kontagioususr there is no ubuntu drivers common00:07
mikodoDr_Willis, Thanks, again: "A Flash-based solid-state drive is less suitable as a temporary-storage device for reading and writing due to the asymmetric read/write duration and due to wear." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temporary_folder00:09
Dr_Willismikodo,  of course theres many sites out about how people are overly paranoid about their flash drives wearing out. ;)00:10
Dr_Willisit should last you a few years with very little hassles. even if you abuse it. ;P00:10
mikodoDr_Willis, :000:10

XYZAFFA1RIt looks like im not getting ubuntu00:13
Dr_Williswhy cant you? or you mean you dont want to?00:13
XYZAFFA1RI want to00:13
rannongaXYZ: what are your partitions?00:13
XYZAFFA1RBut what if something goes wrong?00:13
XYZAFFA1RTHats the thing00:13
Dr_Willishttp://wootangent.net/2013/03/dr-strangedrive-or-how-i-learned-to-stop-worrying-and-love-ssds/00:13
XYZAFFA1RI dont know what they are00:13
XYZAFFA1RI cant afford an ssd00:13
rannongaXYZ: could you please boot into windows 800:14
Dr_WillisXYZAFFA1R,  people in #windows will tell you what they are00:14
rannongaXYZ: it should be easy to see from there00:14
XYZAFFA1RI know what an ssd is00:14
Dr_Willisif you got a revovery dvd set. then you should be able to reinstall windows later if needed from them00:14
Dr_Willisssd info was not for you XYZAFFA1R ...00:14
XYZAFFA1ROh ok00:14
daftykinsXYZAFFA1R: are you wondering why your windows 8 system has 3+ partitions?00:14
XYZAFFA1Rbrb00:14
Dr_Willisim guessing its a windows 8  boot. windows 8 data, windows recovery tool partion, then the actual recovery partion itself00:15
daftykinssounds more like the UEFI spec on a GPT drive to me.00:15
rannongaXYZ: are you still there and what are you on atm?00:16
rannongaXYZ: i mean os00:16
Datanyone have experience with gre? right now I have host-a and host-b talking to each other but when I have a client connect it all fails00:16
dazrikHi all, I am looking to hire somebody to assist me in performing easy modifications00:16
draconusrannonga lol00:16
Dr_Willisif it was a GPT drive. then the installer should have been able to  resize/make more partions id think. unless of course they way they are arranged is causing the issue00:16
dazrikPM me please00:16
Dr_Willisdazrik,  thats rather vague job description.00:17
Datvery vague00:17
rannongamodifying your car?00:17

draconusit doesn't know...00:18
dazrikPM please if interested, decent payment00:18
Dr_Willisstill rather vague.. and there are 'bounty' sites for paying people to code stuff...00:19
dazrikWhat are bounty sites ?00:19
Dr_Willis'pay people to code stuff' :)00:19

Dr_Willis$100 to fix  bug xyzpdq  in this....  and so forth.00:20
mikodoNice read! I get it! Last paragraph: So I haven't stopped worrying entirely ... but given the performance improvement, the cost, and the new lease of life on my old machines, it's a trade-off I'm delighted with.And I back up, constantly. As should you00:20
mickstepdazrik: http://www.fossfactory.org/ is one00:20
Dr_Willismikodo,  from what ive seen the livespan of new non-ssd drives seem lower then it used to be for the old drives from years back.. so i doubt if ssds are much worse. ;)00:21
netlarHi all00:21
Dr_Willisbut im also constantly (well yearly) upgradeing bits and peices of machines..00:21
LozzyI think temperature is the HD's enemy - mine last when kept cool it seems00:22
kontagiousher i got the hdmi output working with additional drivers but now the screen cuts off the edges00:22
rannongathats some scanning crap00:23
Dr_Williskontagious,  that would be your 'overscan' settings on the monitor most likely00:23
Dr_WillisI have several tv's that can disable overscan. (higher end models)00:23
kontagiousit is a tv00:23
Dr_Willissome i cant. and have to use the config tools to tweak the settings00:23
Dr_WillisHigher end tvs are becomming more and more like a pc monitor all the time. ;)00:23
rannongatry going to ati catalyst monitor settings and set overscan to 000:23
mikodoDr_Willis, I also have on another install, a link that can explains how to considerably diminish the write times of SSD's in Linux. I will not worry, except I don;t have the link to offer to other readers now.00:24
Dr_WillisI had to disable several settings on my Samsung tv - for it to work 'best' as a computer monitor..  the stuff the tv did to make movies and shows look better.. made the desktop look worse.00:24
kontagiouscatalyst control panel is not installed i don't think00:24
rannongaforgot to ask ati or nvidia00:24
kontagiousati00:25
rannongak00:25
kontagiouswhen i had proprietary drivers installed it did it but I'm not sure with open source00:25
babinlonstonWill the ubuntu-13.04-desktop-amd64.iso Support Intel 61 motherboard00:25
Dr_Willismikodo,  i just use one or 2 options to fstab for /  and thats about it. :)  in a few months ssds are coing to be cheaper.. i will get a bigger one and use it as my main drive. and move this one to  my older ubuntu box. :) progress00:25
rannongaoh so you have open source00:25
rannongano wonder you dont have catalyst00:26
kontagiousproprietary messed up display on restart00:26
Ari-Yangkontagious, you're still doing this? all you have to do is go to software sources, go to the additional drivers tab and select the driver, apply changes, then reboot00:26
kontagiousreboot00:26
Ari-Yangkontagious, oh00:26
Ari-Yangyeah that figures00:26
Ari-Yangjust stick with the open source one00:26
Dr_Willisneat thing about the Raspberry Pi and its disrtos ive noticed.. it (can) ask  if you got overscan on the monitor and enable or disable it as needed  :P00:26
kontagiousthe edges of the screen are now city of00:26
Ari-Yangand when you try plugging in your computer with hdmi kontagious run xrander --auto00:26
Ari-Yangin terminal00:26
Dr_Williswonder how hard that would be to implement on ubuntu00:26
XYZAFFA1RSo I am going to get an external for my birthday00:26
XYZAFFA1RIN october00:26
babinlonstonubuntu-13.04-desktop-amd64.iso   can i installed it and will this Support all the Drivers for my Intel 61 HO motherboard00:27

XYZAFFA1Runtell then, I will use puppy00:27
Dr_Willisbabinlonston,  we dont memorize hard ware specs here.00:27

Intotheraini have trouble with installing Steam ,well i've instelled it with Software Center, everything must be right ,but when im trying to open it ,nothing.What to do?00:28
Dr_WillisIntotherain,  i had better luck downlioading the .deb from the steam web site and installing it that way.00:29
Intotherainwith terminal?00:29
Dr_Willisactually i think the deb just installs the steam installer the user then runs and it actually THEN installs into the users home.00:29
Dr_Willisterminal works..00:29
Intotheraincan you  guide me in query?00:29
Dr_Willis:)   there is a #ubuntu-steam channel also i think00:29
OerHeksthere is an #ubuntu-steam channel here on freenode.00:30
OerHeksjups00:30
Dr_Willisremove steam witht he package manager.. download the .deb from the steam site.. install it.. run it00:30
Dr_Willisthen it actually installs..00:30
Intotherainwell i never downloaded deb file or install file like this00:30
texHello, I just dl'd Ubuntu Studio yesterday & am totally new to Linux & so have a couple of basic questions. 1) Which folder are the apps stored in on the directory tree?00:31

IntotherainAnother question ,how i can:move taskbar on the top ,to bottom (like old ubuntu) ,and how to lock icons there ,instead of the left dock bar.00:34
Dr_WillisIntotherain,  you dont move the unity left side launcher panel.00:34
rannongahe meant the top taskbar with volume00:34
Dr_Willisif you want a bottom panel. use a dock for down there. or a differnt desktop.00:34
Dr_Willisyou dont move the top panel either. ;)00:34
rannongabut i dont think its possible in unity00:35
kontagiousAri-Yang, how do i install xrandr on Ubuntu?00:36
Dr_Willis!find xrandr00:36
ubottuFound: lxrandr, lxrandr-dbg, libxrandr-dev, libxrandr2, libxrandr2-dbg00:36
Dr_Willisif you install lxrandr it should pull in the needed xrandr tools00:36
texHello, I'm totally new to Linux. When I try to download an app or driver I get a password authentication window. Where do I go to setup the password?00:37
kontagiouswith apt get not software. thanks00:37
Ari-Yangkontagious, xrandr should already be installed00:37
Ari-Yangjust type xrandr --auto in terminal and hit enter00:38
Ari-Yangif it isn't you should get "xrandr not installed sudo apt get etc. etc."00:38
wilee-nileetex, Itb is the user password you login with00:38
rannongatex: I don't understand00:38
kontagiousit wasn't installed before. i got it installed and ran command successfully but it didn't work00:38
texIt's not accepting that password.00:38

