__ | so what can i do to check it?????? | 15:00 |
| Okitain | Ace[Laptop]: can you switch it off? | 15:01 |
| ashish__ | ubuntu11.10 was woring very well with my system | 15:01 |
| saiarcot895 | ashish__: is that the name of the process as it appears in top? | 15:01 |
| blazemore | ashish__: What laptop are you on? | 15:01 |
| Ace[Laptop] | Okitain: switching it off will disable a feature I'd like to test, intel's rapid start | 15:02 |
| ashish__ | dell m101z | 15:02 |
| === felsefe is now known as ASSA | ||
| Ace[Laptop] | Okitain: it also signficantly increases my boot time | 15:02 |
| ashish__ | saiarcot895, i didnt get what u r asking and how to check | 15:02 |
| === ASSA is now known as A-S-A | ||
| Okitain | Ace[Laptop]: you can try to install ubuntu and then retroactively switch the efi bootloader on. | 15:03 |
| saiarcot895 | ashish__: open a terminal and type in top; the process using the most CPU will appear at the top, and the name of the process will appear on the right side | 15:03 |
| Ace[Laptop] | Okitain: that's an interesting thought | 15:03 |
| ashish__ | saiarcot895,_ ya its gnome cell | 15:04 |
| Ace[Laptop] | Okitain: I wonder how up to date this is --> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI#Converting_Ubuntu_into_EFI_mode | 15:04 |
| === A-S-A is now known as ASA` | ||
| Okitain | Ace[Laptop]: seems good enough as it has SecureBoot in. | 15:05 |
| mar77i | actually, changing the value in /etc/adduser.conf has no effect at all... how so? | 15:06 |
| blazemore | mar77i: "man /etc/adduser.conf" | 15:06 |
| saiarcot895 | ashish__: I can't find anything about gnome_cell or gnome-cell on the internet | 15:07 |
| Ace[Laptop] | Okitain: I guess that's my best option, it's a bit disappointing that the real installer isn't flexible enough to just install a minimal system if requested | 15:07 |
| saiarcot895 | ashish__: the only suggestion I have is to kill the process, either from within top or by using pkill | 15:07 |
| ashish__ | sorry its gnome-shell | 15:07 |
| Ace[Laptop] | Okitain: I'm a bit surprised ubuntu needs more than one install iso at all, other distros manage to do one that supports all the different install types | 15:07 |
| Okitain | Ace[Laptop]: if you want, you can turn to the dark side and just use Fedora. | 15:07 |
| saiarcot895 | ashish__: that makes more sense | 15:08 |
| ashish__ | i m really very sorry | 15:08 |
| Ace[Laptop] | Okitain: I can't stand the package management | 15:08 |
| saiarcot895 | ashish__: in that case, don't kill the process | 15:08 |
| mar77i | blazemore: funny | 15:08 |
| xormor | sudo apt-get install packagename | 15:08 |
| blazemore | mar77i: I wasn't trying to be funny...? | 15:08 |
| mar77i | blazemore: /etc/adduser.conf contains a default regex with a backslashed end of line anchor \$... but it looks like the shell doesn't try to expand a dollar char at the end of the string leaving the backslash in there and passing the actual "...\$" to the regex engine which then expects user names to end with '$'... | 15:10 |
| Okitain | Ace[Laptop]: There is Mageia, openSUSE, etcetera... | 15:10 |
| saiarcot895 | ashish__: I'm guessing it has something to do with graphics | 15:10 |
| saiarcot895 | ashish__: can you run "glxinfo | grep direct" and tell me what it says? | 15:10 |
| Okitain | Really, I can't help but feel it's all a clusterfuck done specifically so that linux would have trouble. | 15:11 |
| DarkDex | hey guys | 15:11 |
| Ace[Laptop] | Okitain: those are all rpm based, the only non-ubuntu I've considered is debian | 15:11 |
| DarkDex | is there a way to download torrents off the cli? | 15:11 |
| ActionParsnip | DarkDex: sure, transmission has a cli interface | 15:11 |
| ashish__ | saiarcot895, the glxinfo not installed | 15:11 |
| mar77i | blazemore: my current regex in /etc/adduser.conf line 85: NAME_REGEX="^[a-z][-a-z0-9_.]*$" # works | 15:11 |
| BluesKaj | !language > Okitain | 15:11 |
| ubottu | Okitain, please see my private message | 15:11 |
| Ace[Laptop] | Okitain: and if I use debian, I lose all the PPA stuff | 15:11 |
| DarkDex | ActionParsnip: Is it ok if I pm you man? | 15:11 |
| ActionParsnip | DarkDex: sure, ive not done it but I know it can be done | 15:12 |
| BluesKaj | ashish__, install mesa-utils | 15:12 |
| Okitain | DarkDex: there is also rtorrent. | 15:12 |
| Ace[Laptop] | DarkDex: deluge has a cli too, also, rtorrent is an awesome command-line-only program | 15:12 |

| ActionParsnip | vaka: contact projects using java and offer your services | 15:15 |
| saiarcot895 | ashish__: do you have nividia or amd/ati graphics or intel graphics? | 15:15 |

| vaka | i am not sure which projects i can get into | 15:16 |
| vaka | can you give me a link where i can register | 15:16 |
| saiarcot895 | ashish__: you can try installing the proprietary drivers to see if that changes anything | 15:16 |
| vaka | if any | 15:17 |
| sanav | hello , is their any IRC for support on free-web host ? I found problem in sign up . | 15:17 |
| saiarcot895 | ashish__: I believe you have to go into Software Sources, into the Additional Drivers tab, and install the drivers there | 15:17 |
| ashish__ | saiarcot895, i have already installed fglrx drivers | 15:17 |
| saiarcot895 | ashish__: did you have the same problem before installing the fglrx drivers? | 15:18 |
| ashish__ | saiarcot895, ya i have same problem before it | 15:19 |
| saiarcot895 | ashish__: not sure what it is then, sorry about that | 15:22 |

| === _BJFreeman is now known as BJfreeman | ||
| === VD is now known as Guest92811 | ||
| ashish__ | it was unity | 15:27 |
| ashish__ | sory that time i was new in linux | 15:27 |
| ashish__ | it was default disply manager. | 15:28 |
| holstein | ashish__: im just going to propose you might have a "better" experience in something that doesnt require 3d.. such as xfce/xubuntu | 15:28 |
| ashish__ | holstein, its surely prob of gnome? | 15:29 |
| holstein | ashish__: i didnt say, or mean to imply that | 15:30 |
| holstein | ashish__: its likely related to the graphics driver support,, where you are troubleshooting.. and, you may not get support for your device for inux | 15:30 |
| ashish__ | holstein, i just asked because i like gnome. if there is no alternate way that i have to use lxde | 15:30 |
| holstein | ashish__: if you have tried all the drivers that are available | 15:30 |
| holstein | ashish__: the alternative is to purchase hardware with better linux support | 15:31 |
| holstein | ashish__: lxde/lubuntu doesnt require 3d either | 15:31 |
| ashish__ | holstein, this laptop was shipped with ubuntu10.10 only | 15:31 |
| holstein | ashish__: what were the support terms? have you tried all the drivers available? | 15:32 |
| ashish__ | holstein, so i dont think drivers should be the issue | 15:32 |
| holstein | ashish__: if you have tried all the drivers, and they are not acceptable, then the drivers *are* the issue | 15:33 |
| rosco_y | how do you set your mouse-buttons so you can click on the top border of a window to send it to the back of other windows? | 15:33 |

| ashish__ | it shows in system setting, overview VISA:RS880M | 15:34 |
| blazemore | drasko_: Like I said, show me your bootchart | 15:35 |
| holstein | ashish__: is the performance acceptable? i wouldnt worry much about the labels | 15:35 |
| netlar | How can I find out the chipset of my bluetooth? It is built into the motherboard, it is not a usb adapter. | 15:35 |
| blazemore | netlar: lspci | 15:35 |
| drasko_ | blazemore, this bootchart does not tell me much. Where can I send it ? | 15:36 |
| ashish__ | holstein, performance is ok, only heatin issue but its too much now 98C | 15:36 |
| blazemore | drasko_: However you want... I like imgur | 15:36 |
| netlar | blazemore: Not sure which one it is from this list | 15:36 |
| blazemore | netlar: They should be named by date/time - just send me the most recent one | 15:36 |
| holstein | ashish__: that might be as good as it gets.. you can ask the product vendor for more specific support, or try and file a bug with the creator of the driver you are using | 15:37 |
| holstein | ashish__: i would try and confirm that that is the tempreature.. could be reporting the temp incorrectly | 15:37 |
| holstein | ashish__: i have an invidia card that gets hot, and i deal with it, since i want to use linux | 15:37 |
| ashish__ | i m using lm sensor fr it | 15:37 |

| holstein | ashish__: sure.. and im not saying its reporting incorrectly, but it could be | 15:38 |
| ashish__ | holstein, so i have to file bug. no other solution right now? | 15:39 |
| Hekukuokah | can I write ubuntu app for ubuntu phone with python? | 15:39 |

| ashish__ | holstein, ya i have tried | 15:39 |
| whoever | ashish__: what device, and what is the prob | 15:39 |
| holstein | ashish__: aldo, dont assume its getting hot from one source | 15:40 |
| ashish__ | whoever, its del m101z with ubuntu12.04, gnome desktop, fglrx drivers for ati/amd | 15:40 |

| holstein | ashish__: you have tried what? | 15:41 |
| ashish__ | holstein, yaa that what i want to know, only one reason should nt be | 15:41 |

| holstein | ashish__: have you tried the ppa steam suggests? have you tried 13.04? have you tried just using the open driver? why are you not using the opensource driver? | 15:42 |
| saiarcot895 | holstein: he's on the fglrx proprietary drivers, and he had the same problem with the opensource driver | 15:42 |
| joelmo | something is wrong with my apt-get, i get this error message i need to run `apt-get -f install` | 15:42 |
| holstein | saiarcot895: heat | 15:42 |
| holstein | ? | 15:42 |
| ActionParsnip | ashish__: did you use the legacy fglrx ppa? | 15:42 |
| ashish__ | holstein, only display drivers are may not be the reason fr this much heating | 15:42 |
| afflicto | How do I flush dns on ubuntu? | 15:43 |

