sig_whiteMeh.At least this time around Ubuntu's wireless network drivers seem to be working properly. That was the reason I abandoned installing Ubuntu on the previous notebook (~2-3 years ago)00:03
wilee-nileesig_white, Some windows users just save all the install packages and have a install media, some images, I would not rely on the recovery partition is all. If you have pro or above you have unlimited backups on board, legally only one image, personally I have three externals one is 2 terrabyte the others are a bit smaller the big one was 100$, cheap insurance.00:03
JeremyTikiHey guys, I'm trying to install some new software on my Ubuntu server, but when I use 'sudo apt-get package' it throws an error and says to run 'sudo apt-get -f install' so I do and this pops up http://paste.ubuntu.com/5909398/00:03
akurilinHow do I decide where to play group membership of a user on my machine? It looks like I could specify it both under /etc/user and under /etc/passwd. Is there a "correct way"?00:03
JeremyTikiI've read through a couple different answers (like deleting old files from /boot) but nothing seems to work00:04
k1lWill: support only here in the channel00:04
k1lWill: yes, that will reload the packages00:04
pepeeJeremyTiki, try installing linux-image-3.2.0-40-generic00:06
JeremyTikiHow do I do that? Sorry I'm still kind of new to it00:07
pepeesudo apt-get install linux-image-3.2.0-40-generic00:07
sig_whitewilee-nilee: I should really burn the recovery image to a DVD some time (tomorrow?). Disk backups don't really help me, though. Backing up the important data is why I use Wuala in the first place. For the rest I am honest enough to know I'm too lazy to do it properly (i.e. regularly), so the added benefit would be neglible.00:07

as0tany idea?00:32
DekadeI do too, but basicly the only reason I launch windows is to play a game with my mate.00:32
Dekadeand I havent found it to be too cooperative just yet00:32
Dekadeworks great for everything else, but gaming00:32
th0rDekade, if you try to install windows after linux, you will lose grub and have to reinstall and reconfigure it. Basically, when windows is installed it 'takes back' the computer. Can't speak for00:33
th0rwin8 though00:33
akurilinHow do I decide where to play group membership of a user on my machine? It looks like I could specify it both under /etc/user and under /etc/passwd. Is there a "correct way"?00:33

doomlordi've damaged my gtk themes i think .. is there a way to grab the originals without reinstalling everything . i put stuff in ~/.themes, but i might have changed them elsewhere too. (i;ve renamed ~/.themes to prevent it being used)00:35
Dekadethnx man ;)00:35
doomlordchanging something leaves all sorts of inconsistencies ... i was after a true dark-theme desktop, but it just breaks things, all the apps i use have one critical elemment that will be inverted and look a mess00:36
wilee-nileedoomlord, Unity?00:36
doomlordyes i'm using the unity desktop00:37
wilee-nileedoomlord, Which release?00:37
doomlord13.04 . i had a load of extra gtk themes in ~/.themes ... i got rid of them. i seem to have some residual changes i must have made in the system files00:37
doomlordcant even remember where they should be00:38
wilee-nileedoomlord, You can reset the whole shebang to stock. http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2013/04/how-to-reset-unity-compiz-in-ubuntu-12-10-and-13-04  If you have added PPA's though I would purge them first that may fix it.00:39
doomlordthanks i will try00:39
wilee-nileedoomlord, I am assuming the damage is not to extensive like any stock configs removed.00:40
doomlordi recall adjusting colours in some config file...00:41

poppy_liveloopJeremyTiki: the "KeyError: 'linux-image-server'" is the cause of the crash01:14
JeremyTikireally? I thought the error would be something to do with ImportError: No module named debian.deb822"01:15
poppy_liveloopJeremyTiki: but i wasn't around to see what the problem was before; i'm going to guess you have added or removed apt repositories01:15
poppy_liveloopJeremyTiki: well, that certainly is an error! it's just happening later, and so could be operating under different assumptions01:16
JeremyTikiThe error was when I would run "apt-get install -f" it would throw an error that said something about not enough disk space.01:16