wilee-nileetex, Cool, enjoy00:49
rannongaInto: do you mean proprietary drivers?00:50
BLZbubba_i switched from ati to nvidia and removed fglrx.  however, what do I have to do to reconfigure the nvidia alternatives?  i had to manually link them after the last kernel update, e.g. nvidia_drv and libvdpau_nvidia00:50
Dr_Willisthats why you stick your password on a post-it-note :)00:50
BLZbubba_guess i could try dpkg-reconfigure first :P00:50
Dr_WillisBLZbubba_,  how did you install the nvidia drivers and remove the fglrx00:50
Taekidiot me, did sudo -l user00:51
IntotherainWell i will say it like that ,im new to ubuntu.I have both Intel and Nvidia but i need Nvidia graphics.00:51
BLZbubba_actually i had nvidia before i had ati so it was already there00:51
BLZbubba_i'll bet reconfigure fixes it00:51
Dr_WillisIntotherain,  you have an optimus system?00:52
Intotherainhow?00:52
BLZbubba_but on the other hand, 640x480 looks great on a 30" screen00:52
Intotherainwell i think so.00:52
rannongalol00:52
texWhere is the Apps folder in the Directory Tree00:52
Dr_Willisthen you need to install bumblebee  to enable turning on of the nvidia card/drivers and  use it for games00:52
Intotherainwell i really need a query for this?can someone really help me.00:53
Dr_Willistex,  apps folder?    there is no such thing in linux as far as i know.00:53
Intotherainwith all i read ,something gets wrong from google.00:53
rannongatex: yeah im not quite sure what you mean00:53
texSo there isn't a folder where you can view the application files?00:53
Dr_Willistex,  echo $PATH     shows the paths searched for running stuff00:53
TaekDr_Willis: why do I get lsb_release error - did a dist-upgrade from 10.04 and now i get this as error lsb_release fail00:53
Dr_WillisTaek,  no idea.00:53
texOK thnx00:53
rannongatex: if you know the name of the software you can use (whereis software) in terminal00:54
Taekmaybe wrong depends?00:54
Taekor no depends installed00:54
texGot it thnx00:54
Dr_Willislsb_release just reads from a file in /etc/ i thought. ;)00:54
texWhen you're poisoned by years of Windows use it tkaes an adjustment in thinking00:55
IntotherainAfter installing Bumblebee what to do?00:55
Dr_Williswindows dosent have to use a  c:/program files/ either tex .... its just common practice for them00:55
rannongayeah you can install everything on desktop though that would be stupid00:56
Dr_WillisIntotherain,  no need to msg me.. I dont use bumblebee. so no idea.00:56
IntotherainAnd who can help me with thise drivers problem?00:56
IntotherainI have OpenGL problems and can't insteall one program.Need to fix my drivers(which arnt installed) so I can run the program.00:56
Dr_Willisbumblebee is very much a 'work in progress'  and may or may not work properly in every case.00:56
IntotherainWell no one is helping me with "work in progress".00:56
IntotherainI really wants to know how to install the drivers ,thats why I came here =)00:57
Dr_Willisit may be easier to just disable the intel chipset and enable the nvidia one in the bios if you can.00:57
wilee-nileeIntotherain, You get what you pay for. ;)00:57
Intotherain:))00:57
wilee-nileefree00:57
IntotherainYes.00:57
rannongaInto: lol00:57
TaekDr_Willis: seems to be a bug issue with teamviewer 800:57
IntotherainWell still how to install Nvidia drivers?00:57
Dr_WillisOptimus breaks the standard way of doing things.. and ive never used an optimus system.  I imagine the askubuntu.com site has many hits/info on setting up bumblebee also.00:57
Dr_Willissince the forums are down. ;)  (they are still down?)00:58
wilee-nileeyes00:58
Ficmanhow long will they be down?00:58
Dr_Willisi imagine no one knows Ficman  ;)00:58
wilee-nileeuntil vb sets a fix, and they isolate the hack probably00:59
BLZbubba_Dr_Willis: ah i see, fglrx didn't really die00:59
fabiobikhow to find the drivers for my graphic card?00:59
fabiobiki know its intel but its old00:59
reisioand if it was a vbulletin problem, the only sane course is to migrate all the data to another system00:59
wilee-nileeits not open source00:59
Dr_Willisintel drivers are normally included fabiobik00:59
reisiowilee-nilee: exactly01:00
wilee-nilee;)01:00
reisioin the end it always comes back to haunt you, closed source software :p01:00
fabiobikDr_Willis, im talking about an evo d510 pc01:00
fabiobikfrom 2004 i guess01:00
Dr_Willisfabiobik,  ev0 d510 means very little to me.. if its using an intel video chipset - intel video drivers are normally included01:01
fabiobikDr_Willis, i dont think its sucessfull installed01:01
fabiobikDr_Willis how to test the drives? because in youtube videos its not fluid01:01
Dr_Willisfabiobik,  flash videos suck - is not a sign the drivers are wrong.. ;)01:02
Dr_Willisits a sign that flash basically stinks.01:02
Dr_Willistry the html5 mode on youtube perhaps?01:02
fabiobikDr_Willis, but also in system the shadows are not showing correctly01:02
fabiobikappears black instead01:03
fabiobikHow to know what graphic card its present?01:03
reisiosudo lspci | grep -i vga01:03
Dr_Willislspci command shows that info01:04
Ari-Yangfabiobik, lspci | grep VGA01:04

ryanlinanyone think they can help me out? New to linux, i'm trying to run steam, but it does not open01:05
Ari-Yangryanlin, how did you install it? j/w01:05
ryanlinOriginall I tried from steam's website and had the issue, removed it, then tried from the USC01:05
ryanlinboth times, same result01:05
Dr_Willisand the result was?01:06
ryanlinNothing happens.01:06
Ari-Yangtbh, I'm not sure :F01:06
wilee-nileebeat me to it Dr_Willis01:06
Dr_Willisand did  you try running it from a terminal and looking for error messages?01:06
Ari-Yangryanlin, you mean it doesn't run?01:06
ryanlinCorrect.01:06
Ari-Yangwhat Dr_Willis said, try running it in terminal01:06
ryanlinI tried from terminal, this is what I'm getting: xerror_handler: X failed, continuing01:06
mikodoDr_Willis, Finally found it: This page was recommended to me for SSD LInux Optimization. And yes,  I am noticing everyone I m reading now, are saying also to put /tmp on the platter. Thank you: https://sites.google.com/site/easylinuxtipsproject/ssd01:07
ryanlinShot in the dark here through my searching, is it possible I have the wrong video drivers installed?01:07
Ari-Yangryanakca, what card do you have?01:07
Ari-Yangati? or nvidia?01:07
Ari-Yangryanlin, and what ubuntu version are you running?01:07
ryanlin12.0401:08
Ari-Yangwhat kind of card?01:08
ryanlinAnd I couldn't tell you on the card, it's a laptop I hadn't used in some time.  However, I have the AMD catalyst installed, but it willnot let me open, which leads me to believe it's nvidia01:08
Ari-Yangrun this in terminal: lspci | grep VGA01:08
Ari-Yangand then copy and paste the output01:09
wilee-nileemikodo, It says not in ram.01:10
mikodowilee-nilee, OK01:11
wilee-nileecan we assume your calling the SSD platter here?01:11
ryanlinam i to type as: "lspci | grep VGA" ?01:11
wilee-nileemikodo, Thats the link I use to set mine up I like it.01:11
Ari-Yang.........ryanlin, yes without quotes.....01:12
TaekWhy I get this fail: wine: /home/taek/.config/teamviewer8 is not owned by you01:12
ryanlin00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 07)01:12
Ari-Yangso it's intel...01:12
* wilee-nilee thinks wine is fro drinking, period.01:12
mikodowilee-nilee, NO. I will use a SSD for /root and spinning platter disk for DATA to symlink back to the /root installs on the SSD.01:12
reisiowilee-nilee: :)01:13
Ari-Yangdoubt fglrx would have any affect for your card *shrugs*01:13
Ari-Yangat least you know what card you got01:13
mikodowilee-nilee, Multiple /root installs on the SSD01:13
ryanwinso how do i uninstall the amd catalyst that's on here, and install the intel drivers?01:13
wilee-nileemikodo, Ah, I have only room for one HD so I bought a 356 gig and run it all on it.01:13
wilee-nilee256*01:13
wilee-nilee4 OS's01:14
xmetali saw someone in one of the other rooms last night that was trying to get Wine working ... on Windows01:14
Dr_WillisTaek,  check that all the files and dirs in your home are owned by you, not root.01:14
mikodowilee-nilee, It could have been you that told me about the link. Thanks01:14
Ari-Yangryang, I'd run sudo aptitude purge fglrx in terminal. but first, go to system settings -> software sources -> additional drivers tab01:14
Ari-Yangwhat do you see there?01:14
Dr_WillisTaek,  ls -al filename01:14
xmetal(thats a "doh!" moment)01:14
wilee-nileemight have been I don't follow the 20% not used though.01:14
TaekDr_Willis: so uninstalling teamviewer 8 via apt requires that root owns the dir01:14
Taek?01:14
wilee-nileeof the ssd unalocated01:14
Dr_WillisTaek,  UNinstalling somthing with apt - does NOT touch files in the users home  (at least not that ive ever seen)01:15
wilee-nileeheh actually 10%01:15
ryanwinokay, the only thing showing is my Boradcom STA wireless driver.01:15

ikoniaTaek: you started teamviewer wrong01:16
Dr_WillisTaek,  why not just remove that directory its complaining about?01:17
ikoniaTaek: or that package has been built incorrectly01:17
Taeknot trying to start anything ikonia trying to uninstall it01:17
ikoniaTaek: yes, but you started it wrong - hence why it has the wrong permissions01:17
ikoniaTaek: I suspect if you check it's owned by root01:17
Ari-Yangryanlin, how did you install fglrx? did you install it with sudo apt-get install fglrx?01:17
Taek install package was made by teamviewer01:17
Dr_Willisive never noticed an apt package remove try to clean out settings in the users home befor.01:17
Taekdpkg -i teamviewer.deb01:17
ikoniaTaek: there we go then01:17
Taekwas how I install it :D01:17
ryanwinlol, I can't say for certain unfortunately, I've typed a lot of things I've read on the internet today:(01:18
ikoniaTaek: so either a.) you started it wrong b.) the package was built wrong01:18
Taekwell, sudo dpkg -i teamviewer.deb01:18
ikoniaTaek: repeating that doesn't change anything01:18
Dr_WillisTaek,  so look at the directory/file and see who owns it..01:18
ikoniaroot will own it01:18
Dr_Willisand remove it if you want to.01:18
ryanwinI've been using Ubuntu for all of 12 hours at this point01:18

reisioIIRC, teamviewer works best if you simply install wine via your package manager, and run teamviewer from the tarball (not deb)01:18
TaekDr_Willis: Owner of that directory is me01:18

TaekI didn't install it in wine XD.. it installed itself.01:20
ikoniait's wine that's complaining, not dpkg01:20
ikoniaTaek: yes, the package is junk01:20
Ari-Yangryanwin, type sudo aptitude purge fglrx fglrx_* fglrx-amdcccle* fglrx-dev*01:20
Taekthat's how teamviewer is, junk ;)01:20
ikonia...and yet you installed it01:20
Dr_Willismakes me wonder what would happen if you had 100 users that have used teamviewer would it try to remove alltheir configs also? thats scary01:20
Taekwas looking up an error for another user :D01:20

Ari-Yangryanwin, when you type it and enter your password and hit enter, is it uninstalling?01:21

mikodoDr_Willis, I have been rebooting all over the place, looking for the bookmark I showed on SSD optimization. I've missed some comments by you. 1/ I looked at using the fstab instance, but supposedly it doesn't work well with SAMBA, so I have chosen to learn to do basically the same thing with Symbolic links. 2/ I get that you are saying that SSD are lasting well and that you are suggesting the regular spinning platter disk, is better for01:33
mikodo space allocation, especially with me booting up to 10 distro's at a time 3/ I appreciate the tip about SSD coming down in price soon. Maybe I'll wait before buying my SSD. Thanks.01:33
carlosefQuick question: I was working on a dual boot install. Does it make a difference to create the /boot partition as primary vs logical? I was able to install Ubuntu when I chose Primary and ext4 and I had not problems writing GRUB on this partition.01:34
usr13  I think I may be a bit late in this conversation....01:34
billquantusme201:34
rannongacarlosef it shouldnt matter as long as you have less than 4 primary partitions01:34
rannongabut since its boot you should probably use a logical partition, because you can have unlimited logical partitions01:35
Coburnuh01:36
CoburnI tought you could only have 32 logical parititons01:36
Coburnon MBR01:36
billquantushow do i get my nvidia drivers for my laptop01:36
rannongayou must be right01:36
usr13carlosef: Doesn't make a difference, primary is ok, logical is ok too, use logical if you need to, (if you need more than 4).01:36
rannongaexactly01:36
CoburnIdeally01:37
Coburnmake the boot partition primary01:37
carlosefrannonga I have never had issues with this, but this week was weird.01:37
Coburnand then you can have logical space for the OSes01:37
carlosefI ended up using a primary and /ext4 for /boot, and it finally worked, but it didn't make sense why...01:38
mikodoDr_Willis, Use /tmp in larger disk for space allocation. OK I am done :(01:38
rohffhu01:38
usr13carlosef: It doesn't make a difference primary or logical.01:38
goddardwhere is my sftp mounts if looking from the command line?01:44
Dr_Willisi filled up /tmp/ befor on a small 15gb ubunti install once. ;P01:44