| joelmo | but when i do that i get 'dpkg returned error' | 15:43 |
| netlar | blazemore I am on 13.04 | 15:43 |
| joelmo | error code 1 | 15:43 |
| holstein | ashish__: i have 2 machines here where only the display driver are the issue for the heat | 15:43 |
| ActionParsnip | afflicto: restart networking is one way, or reset dnsmasq | 15:43 |
| netlar | blazemore: I think it is the driver ath9k | 15:43 |
| saiarcot895 | holstein: based on top, the process taking the most CPU is gnome_shell | 15:43 |
| ashish__ | ActionParsnip, ya i used | 15:43 |
| afflicto | ActionParsnip: reset dnsmasq? | 15:44 |
| blazemore | netlar: It is | 15:44 |
| netlar | blazemore: I do not see it in synapic | 15:44 |
| ashish__ | ubuntu13.04 xserver doesnt support my driver sp i downgrade to 12.04 | 15:44 |
| whoever | ashish__: amd /vision tek cards in my experience will run hotter then you expect, it got to whare i had so many other probs with those cards i had to go to nvidex | 15:44 |
| holstein | ashish__: 12.04 is not supporting your driver.. have you tried the ppa? or 13.04 first hand? | 15:45 |
| ActionParsnip | afflicto: sudo service dnsmasq restart | 15:45 |
| ActionParsnip | ashish__: 12.04 is LTS anyway, much better iimho | 15:45 |
| doafterthink | hi,all | 15:45 |
| bjoswald | Agreed | 15:45 |
| holstein | ashish__: if the vendor of your product does not support you, then you will need to experiment and troubleshoot | 15:45 |
| netlar | blazemore: I am on this page: http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/Atheros | 15:45 |
| ActionParsnip | ashish__: you could try an xorg.conf file to specify settings in the x server | 15:46 |
| netlar | blazemore: But should it be in the repository? | 15:46 |
| blazemore | netlar: Generally you should try to find Ubuntu-specific solutions. Is your problem that your wireless is working but your bluetooth isn't? | 15:46 |
| ashish__ | holstein, fisrt i use 13.04. in that no proper driver or fglrx driver support is there as fglrx not upgraded with new xorg so i downgrade to 12.04 and installed fglrrx | 15:46 |
| holstein | ashish__: if you had "proper" 12.04 support, you wouldnt be here | 15:47 |
| netlar | blazemore: yes exactly, nothing pairs up with the bluetooth | 15:47 |
| holstein | ashish__: have you tried the PPA that steam suggests? | 15:47 |
| blazemore | netlar: Are you dual-booting with Windows? | 15:47 |
| netlar | blazemore: No I am not | 15:47 |
| ashish__ | ActionParsnip, how to do that | 15:47 |
| blazemore | netlar: Does your laptop have a hardware switch for bluetooth? | 15:47 |
| ActionParsnip | ashish__: with lots of cursing and swearing | 15:48 |
| ashish__ | holstein,please explain. i used ppa for installing drivers | 15:48 |
| netlar | blazemore: this is a desktop, no switch | 15:48 |
| ActionParsnip | ashish__: its a very well documented file | 15:48 |
| holstein | ashish__: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Valve#AMD.2BAC8-ATI_Graphics | 15:48 |
| tyteen4a03 | Hi, trying to install nvidia drivers using this guide: http://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/ubuntu-ringtail-nvidia.html but I followed all the way to modprobe bit and it tells me nvidia_update is missing. am I missing something? | 15:48 |
| ashish__ | holstein, i also called dell, i got the response that we ship laptop with ubuntu but dont provide any support for it | 15:49 |
| holstein | !nvidia | tyteen4a03 this is the guide i use | 15:49 |
| ubottu | tyteen4a03 this is the guide i use: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto | 15:49 |
| MoPac | Hello; I have a question about files or lines that can protect or override settings files. Example: in the ambience theme, I always want "colorize scrollbar" changed from false to true, and I hate having to manually do it every time that theme file has been replaced during an update. | 15:49 |
| tyteen4a03 | holstein, oh thank you, will have a look | 15:50 |
| MoPac | Other example: I hate the shine on the launcher icons and have made icons that are blank. But they keep getting replaced during updates | 15:50 |
| ActionParsnip | tyteen4a03: once you have nvidia-current installed just reboot. I assume you do not have a switchable GPU | 15:50 |
| holstein | MoPac: i would try and find the config and back it up | 15:51 |
| ashish_ | ActionParsnip, please give me the link of that file | 15:51 |
| holstein | !xorgconf | 15:51 |
| ubottu | The /etc/X11/xorg.conf file is deprecated, but sometimes may still be needed to pass values to specific drivers. Generic xorg.conf generation: http://ubottu.com/y/xorgconf - ATI/AMD ( fglrx driver ) specific: http://ubottu.com/y/atiamd - NVidia ( nvidia driver )specific: http://ubottu.com/y/nvidia man xorg.conf for file structure and syntax. | 15:51 |
| holstein | ashish__: ^ | 15:51 |
| blazemore | MoPac: Make a copy of the themes you are editing, and call them MyTheme or MyIcons or whatever, then the updates won't overwrite them | 15:51 |
| ActionParsnip | ashish_: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/ | 15:52 |
| MoPac | blazemore: holstein: I guess I was hoping that it might be possible to just protect certain files or certain lines of settings while letting updates work on other ones. I didn't want to lock myself into today's version of everything forever if I could help it | 15:53 |
| netlar | blazemore: So ath9k was merged into the kernal. That is why I do not see a seperate package for it? | 15:53 |
| blazemore | netlar: Yes, ubuntu includes the ath9k module by default | 15:53 |
| tyteen4a03 | ActionParsnip, oh yes, I don't | 15:54 |
| fugutive221 | Hi everybody | 15:54 |
| tyteen4a03 | ActionParsnip, in that case, thanks | 15:54 |
| MoPac | blazemore: holstein: I do have backups of my edited images and notes about my edited lines so that I can redo them when needed, but it's just gotten to be a pain | 15:54 |
| holstein | MoPac: blazemore 's suggestion sounds like the first thing i would try... then make copies as needed of the config to recover | 15:54 |
| netlar | blazemore: huh, so bluetooth on my system should be supported | 15:54 |
| fugutive221 | ActionParsnip: Still have the problem | 15:54 |
| blazemore | netlar: Yeah, should be... which makes it more difficult to diagnose | 15:54 |
| blazemore | !bluetooth | netlar I assume you've been through this? | 15:55 |
| ubottu | netlar I assume you've been through this?: For instructions on how to set up bluetooth, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup | 15:55 |
| netlar | blazemore: Does it matter that it is 4.0? | 15:55 |
| blazemore | netlar: What is 4.0, sorry? | 15:55 |
| holstein | fugutive221: if you direct the specifics of the "problem" to the entire channel, other volunteers may be able to help | 15:55 |
| netlar | blazemore: My bluetooth | 15:55 |
| blazemore | Is 4.0 a bluetooth protocol version? (Sorry I don't know much about bluetooth itsself) | 15:55 |
| tyteen4a03 | another issue - My cursor is flashing when I point to some locations, how do I fix that? | 15:55 |
| tyteen4a03 | blazemore, yes | 15:55 |
| fugutive221 | I have the following problem: I installed 13.04 and after a month the touchpad stopped working. How to solve this ? | 15:55 |
| netlar | blazemore: Yes, latest protocol | 15:56 |
| blazemore | fugutive221: You almost certainly disabled the touchpad by accident, by hitting a keyboard shortcut (usually Fn + a function key) | 15:56 |
| netlar | blazemore: Maybe I need to install the bluez package? | 15:56 |
| holstein | fugutive221: i would try a live CD to be sure the hardware isnt broken.. i would try booting an older kernel, if an update seems to have broken it.. i agree blazemore ^^ about confirming the on/off switch | 15:57 |
| fugutive221 | blazemore: I tryed that and it didn't solve the problem | 15:57 |
| blazemore | netlar: bluez is just an application for managing bluetooth connections I believe... You could certainly try installing it | 15:57 |
| blazemore | fugutive221: Does the trackpad work if you boot from a LiveCD? | 15:57 |
| linux_hacks | fugutive221: were you able to use your touchpad with live cd ? | 15:57 |
| blazemore | fugutive221: Or any other OS on your machine? | 15:57 |
| netlar | blazemore: Just those instructions sent by the bot talks about it | 15:57 |
| fugutive221 | holstein: I tried a live USB and have the same problem (even with lower versions such as: 12.10) | 15:57 |
| Ace544 | Hello: | 15:57 |
| blazemore | OK fugutive221 what model of laptop is it? | 15:57 |
| Ace544 | I have a question if someone is available to help. | 15:58 |
| linux_hacks | Ace544..just shoot | 15:58 |
| holstein | fugutive221: then, the issue is not related to the operating system, it seems. if no other OS sees it, or a live CD | 15:58 |
| Ace544 | Thanks linux_hacks! | 15:58 |
| fugutive221 | blazemore: itĀ“s a Toshiba Satellite P870-335 | 15:58 |
| fugutive221 | holstein: the touchpad works fine in Windows | 15:58 |
| tyteen4a03 | another issue - My cursor is flashing when I point to some locations, how do I fix that? | 15:59 |
| Ace544 | I wrote to a USB flash Drive the Ubuntu OS and I installed it. Now I can't access my flash drive to use it for my files. How do I fix it? | 15:59 |
| razzledazzle | why does Windows share keep asking me for credentials? | 15:59 |
| razzledazzle | nothing works, even I supplied Windows username and password :| | 15:59 |
| blazemore | Ace544: You can use the Disk utility in Ubuntu to format the flash drive | 15:59 |
| holstein | fugutive221: but, you cant get any live CD to use it? | 15:59 |
| fugutive221 | holstein: I could try | 16:00 |
| linux_hacks | fugutuve221: were you able to enable and disable in Mouse options ? | 16:00 |
| fugutive221 | holstein: but has it another effect than a live USB? | 16:00 |
| ActionParsnip | razzledazzle: does your windows pc have a password? | 16:00 |
| blazemore | fugutive221: Could you please post the output of running the command "lspci -v" onto http://paste.ubuntu.com | 16:00 |
| ActionParsnip | razzledazzle: sorry, windows account? | 16:00 |
| holstein | fugutive221: when i read "I tried a live USB and have the same problem (even with lower versions such as: 12.10)" that made me think you have tried live CD's | 16:00 |
| razzledazzle | ActionParsnip, yes it does, I used it but it doesn't work | 16:00 |
| linux_hacks | fugutive221: honestly speaking the flash drive should be able to show as any USB stick | 16:01 |
| linux_hacks | the list of files | 16:01 |
| fugutive221 | holstein: No I tried live USB | 16:01 |
| razzledazzle | Ubuntu share works perfectly with it though | 16:01 |
| holstein | fugutive221: oh.. i see.. you are tring USB and i said CD.. that is irrelevant.. the live environment was waht i was going for.. USB/cd.. whatever | 16:01 |
| linux_hacks | sorry that was meant to Ace544 | 16:01 |
| fugutive221 | blazemore: where should I paste it? | 16:02 |
| razzledazzle | but not the other way, blank password, Windows credentials, Ubuntu credentials, nothing work, even the Domain name is in all caps | 16:02 |
| blazemore | fugutive221: http://paste.ubuntu.com | 16:02 |
| linux_hacks | Ace544: restart system and connect the flash drive to see if it shows like any USB stick... for the files | 16:02 |

| tubaguy50035 | Hello all. I have an Ubuntu VM on a VMWare cluster. We're trying to restore a backup and the restored VM is hanging on "init: udev-fallback-graphics main process terminated". Any thoughts what that might be? | 16:51 |
| yeats | explodes: what's your end goal, are you trying to install? rescue a system? etc. | 16:51 |
| trism | nedbat: would depend on the question I suppose | 16:51 |
| nedbat | trism: I thought fork() would mark pages as copy-on-write, because usually an execve is about to happen, so they'll never need to be actually copied. Clearly, that's a naive understanding, because something else is happening here. Can you explain the fuller picture? | 16:53 |

| backbox | backbox 3.05 | 16:54 |
| trism | nedbat: it is not necessarily about copy-on-write, the kernel still need to allocate structures during the fork which takes memory too | 16:54 |

| trism | nedbat: plus there is the overcommit policy: sysctl vm.overcommit_memory; which on my ubuntu system is set to 0, so it makes choices about how much memory it allows you to overcommit | 16:56 |
| trism | nedbat: https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/Documentation/vm/overcommit-accounting | 16:58 |
| nedbat | trism: if I can read between the lines here: overcommiting means the fork() is alerting the OS that it will eventually need X pages, and if there aren't X pages available, it gets an out of mem error even without copying, but if I change this setting, it will let it continue? | 16:58 |
| trism | nedbat: yes you could try setting it to 1 and see what happens | 16:58 |