=== Tomorrow is now known as Cover
wilee-nileeShira, Do you really need encryption if that is the problem?01:30
cfhowlettluiz, greetings01:30
petriborgshira  it happens when / while it goes to the ubuntu shutdown screen / animation ?01:30
junktextShira, I've had your problem actually.  You can try this change documented here: http://junktext.net/notes/Note04.txt  However, try using "nomodeset" instead of "noplymouth" when you get to that step.01:30
JeremyTikiWell I'm using the system in question as a server, but that came up whenever I try to run 'apt-get -f install'01:30
varunendraJeremyTiki, did you try installing again after an update? All hits suggest to me that you only did it this time.01:30
junktextThis fixed my Samsung laptop, Shira.01:30
luiz cfhowlett where are you from?01:30
=== Cover is now known as Cold
Shirapetriborg yes, no animation, only a black screen or sometimes my monitor (grafic card) turns off completly01:31
JeremyTikivarunendra instalying what? linux-server?01:31
varunendraJeremyTiki, whatever you are trying to install.01:31
cfhowlettluiz, linux land.  what's your ubuntu issue?01:32
junktextShira, yeah it was a problem with my video driver, which the "nomodeset" option from GRUB helps alleviate.01:32
petriborgshira oh so it just fades to black and you don't get anything else? have you tried going to the command console and running "sudo shutdown -h now" ?01:32
luiz12.0401:32
JeremyTikiIm not trying to install anythin in particular. I just ran 'apt-get install -f'01:32
=== Cold is now known as Curtain
petriborgyeah i think junktext 's solution might be good shira01:32
Shirajunktext i had no problem with my graficcard before, also with the same nvidia driver01:33
JeremyTikivarunendra Initially I was trying to do "apt-get install python-MySQLdb", but then it said to run "apt-get -f install" and here we are01:33
junktextWell, you said you installed a new version of Ubuntu, right?01:33
Shirapetriborg yes, ubuntu turns off and switch to the commando screen but i get only a black screen01:34
poppy_liveloopJeremyTiki: actually, try apt-get -m install python-MySQLdb01:34
Shirapetriborg no but i will try it out01:34
varunendraJeremyTiki, I just looked over here, so sorry if I'm missing something critical, but this in your error part - "Need to get 0 B/4,104 B of archives" suggests you may have broken packages in cache, causing the error.01:34
Shirajunktext i will also try it out01:34
junktextYeah, can't hurt.  If you don't like the "nomodeset", you can just go back to the old boot-up sequence.01:34
poppy_liveloopJeremyTiki: that will cause apt to ignore missing packages, which in your case appears to be linux-server and linux-image-server01:35
petriborgshira - yeah i would hit up the F1 kernel console and see if  shutdown -h now results in the same problem - if it does then it might not be your graphics driver but something else screwing up01:35
JeremyTikivarunendra someone suggested  cleaning out my cache and gave a command, I ran it but still we got the same error01:35
cfhowlettvarunendra, I had him run apt-get clean, remove and autoremove ... didn't do what I thought it would do ...01:36
poppy_liveloopJeremyTiki: well, i think varunendra is suggesting re-running that after your recent running of "apt-get update" ... you did already update before trying all of this, right?01:36
JeremyTikiYeah01:36
JeremyTikipoppy_liveloop yeah I did01:36
poppy_liveloopJeremyTiki: yeah, i would have imagined01:36
varunendraJeremyTiki, if you already haven't I'd suggest to try - "sudo apt-get update" then "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" then try "sudo apt-get install --reinstall linux-image-server linux-server"01:36
Shirapetriborg, junktext. no i have installed my ubuntu 13.04 new because i had installed gnome 3.8 and wantet to deinstall but in the middle part the deinstallation have stocked and my pc is turned off, after that i have start it again and the system was messed up. so i have make a complete new install with encryption01:36
petriborgshira, oh i see, yuck01:37
petriborgi hate it when i screw up the window manager01:38
varunendracfhowlett, I would have suggested apt-get clean too.01:38
Shirapetriborg btw, when ubuntu starts, i get after driver update a strange start screen, same as before but with text lines under the screen01:38

wilee-nileeShira, You familiar with PPA-Purge?01:39
junktextHmm, interesting.  Well, I am using encryption on my hdd as well and had the same problems you were describing.  The fix I posted worked for me, which I guess kills two birds with one stone (verbose boot + no weird reboot hangs).  If my fix doesn't work, just let me know.01:39
poppy_liveloopJeremyTiki: it sounds like you're a python dev since you're installing python-MySQLdb; that KeyError means linux-image-server wasn't even in the package list. If you are a python dev, you could always read /usr/bin/apt-listchanges to see what it's even on about01:39
barrettif dhclient -r is supposed to release my ip address, why does it still show it there in ifconfig afterwards?01:39