Dr_Willisgoddard,  in .gvfs somewhere01:44
LeBoukshello01:44
goddardDr_Willis: it requires root privilages and it is empty when doing sudo su01:44
Ari-Yangryanwin, did it work out with Steam?01:44
Dr_Willisgoddard,  err.. dont use 'sudo su' and you are running nautilus as root?01:44

Dr_Willisgoddard,   mounted how?01:45
LeBouksi'm not quite good with linux, i'm in saudi arabia01:45

LeBouksP2P01:46
goddardDr_Willis: using nautilus' connect to server menu01:46
Dr_Willisgoddard,  then they should be in ~/.gvfs/ somewhere as far as i know.01:46
Ari-YangLeBouks, no they are not. you can torrent just fine in Saudi Arabia01:46
Ari-Yangunless you mean torrent sites....01:46
ryanwinAri, it did thank you01:47
Ari-Yangryanwin, nice :>01:47
Ari-Yangyou're welcome01:47

Dr_WillisLeBouks,  use tor01:47
harrishello01:47
Ari-YangLeBouks, yeah, sounds like to me some torrent sites are blocked. is thepiratebay.sx blocked?01:47
goddardLeBouks: or even better use a VPN01:47
Dr_Willisgoddard,  i dont understand your ussage/mention of root/sudo su.01:47
Prof_Ionhey all o/01:48
goddardDr_Willis: that mention is in reference to .gfvs file ownership/group01:48
goddardDr_Willis: for some reason that folder is owned by the root user01:48
Dr_Willis.gvfs uses the fuse stuff, so that may be why it seems odd.01:48
Dr_Willisits special. ;P01:48
goddardobviously :D01:48
LeBouksdr willis, can you suggest a simple VPN, for exemple for windows i use CHRIS PC ANONYMOUS FREE PROXY01:49

virtyxHey I don't really know how to phrase this as a question but I started a software update and it's been on the installing phase (not downloading) for an hour, in that time it's only reached 17%02:51
wilee-nileeProf_Ion, does ctrl=alt-t bring up a terminal02:51
wilee-nileectrl-alt-t02:51
virtyxI feel like I could've installed a distro from scratch and been done by now... am I doing something wrong?02:51
Prof_IonI have terminal02:52
virtyxI'm on Kubuntu and using Muon to update02:52
wilee-nileeProf_Ion, Run lspci and look for the graphics info02:52
naryfavirtyx: restart the computer and open up a terminal and do: sudo dpkg-reconfigure02:52
naryfavirtyx: sorry, not sudo, kdesu02:52
virtyxnaryfa: If I'm in the middle of installing will that break my update?02:53
Prof_IonNvidia NV502:53
Dako300I have an X1600 card that will not work on my 2 GPU setup. I get no signal from the X1600 but a useable GUI from my old TNT2. How could I enable the other card. I have the radeon module loaded and running Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. Any help would be nice02:53
naryfavirtyx: it depends on many factors, some files will get updated, some will have to be redone02:53
wilee-nileeProf_Ion, Graphics are not my strong point I have not had to load any in 6 years of use, but others know that part.02:53
virtyxnaryfa: Er, rather will that break my system?02:53
naryfavirtyx: no02:53
virtyxnaryfa: Oh alright. Thanks for the tip!02:54
Prof_Ionwell that is what I found for my graphics card info02:54
Prof_IonI do get the default background image now though02:54
curatrixDako300: Will the x1600 work with the TNT removed?02:54
wilee-nileeProf_Ion, Ah nvidia, lets see if a update upgrade works first run his sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get upgrade02:55
Dako300No, the computer will not even boot02:55
wilee-nileethis*02:55
Dako300the whole reason that the TNT2 is in there is because it is the only way to get past the POST02:55
curatrixDako300: Has the x1600 worked previously on the same pc?02:56
pedro1hi everybody02:56
Prof_Ionalright wait how do I run that?02:56
Prof_IonJust type it into the terminal right?02:56
* Prof_Ion is a total newb02:56
naryfaProf_Ion: sudo apt-get install nvidia-current02:56
Dako300I have gotten a terminal and on the live CD, I can get graphics but when I select use Ubuntu, then it complains about low graphics and crahses02:56
pedro1how do i do for apt-get stop asking for my sudo password?02:56
Dr_Willisasking?02:57
Dr_Willishow are you using apt-get ?02:57
curatrixDako300: with the x1600?02:57
pedro1sorry i just got here02:57
Dako300Yes, the live CF graphics is coming from the X160002:57
Dako300*live CD02:57
wilee-nileeProf_Ion, Yeah type it into the terminal, however Dr_Willis is back, he knows the graphics way batter than I.02:58
Prof_Ionshit I am gonna have to take the damn thing downstairs02:58
Dr_Willisall i do lately is just install the drivers via the addatioanl-drivers tool and they work. ;)02:58
Prof_Ionmy linux machine doesnt have an internet connection02:58
ryanwinDo you guys run Linux as your primary OS?02:59
pedro1@Dr_Willis asking can i install programs through apt-get install without having to type my password02:59
pedro1?02:59
Dr_Willisryanwin,  on some pcs i do02:59
Dr_Willispedro1,  you can set up sudo to not ask for some apps.. but its not reccomended02:59
pedro1ah ok thanks, so i'd better set up a shorter password02:59
Taekwhat everyou do make sure 'sudo -l {user{' is not one of them!02:59
naryfapedro1: type in: sudo visudo03:00
naryfapedro1: and then scroll down03:00
Dako300Now I can only pull video from the TNT2 and there is No Signal from the X160003:00
wilee-nileeryanwin, From the beginning.03:00
naryfapedro1: and change root    ALL=(ALL) ALL to root    ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL03:01
curatrixDako300: is it possible that the x1600 is faulty?03:01
naryfapedro1: and %admin ALL=(ALL) ALL to %admin ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL03:01
curatrixDako300: Or not compatible with the mobo03:01
Dr_Willisnaryfa,  thats terriable to set it where sudo  dosent ask for all apps. ;)03:01
Dako300I would be pretty pissed at the eBay seller that sold me a broken "Used" item.03:01
LeBouksDoes anyone know when viber desktop will be available for linux ??03:01
Dako300If it helps, the X1600 has some problems with older Dell boards03:02
naryfaDr_Willis: I don't make decisions for people, I leave them at their free will, while I agree with you, I think it belongs to the user to decide.03:02
curatrixDako300: Have you checked the voltages for both the mobo and the gpu?03:02
Dako300It is not compatible with the mobo, that is why I need the TNT203:02
Dako300but I find it odd that I can pull graphics and text from it and it be faulty03:02
Dako300It is plugged into the AGP slot and I have plugged in the Molex connector into it.03:03
wilee-nileeLeBouks, How would anyone on the ubuntu support channel know that?03:03
Dr_Williscould be it needs moar power to run the gfx!03:03
Dako300I think a 480W power supply will churn out enough power for it.03:03
* Dr_Willis wonders if anyone knows what a viber desktop is.03:03

ryanwinSorry for the stupid questions, on a Linux crash course here..  which gui is generally more preferred, Unity, or something like Gnome?03:06
curatrixgnome03:07
ryanwinAny specific reasons?03:07
naryfakingbeast: 7 in binary is 111, which means it is on for each permission03:07
curatrixLinux user in general(not ubuntu exclusively) seem to prefer gnome03:08
curatrix*users03:08
kingbeastwhy does this thing keep saying invalid mode?03:08
wilee-nileeryanwin, Unity runs on top of gnome 3 using just gnome can mean multiple possibilities03:08
ryanwinOh, I thought it was an "either-or" type choice03:08
Dr_Willisgnome-shell  vs unity   ;)03:09
Dr_Willistry them both..03:09
curatrixvs KDE03:09
Dr_Willisyou dont hear much about kde these days03:09
pedro1xubuntu beats all03:09
ryanwinI started with Unity right out of 12.04 install, and I'm using Gnome now03:09
naryfakingbeast: what did you type exactly?03:09
Dr_Willisjwm+rox-filer! ;P03:09
wilee-nileeryanwin, Gnome 3 is the default there is unity a compiz plugin on top the gnome-shell and the the fallback which is a pseudo gnome 203:09
wilee-nileeOpps on top of gnome 3 not the shell03:10
ryanwinoi lol03:10
pedro1but i still prefer windows03:10

martisjwe're looking to move our ubuntu servers from the us to aus. Is there a way to clone a cloud server and send it to another location?03:18
wilee-nileemartisj, You might ask in #ubuntu-servers03:19
Dr_Willisive seen some vpn services have  a way you can dowload images.. but if those images were compatable with another vpn server maybe a bigger question03:19
naryfamartisj: do you have physical access to the server?03:19
martisjnaryfa: no03:19
martisjit's hosted with rackspace,03:19
wilee-nileemartisj, Doh #unbuntu-server03:19
martisjcloud servers.03:19
martisjwilee-nilee: thanks03:20
Dr_Willisreally wouldent you just need to copy over the installed packages. and the config and data files. not the whole server image.03:20
* martisj joining servers chan 03:20
wilee-nileeno prob03:20
martisjDr_Willis: that would be the easiest indeed03:20
martisjis there a way to get a dump of what's been installed with apt-get?03:20
Dr_Willis!clone03:20
ubottuTo replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « aptitude  --display-format '%p' search '?installed!?automatic' > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo xargs aptitude --schedule-only install < my-packages ; sudo aptitude install » (this may cause problems with multiarch before 12.10) - See also !automate03:20
Dr_Willisthat funny looking aptitude command. :)03:21
Dr_Willisthere might be other ways also.03:21
wilee-nileesudo dpkg --set-selections < my-packages    Is what I use for a package list03:21
wilee-nileethats everything though03:22

brucewhealtonI was wondering if someone could help me.  I setup ubuntu server 12.04 and updated php to 5.5.0 using phpbrew.  Later i tried to install drupal and it said i need php extensions enabled.04:55
myersgbut its a 4gb, I had a 2...,04:56
goddardbrucewhealton: sounds like you need to enable php extensions04:56
guzzlefrymyersg: Best keep him away from your box.04:56
myersghe discovered on the other computer it is now saying 6gb and not 8.  ..04:56

brucewhealtonI would think there are many extensions.04:56

goddardbrucewhealton: dont use phpbrew and you will have no issues04:57
goddardbrucewhealton: use apt-get04:57
goddardbrucewhealton: this isn't mac or crappy ruby04:58
guzzlefrymyersg: Anyway, no real way to hide it. RAM is cheap, give it back and order some. :P04:58
myersgso I take it there is no way to just edit a file?04:58
penoswho stole my ram? hahaha04:58
goddardmyersg: you could probably compile that program from source04:58
brucewhealtonI tried sudo apt-get install php5-gd and it couldn't find it04:58