"apt-cache policy <package>" shows "Installed: 1.85-001, Candidate 1.85-002", but "apt-get install --reinstall <package>" tries to reinstall 001 instead of upgrading to 002. I've never seen this behavior before, can anyone tell me what might be causing it? | 17:04 |
| febLey | sure | 17:04 |
| wilee-nilee | febLey, Hmm it's in mine | 17:04 |
| febLey | i only have pointer speed and double click | 17:05 |
| kostkon | Zal, try cleaning your package cache and then retry, by giving: sudo apt-get clean | 17:05 |
| krz | kostkon: ty | 17:05 |
| wilee-nilee | febLey, pointer speed is acceleration I believe it is just very developed I think. | 17:06 |

| BluesKaj | krz, look for postresSQL in the software center | 17:07 |
| febLey | wilee-nilee but can't i set the mouse sensivity seperate from the acceleration? | 17:08 |
| Zal | kostkon, I haven't tried "upgrade" yet, just "install --reinstall". What confuses me is that "install --reinstall" has always upgraded for me in the past, as far as I know. | 17:08 |
| Zal | kostkon, that said, this is a new version of ubuntu for me, so apt-get may be acting differently than I expect | 17:09 |
| BluesKaj | krz, my mistake , postgresSQL , rather | 17:09 |
| wilee-nilee | febLey, Not sure really, not an area I have had to tweak that often. | 17:09 |
| kostkon | Zal, maybe there are some dependency problems with that package | 17:09 |
| kostkon | Zal, try doing a sudo ap-get update and then try again | 17:10 |
| Zal | kostkon, could be, but in my case no attempt is made to install the new package at all. I did "update" a few times already, and "apt-cache policy" does see the newer candidate. | 17:10 |
| kostkon | Zal, that's strange yeah | 17:11 |

| anonee | hello folks! is it normal that on GNOME Applications menu if I right-click an item it just opens? just like when i left-click it? and why when I drag any item to the desktop it makes a link there, except for home, I had to make a link using terminal, one last question: is it OK to make a hard link to my home folder on my desktop? or the overlapping will cause problems to some apps? | 17:52 |
| wilee-nilee | anonee, What release and what desktop? | 17:53 |
| anonee | wilee-nilee its 12.04.2 GNOME Classic 3.4 (fallback mode) | 17:53 |

| wilee-nilee | no | 17:55 |
| wilee-nilee | as a server yes | 17:55 |
| trism | anonee: the right click to mess with items in the Applications menu was removed a while ago, now it is just a regular menu, and you can right click all of those | 17:55 |
| wilee-nilee | randomperson3089, There are a ton of light desktops if that is your general goal. | 17:56 |
| BluesKaj | bhearsum, so what is your network issue and how does it relate to dns ? | 17:57 |
| anonee | trism I've heard the same but for the panel, now I have to <Super>+<Alt>+right-click to modify or delete something, but even this is not working on menu items :( | 17:57 |
| bhearsum | BluesKaj: my issue is that i'd like to know what dns servers are actually being used to resolve things | 17:57 |
| === _BJFreeman is now known as BJfreeman | ||
| BluesKaj | bhearsum, check /etc/resolv.conf | 17:59 |
| bhearsum | BluesKaj: that points at 127.0.1.1, which is dnsmasq... | 17:59 |
| trism | anonee: if you are using the compiz fallback session that's true, compiz can capture that sequence, so it is kind of buggy | 17:59 |
| trism | anonee: it works fine with just alt+right click in the metacity session | 17:59 |
| BluesKaj | there are no nameservers listed there , bhearsum ? | 17:59 |
| bhearsum | BluesKaj: nameserver 127.0.1.1 | 18:00 |

| k1l_ | randomperson3089: no | 18:05 |
| trism | anonee: it will come from the current icon theme if it is just a name, though it can be a bit challenging to find since themes can inherit from each other, so you may need to search through several to find the icon | 18:06 |

| devmedo | i have a problem > i made an usb install ubuntu 13.04 with unetbootin , then when i go to step 3 and select ubuntu inside windows 7 , click continue , laptop reboot and windows starts , i've checked the iso ( it's md5 is correct ) | 18:40 |

| sveinse | I have a laptop with two disks, and win7 lives on sda and ubuntu (12.10) on sdb. Since ubuntu, windows has been installed and overwriten the MBR. I'd like to grub to install MBR on /dev/sdb ONLY. How can I do that within the Ubuntu scheme? | 18:42 |
| wilee-nilee | devmedo, So wubi is different than a partitioned install, so we need to isolate your goal here. | 18:42 |
| sveinse | I find no reference to which disk(s) to install grub to in /etc/defaults/grub | 18:43 |
| tlopez | what is a good software to rip subtitles from DVDs | 18:43 |
| devmedo | wilee-nilee : what do you mean? | 18:44 |
| BluesKaj | sveinse, actually not a good idea , grub works fine on the mbr of sda , just do sudo os-prober then sudo update-grub | 18:44 |
| devmedo | wilee-nilee : ubuntu 13.04 has no wubi | 18:44 |
| devmedo | so i made usb | 18:44 |
| wilee-nilee | devmedo, A install inside of windows is called a wubi it is just a file in windows and the disc does not install it. A partitioned install is in a partition. | 18:45 |
| Sazpaimon | can anyone please confirm if the latest bcmwl drivers support the new 802.11ac cards? | 18:45 |

| sveinse | BluesKaj, I had grub on sda before. But since sdb with Ubuntu is removable, taking the disk away confuses grub on sda and unables me to boot windows. | 18:46 |

| ubottu | devmedo, please see my private message | 18:47 |
| wilee-nilee | devmedo, IT can be confusing if you are new user, the wubi setup is basically been put in no support anymore, so we generally try to get people to do a standard install, it is easier to deeal with and more stable. | 18:47 |

| sveinse | I set up sdb to have higher bootpri than sda in BIOS. sdb comes with grub and can load linux and win7 from sda. However sda still needs to use the vanilla win bootloader | 18:47 |
| devmedo | wilee-nilee beleive me it's not wubi!!!!! | 18:47 |
| wilee-nilee | hermatize, That is considered spam to the channel, and very off topic. | 18:47 |
| anonee | Taek they're arabic programs mostly. for example there's one program called Quran searcher it works great on XP and 7, and I wanna make it work here, I'm trying hard to make it work on wine because you know it's gonna be the same system, not a virtual environment, however, I compared vmware to vbox under windows XP and 7 hosts and I have to say vmware is a lot faster, I like vbox's options and flexibility, and the ease of use more than vmware but vmware is stil | 18:47 |
| anonee | l better because it's really faster I don't know what they're doing exactly but it's a great work | 18:47 |
| Sazpaimon | my biggest concern is that there doesnt appear to be XP drivers for BCM4352, so if it doesn't work, I can't even use ndiswrapper :/ | 18:48 |
| mjayk | devmedo: I agree with you there is no wubi for 13.04 etc, but just thought could it be possible to upgrade -d a 12.04 wubi install ? | 18:48 |
| mjayk | devmedo: just a thought, but you are correct | 18:48 |
| MonkeyDust | tlopez nvm, it's no longer in the repos, just tried | 18:48 |
| holstein | Sazpaimon: just try it, friend.. you should be able to load that module on the live CD | 18:48 |
| Sazpaimon | holstein, I'll have to build it actually | 18:48 |
| BluesKaj | sveinse, then remove the sda disk , then use you live media ubuntu disk or usb stick and run sudo grub-install /dev/sdb , then when you reinsert the the removable drive , do sudo update -grub in ubuntu | 18:48 |
| wilee-nilee | devmedo, Right, however you described a install in windows that would be a wubi. What I am trying to do here is disciver exactly what type of install you want that is the jist here, then we can move to installing. | 18:49 |
| QnD | the bcm43xx has alot of info on that chipset via BackTrack. they actually explain it well. please excuse the distro reference | 18:49 |
| wilee-nilee | discover* | 18:49 |
| QnD | it is ubuntu based however | 18:49 |
| Sazpaimon | bcmwl 6.30.223.30 is staged to be in 13.10, which of course isnt out yet, so i'll need to backport it | 18:49 |
| holstein | Sazpaimon: there are live 13.10 iso's i would try as a test for that before doing too much work | 18:50 |
| devmedo | mjayk : wubi in 12.04 not working correctly the in-folder iso trick is not working , i mean that i've downloaded also 12.04 LTS iso | 18:50 |
| Sazpaimon | looks like it was published into saucy 19 days ago, so I'm guessing a nightly livecd will give me an answer then | 18:51 |
| wilee-nilee | mjayk, There is a wubi for 13.04, the both of you are misinformed, and might ask proper questions to get actual help. | 18:51 |
| mjayk | wilee-nilee: there is not im sorry | 18:51 |
| Sazpaimon | i'll see in a couple weeks, getting it from china so I'll have to wait for it to arrive | 18:51 |
| holstein | mjayk: i would do what i would do for *any* upgrade.. make proper backups, and be prepared for failure | 18:52 |
| devmedo | wilee-nilee give me the download! | 18:52 |
| mjayk | holstein: i dont understand you sorry | 18:52 |
| spillere | is there a good way to create video out of images? | 18:52 |
| blazemore | spillere: Do you mean like a photo slideshow? Or a fast movie where each image is one frame? | 18:53 |
| holstein | mjayk: i thought you were asking if you can upgrade a 12.04 if it is a wubi install? correct? | 18:53 |
| wilee-nilee | devmedo, http://releases.ubuntu.com/raring/ mjayk look at the bottom link. | 18:53 |
| mjayk | holstein: yes so someone thought they installed 13.04 via wubi :), that was my thought | 18:53 |
| devmedo | ok , i'll try and answer you | 18:53 |
| holstein | mjayk: no matter what answer i read, or get here, from anyone, i would backup my data, on *any* installation of any OS before upgrading | 18:53 |
| spillere | blazemore: a time lapse video. i was trying ffmpeg, but iy says its deprecated | 18:54 |
| spillere | blazemore: and cant find a command to do it | 18:54 |
| holstein | mjayk: the upgrade should work, but you should always have a backup and plan for failure | 18:54 |
| mjayk | holstein: sorry i dont see how anything to do with data backing regardless of the installation type relates in any way to my question lol | 18:54 |
| wilee-nilee | mjayk, Ubuntu officailly does not support the 13.04 wubi, however they asked for those that would, the user bcbc the only real helper in that app slipped that in for 13.04. | 18:55 |
| holstein | mjayk: whats the question? can you upgrade you 12.04 intall? sure.. and you are encouraged to backup, regardless of wubi or not | 18:55 |
| sveinse | BluesKaj: I ran grub-install on /dev/sdb and booted into ubuntu. I didn't have to run update-grub to get it to work. Does this imply that update-grub never decides on installing MBR and bootloaders anywhere, it merely updates grub.cfg? | 18:55 |
| holstein | mjayk: there will be no "sure, you are guaranteed success with your wubi install of 12.04.. nothind bad will happen" | 18:55 |
| sveinse | BluesKaj: So thanks | 18:56 |
| mjayk | holstein: the question was - can you upgrade wubi 12.04 to 13.04 , the answer would be yes, no , maybe | 18:56 |
| kostkon | spillere, tried this? https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/photofilmstrip/ | 18:56 |
| holstein | mjayk: the answer is the same as it it were *any* os.. have backups and do the upgrade | 18:56 |
| devmedo | wilee-nilee it gave me " the request not supported " | 18:56 |
| blazemore | haha kostkon I was just about to link that | 18:56 |
| spillere | kostkon: i only have access to the terminal :) | 18:56 |