Shirapetriborg, junktext after i have restart my pc with the command reboot, the system shutdown an restart works01:52
petriborgso it only has problems from within the window manager01:53
Shirapetriborg, junktext no, now also the normal restart and shutdown works01:53
varunendraJeremyTiki, those last lines in your "sources.list" file... are those repositories compatible with Precise? Have you cross-checked on the PPAs?01:53
petriborgshira, oh so it fixed itself01:54
poppy_liveloopJeremyTiki: can you run `ls /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/debian/`?01:54
JeremyTikivarunendra the webmin sources? I think they are, how can I check01:54
JeremyTikipoppy_liveloop cannot access /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/debian/: No such file or directory01:55
p014kHello. What is the difference between sort -n and sort -g?01:55
varunendraJeremyTiki, whatever PPA or guide page you followed should mention it.01:55
poppy_liveloopvarunendra: JeremyTiki: on a quick look, they seem fine; something appears to be hosed in his python install01:55
Shirapetriborg, junktext yes, thanks for the hhelp  but i have a little last question, i have installed my system with encryption. When now anybody would get my hdd and try to get the data with a other pc from a other os, can he get it or is it same strong as truecrypt? because i have never used other encryption programms01:55
poppy_liveloopJeremyTiki: do you use easy_install as root?01:56
varunendrapoppy_liveloop, those .py file related messages are something new to me as well, so can't deny that possibility.01:56
JeremyTikipoppy_liveloop I might ahve over the past Im not sure01:56
petriborgshira, you let ubuntu encrypt your home directory? is this what you mean?01:56
poppy_liveloopJeremyTiki: well, now's a good day to learn about virtualenv :)01:56
JeremyTikiI already have a pretty good working knoweldge of virtualenv01:56
JeremyTikiThats why all my posts have (jeremylspencer.com) before them01:57
JeremyTikiI have one active now01:57
poppy_liveloopJeremyTiki: because if that's missing, your system python install might be hosed01:57
Shirapetriborg, junktext no, i have select the system encryption from the ubuntu setup screen and also the personal encryption from the user pw window from the ubuntu setup01:57
poppy_liveloopJeremyTiki: most of the ubuntu infrastructure is in python, and depends on not being poked too much01:57
Shirapetriborg, junktext and now i want know, when anybody get my hdd if he can get all data when e install it into a other pc and try to get my data via other os01:58
varunendraJeremyTiki, please show the output of "apt-cache show linux-headers-server | grep -i version"01:58
cfhowlettShira, given time and serious effort, encryption can be defeated ... but not easily.01:58
mmunis it possible to use a package for saucy in precise? I'd like to install the latest version of this package: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/opencv01:59
JeremyTikivarunendra http://paste.ubuntu.com/5909629/01:59
petriborgshira - I see, sorry I don't know much about this setup, so take with a grain of salt, I feel that this is probably "very secure"  at least against most criminals, though i'm sure the NSA could break it :-)01:59
poppy_liveloopJeremyTiki: I personally use easy_install --prefix=$HOME/local pkgname and have added ~/local/bin to my path for any "system" python installs, and virtualenv for project-specific installs02:00
JeremyTikipoppy_liveloop I'm starting to notice that, I deffinately need to be more careful and use virtualenv more02:00
Shiracfhowleft, petriborg ah because my last system was windows with full hdd encryption aes via truecrypt and a very strong and long generatet password with many bit randoms02:00
Shiracfhowleft, petriborg i have heard that this is one of the strongest and physical unbreakable methode02:00
poppy_liveloopJeremyTiki: unfortunately a bunch of recipes use sudo with the tools, which is dangerous to linux, mac, bsd...02:01
cfhowlettShira, you asked if it's possible to hack.  it is.  Just not easily hacked.02:01
Shiracfhowleft, petriborg i only know the firewire methode (truecrypt)02:01
poppy_liveloopJeremyTiki: aside from the python problems, the path that varunendra is on is that the versions for the linux kernel packages aren't matching02:02
varunendraJeremyTiki, do you have an older kernel installed?02:02
varunendrapoppy_liveloop, yup you got me :D02:02
poppy_liveloopJeremyTiki: varunendra: I'm just confused what those packages even do - ubuntu doesn't even have a "server" kernel as of 12.04 - they're the same thing.02:02
dance4xanyone have some recommendations for a new ubuntu laptop?02:02
cfhowlettdance4x, system 7602:03
varunendrawell, their existence suggests maybe they're not same, poppy_liveloop02:03
cfhowlettdance4x, or the dell sputnik02:03
poppy_liveloopdance4x: http://dell.com/ubuntu02:03
dance4xcfhowlett i have been looking at the ultrapro from system7602:03
JeremyTikivarunendra : 3.2.0-49-generic is what I have when I run uname -a02:03
Shiracfhowleft, give it a way to make it same protected like truecrypts complete hdd system encryption?02:03
JeremyTikiclear02:04
JeremyTikishit wrong window02:04
varunendraJeremyTiki, uname only shows current kernel.02:04
JeremyTikivarunendra How do I find out if I have older kernels then?02:04
dance4xnot sure i really need an ultrabook. anyone here have experience when it comes to longevity of system76 laptops?02:04
varunendraJeremyTiki, figuring out.. :P02:05
dance4xi have had 2 acer laptops and both have crapped out around the 2 year mark02:05
petriborgshira, any system can be hacked frankly, most will break your box by attacking it via virus or spear-fishing email, very few will be taking an "offline" style attack (governments) if a thief steals your machine he'll just erase it anyway or sell the parts :-) — most actual hackers want to take over your system while your still running it :-)02:05
Shiracfhowleft, yes that i know but i mean when he have get it physical02:06
varunendraJeremyTiki, try - "dpkg -s linux-image-generic | grep -i version"02:06
poppy_liveloopdance4x: if you want the "compatible with all free OSes" go for thinkpad X or T series02:06
cfhowlettShira, you're asking for 100% bulletproof protection.  no such thing.  consider; there's now a device for sale that will mirror a locked apple/android device.  cops flash clone your equipment and crack it at their leisure.  and for every encryption scheme, someone somewhere has or will crack it.  Your current setup would likely deter the script kiddies and those who are looking for easy targets.02:06
joebCan someone assist with an issue I'm having. Upon login all I get is my wallpaper in 13.04. No Unity or anything02:06
Shiracfhowleft, so when anybody build in the hdd in there own pc and want to look whats on them02:06
JeremyTikivarunendra http://paste.ubuntu.com/5909644/02:07
poppy_liveloopjoeb: ctrl-alt-F2 will bring you to a virtual console, you can login and run commands to poke around from there02:07
dance4xpoppy_liveloop im pretty happy with ubuntu. not sure i would want to switch to anything else02:07
joebpoppy_liveloop: Yes, I have one already open.02:07
poppy_liveloopjoeb: ctrl-alt-F7 brings you back to desktop02:07
joebpoppy_liveloop: Yep, being using one to restart lightdm after changes. Nothing seems to work.02:08
cfhowlettShira, don't keep the swiss bank account numbers on your hard drive.  back up everything.  expect to get hacked/cracked at some point.  that's really the best advice I can give you.02:08
varunendraJeremyTiki, eh, wrong package, replace "linux-image-generic" with "linux-image-server"02:08
joebpoppy_liveloop: I'm seeing my ~/.xsession-errors "compiz (core) - Fatal: No composite extension"02:08
JeremyTikivarunendra Version: 3.2.0.40.4802:09