Equinox3causasui: i said over 10 GB05:26
Equinox3not 40 GB05:26
causasuiyeah, i had it set to 40, curious what the ceiling would be05:26
sajancausasui, how you you allocate / kind of depends what you're allocated or partioning elsewhere.  There's no 'right' amount.  If you're doing a basic desktop install and don't have any special requirements, just let Ubuntu do it for you.05:26
guzzlefryXionkana: which language?05:26
causasuisajan: i have 40mb for /boot, 6gb for swap, and now allocate a further 250 or so gb between / and /home05:26

Ari-Yanggeri_, okay so it's installed, tbh I don't know what the problem is then....06:40
Ari-Yangwilee-nilee, I don't like smplayer at all, I don't use it. I suggested it because it's /easier/ to install than the player I'd recommend, mpv.06:41
geri_thats strange06:41
Ari-Yangenergizer, the reason why xv and opengl don't work is because something might not be installed, like codecs... if X11 works just fine for you, you can stick with that, or find out what stuff is missing so you can use better VOs like opengl or xv06:41

aeon-ltdAnThRaX-SOI: you can separate /usr to have the binaries on the hdd, but i don't know how hard it is. separating /home is very common though which can be on the hdd then have the rest of / on the ssd06:51
energizerAri-Yang: ehh i found xv and gl, but neither seem to be doin the trick after installing u-r-e06:51
wilee-nileeAnThRaX-SOI, Yeah just make a space for it, use the windows disk manager to shrink it if needed, and reboot for the auto chkdsk and install ubuntu in the unallocated06:52
AnThRaX-SOIre-size my SSD?06:52
AnThRaX-SOIand the HDD?06:52
AnThRaX-SOIthe hdd is obviously ntfs06:52
wilee-nileeAnThRaX-SOI, I assume you have the ssd full of partitions am I correct?06:52

AnThRaX-SOIhow big of a partition should I make for ubuntu?06:53
farbodplease06:53
aeon-ltdfarbod: help you with what?06:54
wilee-nileeAnThRaX-SOI, Then you need a unallocated space for ubuntu's ext4 partition and a swap maybe, aeon-ltd suggests a splitting of home and root.06:54

ubottufarbod,: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..."06:54
AnThRaX-SOIi've no clue how to do that.06:54

aeon-ltdfarbod: that isn't a lot of info06:54
cfhowlettfarbod, I want a lamborghini ... see?  useless.  Details matter.06:55
wilee-nileeAnThRaX-SOI, Not difficult, however you should have the windows backed up no matter what or the ability to reinstall without losing anything.06:55
farbodi want a proxy to open some webs06:55
AnThRaX-SOIany free options to do that? windows backup doesn't work worth a shit06:55
farbodlike tor or freegaite06:55

cfhowlett!tor|farbod,06:56
ubottufarbod,: Tor is a program to route connections through several servers for anonymity. It is in Ubuntu's repositories, but the Tor Project recommends using their Tor packages due to past issues with Ubuntu's. For setup info, see option (2) of https://www.torproject.org/docs/debian.html.en | To use Tor on freenode, see !tor-sasl06:56

histo!notunity | guzzlefry07:06
ubottuguzzlefry: Ubuntu 11.10 and higher use the !Unity desktop environment by default.  To use GNOME Shell instead, install the "gnome-shell" package and investigate "gnome-tweak-tool".  For GNOME Fallback mode, which is similar to GNOME 2, install "gnome-panel". Both packages will place entries in the Sessions dropdown.07:06
guzzlefryah, thanks07:06
histoguzzlefry: there is also xfce lxde etc... there are plenty of Desktop environments to choose from.07:07
guzzlefryah, xfce it is. :P07:07
wilee-nileeguzzlefry, One thing you want to be aware of is that desktops are meta packages so if you install another and want to remove one there is a website that has the package list to do this safely.07:07
clynamenhello. Can you import setuptools in python2? (quantal)07:07
histoguzzlefry: xubunt-desktop meta package may be of interest to you if you want a polished looking xfce experience.07:08
xmetali like xfce07:08
guzzlefryhisto: Is that going to pull in lots of extra software? Trying to avoid that since I just use this for development.07:08
histoguzzlefry: yes the xubuntu-desktop meta package will pull in a bunch of extras. You can go more minimal by just pulling the xfce or xfce4 package I believe it is.07:09
guzzlefryThe blog post I read for installing a desktop environment on the server version had me pass --no-recommend-install to avoid that with Unity. Would it work for xubuntu-desktop?07:09
histoguzzlefry: eap xfce407:10
guzzlefryeap?07:10
histoguzzlefry: I would just install xfce4 if you want a lighter setup.07:10

syn-ackikonia, I fail to see how one is less proper than the other. It all gets the job done, no?08:44
obronioh: i was merey asking syn-ack why he preferes which and locate. but i see your point, ikonia08:44
R0SSI*as in YUMI08:45
syn-ackobroni, that's just the way I've done it since I started using linux in 199808:45
ActionParsnipikonia: i like cli, depends on the needs really, the user may be on a server install so nautilus will no be installed. 'locate' covers both desktop and server08:45
obroniah ok08:45
fishcookeris it possible to remove some line history line .. so it wont come back again08:45
ikoniasyn-ack: your on a desktop, designed for ease of use, a guy ask "how to find files" suggesting he really has no idea, and you are suggesting a.) terminal commands b.) hardcoded path searches, when there is an easy to use gui tool built into the desktop08:45
syn-ackikonia, fair enough08:45
ikoniaActionParsnip: I do'nt disagree with what "you" use, but see comment to syn-ack08:46
ActionParsnipfishcooker: you can grep -v the bash history file and output to another file as a user with sudo access. You can then copy the new file over08:46
ActionParsnipikonia: gotch08:46
syn-ackikonia, Like I said, personally, I'm just a creature of habit. I tend to go where I "know"08:47
syn-ackI know CLI. :/08:47
mathfreakfishcooker: Use your text editor on ~/.bash_history. Remove the line you don't want. Save and quit.08:47
ikoniasyn-ack: yes, but think about who you're helping when they ask08:47

stumpfist#wc08:53
syn-ackarc__, It sounds like you're trying to learn how the internals of linux. I commend you on that. Might I recommend something to you though? Install Vbox or VMware or something and get something like LFS, Gentoo, Slackware or the like and do it that way08:53
syn-ackdon't waste a perfectly good system08:53

_nebulaand it works fine in windows09:11
sandeepr_ltpanyone know how i can specify it in the preseed file in d-i pkgsel/include string09:11
_nebulaIt worked earlier so I suppose it is not a driver issue!09:12
syn-ackThat's kind of out of the scope of this channel, sandeepr_ltp... I would imagine, at least.09:12
Ignatiusnickname Gnagna09:12
sandeepr_ltpsyn-ack, is there another channel i should ask this?09:13
mathfreak_nebula: I've always had trouble with Broadcom cards on Linux.09:13
DJonesresting: As far as I can see, that ppa no longer exists, you may need to look for another ppa but bear in mind that ppa's aren't officially supported09:13

=== Zill is now known as Guest68598
joshu_syn-ack I read through your link and in the answers no one mentions mount flags. Just the type of filesystem and some other basic things.09:25
syn-ackjoshu_, did you look at the first reference link in the article?09:28
syn-ackjoshu_, http://opentechnow.blogspot.com/2010/02/linux-ssd-optimization-guide.html09:28
joshu_ok I went for the answers as I thought that would provided solid info from experienced users. I'll have a look at all the links now.09:29
jactaActionParsnip: are you still here?09:30
syn-ackjoshu_, yeah... it's actually a very well written article with other options. I wish I could personally could give you more definite advice, but I run platters.09:30
joshu_syn-ack no worries I appreciate the help you've given!09:31
=== r is now known as Guest43900
syn-ackI know the big one is that you move /tmp into RAM and something about TRIM and etc, but yeah...09:32
syn-ackI mean, if you have the RAM, you should move /tmp into RAM and have it noexec anyway, for security purposes.09:33
syn-ackThats one of the first things I do on my servers. My workstations.... not so much09:33
syn-ackAnd since Linux 2.6, I have followed the rule of thumb with regards to swap, anyway since its memory management is far better than that of 2.4 was.09:34
syn-ackhaven't, that is09:35
chekudaf09:36
farbod?09:36
chekudatesting09:36
farbod:d09:36
joshu_interesting thanks syn-ack09:37
ActionParsnipjacta: a little09:37
syn-ackjoshu_, for example, I have 4 gigs of RAM on this machine here, and I only have 500 megs of swap and even with that, I never touch it unless I'm running a VM or something09:38
ActionParsnipsyn-ack: moving ~/.cache/google-chrome or whatever browser you use's cache to tempfs too :)09:38
joshu_syn-ack and the machine you mention is running ubuntu desktop?09:39
syn-ackjoshu_, Xubuntu, but I would set up Ubuntu the same way09:40
syn-ackjoshu_, it's not like I do anything really intensive all the time, like Database serving or the like, so there's no real point in a heavy swap, here.09:41
joshu_ok syn-ack seems to be a lot of different opinions on how to configure ubuntu when using an SSD and also some bug related to lightdm. Starting to think that maybe it is not worth it to get an SSD to replace a platter09:41
syn-ackI mean, I cant hibernate, but boo hoo, I hate that feature anyway09:41
syn-ackjoshu_, what bug is this?09:41
joshu_syn-ack http://www.webupd8.org/2013/01/ubuntu-lightdm-black-screen-when-using.html09:42
syn-ackHell, if that's all the bug is... oh well, just go in there and fix... besides, it's probably fixed already anyway. Don't let that sway you from getting an SSD09:43
joshu_i'm creating this system for multiple users and buying new laptops, so I was considering SSDs as they don't spin and less risk of damage if the users are rough with the laptops. But I don't know now...09:43
gordonjcpjoshu_: you don't know why?09:43
syn-ackI wouldn't go as far as installing GDM... esp since LightDM is better.09:44
syn-ackjoshu_, you'll be fine.09:44
syn-ackjoshu_, Just deploy one, for you run it as your primary system for a while, tweak it and then deploy on a wide scale. No biggie, really.09:45
joshu_syn-ack yeah I have a system I'm still working on building that just uses ubuntu mini 13.04 and xserver-xorg lightdm…I'm essentially building a thin client laptop09:45
ajay_hi ajay09:45
ajay_this is sandesh09:45
syn-ackThen just go buy a bunch of ChromeBooks.09:45
syn-ackheh09:45
joshu_gordonjcp sorry what I mean is don't know if the SSD is worth it that's what I was trying to say...09:45
joysonhi m ajayn :P09:45
joshu_syn-ack hehe no Google thanks ;)09:46
syn-ackI was being sarcastic, anyway09:46
joshu_syn-ack I know :D09:46
syn-ackSeriously, I think you'll be fine09:46
gordonjcpjoshu_: get a couple and try it09:47
HexagoniteWhy won't dd stop copying when it already said '2537521152 bytes (2.5 GB) copied, 607.722 s, 4.2 MB/s'09:47
syn-ackas far as preseeding goes... I haven't done a preseed and deselect install in many, MANY moons and I've never done it on Ubuntu, so I seriously wouldn't advise it.09:47
Hexagonitethe USB still blinks and closing the terminal says there's an ongoing command09:48
gordonjcpjoshu_: kickstart and PXE are your friends, for bulk installs09:48
Hexagonitethe USB stopped blinking; anyone?09:50