| Guest22086 | okay lol | 18:57 |
| reisio | spillere: way to cross post :p | 18:57 |
| mjayk | holstein: the question was related to a user who was on 13.04 and said he installed via wubi, as you can tell the upgrade HAS been performed so backup options are pretty useless | 18:57 |
| wilee-nilee | devmedo, I'm not sure how to run it, I tried wubi a couple of years ago as many needed help, buthave not kept up with it. | 18:57 |
| kostkon | spillere, apt-cache policy photofilmstrip? what does it say? also check apt-cache policy videoporama | 18:57 |
| holstein | mjayk: so, whats the issue with the 13.04 install? | 18:57 |
| kostkon | spillere, oh you mean no gui right | 18:57 |
| devmedo | wilee-nilee : so there's alternative to wubi? | 18:58 |
| wilee-nilee | devmedo, For best help on it though stsrt a thread at the ubuntu forums with wubi in the header and bcbc will drop by your best helper in it. | 18:58 |
| devmedo | to make along side windows 7 | 18:58 |
| spillere | kostkon: yeah, only ssh into terminal :) | 18:58 |
| devmedo | wilee-nilee ; anyforu ms don't help | 18:58 |
| reisio | devmedo: yes there is | 18:58 |
| devmedo | reisio : plzz what? | 18:58 |
| holstein | mjayk: the upgrade obviously worked, and you are trying to see if the upgrade caused the issue? it could have, and not had anything to do with the wubi.. there is not enough information to say | 18:58 |
| blazemore | devmedo: The normal Ubuntu installer can resize your Windows partition and install Ubuntu into the newly created free space | 18:58 |
| reisio | devmedo: why not just install Ubuntu the normal way? | 18:58 |
| devmedo | when i come to step 3 and countinue and reboot and doesn't install!! | 18:59 |
| reisio | devmedo: the normal way that happens? | 18:59 |
| devmedo | yes | 18:59 |
| arc__ | i have put it on there http://askubuntu.com/questions/321990/packages-gone-in-upgrade | 18:59 |
| devmedo | and i've checked md5 | 18:59 |
| reisio | that sounds like a fundamental problem with your hardware and the installer, then | 18:59 |
| wolftune | so, I'm moving to a new computer, different particular make and model. Is there a reason to do somethign different than copying over my whole /home folder? Are there certain settings I might not want copied over? | 19:00 |
| reisio | basically no matter what installation process you use, it all ends up using the same scripts | 19:00 |
| wilee-nilee | devmedo, Yes the alongside is standard, however you really want to have a unallocated space first by using the windows partitioner the disk mange to resize windows. But there are limitations on types and amounts of partitions on a single HD, so to get to the matter directly boot the live cd take a screen shot of gparted and imagebin it. This is for a standard install not a wubi. | 19:00 |
| reisio | devmedo: what happens when you reboot? | 19:00 |
| holstein | wolftune: grab it all, and test.. and remove anything that becomes problematic | 19:00 |
| wolftune | holstein: so it'll be pretty safe? | 19:00 |
| devmedo | i have laptop hp pavilion g6-1151ex , core i5 , 4gb memory , 500gb hd + reisio : the windows starts | 19:00 |
| reisio | devmedo: course it does, that OS was installed by a professional who had that specific hardware in mind | 19:01 |
| wolftune | Any reason to hesitate like where I know things are different, such as the wireless drivers and vid drivers? Anything in /home touch those? | 19:01 |
| reisio | devmedo: so you install Ubuntu, reboot, and only Windows boots? | 19:01 |
| holstein | wolftune: it'll be as safe as it is.. the data is yours, so the safeness will be from you and the apps you run | 19:01 |
| Pandee | I am trying to install GASP for python, and some of the steps don't show up in my version of ubuntu. Can anyone hint to me where to look for the highlighted steps? http://pastebin.com/tWL7sBfx | 19:01 |
| devmedo | no ubuntu doesn't begain install | 19:01 |
| wolftune | holstein: I meant not really "safe" but like, avoiding bugginess | 19:01 |
| reisio | devmedo: you'll have to be more specific | 19:01 |
| devmedo | step 4 is the begain of installtion | 19:02 |
| wolftune | like maybe there's advantages to trying to be picky to be clean | 19:02 |
| holstein | wolftune: if you have "buginess", remove the config, a new one will spawn, and test | 19:02 |
| wolftune | but I'm pretty good, had no bugs before | 19:02 |
| saiarcot895 | Pandee: for step a, use the Start Menu/Dash and type in Software & Sources | 19:02 |
| wolftune | ok, better to do it that way than to try to guess one-by-one as I move things over | 19:02 |
| wolftune | thanks | 19:02 |
| devmedo | step 3 is the choose of replace windows 7 , instal inside windows 7 , and the third idon't remember | 19:02 |
| holstein | wolftune: i would just put them all over, and move out things that are problematic.. | 19:03 |
| reisio | devmedo: you'll have to be more specific :/ | 19:03 |
| devmedo | install^ | 19:03 |
| reisio | devmedo: "it doesn't work" is hard to debug | 19:03 |
| Pandee | saiarcot895: the only thing that comes up is the Ubuntu Software Center | 19:03 |
| reisio | you've got to say at what point it doesn't work, and how | 19:03 |
| saiarcot895 | Pandee: what version are you using? | 19:03 |
| Pandee | saiarcot895: 12.04 | 19:04 |

| Pandee | saiarcot895: LTS | 19:04 |
| devmedo | step 3 i'll gave you an example for it | 19:04 |
| reisio | devmedo: try the minimal install image, then | 19:04 |

| beni- | saiarcot895: the Software Center is only for Ubuntu-applications, right? So I could not put up binaries for other systems? And can I limit who can access my binaries? We have sales people who sell the application, and once the customer purchases they should get a login to such a software system. | 19:24 |
| devmedo | holstein not working!! | 19:24 |

| k1l_ | devmedo: why start over again? | 19:25 |
| k1l_ | i told you what the problem is | 19:25 |
| yeats | devmedo: there are many many web tutorials on this - a quick web search of "dual boot ubuntu and windows" will reveal them | 19:25 |
| holstein | devmedo: whats not working? shrinking the partition? | 19:25 |
| saiarcot895 | beni-: no, you cannot put up binaries for other systems there; the apps will be listed publically on the Ubuntu Software Center, so anyone who pays the price and buys it will have access | 19:25 |

| isiah_s | I am looing to run a program that generates an output file. I am concerned that the output file will be too large. I wish to limit how large the file can be to say 95% of available memory. So, if before the program started I had 100Gb unused, I would like to program to be killed once the output file reaches 95Gb. I am looking at ulimit for this, does anyone have a better suggestion? | 19:27 |
| devmedo | k1l_ sure?? | 19:27 |
| beni- | saiarcot895, kostkon: thanks, seems like the Ubuntu Software Center is not really what I'm looking for :-( | 19:27 |
| k1l_ | devmedo: but talk with the windows support for that windows related problem. that is not a ubuntu support issue | 19:27 |
| kostkon | wachpwnski, not yet, but soon http://ifdeflinux.blogspot.co.uk/2013/04/upstart-user-sessions-in-ubuntu-raring.html | 19:27 |

| kostkon | beni-, :/ | 19:27 |
| k1l_ | devmedo: no! | 19:27 |
| holstein | devmedo: sure, but its the windows setup that is preventing the installation | 19:27 |
| devmedo | I want ubuntu to work along side windows 7 | 19:28 |
| k1l_ | its the windows which ruins the PC for other OS. so its a windows problem. | 19:28 |
| wilee-nilee | devmedo, backup windows before you do anything. | 19:28 |
| holstein | devmedo: can you access the information about making your hard drive appropriately configured for the dual boot? | 19:28 |

| devmedo | how to change it without losing any fies | 19:29 |

| holstein | devmedo: most setups, you just click that option in the insatller, and it works | 19:29 |
| k1l_ | devmedo: read the links! | 19:29 |
| holstein | devmedo: no one can guarantee that.. that is why "back up your files" is suggested, in case you lose data | 19:29 |

| devmedo | wilee-nilee: yah no harmfull :"devmedo: please get the facts right " | 19:38 |
| holstein | devmedo: you are asking if you can have wireless in virtualization, and the answer, as stated is, you pass the networking of the host OS to the guest | 19:38 |
| devmedo | holstein : how ? | 19:39 |
| holstein | devmedo: i use virtualbox, and i use the GUI menu for "networking" to pass the networking connection of the host to the guest | 19:39 |
| wilee-nilee | devmedo, That does not harm, I will just put you back in ignore where you belong. | 19:39 |