JeremyTikivarunendra Version: 3.2.0.40.48 Config-Version: 3.2.0.39.4702:09
poppy_liveloopjoeb: yikes, not my field of expertise. Sounds like pathing is wrong in a config somewhere02:09
Shiracfhowleft, yes i have only ask because the news that the fbi failed to crack a truecrypt hdd02:09
poppy_liveloopJeremyTiki: so, from the package page: http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise-updates/linux-server02:09
poppy_liveloopJeremyTiki: i think it's just a broken package02:09
Shiracfhowleft, news title: FBI fails to decrypt suspect's hard drives - after 12 months of trying02:10
JeremyTikipoppy_liveloop so how can I fix it?02:10
petriborgshira, there is news that the FBI failed to crack most encrypted systems (at least those without an explicit back door)02:10
cfhowlettShira, did you also read that the NSA claims they can NOT search their own databases for email?  SOMEBODY lying!02:10
varunendraJeremyTiki, do you get grub menu when you boot?02:11
poppy_liveloopJeremyTiki: varunendra: here is the link explaining that as of 12.04 the server and desktop kernel are the same: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ServerFaq#What.27s_the_difference_between_desktop_and_server.3F02:11
petriborgshira but the FBI would just say "give us the password or go to jail" see all news about that :-/02:11
mmunis a backport absolutely necessary to install newer release versions of a package, or is there some kind of manual override if I have all the required dependencies installed?02:11
petriborgcfhowlett, yeah! hah02:11
poppy_liveloopJeremyTiki: try apt-get-f remove linux-server linux-image-server02:11
JeremyTikiI can't say, I mostly use the server over ssh since I set it up last year.02:11
Shirapetriborg not for me, i live in germany :)02:11
cfhowlettShira, oh well then.  you're completely safe because there is NO surveillance apparatus in Germany ...02:12
varunendrahmmm.... poppy_liveloop I think it's a good thing. Thanks for the link :)02:12
JeremyTikipoppy_liveloop throws http://paste.ubuntu.com/5909659/02:12
cfhowlettmmun, preferred method is to use backport, but you could do the manual thing ...02:12
poppy_liveloopLOL02:13
JeremyTikipoppy_liveloop import debian.deb822 keeps coming up over and over again in almost every error02:13
poppy_liveloopJeremyTiki: aaaannnnddd we're back to the fact that you have a broken python install02:13
Shiracfhowleft, i only ask  if any can crack my encrypted system without any back door and when they have my hdd if they can crack it than02:13
=== william is now known as Guest16662
JeremyTikipoppy_liveloop Yupp02:13
poppy_liveloopJeremyTiki: might be worth a reinstall at this point02:13
varunendraJeremyTiki, one possible way to fix it could be to boot with the older kernel, then try updating-upgrading from there, and also reinstalling the offending packages.02:13
Shiracfhowleft, sry if i ask so much but i want a system that i very secure02:14
poppy_liveloopJeremyTiki: or i guess you could search for all installed python packages and reinstall them...02:14
petriborgshira, cfhowlett - yeah germany was very upset because they wanted to setup their own NSA spy net like the UK and USA har :(02:14
Shiracfhowleft, *is02:14
petriborgshira - the disk is secure - my point is that they won't attack you via the disk, they will attack you via the browser and email02:14
JeremyTikipoppy_liveloop the fresh install seems easier.02:15
daftykinsShira: are you doing illegal things with your computer? :(02:15
Shirapetriborg yes that i have understand but i mean if there can crack my hdd only when they have the hdd in there hands02:15
JeremyTikipoppy_liveloop fix all the problems iwth one sweep02:15
cfhowlettpetriborg, I lived in Berlin for 2 years, checkpoint charlie, the secret police archives all that.  Best believe if the government wants to watch it's citizens online, it can do so quite easily.02:16
poppy_liveloopJeremyTiki: well, good luck with your django experiments when you're done! :)02:16
mmuncfhowlett: there is no backport, unfortunately. Is it possible to force the .deb's to download and install? I'm fairly certain I have all the dependencies.02:16
JeremyTikipoppy_liveloop, varunendra, Well thanks for your help guy02:16
Shiradaftykins no but im a person they have a big point in secure stuff, i want all very secure, house, car also my pc02:16
cfhowlettmmun, go to the package site, download the .deb and then sudo dpkg -i foo.deb02:16
petriborgcfhowlett - oh i totally agree with you, that was the joke :)02:16
poppy_liveloopShira: using full disk encryption is commendable, but certainly requires a certain patience for debugging02:16
poppy_liveloopJeremyTiki: you're welcome!02:16
mmuncfhowlett: Alright, I'll give it a shot02:17
tigris_hi guys, i am trying to run `sudo apt-get update` and it keeps hanging on the first line with "% [Connecting to us.archive.ubuntu.com (2001:67c:1562::13)] [Connecting to security.ubuntu.com (2001:67c:1562::13)]"02:17
WillxHey guys, I have what I believe is a very trivial problem but cannot figure out how to fix. My mozilla internet  "window" is up past my screen. I cannot grab the bar to move and resize it02:17