syn-ackHrm10:00
syn-ackOne thing I don't agree with in this is that it says not having a separate /home part isnt useful.10:00
syn-ackimo, it most certainly is10:00
joshu_syn-ack so you wouldn't do a guided partitioning?10:01
syn-ackjoshu_, I never have.10:02
wy017Hi all. I'm new to Ubuntu. Just installed the Ubuntu 13.04 on my Asus A46CM, and I'm happy with it however I encounter minor issue with my keyboard layout and my GPU. Anyone has solutions to this? Ta.10:02
syn-ackjoshu_, on my workstations, I have / /home and swap10:02
tvjunkycan somebody tell me how to read the ubuntu CVE tracker?10:02
tvjunkyi.e. http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/2012/CVE-2012-3411.html10:02
ubottuDnsmasq before 2.63test1, when used with certain libvirt configurations, replies to requests from prohibited interfaces, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (traffic amplification) via a spoofed DNS query. (http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2012-3411)10:02
tvjunkydoes this mean there is no patch yet?10:02
syn-ackjoshu_, on my servers, I tend to have about 6 or 7 different partitions.10:02
tvjunkyi'm on 12.04 LTE10:03
tvjunkyLTS10:03
syn-ackjoshu_, before ext4, I ran XFS, and on that I had /boot, /, /home and swap10:03
syn-ackand I still have a seperate /boot on my servers, even with ext4, for added security.10:04
joshu_syn-ack ok I'll have to consider the partitioning some more10:04
syn-ackjoshu_, yeah, a good partitioning plan is very important.10:05
syn-ackThough, I'm sure some in here would argue that some of what I do is no longer necessary and blah, blah, blah10:06
joshu_sure everyone has there own ways.10:06
joshu_syn-ack something I've been wondering is how I can update and make configuration changes to the OS when these laptops will be in remote locations and I'll only need direct physical access if there's something really wrong.10:07
joshu_syn-ack commercial thin clients such as those by HP or Wyse when you update the OS you basically update an image10:08
syn-ackjoshu_, Landscape.10:08
syn-ackor clonezilla.10:08
syn-ackclonezilla can be set up as a PXE server.10:08
syn-ackIf the OS is going to be local and Ubuntu, look into Landscape, if you're wanting to go with a PXE Boot type system, use something like Clonezilla10:09
joshu_syn-ack so as long as a laptop has an internet connection and can power on I would be able to remotely  update it…ok PXE boot might be a bad option for remote users not on the LAN right?10:10
syn-ackright10:10
syn-ackStick to Landscape.10:10
syn-ackIt is really, REALLY nice10:11
joshu_syn-ack not overkill for 5 users?10:11
syn-ackyes and no.10:11
syn-ackIt certainly leaves room to scale it up, when the time comes10:12
NK`Hi10:12
NK`anyone know what is the environment variable "without NO_AT_BRIDGE" aim to ?10:12
NK`i meant "NO_AT_BRIDGE"10:12
joshu_syn-ack I was considering creating something on my own although what exactly I don't know..don't need anything super fancy or complex. Just need to be able to change a laptop's config say network settings, vpn settings and update the few things i've installed if needed10:13
lperry65I'm added myself to the www:data group which owns /var/www but i'm unable to change file permissions on a style sheet in a subdirectory of /var/www. i've checked and all directories in www are owned by www:data with g+w please help!10:13
syn-ackjoshu_, I know there's some free solutions out there, but Landscape is nice because A) you dont have to deal with that part of the administration B) it integrates nicely10:14
syn-ackjoshu_, I mean, really, when you think about it's a lot like LogMeIn10:14
joshu_can I shadow users to help them with landscape?10:15
syn-ackNot sure if they added that feature10:15
syn-ackjoshu_, Hell, that really can be done via RDP or VNC, really.10:15
joshu_syn-ack that's another thing I'm investigating…I was thinking team viewer, but it doesn't work if the user hasn't logged in I believe. What I'd like is to connect to a laptop at the lightdm greeter so I can help the user from there10:15
syn-ackI haven't used it in a while, but I believe you can do that, with TeamViewer.10:17
joshu_syn-ack I've read that a VNC server can be started at the lightdm greeter, then the issue becomes how to access a laptop that's in a remote location with unknown NAT etc…To replicate team viewer's magic I would need the laptop on power on with an internet connection to connect to say an EC2 server that I would run and then whenever I need to help the user I would connect to the EC2 server as well..This way avoiding networking issues on th10:17
joshu_ user side.10:17
syn-ackThe last time I used it was years ago, when it first hit the scene and I thought it was too clunky for my liking10:18
syn-ackjoshu_, you could have it tunnel through a VPN link to your Network10:19
syn-ackmost consumer type routers allow vpn passthrough by default.10:19
syn-ackthough it's involved, your idea isn't a bad one, joshu_10:20
lperry65should i be asking this question somewhere else?10:21
joshu_syn-ack to provide some more info essentially this custom ubuntu I'm still putting together we some difficulty will be very simple from a user perspective. User powers on laptop, lightdm greeter presented. User either connects to internet via ethernet or provided USB modem. User logs in and VPN connection is established to my firewall and then an RDP session to my windows terminal server. User works.10:21
rap_haelhi, i rebooted my computer, and login managers (either lightdm or gdm) fails to load any wm, i have to use startx, any idea ?10:21
joshu_syn-ack from my management, support perspective I need to be able to shadow/ help the user from the lightdm greeter all the way to when they've logged in and connected to vpn, rdp. However I'm trying to cover most scenarios so let's say the laptop has an internet connection, but vpn doesn't work. IN this instance I need to be able to access the laptop outside of VPN if you know what I mean.10:22
syn-ackjoshu_, then regardless you should be able to vnc in once the tunnel's up10:22
syn-ackyeah10:23
syn-ackhrm10:23
DJoneslperry65: It might be worth asking in #ubuntu-server if you don't get a reply here10:23
lperry65DJones: thanks10:23
syn-ackjoshu_, you could dual-home the connection, just in case, I suppose.10:23
syn-ackI mean, its *going* to be anyway, but, hrm10:24
joshu_syn-ack once tunnel is up I should be able to VNC and it's protected and all that. But I'm wondering what to do if VPN tunnel doesn't come up for whatever reason. I mean the system I provide a user will be configured and tested by me and ready to use, so maybe this is a non-issue?!10:24
syn-ackIt should be a relative non-issue once the bugs are worked out10:24
joshu_syn-ack btw thanks for brainstorming with me it is very useful to bounce ideas off someone ;)10:24
syn-ackThere is always an "in-case" situations, though10:25
syn-ackjoshu_, np10:25
joshu_syn-ack so do you think I'm over thinking this and should be satisfied that as long as a laptop has an internet connection (ethernet or 3G) and connects via VPN then I can shadow form lightdm and update, configure whatever I need?10:26
rhymyou got a webdev background zen?10:26
rhymoops10:27
syn-ackjoshu_, yes, but no... I feel like I'm missing something, now10:27

syn-ackjoshu_, what's your timeline looking like? workflows, etc?10:29
syn-ackyou know what, take this to a /msg10:29
A_Jiceroot okie. so UUID=XYZ /media/Data Drive ntfs-3g defaults10:41
A_Jthats it ?10:41
icerootA_J: quote Data Drive because of the whitespace10:42
A_Jokie thats it ?10:43
icerootA_J: and i dont know if you need ntfs-3g, it should be fine to use   UUID=foobar /media/DataDrive ntfs defaults10:43
icerootA_J: you can test it with "sudo mount -a" that will mount everything from fstab (which is not mounted already)10:44
A_Jyou ment single or double quotes iceroot ?10:45
icerootA_J: /media/Data\ Drive  or "/media/Data Drive" should be fine10:46
icerootA_J: but the best idea is to avoid white spaces in filenames10:46
A_Jit gave an error while booting it took it as /media/"Data.10:47
icerootA_J: "/media/Data Drive"10:47
icerootA_J: but the best idea is to avoid white spaces in filenames10:47
A_Jhmm okie. i would put in the backslash10:48
A_Jbut the keyboard is acting funny.10:48
A_Jthink the keyboard type is off.10:48
A_Jprinting funny characters when i push symbol keys10:48

bgardnerjimmyff: I wouldn't for a production system, no.11:04
hanumanhow can i install sudo apt-get things automatically using script in ubuntu11:04
jimmyff:( I guess they all most likely me packaged with 14.04 but I have to upgrade now as current server is overloaded11:06
jimmyffshould I go for a more recent none LTS release?11:06
bgardnerjimmyff: I wouldn't recommend it, no.  For a production server, that's really what the LTS releases are for.11:07
jimmyffbgardner: but 12.04 + backports is okay?11:07
bgardnerjimmyff: Much better than using PPAs, yes, in my opinion.11:08

A_Jhow do i do that now. i even tried quotes as someone suggested11:19
A_Jdidnt help11:19
k1lA_J: does the folder exist?11:19
k1lA_J: what does "mount -a" tell you?11:19
ActionParsnipA_J: or drop the space in the mount point11:19
mathfreakA_J: Do you absolutely have to mount it at /media/Data\ Drive?11:19
A_Jmathfreak if possible yes.11:20
mathfreakA_J: I personally would mount it somewhere like /media/Data_Drive. If I really wanted the whitespace, I can set up a symlink to it later.11:20
A_Ji've got torrents recheking from there11:20
KeyboardNotFoundWhere I can get source code from askubuntu.com ?11:20
A_Jhmm if that would work. i would not mind11:20
mathfreakA_J: I don't normally mount at paths with whitespace, so I'm gonna go experiment with this to see what happens.11:20
A_Jokie lets see11:21
mathfreakA_J: Okay, then! Go ahead and create the directory /media/Data_Drive, and update your fstab so that it mounts here instead.11:21
k1lA_J: again, what does mount -a give you as error?(that re-reads the fstab)11:21
mathfreakA_J: afterwards, sudo ln -s /media/Data_Drive '/media/Data Drive'11:21
OerHeksKeyboardNotFound, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ask_Ubuntu11:21