| holstein | devmedo: please stay on topic, or go to #ubuntu-offtopic.. thanks | 19:41 |
| devmedo | holstein : mm , i'll download it it and see | 19:41 |
| isiah_s | demedo: if you want to attach a VM to network interface it will depend on what virtualization manager you use. I use libivrt a great deal and what the guides recommend is you create what is called a virtual bridge. To the outside world the VM will have its own ip and mac address making it effectively as real as any stand-alone physical computer. | 19:41 |
| m_tadeu | I'm having trought setting distcc to work...it's not finding other hosts. does anyone know why? | 19:41 |
| devmedo | holstein: does i said no harmfull ? no , wilee-nilee.... | 19:41 |
| holstein | devmedo: you are welcome to review the /topic ..thanks for your patience and consideration of the guideline and other volunteers | 19:42 |
| isiah_s | devmedo: for example I am on a VM right now running on a computer that is connected over wireless. This chat client is running that way. | 19:43 |
| daurnimator | How can one publish a package compiled with different flags? | 19:43 |
| devmedo | isiah_s : i know but ubuntu gets it with a virtual lan , no i need a real wifi | 19:43 |
| holstein | devmedo: you need a network connection, and you can get that.. you can get a "real" IP with the bridged connection | 19:44 |
| devmedo | shortly i want to try my wifi to see it can be hacked or not | 19:45 |
| holstein | devmedo: try a security channel for that, please | 19:45 |
| devmedo | nono , the topic here is not the hacking | 19:45 |
| devmedo | the topic about making guest os ( ubuntu ) recives wifi | 19:46 |
| holstein | daurnimator: what do you mean by "publish" ? | 19:46 |
| isiah_s | I dont suppose anyone knows how to set the physical memory ouse by a process that is run by root? I am a little stuck on this one | 19:46 |
| holstein | devmedo: recieves networking* | 19:46 |
| holstein | devmedo: you can always run the distro from a live CD or USB stick | 19:46 |
| devmedo | not understanding , i mean when i connect to ubuntu the shown in ubuntu is lan not wifi | 19:47 |
| daurnimator | holstein: as in have in a ppa/eventually get into main repos | 19:47 |
| devmedo | holstein : as we said i have problem with hardware confing | 19:47 |
| holstein | daurnimator: create a PPA, but i would go upstream to debian to get it in the repos | 19:47 |
| devmedo | so ican't make ubuntu in my computer along side | 19:47 |
| holstein | devmedo: you dont need to. you can install to a USB stick, or run the distro live from USB | 19:48 |
| daurnimator | holstein: what I'm really asking is: theres a program currently in the repos; but I (+ my users) need it with a different set of compile time flags; would it be against the rules to have 2 variants of the one program in the official repos? | 19:48 |
| devmedo | holstein : i'm taking myself to don't make harmfull words hhhhhh , in live one when i go to this step http://assets.ubuntu.com/sites/ubuntu/511/u/img/download/desktop-1204-install-4.jpg and click countine the laptop reboots , and windows starts | 19:49 |
| k1l_ | devmedo: we had that part, didnt we?# | 19:49 |
| holstein | daurnimator: not sure.. i would ask in a dev channel.. i think as long as the names are different for the PPA, it should work and you can test | 19:49 |
| OerHeks | devmedo, sounds like a flaky download, did you check the iso? | 19:49 |
| devmedo | yah i checked md5 | 19:49 |
| holstein | devmedo: *dont* *install* the os.. just use it live | 19:50 |
| devmedo | holstein : can i use it live with installing some programes? | 19:50 |
| k1l_ | OerHeks: its his windows dynamic disks that are not comaptible | 19:50 |
| holstein | devmedo: or, use a different destination to install, such as a USB drive or USB stick | 19:50 |
| holstein | devmedo: yes | 19:50 |
| devmedo | i tried DVD and USB | 19:50 |
| holstein | devmedo: you can install into the live session, or create persistence, or install to USB or a USB hard drive | 19:50 |
| k1l_ | devmedo: not installing! | 19:50 |
| OerHeks | ah, maybe windows is in Fastboot. or dynamic disk, that could be it, k1l_ | 19:50 |
| k1l_ | devmedo: you cant use your harddisks as long as they are dynamic windows things | 19:51 |
| holstein | but, as was suggested, you could install to a USB stick or another drive | 19:51 |
| k1l_ | devmedo: that was explained 10 times now to you. stop asking that again | 19:51 |
| anonee | hello everyone | 19:51 |
| devmedo | k1l_ firstly i didn't ask , i asked how to make wifi in guest os in vm | 19:52 |
| devmedo | see the history | 19:52 |
| k1l_ | devmedo: no, you did ask again. | 19:52 |
| devmedo | ( when i was told ) | 19:52 |
| holstein | devmedo: you dont do that.. you dont "make wifi in guest" in vm.. you just share the networking of the host OS | 19:52 |
| holstein | devmedo: you dont have to install the OS in VM or on the machine.. you can just run it live.. *not* installing *anything* | 19:53 |
| devmedo | how to make wifi work " not virtual lan " | 19:53 |
| wachpwnski | kostkon: what is a good way I can start a process as a specified user on boot? cron? | 19:53 |
| Phoenix1969 | aloha.... got a Q: Ububtu 13.01 just installed.. When I choose to boot ubuntu on the bios, I get this: http://i.imgur.com/b7yVmlP.jpg | 19:53 |
| devmedo | holstein : it's so slow in live | 19:53 |
| anonee | devmedo just right-click the USB devices icon in vbox guest window and the wifi will go to the guest | 19:53 |
| holstein | devmedo: you dont, friend.. that *is* your network. you bridge the connect and get a real IP | 19:53 |
| OerHeks | devmedo, if your host is using Wifi, your "virtual lan" uses that wifi too. | 19:53 |
| guntbert | devmedo: virtualization software doesn't present "real hardware" to the guest, I know of non that would present a wireless interface | 19:53 |
| k1l_ | devmedo: either you make the suggested solutions or you keep it live without installing | 19:53 |
| holstein | devmedo: if you want to do penetration testing, you'll want a native solution.. such as the live CD.. or a specific live penetration testing OS | 19:53 |
| holstein | devmedo: you can do a lot of testing on your network from inside VM with a real network IP.. from a live CD.. which is a known compromise in speed | 19:54 |
| devmedo | i'll try live cd , thank you | 19:55 |
| holstein | devmedo: try a live CD for a penetration OS if thats what you want... kali linux or whatever.. that is not supported here | 19:55 |
| devmedo | holstein : what do you mean? | 19:56 |
| anonee | kl1 can you please explain this to me? remember the icon I tried everything to change, it finally changed by itself after 3 or 4 reboots, how can you explain that? is there an icon cash for ubuntu just like in windows? and why does all other icons refresh immediately like for example when I installed faenza icon pack or manually change an icon... any ideas? | 19:56 |
| holstein | devmedo: just what i said, friend | 19:56 |
| devmedo | i'll install aircrack-ng | 19:56 |
| holstein | devmedo: its an if statement, so if the if statement applies to you, check it out | 19:56 |
| holstein | devmedo: this is not a penetration testing support channel or OS.. | 19:57 |
| wachpwnski | what is a good pastebin cli tool? | 19:57 |
| devmedo | holstein : can i install software in live cd ? | 19:57 |

| tga2 | greetings | 19:57 |
| Pici | wachpwnski: pastebinit | 19:57 |
| guntbert | !pastebinit | wachpwnski | 19:57 |
| ubottu | wachpwnski: pastebinit is the command-line equivalent of !pastebin - Command output, or other text can be redirected to pastebinit, which then reports an URL containing the output - To use pastebinit, install the Ā« pastebinit Ā» package from a package manager - Simple usage: command | pastebinit -b http://paste.ubuntu.com | 19:57 |

| tga2 | does anyone have any suggestions of things to try? | 19:58 |
| holstein | devmedo: as i said, yes.. you can install software into the live enviroment | 19:58 |
| tga2 | it starts connecting to the network and then just disconnects | 19:58 |
| isiah_s | tga2: was it working at any given point? | 19:58 |
| tga2 | isiah_s, first time booting ubuntu on this laptop, a Samsung 5 series | 19:59 |
| holstein | devmedo: try not to ask the same questions over.. if you need to, refer back to the channel history | 19:59 |
| tga2 | I did try some of the module options I found on forums, but no magical solution | 19:59 |
| devmedo | holstein : ok... | 19:59 |
| isiah_s | tga2: ok, if you run it over ethernet does it function? | 19:59 |
| guntbert | devmedo: if you want to install software and keep it a USB (with persistence) is the solution | 19:59 |
| tga2 | isiah_s, IĀ“m on ethernet now, how does that help with wifi | 20:00 |
| tga2 | isiah_s, ethernet is a rtl, works fine | 20:00 |

| tga2 | oh, ok | 20:00 |
| anonee | lol | 20:01 |
| holstein | devmedo: are you having trouble understanding the term "persistence" ? it allows changes made to your live environment "persist" | 20:01 |
| tga2 | connection is fine, the card works, sees the networks, but when I try to connect to wpa2 it does things for a while then stops | 20:01 |
| isiah_s | tga2: can you ping your local host? in the command like type ping 127.0.0.1 | 20:01 |
| tga2 | yeah, like I said, I`m on ethernet now | 20:01 |
| holstein | devmedo: if you install into the live CD or usb, and reboot, those chages are gone.. persistence would make thos changes persist | 20:01 |

| devmedo | holstein: i don't want it persistence | 20:01 |
| isiah_s | tga2: create a second ifcfg for wifi | 20:01 |
| guntbert | devmedo: do as you please - but when using a live CD (as opposed to a live USB with persistence) you will have to install/configure the software every time you boot | 20:02 |
| devmedo | ok | 20:02 |
| holstein | devmedo: then, as it is also an if statement, if you dont want it, dont use it | 20:02 |
| anonee | k1l_ sorry if i bothered you | 20:02 |
| devmedo | ok thank you all , i'll try | 20:02 |

| k1l_ | Phoenix1969: there is something wrong with your wubi install | 20:04 |
| guntbert | !askthebot > suigeneris | 20:04 |
| ubottu | suigeneris, please see my private message | 20:04 |
| k1l_ | Phoenix1969: but wubi is hard to support. i dont know if anyone knows an answer to this but in general we recommend to make a native intsall | 20:05 |
| tga2 | hmm, how do I get some logs out of networkmanager? | 20:05 |
| tga2 | it just tries the network for a while then gives up, it would be useful to know what it's doing | 20:05 |
| Phoenix1969 | agreed...trying a desktop extraction install... | 20:05 |
| anonee | k1l_ but i'm curious, why did it take as much reboots.. it doesn't matter anyway if the answer is difficult for me, thank you all anyway. | 20:06 |