Shirapoppy_liveloop thats why i have ask if the ubuntu setup encryption is a full encryption02:17
petriborgShira - heh how did you secure your car (just wondering) my car key was only 48 bits of encryption - its pathetic!02:17
poppy_liveloopShira: sadly it's not the default everywhere, so there are still sharp edges to it02:17
cfhowlettShira, http://www.unixmen.com/linux-tutorials/1623-9-best-practices-to-secure-your-linux-desktop-and-server02:17
poppy_liveloopShira: the LVM encryption is full-disk, yes. The homedir is not, it is ecryptfs.02:18
varunendraJeremyTiki, no probs, good luck with the frest install, probably the best option at this point :)02:18
Shirapoppy_liveloop yes on the ubuntu setup screen you cna select encryption and the other box is checked via LVM02:18
tigris_Willx: select mozilla in the task bar, hit alt-space and then hit m, and then you can assume you are in move mode and the arrow keys are moving your window, so keep pressing up or down or whatever until you see it02:19
Shirapoppy_liveloop when i boot ubuntu i need to enter my pw, then i get a cryptsetup successfully message and than the boot screen loads02:19
tigris_Willx: i believe it's a common "linux" thing if you are unplugging external displays quite a bit, i have found apps won't always get re-jigged to the displayable areas02:20
Shirapoppy_liveloop i dont know if that is correct and full hdd encryption from LVM02:22
poppy_liveloopShira: cool, sounds like it's working for you then02:22
poppy_liveloopShira: yes, LVM is correct full-disk block level encryption02:22
Shirapoppy_liveloop ah soo is that pw screen from LVM?02:22
poppy_liveloopShira: LVM is not the encryption system, that's just the Logical Volume Manager. This is a disk management system that separates logical volumes from physical disks, so that the raw disk can be encrypted, but then appears to be a normal disk to user apps when in use02:24
WillxI am currently downloading NDISWrapper and WINE in hopes that I can get my NetGear Wireless card to work. Could you perhaps help me with that?02:24
Shirapoppy_liveloop soo my hdd is now full encrypted (because the pw before ubuntu boot screen or before the boot screen load)02:25
tigris_anyone got ideas on apt-get update hanging with "0% [Connecting to us.archive.ubuntu.com (2001:67c:1562::13)] [Connecting to security.ubuntu.com (2001:67c:1562::13)]"? I suspect related to ipv6, not sure why my host started using ipv6 by default, i can't ping that ipv6 address either, but i can ping others using ping602:25
poppy_liveloopShira: yes, assuming you used the common dm-crypt method02:26
barretti have a server "mainframe" which has a folder, with all the files owned by barrett:barrett, this folder is shared via nfs (r+w) and mounted on another machine 'htpc', with users barrett and xbmc.  barrett@htpc can write to this share, but xbmc@htpc cannot.  even though xbmc@htpc is in the barrett group, and the folders in question are all 775.  what gives?02:26
daftykinstigris_: yeah, seems stuck on trying to resolve IPv6 addresses for the repo domains perhaps.02:26
poppy_liveloopShira: more info on dm-crypt: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dm-crypt02:26
daftykinstigris_: if you 'nslookup us.archive.ubuntu.com' does it give only v4 addresses in response?02:27
Shirapoppy_liveloop idk i have only select the encryption and LVM box on the ubuntu setup02:27
poppy_liveloopShira: if you REALLY want to check your disk, don't take my word for it. Boot from a USB key and try to mount the disk, and inspect the blocks to see if they look the same as an unencrypted disk02:27
tigris_daftykins: yes, only ipv4 in the nslookup, can ping those ipv4 addresses fine02:27
Shirapoppy_liveloop good idea i try it out and big thanks for your help and sorry if i have steald your time02:28
Shiraalso big thanks to the other users they have helped me02:28
poppy_liveloopShira: if you have spare USB disks around that you can format, try inserting them, formatting them as encrypted using the process you used, and then try reading them in another computer02:28
joebbarrett: Do the user IDs match?02:29
barrettjoeb, i am not aware of user IDs02:29
poppy_liveloopShira: no problem. Despite what others might say, it's worth learning about security02:29
daftykinstigris_: hrmm, so it seems you need a way to stop your system using IPv6 then things will update fine02:29
tigris_daftykins: perhaps, if ubuntu ipv6 addresses are not stable02:30
barrettjoeb, the user ids between barrett@mainframe and barrett@htpc?  or barrett@htpc and xbmc@htpc?02:30
poppy_liveloopShira: keep learning by trying more things :)02:30
daftykinstigris_: well, i've no idea about that as my ISP still has yet to support v6 sadly, but if it's stalling (yet somehow knows an IP for that US repo) then it must be struggling. can you ping6 the v6 address it gives?02:30
tigris_daftykins: i can not ping6 the ipv6 addresses relating to us.archive.ubuntu.com... but i can successfully ping6 other ipv6 addresses02:31
daftykinstigris_: mm that's definitely an issue. you could either try changing your repos or force IPv4 only then i guess02:34