ActionParsnipServerSage: you can remaster it so that it does11:25
ActionParsnipmathfreak: not making the mount point...11:25
A_Jmathfreak it says Data drive doesnt exist.11:25
ServerSageActionParsnip: Unfortunately, not an option right now.  I have an untrained lackey in a datacenter 3000 miles from me.11:26
A_Ji think i'll reboot once mathfreak. with a working fstab then add the link]11:26
ActionParsnipA_J: sudo mkdir /media/Data\ drive     or whatever you want the mount point to be11:26
ActionParsnipServerSage: that's the only way, unless you  get a smarthands to install the service. It will autostart once installed11:26
mathfreakA_J: if you haven't already rebooted, try ActionParsnip's command. Just capitalize the D in 'drive'11:27
mathfreakA_J: and then try the sudo ln ... command again. If it still fails, give us an output of 'ls -l /media'. Paste to http://paste.ubuntu.com/ to share.11:28
ServerSageActionParsnip: What about like the alternate cd, or the live cd?11:28
A_Jokie symlink done11:30
A_Jmathfreak do a mount -a now ?11:31

mathfreakA_J: Huh. Can we get a copy of the output from the command 'ls -l /media'? Paste to http://paste.ubuntu.com/11:33
ServerSageobroni: Yeah, we had a power outtage, and when the system came back up the volume group was hosed.  So, I need to get reboot from a CD, fix it, and get it going again.11:34

mathfreakA_J: rm is for files, usually. rmdir for directories11:46
k1lryan__: make paritions, first install windows, the install ubuntu.11:46

A_JActionParsnip lol wait a second here. i dont wanna end up deleting my data11:49
ActionParsnipryan__: 252 days11:49
mathfreakA_J: Well, that's interesting, but it looks like everything's set for it to work now.11:49
obroniryan__: if required, partitions  can be resized during install11:49
mathfreakA_J: Let's double-check fstab, and then we'll try mounting11:49
ActionParsnipA_J: no bad thing11:49
ryan__ActionParsnip: Yes I know and it keeps on giving me facial error11:49
ryan__when I'm trying to install11:49

ActionParsnipryan__: you can resize NTFS in the installer to make space for Ubyntu, then install11:49
obroniryan__: do you use an old computer?11:50
ActionParsnipryan__: personally I recommend you use the entire space and wipe out the dying XP install.11:50
obroniryan__: or do you have any specific reason for win xp sp3?11:50

ActionParsnipryan__: wubi is not a long term solution btw, its a quick try before you buy. If the way you found is wubi, i suggest you dont use it11:52
obroniryan__: bye :)11:52
mathfreakA_J: I think you can remove the quotation marks around /media/Data_Drive in fstab now.11:52
bgardnerNK`: See: https://blogs.oracle.com/jeffcai/entry/release_java_access_bridge_111:53

gotwigA_J: are you a troll?11:59
A_JDeluge and Sabnzb11:59
A_Jno i'm not11:59
mathfreakA_J: One final thing. We made some dummy directories in /media while setting it up. You can use sudo rmdir '"Data' 'Data\' to remove them (note the single quotes. Type that exactly)11:59

gotwigwhy should the Ubuntu Edge be anounced today, when Mark's keynote is on Wednesday?12:03
chefkochA_J: the only thing you might want to consider: if you want to start services BEFORE you log in you have to do it in the initscripts12:03
mathfreakA_J: If you want it to start when you boot up, you're going to have to deal with the rc* scripts (and that's something I don't know very much about)12:03

chefkochwasanzy: you need to install windows, before you install ubuntu (becuase windows will not recognize ubuntu, but ubuntu recognizes windows)12:29
lotuspsychjezipy: you mean the !find trigger?12:29

=== rmichnik_ is now known as rmichnik
wasanzychefkoch: the situation now is, when ubuntu is on the machine, windows sees all the partitions but says, could not install windows on the disk, the only way I could install windows again is to format the whole disk and create new partition with the windows cd. when windows is on the machine, ubuntu doesn't see the partitions but sees it as one disk so u can only use the whole disk12:32
wasanzychefkoch: yes windows 812:33
zipylotuspsychje, lets say i have a folder with 5 .txt files, i want to find the file that cointains "hello" in it so i know which one to open12:33
lotuspsychjezipy: maybe grep can help you? man grep12:33
zipybut it doesnt open files and search in them12:34
chefkochwasanzy: ok. it is no surprise that windows does not see the ubuntu install. but ubuntu not seeing windows - that is strange12:34
zipygrep only filters12:34
anoneewasanzy this is normal, you need to read about partitioning your hard drive, ntfs and ext systems12:34
lotuspsychjezipy: hmm not sure then12:34
wasanzychefkoch:yes very strange12:34
chefkochwasanzy: usually you have 3 options during ubuntu install. 1) use all space 2) use left over space 3) manual config12:34
zipyhmm ok thx anyways12:35
chefkochwasanzy: did you get at any point of the ubuntu installation to a scrren that let's you select how to partition?12:35
lotuspsychjezipy: re-ask your issue here once in a while im sure they can solve this12:35
saiarcot895zipy: grep should be able to search in text files12:35

lotuspsychjebraulio: you can find your logs in /var/log/syslog.1 and trace down issues with your audio12:40
wasanzyanonee: I don't have any third party partiotioning software12:40
anoneemathfreak ofcourse i have the notification area in the panel, and the audio icon is there, and when i click it i get rhythm box but the volume slider is inactive..12:40
saiarcot895wasanzy: my guess is that since Ubuntu sees just one whole disk, it might be that the disk is encrypted, either with BitLocker/TPM or HP's software12:40
saiarcot895wasanzy: In windows, open up the HP Essential Tools (or something like that, forgot the name), and check if Drive Encryption is enabled12:41
wasanzysaiarcot895: ok12:42
lotuspsychjebraulio: seems like one guy solved the bug with kernel update12:43
brauliolotuspsuchje: is there a keyword that I should look for in the log? How do I do that?12:43
lotuspsychjebraulio: i think grep can do that aswell, find matches on pulseaudio example in /var/log12:44
saiarcot895zipy: you might be better off first doing a grep on the string you want to search inside the file and then another grep searching for the name of the file12:44

BlackHeartI want to dual-boot Ubuntu w/ Window 8. How to install it without messing up Windows 8 and PCs default recovery partition?13:27
BlackHeartLast time I tried, I was left with nothing except Ubuntu.13:27
ActionParsnipBlackHeart: resize NTFS in WIndows13:29
ActionParsnipBlackHeart: then install Ubuntu to the unpartitioned space13:29
ezra-sUbuntu installation is very clear showing which options you can use, if you wipe your windows partition while installing is because you don't read13:30
usr13BlackHeart: Of course, you should back up any important files first, just in case.13:31
cfhowlettezra-s, that's a bit harsh.  ubuntu is known to not see other partitions at times.13:31
Caseyif I wanted to have a raid1 for storage and be able to access the raid when I switch between OS's (windows and ubuntu) what would be best  formate scheme to us, GUID or MasterBoot?13:31
ezra-scfhowlett, alright, it might, but if you see ubuntu installation does not show the option, then you do know there is a problem.. you just don't go and select the first option "wipe the whole disk and install"13:32
usr13cfhowlett: The ubuntu user is known to not see other partitions at times.13:32
ActionParsnipCasey: as long as you use NTFS for the resultant partition(s) it will be usable in both. Not sure about the GUID/Masterboot thing13:32
ezra-sno harshness at all, one just needs to pay attention13:32
ezra-susr13, I'm with you :)13:33
cfhowlettezra-s, true I wouldn't ... but new users?  anyways, have we a solution?13:33
ActionParsnipusr13: people are just used to hitting next as fast as Michael J Fox13:33
k-josephBlackHeart: ;begin with win 8 and then then install ubuntu, i guess you are aware, it is better u shrink a seperate volume/ partition for ubuntu and leave it un allocated, on install you may allow ubuntu to partition that unallocated space automatically  for u, alot of resources are up try google incase of any issues, and to have a better knowledge base ::::: :)13:33
lewandowskiI have a problem, I am installing Ubuntu 12.04 on a windows netbook, I have a free 100GB partition. The installer shows partitions, but how do i know which one is right?13:33
ActionParsnipCasey: MBR should be ok13:33
ezra-scfhowlett, well, windows does not care a bit about whatever there is installed beforehand, Ubuntu does.. so it is a problem with the user, not Ubuntu13:33
usr13cfhowlett: One problem folks run into is already having 4 primary partitions.13:33
ezra-sif users are used to not pay attention there is not much you can do13:34
MonkeyDustlewandowski  are you now in ubuntu, a live session?13:34
cfhowlettusr13, I've got to plead ignorance.  I understood that the new UEFI did away with the 4 primary partition limit ...13:34
lewandowskiYeah,13:34
CaseyActionParsnip: Thanks for the reply, thats what I was thinking as well (either would work) but I wanted to make sure that there wasn't a more "preferred " option.13:34
BlackHeartActionParsnip, that was really *helpful*13:34
lewandowskiMonkeyDust: I am,  should i choose install beside windows?13:34
CaseyActionParsnip: thanks again.13:34
MonkeyDustlewandowski  open gparted, a windows partition is marked as NTFS, don't use that partition13:35
BlackHeartk-joseph, considering Windows 8 ins already installed, shoud I use the Windows installer or boot Ubuntu from the CD?13:35

lewandowskiMonkeyDust: Is gparted there on the live disk?13:35
* BlackHeart haven't used Ubuntu for a while ..13:35
usr13cfhowlett: And so if you already have 4 primary partitions, you have two choices; 1) Use another HD.  2) Delete one of the 4 primary partitions and create an extended one in place of it.13:35
MonkeyDustlewandowski  yes13:36
lewandowskiMonkeyDust: Ok, wait a sec, my netbook is slow as shit.13:36
ezra-shehe13:36
cfhowlettusr13, yeah I've run into that.  But  I thought UEFI didn't have that limitation ... it applied to MBR setups only?13:37
ezra-scfhowlett, yes, mbr only13:37
usr13cfhowlett: There seems to be some Win8 PC's on the market these days that have one HD with 4 primary partitions.  UEFI is another issue, a totally separate problem.13:38
k-josephBlackHeart: just shrink a new volume and leave it unallocated, then boot the live CD, on the partition part, use a manual one and then choose your unallocated space, some distributions of ubuntu allow automatic partitioning for you, all you need is to select the space and choose that option, if it is missing then you manually create the partitions your self13:38

ezra-sNTFS is a partition type, no free space13:45

lewandowskiezra-s: It says 98 GB free.13:45
lewandowskiezra-s: So i want to install it on that. can i?13:45
ezra-slewandowski, then you can do that for installing, reserve some space for swap too13:45
ezra-sswap = as much as your RAM if you want to hibernate in common setups13:46
lewandowskiezra-s: Where to set for swap?13:46
ezra-slewandowski, you make two partitions in free space one for / and another for swap13:46
ezra-sso for example 90GB for / and 8GB for swap13:47
lewandowskiezra-s: Ok. Fine. Nothing wrong right?13:47
ezra-sthere are more fancier partition layouts13:47
ActionParsnipezra-s: with 8Gb RAM, yes if you need hibernate13:47
ezra-slewandowski, no, nothing wrong.. also make backup first, because mistakes happen13:47