| g3org3s | hey all, how do i remove the camera drivers/disable it for good on ubuntu? it autoinstalled when i was setting up ubuntu | 20:07 |
| reisio | g3org3s: could blacklist the module/s | 20:07 |
| reisio | g3org3s: lsmod, probably has 'uvc' in its name | 20:07 |
| Phoenix1969 | it was not there, correct....doing another install | 20:07 |
| MichaelP | when Mir is shiped with the next release. How is it going to be with ati proprietary drivers ? | 20:07 |
| blazemore | Hi g3org3s - Can you please paste the result of running the command "lsmod" onto http://paste.ubuntu.com and then give me the URL? Thanks | 20:07 |
| reisio | MichaelP: let me find my crystal ball | 20:08 |
| guntbert | suigeneris: we usually only invoke ubottu to specific onformation to a person, if we want to investigate and try things we do it in a private message with her | 20:08 |
| blazemore | MichaelP: Are AMD writing drivers for mir? | 20:08 |
| g3org3s | reisio it has uvcvideo on 3 lines. how can i blacklist it ? | 20:08 |
| k1l_ | MichaelP: lets fokus on existing issues in here. #ubuntu-mir or #ubuntu+1 for that topic would be better :) | 20:09 |
| reisio | g3org3s: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist | 20:09 |
| reisio | g3org3s: blacklist modulenamehere | 20:09 |
| MichaelP | blazemore: don't know thats why i was wondering if proprietary drivers was going to work with it. | 20:09 |

| joshu | ikonia hi again | 20:10 |
| mjayk | OerHeks: is that for sure ? | 20:10 |
| zorael | What's the CLI tool with which you add/remove loopback dev nodes? | 20:10 |
| ikonia | joshu: hello | 20:10 |
| suigeneris | why is apt-get ignoring the ppa? | 20:10 |
| OerHeks | mjayk, see http://fridge.ubuntu.com/2013/06/27/mir-plans-in-13-10/ | 20:10 |
| reisio | zorael: mount? | 20:10 |
| k1l_ | suigeneris: did you set it up proberly? | 20:11 |
| guntbert | suigeneris: did you sudo apt-get update afterwards? | 20:11 |
| zorael | reisio: No, I mean adding dev nodes if there aren't enough /dev/loop*, or assigning a block file to such a node | 20:11 |
| tga2 | so it looks like my card authenticates with the router, then goes 'authenticating by local choice' right away | 20:11 |
| * tga2 digs some more | 20:11 | |
| reisio | zorael: sounds like udev magick | 20:12 |
| suigeneris | guntbert: update is ignoring it | 20:12 |
| suigeneris | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair | 20:12 |
| suigeneris | I'm doing this | 20:12 |
| g3org3s | reisio i have: 1)videobuf2-core used by uvcvideo,videobuf2_core, 2)videobuf2_vmalloc used by uvcvideo, 3) videodev used by uvcvideo,videobuf2_core ... which one to blacklist ? | 20:12 |
| reisio | g3org3s: uvcvideo alone would probably manage it | 20:12 |
| zorael | reisio: Found it; losetup | 20:12 |
| reisio | zorael: ah, gj | 20:13 |
| g3org3s | reisio but i have no module called uvcvideo :s | 20:13 |

| nightdrever | Hi, I have windows 7 and ubuntu duel boot, http://imgbin.org/index.php?page=image&id=14555 id like to reinstall windows without affecting ubuntu (and if possible move ubuntu to start of drive) is it possible if so how? | 20:13 |
| urmysony | Hi Guys | 20:14 |
| urmysony | m running ubuntu 13.10 | 20:14 |
| ikonia | urmysony: #ubuntu+1 channel please | 20:14 |
| reisio | hi | 20:14 |
| joshu | ikonia the lubuntu option you mentioned earlier today. wasn't clear on how and if possible I would be able to 1) update the OS remotely as if it was a "firmware image" and 2) how I would be able to update/ push or pull configuration changes | 20:14 |
| reisio | g3org3s: try it | 20:14 |
| reisio | nightdrever: yes | 20:14 |
| urmysony | @inkonia Thanks | 20:14 |
| ikonia | nightdrever: you can't move ubuntu to the start - windows wants to be the first partition for it's 200mb private partition, and it will need the boot sector re-installing | 20:14 |
| reisio | nightdrever: playing with partitions is not 100% safe, though, so you should make a backup first | 20:15 |
| k1l_ | suigeneris: can you show the whole output from the terminal in a pastebin? | 20:15 |
| suigeneris | guntbert: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5891935/ | 20:15 |
| suigeneris | k1l_ too | 20:15 |
| nightdrever | ok how do i delete windows and reinstall then without effecting ubuntu? | 20:15 |
| g3org3s | reisio blacklist command not found | 20:15 |
| k1l_ | suigeneris: with the commands you added the ppa | 20:15 |
| ikonia | joshu: ok, so as an "image" it's not going to happen unless you netboot it, and configuration managing is up to you, sync configuration files, use a configuration tool like puppet etc, many options | 20:15 |
| reisio | g3org3s: it's a line you put into the file I mentioned | 20:15 |
| reisio | g3org3s: then reboot | 20:15 |
| celroc | ikonia: I'm not sure, but I don't think Windows needs the first partition, actually. On my machine, it's the second or third partition | 20:16 |
| suigeneris | sudo add-apt-repository ppa:yannubuntu/boot-repair && sudo apt-get update | 20:16 |
| k1l_ | suigeneris: "Hit http://ppa.launchpad.net lucid Release" | 20:16 |
| g3org3s | reisio ah sry will do that thanks ^^ | 20:16 |
| k1l_ | there it is | 20:16 |
| ikonia | celroc: it makes a temporary small 200mb partition, that it likes to be the first partition on the primary disk | 20:16 |
| suigeneris | k1l_: but boot-repair is being ignored | 20:16 |
| guntbert | k1l_: he was talking about the next one, which is indeed "Ign" | 20:17 |
| k1l_ | suigeneris: it doesnt name the PPA by its own | 20:17 |
| suigeneris | Ign http://ppa.launchpad.net/yannubuntu/boot-repair/ubuntu/ lucid/main Translation-en_US | 20:17 |
| suigeneris | k1l_: | 20:17 |
| celroc | ikonia: Huh. I've had Windows installed on my second partition for quite a while now without any problems that I remember | 20:17 |
| ikonia | celroc: the actual install can be anywhere | 20:17 |
| joshu | ikonia ok so updating the OS would either have to be via say a USB stick which replaces the current OS install, or via the OS's own updating mechanism | 20:18 |
| OerHeks | suigeneris, no bootrepair in that PPA >>> https://launchpad.net/~yannubuntu/+archive/boot-repair and lucid desktop is EOL | 20:18 |
| k1l_ | suigeneris: what does "sudo apt-get install -y boot-repair" give you? | 20:18 |
| ikonia | joshu: basically using the OS update tool, from a repository of some sort, yes | 20:18 |
| k1l_ | OerHeks: ah well, didnt think of that easy one | 20:18 |
| celroc | ikonia: Right, but I think I've had a Linux partition already set up as my first partition when I installed Windows, and it didn't seem to have a problem | 20:19 |
| suigeneris | k1l_: Couldn't find package boot-repair | 20:19 |
| ikonia | celroc: there are ways around it, but it does not like the 200mb partition not being the first partition | 20:19 |
| suigeneris | OerHeks: I'm tryying to re-install grub | 20:19 |
| k1l_ | suigeneris: see OerHeks lucid is out of support for the desktop and the PPA doesnt have any package for lucis | 20:20 |
| celroc | ikonia: Hmm, Ok. I'm sorry, I'll stop bothering you about it | 20:20 |
| ikonia | celroc: no need for sorry | 20:20 |
| suigeneris | oh that's why | 20:20 |
| ikonia | celroc: valid comments | 20:20 |
| celroc | ikonia: ;-) Thanks | 20:20 |
| k1l_ | suigeneris: if that is a dektop you really should considering going to a supported release | 20:21 |
| tga2 | [ 1782.584391] wlan0: deauthenticating from <router> by local choice (reason=3) | 20:21 |
| celroc | ikonia: If it's any help, I think I had to (re?)install Windows 7 a while back. All I really did was format the previous NTFS (WinXP) partition and tell it to install. It worked without a hitch as far as I can tell | 20:21 |
| tga2 | it looks like my card connects to the router and actually works for a bit, then just deauthenticates | 20:22 |
| joshu | ikonia the thin client project as I explained earlier..you seem very knowledgable about Ubuntu. Is it something you're capable of doing? | 20:22 |
| ikonia | celroc: I don't know how that will make / have an impact | 20:22 |
| tga2 | any hints on how to fix this? | 20:22 |
| ikonia | joshu: errr with effort yes, but I'd look at other options too such as netbooting the OS with local persistance for example, which really would be a thin client, lots of options with pros/cons | 20:23 |
| celroc | ikonia: I don't remember any real issue with the partitions (I think I already had my Linux partitions set up, unless I'm mistaken). It didn't seem to throw any errors/problems that I can remember | 20:24 |
| joshu | ikonia is this something we could discuss more in private with compensation of course? | 20:24 |
| ikonia | joshu: I think you've not %100 thought out your approach and missed a few things which would need to be addressed then it will narrow down your options a bit more, and move forward from there | 20:24 |
| suigeneris | k1l_: I'm on 13.04 and trying to re-install grub because I lost it | 20:24 |
| ikonia | joshu: I'll discuss it a bit more in private sure, but I'm not looking for money | 20:24 |
| ikonia | celroc: where did it put the 200mb partition | 20:25 |
| k1l_ | suigeneris: your system says its lucid | 20:25 |
| k1l_ | or is it an old stick/cd you are using? | 20:25 |
| celroc | ikonia: Um.... I really don't remember if it even prompted me about it. Although, now I'm wondering if my memory is wrong and if I did have to give my first partition the temporary axe.... | 20:26 |
| suigeneris | k1l_: I'm on livecd | 20:26 |
| ikonia | celroc: it has to have one...... | 20:26 |
| joshu | ikonia what is more convenient for you, PM, Skype or something else? | 20:26 |
| celroc | ikonia: I must be mistaken, then. Or my memory is wrong | 20:26 |
| thufir | I installed xubuntu-desktop --- how do I get to a GUI desktop now? I have a text console only. | 20:27 |
| ikonia | joshu: do you want to talk "now" ? | 20:27 |
| reisio | thufir: reboot? | 20:27 |
| ikonia | celroc: who knows | 20:27 |
| joshu | if possible | 20:27 |
| thufir | reisio: I did | 20:27 |
| reisio | thufir: service lightdm start ? | 20:27 |
| guntbert | suigeneris: in that case the best approach would be to download a Boot repair ISO and boot from that | 20:27 |
| k1l_ | suigeneris: no bootrepais for lucid. but you can use the "oldfashioned" methods: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows | 20:27 |
| thufir | reisio: ahhh, forgot about lightdm. | 20:27 |
| ikonia | joshu: pm me and we can have a short chat, then work out if any more is needed | 20:27 |
| cipherboy | Hey, so I think this should be obvious to me, but it isn't... Say I set a custom PATH in a bashrc script. I can then run commands from that new path, say they are located in ~/bin. which <command only in ~/bin> returns nothing. How do I change that? | 20:29 |
| thufir | xubuntu-desktop is xfce? | 20:29 |
| reisio | thufir: yes | 20:29 |
| thufir | thnaks | 20:29 |