herbijudlestoidshi guys, we setup a NFS server yesterday on ubuntu 12.04.2, the only non-default config is that we arent running swap and have bonded NICs03:04
wilee-nileeexcelsiora, brasero rips, there are others03:05
herbijudlestoidsi set the server to copy 14TB of data from another NFS server, set up in an identical fashion, on identical hardware03:05
herbijudlestoidsovernight the new NFS server kernel panicd messages about ksoftirqd03:05
herbijudlestoidsthe original server seems fine03:05
poppy_liveloopwilee-nilee: coincidentally, i had a friend tell me just a few days ago that the 10.04 update repo breaks machines03:05
herbijudlestoidsis there any way for me to ascertain what caused the panic?03:05
excelsiorawilee-nilee: i'll look at it.03:05
herbijudlestoidsiv looked in /var/log/syslog, /var/log/kern.log, etc without seeing anything obvious03:06

l3n0xHello IRC Ubuntu World!03:59
wilee-nileenaryfa, This from a install or live cd?03:59
gag_i have booting problem on ubuntu 12.0404:00
l3n0xWhy is it I got slow transfer rate when copying files from ext4 to NTFS partition?04:00
wilee-nileegag_, Can you describe the problem to the channel?04:00
gag_while i m booting its directly going to ROOT04:01
reisiol3n0x: compared to what?04:01
holsteingag_: root user? the root of the drive?04:01
gag_root of the drive ...its showing like root@sys3:#04:02
holsteingag_: it?04:02
l3n0xreisio: I only got 75kB/s on average...04:03
holsteingag_: what operating system are you using? when did you install it? how did you install it.. when did it start doing whatever its doing?04:03
reisiol3n0x: compared to what?04:03
l3n0xit's on 1 HDD, isn't it suppose to be faster then that??04:03
reisiol3n0x: you're actually recreating it in another filesystem04:03
l3n0xIt even faster when I download directly from the internet (13mB/s)04:04
gag_holstein: i am using ubuntu12.04,i installed 2months back,i installed from CD,04:04
holsteingag_: and you get automatically logged in as root user?04:04
reisiol3n0x: that's transferring data from your network device to your hard disk04:04
l3n0xso are you saying that it's better for me to download it directly to the NTFS partition from the internet?04:05
reisiol3n0x: ...as opposed to what you're doing now, which is effectively doubling the job of the mechanics of your hard disk04:05
reisioit has to copy, then write04:05
reisiothen copy, then write04:05
reisioover and over04:05

FloodBot1reisio: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.04:05
reisioFloodBot1: suck an egg04:05
gag_holstein: its not logged in to ubuntu just its showing command mode04:05
holsteingag_: i dont understand what you mean04:06
syn-ackSo, it's dropping into single user mode instead of your environment04:06
syn-ackthat's what you're saying, right gag?04:06
holsteingag_: when i run "sudo -i" in a terminal, i get "root@aphrodite:~#" for example, which looks like what you are getting04:06
l3n0xreisio: IC, so there's no problem with my transfer rate then...?04:06
syn-ackgag_: What is your syslog telling you?04:06
gag_syn-ack: yes  exactly04:07
holsteinsyn-ack: OH.. yeah, i agree with where you are going..04:07
gag_its in single user mode04:07
reisiol3n0x: that's harder to say04:07
syn-ackgag_: have you reviewed your logs? Something's not init'ing04:07
l3n0xreisio: What is the normal transfer rate for copying files from ext4 to NTFS?04:08
syn-ackWhat does dmesg tell you?04:08
reisiol3n0x: good question04:08
usr13gag_: As syn-ack points out, you should take a look at syslog;  cat /var/log/syslog04:08
syn-ackSOmething very early on isn't init'ing04:08
l3n0xreisio: I tried drag n drop copy with Nautilus, it's even worse, so I use rsync and I got 75kB/s04:08
usr13gag_: Share with us anything that looks interesting.04:08
WhohastheEdgeI wish Ubuntu/Canonical would give out some more info regarding the planned boot process / which process their going with.04:09

gag_Filesystem check or mount failed. A maintenance shell will now be started. CONTROL-D will terminate this shell and continue booting after re-trying filesystems. Any further errors will be ignored.04:10

syn-ackgag_: so its not mounting /04:10
syn-ackwhy?04:11
gag_this is the error i m getting04:11
syn-ackgag_: fsck /04:11
syn-ackthen badblock it04:11
holsteingag_: that could be a bad hard drive04:11
syn-ackor it could be that there's something going on with the filesystem04:11
usr13syn-ack: gag_  shutdown -F -r   #Will force filesystem check on reboot.04:11
gag_so what is the solution..?04:11
holsteingag_: the fsck suggestion04:12
holstein!fsck04:12
ubottufsck 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 reboot04:12
holsteingag_: and its not a "solution". you will just test til you determine the issue, which might be that the hard drive is "bad"04:12
syn-ackusr13: I know the shutdown command, but it's already unmounted so there's no point in a reboot, just do it offline04:12
l3n0xgag_: back up your files, and re=install Ubuntu :)04:12

syn-ackusr13: he's dropping into single user at boot because he cant mount /04:14
syn-ackso do it all offline. no biggie04:14