lewandowskiusr13: My GParted is showing the partition on /dev/sda4 as NTFS with 98 GB. I want to format the drive.13:50
ezra-slewandowski, when you install ubuntu it usually is wise knowing where it can install itself it you have doubts you can take screenshots of pictures, share them to internet and ask if you are doing it correctly13:50
lewandowskiusr13: So, should i format it to ext4 and install?13:50
ezra-slewandowski, in any case I would try to understand it better before doing anything, just as a precaution, experimentation can and will lead to error13:51

lewandowskiusr13: And i cant see it in my computer14:03

lewandowskiusr13: 96.92GB TO be precise.14:04
usr13lewandowski: Good. Now you can continue, do the Ubuntu install.14:04
lewandowskiusr13: Boot up from CD and open gparted?14:04
usr13lewandowski: Boot from the CD, it will see the empty space and will ask if you want to install on it, (you will have choice for auto or manual partitioning).14:05
lewandowskiusr13: So, take auto and choose unallocated?14:06
usr13lewandowski: That is up to you.  Look at the available options and see.14:06
lewandowskiusr13: Thnaks a million sir. I love you and this community! You guys are awesome! Goodbye Windows!14:07
usr13lewandowski: My preference is to have a separate partition for /home/. In which case you'd set a swap partition of 6G, a partition for / of about 20G and the rest for /home/ (63.?)14:08
lewandowskiusr13: Ok. So, all this is done in installer(my comp is booting up)14:09
usr13lewandowski: ... and the only reason for doing that is so that if you want to do a fresh install later on, you can just leave /home/ alone and use it in the new install.14:09
Ojolocoey guys, how could I know which one is my package? http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/toolchains/14:09
=== olaf__ is now known as zathras
lewandowskiusr13: OK. My question was this allocation for home and / is done in installer or should i do it in gparted?14:10
usr13lewandowski: You can let it do the auto partitioning and look at what it does.  It will probably create an extended partition with two logical partitions of 6 & 90G, one for swap and the other for /14:10
lewandowskiusr13: The rest should be done manually then. I will check back.14:11
usr13lewandowski: .... if you like it that way, just go with it.14:11

usr13lewandowski: Yea, it's up to you.14:12
lewandowskiusr13: Thanks. BTW, What exactly happened to ubuntuforums?14:12
usr13lewandowski: Even if you have your system files and /home/ files on the same partition, there is always the option for backing up the /home/ directory to a flash memory drive (in the event you do a nother install).14:13

usr13"the extended partition can be subdivided into multiple logical partitions"14:19
lewandowskiusr13: The thing gives me two options primary and extended. Should I first create a 6GB of swap (in the beginning) and then 90GB for root?14:20
lewandowskiusr13: sorry, primary and logical14:20

usr13and then, (if you like) the rest can be for /14:21
usr13... in which case, it will be only two [additional] partitions.  One for swap and one for /14:22
lewandowskiusr13: Swap is done.It shows unknown beside it. Proceed to root(90GB)?14:22

KerimAnybody got an idea why indiegogo requires you to fill the second address line, even though it is optional?15:26
usr13ryan_12345: Ok. Looks like you have a 40G and a 160G drive.  The 40G drive has just one partition.  The 160G drive has a 155G partion and an extended partition with only one 1.5G logical partition which is designated as swap.  You probably will want to shrink the 155G partition down to a smaller size. Right?15:26
usr13ryan_12345: I would suggest deleting the extened partition and then shrink the 155G partition to something a lot smaller.15:27
ryan_12345usr13: that's 155GiB is where I want Ubuntu to be installed15:28
usr13ryan_12345: ... but it depends on how full it is.  If it has about 50 or 60G of data on it, you could shrink it down to about 80G or so?  Maybe?15:28
ryan_12345usr13: No! stop I want 160GB on this HDD to have Ubuntu how do I do that then?15:29
usr13ryan_12345: Oh, you can do witout the data on the 160G drive?  Good, just delete all partitions on it and install on the unallocated (free) space.15:29
ryan_12345usr13: How do I do that then15:29

usr13ryan_12345: You can delete the partition on the 40G drive if you are not using it for XP.  (Again, where is XP installed?)15:33
ryan_12345usr13: the 160GiB HDD is blank and the 40GiB is the one with Windows XP on it15:33

usr13ryan_12345:  The partition size. Is it already created?  If it is too small or too large, edit it and change the size.16:17
varunendragr3c0, have you read the wiki page about UEFI installation thoroughly? It's not difficult if you understand the basics.16:18

ActionParsnipgr3c0: you'll need bumblebee for that16:22
wilee-nileeAaruni, dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages16:22
varunendraAaruni, if you haven't cleared the cache, then there is - AptOnCD16:22
wilee-nileeAaruni, Mines just a install list16:23
Aarunivarunendra: I don't know if I have cleared the cache16:23
usr13ryan_12345: Yes.  Linux-Swap (the small one).16:23
gr3c0bumblebee for the vid card?16:23
Aaruniwilee-nilee: not just install list, but the downloaded packages too.16:23
wilee-nileeI figured as such16:23
Aarunidon't want to download them again, in case I need to format my drive tomorrow16:23
varunendraAaruni, if you don't know, then you haven't.16:23
varunendraAaruni, you can browse to /var/cache/apt/archives to see if the downloaded packages are still there.16:24
ryan_12345usr13: and what do I create that as a Primary partition or a Extended partition16:24
usr13ryan_12345: And then just one more, (the rest of the drive) type=ext416:24
usr13ryan_12345: Primary16:24
ryan_12345usr13: and what about the label16:24
Aarunivarunendra: ok, there are about 900 packages there16:24
usr13ryan_12345: On which partition?16:25
ryan_12345usr13: Linux-Swap16:25
ActionParsnipAaruni: its fun to have a local package server if you have multiple PCs16:25
varunendraAaruni, you can just copy the /var/cache/apt directory as a backup, but it'll take extra efforts to make them recognised as a software source. aptoncd makes it easy.16:25
usr13ryan_12345: On the first one, (the small one, swap).16:25
usr13ryan_12345: Yes, Linux-Swap16:25
Aarunivarunendra: thanks.16:25
ryan_12345usr13: so the first partition is called swap16:26
varunendraAaruni, what ActionParsnip suggested is an even advanced option, for networks. :)16:26
Ahti333i have some packages kept back during apt-get upgrade, amongst them is linux-image-generic, should i expect any trouble when apt-get dist-upgrading?16:26
wilee-nileeAhti333, Thats the command used16:26
Aarunivarunendra, ActionParsnip : not looking for networks. its just that I may need to format my drive, and don't want to waste bandwidth downloading the packages again. I just downloaded the whole thing yesterday16:27
usr13ryan_12345: Yes16:27
varunendraAaruni, if you install aptoncd (sudo apt-get install aptoncd), make sure to also install 'hal' package (sudo apt-get install hal).16:27
ryan_12345usr13: now what about the second partition is that a primary or a exteneded partition16:27
usr13ryan_12345: Primary16:27
ryan_12345usr13: and the file system for the second partition16:27
usr13ext416:27
Ahti333wilee-nilee i know ;) what i am not sure about is wether upgrading the kernel on a production server is a thing that i should just do without making tons of backups etc beforehand16:28
Aarunivarunendra: what's hal ?16:28
Ahti333^^16:28
varunendraAaruni, be informed that this backup will only work for the same architecture, same version of Ubuntu.16:28
Aarunivarunendra: planning to install the same thing. 12.04 64bit16:28
ryan_12345usr13: and the label for the second partition16:28
varunendraAaruni, it is just a supporting package, without which the "Restore" button in its gui doesn't work.16:28
wilee-nileeAhti333, We don't know what you have there, backups are always a good thing.16:28

I told him its because it lows me to access the machine in the most powerful way, requiring the least amount of bandwidth, all on only one software port of access. My opinion, still better than vpn, as i hear stories and experience frequent drop outs. Ssh seems much more reliable, and very configurable. I17:27

dwrit is my initials18:52
Slartryan_12345: no problems during the install? Is this a brand new computer? uefi bios?18:52
varunendradwr, I'll try if you wish. Meanwhile, check again "lsmod | grep -e b43 -e wl" ===> is wl still there? Is b43 there?18:53
dwrHey! It works!18:53

ryan_12345Slart: It asks me if I want to select which OS (cause I have 2 HDD18:55
dwrYay for varuendra!18:55
wilee-nileeR0b0t1, you get a key missing?18:55
varunendradwr, if you wish to keep using Ubuntu on it, remember - always just install the "linux-firmware-nonfree" package anyhow, and DO NOT install the proprietary driver (wl, aka bcmwl-kernel-source).18:56
varunendraMorph4me, thanx ! :) Although I suspect it was the 'loaded' state of wl that was more problematic. (causing the freezes)18:56
Morph4mevarunendra, as a side not sudo apt-get install linux-firmware-nonfree ...< works18:57
Morph4menote*18:57
Questis there a program for ubuntu that is similar to corel paint ? I need to use it for writing and drawing with my mouse pen tablet?18:57
varunendraMorph4me, that was my first attempt, but she didn't have a working internet connection.18:57
Morph4meawe!18:58
PiciQuest: I've heard good things about krita18:58
dwrok im getting off his machine now!18:58
wilee-nileeR0b0t1, If you are getting the missing key showing run sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys "missing  key"18:58
varunendraMorph4me, fortunately, that package doesn't have any dependencies. :)18:58
dwrthank you so much, you fricking genius18:58
QuestPici,  hm.18:58
PiciQuest: It'll probably pull in a bunch of KDE dependencies though.18:59
Morph4mevarunendra you made her day :)18:59
R0b0t1wilee-nilee: No, I do not get a missing key message18:59
Slartryan_12345: ok.. so you do get the grub screen at bootup.. but it won't load the proper os, correct?18:59
R0b0t1Just says not authed18:59
varunendraMorph4me, this is actually the first time a bcm4311 took so long !18:59
R0b0t1wilee-nilee: "WARNING: The following packages cannot be authenticated!" Then prompts for install, default of no.19:00
ryan_12345Slart: Yes19:00
Morph4melol next time check > ls /etc/modprobe.d/* for bcm  ...j/k you stuck with it and got it working for her ...good stuff19:01
wilee-nileeR0b0t1, Right but does it show something like this "B998019EC07BBEC4" in that notification?19:01
Slartryan_12345: I'm not really familiar with the new grub.. there used to be commands to make grub look around on the hard drives for operating systems to boot and configure itself more or less automatically.. but I'm not really sure how to do that with grub 219:01
wilee-nileeR0b0t1, best here really is to pastebin the whole sudo apt-get update or installs.19:01
ryan_12345Slart: right okay19:02
trismQuest: mypaint is pretty nice19:02

ianorlinyes they do different things19:24
sethjwilee-nilee, I don't necessarily see how that applies.. unless you think installing the Qt sdk will get me those libs..19:25
mengesbwhere ever the ++ lands, means |this side|var = do op on var, then run; var|this side| = loop execution then op; makes sense to me19:25

mengesb<-- believes only in var++ syntax19:25

fpsi could not parse that sentence19:26
mengesbsetting a var, then executing math on something you just set while defining a loop is somewhat idiotic19:26
reisioluckily you don't have to pick only one approach19:26
wilee-nileeno prob19:26
reisioas there are many19:26
fpsmengesb: well, c++ 11 has for (auto i : mycontainer) { /* do something with i */ }19:27
mengesbfor ( i = val ; val |op| value ; val|operation| ) is predictable - since you initiate on i = val, not i = (val++)19:27
fpsmengesb: kinda like in java. noone should have to declare integer variables just to iterate over a colletion19:27
fpsmengesb: i still don't get your reasoning.. also your pseudocode syntax is strange..19:28
bazhangfps, how does this relate to ubuntu support19:28
axisyswhat is that tool to diff between directories starting with letter `m' ? I forgot.. anyone can help remember?19:28
mengesbwhat I've found is that people who use ++var want indexes of 1, and those who operate with var++ are those who can handle counting from zero19:28