| thufir | I have an older monitor and need to do something weird, I think, with creating a file /etc/X/...(?) to set the resolution. | 20:30 |

| wilee-nilee | suigeneris, Yes | 20:34 |

| k1l_ | suigeneris: 12.04 is the last one you can get | 20:36 |
| celroc | cipherboy: I haven't really used the Which command much, but it looks like you might want to set the PATH variable in your shell as well | 20:36 |
| eedfwchris | Hey guysā¦ why would this UFW rule not allow incoming ssh connections on 22 (eth1 is public)? http://pastie.org/private/mm7cfnu0dwoxtge2gzynzg | 20:37 |
| cipherboy | celroc: meaning? env lists the modified PATH. | 20:37 |
| === mjayk is now known as mJ[away]k | ||
| celroc | cipherboy: Oh. Well, I see you've already done that. | 20:38 |
| cipherboy | However, the `which` command, isn't detecting it, causing scripts to break occasionally. | 20:38 |
| trism | cipherboy: do you actually have ~/local/bin in the path, or the full path? | 20:38 |
| cipherboy | No, full /home/cipherboy/local/bin | 20:39 |
| trism | cipherboy: I notice if it is using the ~ character bash can find it but which can't | 20:39 |
| trism | cipherboy: oh don't know then, it is working fine here | 20:39 |
| cipherboy | trism: Odd. echo $PATH listed it, restarted lightdm and it worked. | 20:41 |
| celroc | cipherboy: Hmm.... maybe it's one of those things where the user needs to log out of that session for the change to take effect? | 20:42 |
| cipherboy | celroc: Usually doesn't work like that... First time I have put things in home directory, but usually when I add other paths it works. Must have been a glitch. | 20:42 |
| Jordan_U | cipherboy: Is the path you were trying to add /home/cipherboy/local/bin or /home/cipherboy/bin? | 20:47 |
| cipherboy | Jordan_U: local one. | 20:48 |
| Jordan_U | cipherboy: When you first joined your example was ~/bin/, and Ubuntu's .profile is configured to add ~/bin/ to $PATH at login (and only at login) if it exists, so if you created ~/bin/ then logged out and back in again it would make sense for binaries in ~/bin/ to now be found. | 20:50 |
| cipherboy | Jordan_U: Ah, sorry, whoops. | 20:51 |
| cipherboy | ~/bin was added earlier and works, but ~/local/bin wasn't working for whatever reason. | 20:51 |
| thufir | I had to boot into safemode (root) after installing lightdm. can I remove lightdm from safemode? | 20:51 |
| Jordan_U | thufir: Yes, just "apt-get remove lightdm". lightdm is installed by default though, why were you needing to install it in the first place? | 20:52 |
| thufir | Jordan_U: to get xubuntu-desktop to work. after I get a graphical login screen I put in my password but get kicked out the graphical login again. From past experience with this monitor, I need to make some setting in /etc/X/... to set the resolution (low) I think. (it's a new computer) | 20:53 |
| thufir | I can't remove lightdm from safemode because the filesystem isn't read/write. how can I get a root console with read/write to the filesystem? | 20:57 |
| thufir | I'm in safemode | 20:57 |
| explodes | thufir: Boot Live CD and go into Rescue Mode | 20:58 |
| explodes | Fill out the basics and then hit escape | 20:58 |
| explodes | Choose "find hard disks" and "find disk drives" | 20:58 |
| explodes | then choose "Open shell" | 20:58 |
| thufir | explodes: I don't have a live cd, I have a thumb drive with 13.04 server version. | 20:58 |
| explodes | that works | 20:58 |
| explodes | I literally did this 2 hours ago | 20:58 |
| explodes | w/ 13.04 server | 20:58 |
| explodes | boot onto that | 20:59 |
| explodes | and follow what I said. You'll get a shell w/ root | 20:59 |
| thufir | but I want to boot into the system I installed to remove lightdm. | 20:59 |
| explodes | you can from the shell | 20:59 |
| thufir | I looked at the grub entries in rescuemode but wasn't sure how to get to text mode | 21:00 |

| kmyst | anybody know about routing different networks? | 21:13 |
| Zouavman | https://launchpad.net/~minecraft-installer-peeps/+archive/minecraft-installer | 21:13 |
| Dr_willis | install the installer? Download make it executable and run it? | 21:13 |
| Zouavman | Dr_willis, That's the link I'm looking for on launchpad | 21:14 |
| Dr_willis | oh its a pps. | 21:14 |
| Dr_willis | ppa | 21:14 |
| Zouavman | I just don't get it, you'd think the download link would be obvious, yeah? | 21:14 |
| Dr_willis | You can update your system with unsupported packages from this untrusted PPA by adding ppa:minecraft-installer-peeps/minecraft-installer to your system's Software Sources. (Read about installing) | 21:14 |
| Zouavman | Dr_willis, would you say that's a pretty dumb idea since the thing is not trusted yeah? | 21:14 |
| Dr_willis | You add the 'ppa' to your systems list of sources. then use the package manager tools to install what you want from the ppa | 21:14 |
| Dr_willis | Zouavman, ppa's are used all the time. they are by definition not officially supported here. | 21:15 |

| Dr_willis | then sudo apt-get update, sudo apt-get upgrade , then sudo apt-get install minecraft-installer | 21:16 |
| Dr_willis | then you run minecraft-installer | 21:17 |
| Zouavman | K I just did the first one sudo add-apt-repository ppa:...., what next? | 21:18 |
| Zouavman | Dr_willis, thanks btw for all yer help dawg | 21:18 |
| Dr_willis | look at the commands i gave above... | 21:18 |
| Dr_willis | update, upgrade, install, run the thang | 21:18 |
| Zouavman | oh cool, just "sudo apt-get update" works? | 21:19 |

| assadsdfsd | can anyone give me an idea of what this error means? EXT4-fs (sda1): ext4_orphan_cleanup: deleting unreferenced inode | 21:38 |
| assadsdfsd | is refering to the hard drive or ram? | 21:38 |
| saintcajetan | Alright pretty much I want to be able to have access to the software I had paid for in the ubuntu store, what is the website where I can retrieve my password if I lost the account? | 21:39 |
| Dr_willis | sounds like some sort of filesystem curruption on sda1 | 21:39 |
| saintcajetan | I dont think its the same as the ubuntu forum, not sure because there was several different things. | 21:39 |
| Dr_willis | assadsdfsd, id be fscking that filesystem to see if any errors get corrected | 21:39 |
| saintcajetan | There was Ubuntu one and who knows what else I signed up for >.< | 21:39 |
| assadsdfsd | Dr_willis: well its a fresh install of the OS, disk ulity shows the drive to be perfect health, maybe the (ssd) is bad? | 21:39 |
| Dr_willis | assadsdfsd, that dosent mean the filesystem does not have some curruption. | 21:40 |
| Dr_willis | Disk can be good.. fs has issues. | 21:40 |
| Dr_willis | fsck it and see. | 21:40 |
| assadsdfsd | Dr_willis: fsck? how to I do that? command? | 21:40 |
| wilee-nilee | saintcajetan, Might ask at #ubuntuone | 21:40 |
| Dr_willis | !fsck | 21:40 |
| ubottu | fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo touch /forcefsck && sudo shutdown -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot | 21:40 |
| assadsdfsd | Just run "fsck" naked in the terminal? | 21:41 |
| Dr_willis | you do NOT fsck a filesystem thats in use/mounted read/write - i always use a live-cd for fscking my system. | 21:41 |
| assadsdfsd | Okay, i'll run a live usb, can you give me the full command to use? | 21:41 |

| g3org3s | anyone knows how can i exit nano on french keyboard ? | 21:51 |
| Dr_willis | ctrl-x or ctrl-o would be my guess | 21:52 |
| euxneks | what is the default window decorator for unity? | 21:52 |
| Dr_willis | should show the keycoded at the bottom | 21:52 |
| Dr_willis | euxneks, that would be the gtk-decorator i belve. since theres only like 2 decorators for compiz to use. | 21:52 |
| g3org3s | Dr_willis lol thanks its writeen ^X .... confusing | 21:52 |
| Dr_willis | or do you mean what THEME is it using | 21:53 |
| euxneks | Dr_willis, thanks | 21:53 |
| Dr_willis | g3kk3r, ^ = control key | 21:53 |
| euxneks | no I want to make a theme | 21:53 |
| Dr_willis | one of the many reasons i feel nano should be replaced | 21:53 |
| Dr_willis | euxneks, so i dont get what you are asking then. | 21:54 |
| euxneks | Dr_willis, you answered my question :) I want to make a theme for window decorations and I needed to know what the default window decorator was for unity and ubuntu | 21:54 |
| Dr_willis | its for COMPIZ | 21:55 |
| euxneks | oh, really? | 21:55 |
| euxneks | oh that's awesome | 21:55 |
| Dr_willis | compiz uses the gtk-decorator , theres also emerald and the qt-decorator i recall. | 21:55 |
| Dr_willis | but the gtk-decorator uses gtk themes | 21:55 |

| runnyspot | i'm trying to find directories called tmpxxx in the /tmp directory. `find /tmp/ -maxdepth 1 -type d -name tmp\*` also returns /tmp in addition to the directories i'm looking for | 22:13 |
| runnyspot | how can i prevent it from returning itself? | 22:13 |
| runnyspot | find /tmp/* -maxdepth 0 -type d -name tmp\* | 22:13 |
| runnyspot | i guess is the best soln | 22:13 |
| Jordan_U | runnyspot: find /tmp/ -maxdepth 1 -type d -name 'tmp???' | 22:14 |
| Jordan_U | runnyspot: Depending on what your goal is you could also use simply "echo /tmp/tmp*/" . | 22:15 |
| Jordan_U | runnyspot: What is your end goal? | 22:16 |
| runnyspot | cron to delete folders in tmp directory that are left behind | 22:16 |
| euxneks | ok, so I need to convert an emerald theme into something I can use in ubuntu 13.04 | 22:17 |
| euxneks | well, "need" I suppose is subjective | 22:17 |

| euxneks | the window theme? | 22:21 |
| wachpwnski | i think it's in shared or something | 22:22 |
| Jordan_U | runnyspot: "rmdir /tmp/tmp*/" (which will only remove empty directories). | 22:22 |
| wachpwnski | What is the best practice to run something at startup as a user? | 22:25 |
| wachpwnski | cron job? | 22:25 |
| bossman759 | Can't you set it as a start up program or are you trying to do something different? wachpwnski | 22:27 |
| wachpwnski | bossman759: i am on ubuntu server | 22:27 |
| bossman759 | oh ok | 22:27 |
| bossman759 | cron job sounds like a good idea | 22:27 |
| wachpwnski | when the server starts up I want it to start up a program with dtach | 22:27 |
| Pricey | wachpwnski: a '@reboot' crontab line seems good for that | 22:28 |
| bossman759 | yeah I'm pretty sure a cron job could do that | 22:28 |
| wachpwnski | if I want it to run as that user | 22:29 |
| Raydiation | Pricey: im on archlinux | 22:29 |
| Raydiation | no manpages for debian stuff | 22:29 |

| Pricey | Raydiation: You're in #ubuntu :( | 22:30 |

I have a relatively new laptop. the webcam works fine, but i wanted to know what kind it was. i tried listing with: lshw,lsusb,lspci (all grepping "cam") but nothing listed.