syn-ackusr13: the /forcfsk is the samething as -F04:15
syn-ackhe can't touch it though since he can't mount /04:15
usr13syn-ack:  I thought    "sudo shutdown -F -r now"  would do it.  (Maybe I'm wong.)04:15
syn-ackso either he does it offline or he does it line youre suggesting04:15
piggazoidanybody know how to adjust overscan and underscan with nvidia card?04:15
usr13I do not think it's a good idea to try and fsck a mounted filesystem.04:16
syn-ackits not mounted04:16
usr13He could boot a liveCD and do it.04:16
syn-ackIT IS OFFLINE04:16
usr13Ok04:16
syn-ackhe can't mount //04:16
syn-ackusr13: fsck / from that shell you're in now04:17
syn-ackYou would actually have to call your block device manually since there's no mtab, either04:18
syn-ackso whatever your /path/to/the/device/is04:18
usr13syn-ack: I thought you did filesystems instead of directories.  i.e.  fsdk sda104:19
gag_hey guys..i am getting same error again i tried sudo shutdown -F -r now this command04:19
usr13I always just use    fsck -y04:19
syn-ackusr13: you don't need to have a mounted filesystem for Grub to find and inflate a kernel image. I never mount my server /boot unless it's time for a kernel update04:19
syn-ackusr13: everything, including devices are seen by the linux and UNIX kernels as file.04:20
higgyhello04:20
syn-ackthe only time it's not is when you're dealing with grub then its (0,0)04:20
holsteingag_: you will, til you repair either the file system, or determine the hardware has failed, and replace it04:21
syn-ackusr13: so it would still have a path to the block device since it's in the /sys tree04:21
usr13syn-ack: You are correct.  Mount points can be fscked as well as partitions.  Just that I've always checked the whole partition.04:21
usr13I've never figured out why I wouldn't check the whole partition.04:22
syn-ackusr13: in this case it's better to just scan the whole block device.04:22
usr13I agree04:22
syn-ackANd he's not checking the mount point.04:22
syn-ackhe's checking the device for the reasons I stated above.04:23
usr13 / is a mount point.04:23
syn-ackDid you see what I told him afterward?04:23
usr13I may have missed that.04:23
gag_anybody replying to me...????04:23
syn-ackI told him to use /the/path/to/the/device04:23
syn-ackgag_: we sure did. Read above.04:24

syn-ackusr13: he can't04:27
gag_tell me exact solution04:27
holsteingag_: thats another reason why i might use a live CD..04:27
holsteingag_: the *exact* solution is still up for you to determine with testing04:28

syn-ackI really wish people would read scroll04:29
holsteinCoburn: sure.. but, the issue is, the file system is *not* mounted.. no mounting. so the suggestion is, to fsck04:29
usr13Coburn: Anyway, we've already discussed not fscking a mounted filesystem.04:30
syn-ackgag_: do me a favor04:30
syn-ackfrom your console, type "fsck" without the quotes, of course.04:30
syn-ackNothing after it, just fsck04:31
syn-ackwhat does it tell you?04:31
piggazoidanybody know how to adjust overscan and underscan with nvidia card?04:32
syn-ackfsck should barf out an error about needing a target.04:32
usr13If the filesystem is mounted, fsck says,  "/dev/sdaX is mounted. e2fsck: Cannot continue, aborting."04:32

usr13syn-ack: This may be one of those cases.  (Sometimes it's just easier.)04:44
usr13I'm a pretty big fan of boot-disks04:45

usr13I suppose you've got a valid point there ;004:46
qinSeven_Six_Two: pmount04:46
syn-ackusr13: chances are, it's nothing too major.... More than likely the kernel couldnt reconcile the journal and puked. probably just needs to have it rebuilt and for some reason, mount was kicking it out04:48
usr13Seven_Six_Two: Shouldn't need to be root to write to it. But one thing I don't like is your mount point.  Why did you choose /media/Aegis-3 ?  (Why not /home/Seven_Six_Two/Aegis-3 ?)04:48
syn-ackusr13: doesn't explain why fsck's counter didn't trip in the first place, but yeah04:49

usr13Seven_Six_Two: But I've not seen the error message you are getting.  Really though.  Why don't you create a mount point in your ~/  directory?04:51
usr13Seven_Six_Two: Even when I do a nfs share, I just place it in /home/usr13/  Like /home/usr13/Videos  and same on client and server.  Simple. Right?  (Or on the client it could be /home/mom/usr13s-Videos )  Something like that....04:53
usr13Are we in a netsplit?04:54
syn-ackLooks like it04:55
usr13syn-ack: I never now, I have my client ignore most everything.  It's just to much stuff going by, especially on a busy channel04:56
Seven_Six_Twosorry... I was reading. I mounted it there because this script will be run by cron, and I don't want it in my home. The problem (I just discovered) was that I needed to add "uid=1000,gid=1000" to the mount options in fstab. It defaults to root, and that's how to change it.04:56
syn-ackusr13: seems to be a fairly minor one, if so04:56
usr13yea04:56
usr13Seven_Six_Two: Ok, good.  Glad you told us.04:57
usr13Seven_Six_Two: Even though you don't want it in /home/  I still don't like it being in /media/ I would make a mount ponit elsewhere, maybe even just /04:59
usr13I dono, that's just me I guess.05:00

brahmanaHi.. I am using a 4G USB Modem to access internet. There is a helper applicatin to drive the device provided by the ISP05:18
brahmanaWhen using this helper application, the network manager is unaware of the connection and says I am not connected.05:18

rannongadaya, what do you mean and how did you install the kernel?05:20
brahmanaIs there a way to tell Software Center and/or the network manager that I am actually connected to the internet?05:20
rannongadaya, also what release are you running?05:20