DreamPCsHey guys, what's going on?20:31
RoflWaffle17The weird thing is it just started happening last night....I've had this VM for about 2 weeks.20:31
RoflWaffle17So I don't know what went wrong and when it went wrong :(20:32
DreamPCsI have a question. Is there a relatively simply way to implement a duress password? A password that can be entered under duress to present a fake or decoy user account?20:32
reisioDreamPCs: while still showing your ordinary user at login?20:32
DreamPCsExactly20:33
reisioDreamPCs: it'd be simpler, I believe, to just disable the user name showing at login, and have an entirely fake user+pass20:33
rodrigograca31I'm back :)20:33

reisiorodrigograca31: it was compromised20:35
rodrigograca31reisio: yes....20:35
reisioprobably by someone who knew about a known exploit to vbulletin, but that is conjecture on my part20:35
DreamPCsThanks, reisio, I read most of those links and it looks like the easiest way would be to use something like truecrypt to have a hidden volume.20:35

Skaagcan I change individual colors in a theme? like the background color of an inactive tab?20:36
dlpenguinloverRoflWaffle17: You might need to reinstall VMWare tools as your graphics card (i assume you tried installing your nvidia drivers) is totally seperate from the VM. I'm not sure how to do that though as all of my ubuntu vm's are in virtualbox.20:36
rodrigograca31reisio: i jsut heard it some minutes ago, i need to read some articles about it :)20:36
DreamPCsNot my own suspicion, but other's suspicion if I'm forced to login under duress.20:36
reisioDreamPCs: well, that's for data more than just login20:36

fuzzyBunnyi'm running 12.04 LTS and i'm having trouble with my flashplayer constantly crashing. On the flash website it says im running 11.2 but in my addons page it says im running 2 different versions of flash 11.2 and 12.1. If I try to disable either one flash does not work at all. Any suggestions?20:55

wilee-nileefuzzyBunny, there is no 12.1 are you sure?20:56
fuzzyBunnyYeah I'm at the Firefox Addons Page and the title of the version says Shockwave Flash 12.1 r720, maybe that's different than my flash player though for watching videos and such?20:58
usr13fuzzyBunny: 11.2 is what you should have. See: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/?&utsm=0350d39669c347c21:00
wilee-nileefuzzyBunny, you been to github lightspark sound familiar?21:00

fuzzyBunnyWell I have that also yes.21:01
rodrigograca31bekks: by encrypted i meain hashed or what "you" want to call it :)21:01
bekksrodrigograca31: hashing is totally different from encrypting. And because of the difference, you cannot decrypt a MD5 hash.21:01
fuzzyBunnyYea I did try lightspark it didn't seem to work so well. My best thought was reverting to an old stable version but I can't seem to find one. So I would be grateful for a link to an old version, however, if there is another way to fix the problem I would be fine with that also.21:02

reisiosavagejen: I don't see why not21:20
anoneereisio: why do you think so?21:20
anoneereisio I mean about being implemented on purpose...21:22
reisioanonee: because hidden files start with periods, so someone made the conscious decision to hide .desktop files, and hide them well21:22
reisiothey didn't just say 'treat as hidden', they said 'hide always'21:22
gerigordonjcp: i entered this in apt.conf http://codepaste.net/hxhfeo21:22
anoneereisio then it's not a bug?21:22
gordonjcpgeri: try just http://21:23

gordonjcpgeri: also I take it that is an anonymised domain name?21:23
gerigordonjcp: yes...why?21:23
gordonjcpgeri: just wondering21:24
anoneereisio but it's still weird, because hidden files are not displayed in terminal unless you ls -a, but these are listed without the -a21:24
gerigordonjcp: still not found :(21:24
reisioanonee: a bug is anything that's imperfect, not just things that are accidental :p21:24
gordonjcpgeri: sometimes people pastebin stuff that has example URLs in, and they actually literally have "blah.example.com" in their config ;-)21:24
reisioanonee: probably GNOME 3 upstream said "hey let's hide all dem files"21:24
reisioGNOME likes to hide things21:24

akurilinWhat is canonical expectation for what distro version you should be installing as a home user if you want the latest goodies and you don't really need production-grade stability?22:00
akurilin13.04?22:00
Dr_williserr ubuntu edge is not 'out' its been announced. ;P   big differance.22:00
k1l_akurilin: yes22:01
rodrigograca31Ubuntu Edge? what is that? and $32,000,000 ..... what? lol22:01
akurilink1l_, what happens once the distro expires? Is the expectation to go through an upgrade process?22:01
Dr_willisrodrigograca31,  a ubuntu phone..22:01
jribakurilin: latest stable release is 13.04, yes22:02
akurilink1l_, jrib, How likely is the upgrade to completely bork the OS and how likely are you to be better off reinstalling the latest version from scratch?22:02
Dr_willisrodrigograca31,  i will belive in it wheni actually see them available to buy. and i bet the Price willbe rather large22:02
k1l_akurilin: yes. after 9 month it looses support and you are asked to upgrade to the 13.1022:02
=== Simson-san|away is now known as Simson-san
jribakurilin: not very likely unless you do unsupported things (like lots of unofficial repositories not meant for your distro version)22:02
k1l_akurilin: upgrades work well. but backup is handy anyway22:02
Strabosex: If it is relevant, they stopped auto-mounting after I had KDE cop out on me (couldn use it) - I reset it by changing the kde folder to kde.old so everything got reset22:02
reisioheh22:03
akurilink1l_, jrib, I've hit some kernel panic during boot issues last time I did a the lts hardware enablement trick on 12.04 so I'm a bit suspicious of updates now..22:03

StraboI posted it22:05
Strabohttp://pastebin.com/WuVxpbQ622:06
akurilink1l_, jrib, as a prevention measure, could one remove that PPA and nuke all the packages from it and then try an upgrade?22:06
akurilinor is that not really that effective?22:06
Straboor maybe I didn't - my mistake!22:06
jribakurilin: you could.  I would probably wait for it to cause an issue first and then try to sort it out22:06
k1l_akurilin: yes, ppas get disabled on upgrade anyway. but the ppa packages stay. and sometimes they break stuff22:07

draconus2hm... what could be wrong with my nginx? kernel: php5-fpm[21665]: segfault at 7fff06e94ff8 ip 000000000066c6fb sp 00007fff06e95000 error 6 in php5-fpm[400000+79e000]23:30
draconus2getting lots of that in kern.log and my box even froze two times today... might be related due to the flood of that error?23:31

Hilikusis it possible to configure ubuntu to use twinView for a dual screen setup ONLY when i turn the second monitor on, but to single when i turn the monitor off? i don't use it all the time so right now things might appear in the second monitor when it is off23:39
Hilikusi'm using an nvidia card with the binary drivers23:39
AprelHilikus: what kind of connections? HDMI? VGA?23:41

Prufrockraymond_, Hi, I'm back.23:44
Guest60441YAY PRUFROCK IS BACK23:44
AprelHilikus: Not sure, but I doubt that's possible. Skimming the WP article on VGA, I don't see any feedback to the garphics card that could tell it when the screen is on or off.23:45
HilikusAprel: that's what i thought23:45
Hilikus:S23:45
raymond_Prufrock, did it panic again? :(23:45
pepper_chicook guys, I've done my duty, I've pledged for an UbuntuEdge23:46
Prufrockraymond_, I couldn't determine the exact time of the crash. But I also have another, probably related problem, of the system failing to come back up after a hibernate/suspend, and here's part of the kernel.log at that time: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5902292/23:46
AprelHilikus: HDMI *might* be able to give that feedback, but even if it does, I don't haven't heard of nVidia drivers supporting that.23:46
pozhey guys, i have a problem! my desktop is scrolling23:46
pozlike it does not all fit on the screen23:47
pozlike what is up with that?23:47
usr13poz: What is the screen size now?   xrandr23:48
poz i think it fixed it, it was a display res problem23:48
pozbut the unity dash still takes up the entire screen instead of just the corron23:48

AprelIs there any way to boot from an Ubuntu live cd, make some configurations in the ram environment (like install new software packages, change a few settings, etc.), and then "burn" that new environment to a disc and be able to boot from that read-only?23:49

valroadieOK! So, I don't want anything about, "It is HIGHLY advised against!" I know I know ok? This is linux, I want to manipulate it! ;) NOW! I want to run terminal in root, but EVERYTIME I start it, I want it in root. No sudo su, sudo, gksu or anything. Is there a way to do this? I also prefer somethign that doesn't require a pass when it is started as that is defeating the purpose of what I want to do.23:54
Prufrockraymond_, Okay, it just did now. :) I got a picture this time: http://imgur.com/tSUkF2i I hope it helps.. :(23:55
raymond_Prufrock, just a sec here I'll have to deblur it ^_^23:56
usr13valroadie: What do you have against passwords and sudo?23:56
Prufrockraymond_, Take your time :)23:56
valroadieusr13, they are waste of my typing time ;)23:56
usr13valroadie: You must do very little if typing passwords are such a significant part of your time.23:58
usr13valroadie: You should reconsider your stand on this issue.23:58
valroadieMy stand is, linux is my playground and I want to play in the restricted zone! haha. Why isn't this easy? Noone will tell me how to do it or if it is even POSSIBLE. I feel like I am the only one who dares to do this lol23:59
Prufrockraymond_, also, here's what I think is the relevant part of the kernel.log: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5902330/23:59
gordonjcpvalroadie: what are you trying to do?23:59
Aprelusr13: haha, valroadie already said he knows it's not ubuntu-advised.23:59
valroadiegordonjcp, trying to run term in root when it starts EVERYTIME. no sudo su, no sudo, just root when it starts23:59