| Raydiation | napc: http://askubuntu.com/questions/31618/how-can-i-find-my-hardware-details | 22:33 |
| Raydiation | also some command i cant remember, something with bios in it i think | 22:33 |
| Raydiation | ah right, i was wrong: dmidecode | 22:34 |
| napc | forgot... tried that one too... | 22:35 |

| napc | always another command to learn/know | 22:42 |
| varunendra | napc, usb-devices is not universal though. I think it only works on some distros like Ubuntu. Same goes for lshw. | 22:44 |

| quuxman | whoever: I missed the reference. I'm reading https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/XKB right now. I will have the ultimate keyboard layout soon!!! | 23:19 |

| Phoenix1969 | ill try that | 23:20 |
| holstein | Phoenix1969: if you want to dual boot, remove that wubi install | 23:20 |
| madez | Hello everbody. How can I include a kernelmodule into initramfs? | 23:20 |
| Phoenix1969 | how? delete the ubuntu folder on c drive? | 23:20 |
| quuxman | how does XKB relate to xmodmap? | 23:21 |
| Phoenix1969 | or choose the uninstall wubi | 23:21 |
| wilee-nilee | Phoenix1969, control panel add remove softwaree | 23:21 |
| Phoenix1969 | k | 23:21 |
| holstein | Phoenix1969: its removable as an appliction.. but, you should be seeing grub at boot, if you did a dual boot setup | 23:21 |
| whoever | quuxman: ok, are we making progress | 23:21 |
| whoever | quuxman: are you sure there isn't a plug in already that does ths | 23:22 |
| Phoenix1969 | the grub shows, but goes straight to error when choose ubuntu | 23:22 |
| holstein | Phoenix1969: you are showing a windows boot loader there | 23:22 |
| holstein | Phoenix1969: you should have grub.. and will, if you do a proper dual boot setup | 23:23 |
| quuxman | whoever: yeah sure. I just have to read the docs on XKB. It makes the xmodmap system obsolete, and is not actually capable of making one key behave as two different modifiers, but XKB easily can do that | 23:23 |
| quuxman | er, I mean xmodmap is not capable of that | 23:23 |
| Phoenix1969 | just uninstalled from programs& features, now what? | 23:23 |
| Phoenix1969 | try reboot? | 23:23 |
| quuxman | apparently everybody still uses xmodmap because it's entrenched and simpler | 23:23 |
| holstein | Phoenix1969: set up the dual boot.. install ubuntu, or if you have already installed it, restore grub | 23:24 |
| Phoenix1969 | or install from cd? | 23:24 |
| DarthExpeditor | I expanded a FAT16 partition on a thumb drive but when I try to copy files to it I still get the disk full error | 23:24 |
| holstein | Phoenix1969: if you havent.. install from cd or usb.. or dvd.. or whatever | 23:24 |
| Phoenix1969 | was done before, should i do again, or try the boot fixer cd? | 23:25 |
| holstein | Phoenix1969: try whatever fits the scnario we discussed | 23:25 |
| holstein | Phoenix1969: if you have installed, then restore grub | 23:25 |
| holstein | Phoenix1969: if you havent.. install the OS | 23:25 |

| meow | sups peoples. :) I just installed xubuntu on a dying PC, and once in a while it keeps "screen of death"-ing | 23:26 |
| Phoenix1969 | ill be trying right now...bb soon...wish me luck...lol | 23:26 |
| meow | I suspect it's because it's overheating, but I'm wondering if one could find out | 23:26 |
| meow | what causes the computer to freeze & shut down | 23:27 |
| DarthExpeditor | I expanded a FAT16 partition on a thumb drive but when I try to copy files to it I still get the disk full error | 23:27 |
| meow | Anyone remotely interested in solving this mystery? | 23:27 |
| bekks | DarthExpeditor: How large are the files? | 23:28 |
| meow | #xubuntu | 23:28 |
| whoever | quuxman: did you get my last post | 23:29 |
| holstein | meow: linux wont fix the hardware. i would test the basics.. memory, and the hard drive | 23:29 |

| kickit2 | hello everyone - is it possible to do installs via pxe and NFS (to the local drive). Everything I find refers to 10.04 or older and it seems that something has changed as it will not accept the local server (ive tried ftp, http, and nfs) as a source complainging of a missing file from a /tmp dir | 23:30 |
| bekks | DarthExpeditor: thats too big for FAT16. | 23:30 |
| kickit2 | btw - attempting to install 12.04lts | 23:30 |
| DarthExpeditor | OK. Then this is fucking worthless | 23:30 |
| holstein | !language | DarthExpeditor | 23:30 |
| ubottu | DarthExpeditor: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family-friendly, polite, and professional. | 23:31 |
| DarthExpeditor | Kinda what I suspected. | 23:31 |
| bekks | DarthExpeditor: Use FAT32 and watch your language. | 23:31 |
| DarthExpeditor | Problem that I have is that a vendor gave me an image for their "recovery" software | 23:31 |
| DarthExpeditor | I'm supposed to run the image onto the flash drive and then copy the recovery image to the drive so it can be restored. | 23:32 |
| DarthExpeditor | Then I boot off the drive and restore it. | 23:32 |
| DarthExpeditor | problem is that the "recovery" software image is in FAT16 | 23:32 |
| DarthExpeditor | Tards | 23:32 |
| DarthExpeditor | Is there a way to convert it? | 23:32 |
| quuxman | whoever: not exactly what I'm looking for, but thanks | 23:33 |
| whoever | quuxman: ok, so back at originl idea | 23:33 |
| quuxman | whoever: yeah, that post suggested using Alt-Gr for the modifier | 23:34 |
| kickit2 | im getting the feeling that there is something missing from the download ISO that is needed for the pxe client to accept the server as a source. any one know what this is? I was going to just clone a mirror but thats a 101GB download, which is crazy excessive! | 23:34 |
| bekks | DarthExpeditor: No. Create a FAT32 filesystem. | 23:35 |
| wilee-nilee | kickit2, Doesn't the iso have a sum? | 23:36 |
| DarthExpeditor | Yeah. That's the obvious answer but you missed the part where I told you I was having to use a factory image that is bootable. | 23:36 |
| bossman759 | does anyone know how to completely remove KDE from ubuntu? I've tried looking on askubuntu but what I found didn't actually remove it. | 23:37 |
| OerHeks | !puregnome | 23:38 |
| ubottu | If you want to remove all !Kubuntu packages or !Xubuntu packages and have a default !Ubuntu system, follow the instructions here: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/pureubuntu | 23:38 |
| kickit2 | wilee-nilee: the checksome matches - I think that there is something physically left out of the iso that the repository has. the PXE setup boots fine, but when it comes to selecting a source, it refuses to accect the lan server while it will take internet servers.. | 23:38 |
| wilee-nilee | bossman759, Take a look in playing around. http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/ | 23:38 |
| bekks | DarthExpeditor: Well, you just cant copy a file that large onto it. | 23:39 |
| wilee-nilee | kickit2, Not sure but my suspicion would be your understanding how to set that up. | 23:39 |
| whoever | quuxman: i assume this is what your looking for /at http://askubuntu.com/questions/254424/how-can-i-change-what-keys-on-my-keyboard-do-how-can-i-create-custom-keyboard | 23:40 |
| kickit2 | wilee-nille: this link says the same thing, but for 12.10 http://askubuntu.com/questions/204786/unable-to-install-12-10-with-pxe when doing this, their supposed "50MB" comes back as 101GB. 50MB i can handle.. 101GB and I might as well just let them all install directly over the net with http! | 23:40 |
| wilee-nilee | kickit2, What aren't you? | 23:41 |
| kickit2 | net as in internet, not lan.. I want to do via LAN.. download the distro once and let the clients grab it from there | 23:42 |
| MarkusDBX | Anyone who knows which window manager this is? https://downloads.kitenet.net/videos/git-annex/git-annex-assistant-intro.ogv | 23:43 |
| markovh | how can i tell which source a package is coming from? | 23:44 |
| wilee-nilee | MarkusDBX, lxds or lubuntu | 23:46 |
| wilee-nilee | lxde | 23:46 |
| MarkusDBX | wilee-nilee: thanks | 23:46 |
| darkblue_b | hi all - I am trying backportage, but it fails at the last step "file or directory not found" it appears to do wverything else.. I am following htese instructions http://architects.dzone.com/articles/how-backport-packages-ubuntu | 23:46 |
| MarkusDBX | the tiling in lxde look smooth | 23:46 |
| darkblue_b | I am logged into a 12.04 system, pulling ipython from raring | 23:47 |
| darkblue_b | I named my new PPA ipython-bp | 23:47 |
| darkblue_b | but I have no idea which step is failing.. the python stack trace does not say | 23:47 |
| darkblue_b | Please check ipython 0.13.2-2~precise1~ppa1 in file:///tmp/backportpackage-vI8xHm | 23:50 |
| darkblue_b | the cmd is backportpackage -u ppa:screenlight/ipython-bp ipython | 23:50 |
| Pici | darkblue_b: #ubuntu-packaging would probably be a more appropriate place to ask | 23:51 |
| darkblue_b | oh! didnt know.. ok | 23:51 |
| rypervenche | darkblue_b: I think the PPA probably also has something to do with it. PPAs are bad :/ | 23:52 |