brahmanath0r: haven't tried that. However the problem is not with connection itself. The connection is all fine. I am now connected with the same device.05:24
wilee-nileeScaroDj, Not unless you saved the info.05:24
th0rbrahmana, then I would just disable network manager as it isn't really doing anything for you anyway05:24
brahmanath0r: I just want the Software Center to not rely on what network-manager says and allow me to install the software05:25
rannongadaya, are you on the website?05:25
th0rbrahmana, aha...I don't use software center, so didn't realize it is connected to nm05:25
dayarannonga: yeah05:25
rannongadaya, ok so are you 64 or 32 bit05:25
ScaroDjwilee-nilee, Oh, bummer! Well, since it's a forum I don't think there's anything sensible to protect anywhere else. Thanks!05:26
varunendraScaroDj, it is best to change all your passwords which you are not sure about.05:26
brahmanath0r: I can just use apt-get. But I thought going through Software Center would place the app in the right category and provide some other goodies.05:26
dayarannonga: Actually I have a very strange problem,  I have written an upgrade script for upgrading 10.04 LTS to 12.04 LTS offline05:26
ScaroDjvarunendra, yes indeed O.O05:27
rannongacould you show me it?05:27
dayarannonga: yeah,05:27
th0rbrahmana, you might try just killing network manager ( it is nm-applet in the ps list) and see if that helps05:27
wilee-nileeScaroDj, If you have read the splash shown  if you go to the site and are sure you have not used the same password in your email used there you are probably okay, however watch for spam on that email address.05:27
brahmanath0r: will try that05:28
wilee-nileeor any other places the same password ScaroDj05:28
th0rbrahmana, if you just kill that process, it will start as usual on reboot so no harm done05:28

brahmanath0r: sudo stop network-manager did it. Software Center now allows me to install..:)05:31
dayarannonga: it worked, and I do hava next script for upgrading 12.04 to latest pkg, that I have downloaded05:31

mfdlhas anyone experience problems with uprecords (uptimed) double reporting sessions?05:33
brahmanath0r: :) .. thank you.. may you have many more such moments..!05:33
dayarannonga: I have only a minor problem, after the script after-install.sh run successfuuly, and it restart it wait on the grub screen for the Return key, I want it to automatically boots05:33
rannongadaya, how long did you wait for it?05:33
rannongacause it just sounds like a timer05:34
dayarannonga: I have wait few minutes05:34
rannongaoh05:34
dayarannonga: It wait for the return key05:34
dayarannonga: But in next reboot it doesnot show the choice05:35
dayarannonga: boot automatically to latest kernel,05:35
rannongaisnt that good?05:35
rannongaif it actually boots into ubuntu I wouldn't be worrying05:36
dayarannonga: I need an update script that will remotely upgrade the ubuntu 10.04 LTS to 12.04 offline05:36
dayarannonga: There is no one to hit the enter key for next reboot that the problem :)05:37
rannongadaya, so wait, let me get this right it boots into ubuntu 10.04 not 12.0405:37
rannonga?05:38
dayarannonga: It boot to ubuntu 12.04, no doubt, only problem is it wait for return key in next reload,05:39

linuxmintHi, I've installed with Linux Mint 15 Olivia Mate 64-bit and reinstalled Virtualbox 4.2.10_Ubuntu r84101, however Fullscreen still won't work.05:54
rannongalinux mint, do you mean you cant change the res?05:55
linuxmintrannonga: well, I select Fullscreen in Virtualbox and the screen maximises in the monitor, but the Windows only fill 75% of the screen. I did the Install Guest Additions... thing, but LinuxMint/Virtualbox seem to have downloaded the guest additions to Downloads and doesn't do anything about it..like make the Windows OS in the VM full screen?05:56
dayarannonga: we need to sync the native kernel, that original 12.04 have, But alternate CD doesn't upgrade the kernel so we have to stick on linux-image-3.5.0-23-generic_3.5.0-23.35~precise1_amd64.deb05:57

mumpitzelautoremove is for stuff that's not needed anymore due to the way dependencies were installed. unlikely that it applies to kernels. just uninstall the kernels manually07:11
wilee-nileeTheBrayn, Auto-remove does not remove kernels. You might install ubuntu-tweak and use the janitor to remove, it gets the configs as well, or from the terminal.07:11
TheBrayndoes that mean that I will need a script on a server which cleans boot and the kernels to stop it from wasting space?07:12
u-k-i-tTheBrayn: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/RemoveOldKernels07:12

gordonjcpufk_: see if there's a backport?12:03
StephDCufk_: Possibly because 12.04 is LTS version.12:04
DJonesufk_: You'll probably find that your system is set to only notify you of LTS upgrades, there is a setting in the repo's to only show LTS updates12:04

Mestre-SplinterSo the problem persists, and when the wifi stop working i have to disable and enable the wireless and it is back14:10
thehumanelementhello tom_o, I have often wondered this, can you be more specific? I looked into this the other day (I think I saw the Mac's "Fix Permissions" feature in some forum). I reckon in Linux there is no easy way to do this and it depends on where in the filesystem  you want to set the permissions14:10
thehumanelementI mean, ownership (/ permissions)14:11
tom_ono, ijut want to play a game with wine and it says access folder denied and need run as administrator14:11

thehumanelementIs it some kind of Windows program that makes the dialogue box that says that?14:12

ShotokanZHhi all15:26
usr13S-1438: It's best to let Ubuntu's installer create it's own partition.  (Just leave empty space, start the install process and let the Ubuntu Installer's partition manager (gparted), create it's own partition(s).)15:26
ShotokanZHi've a problem with the grub installation on an ASUS k55vd15:26
varunendraS-1438, so you've got Ubuntu installed and it doesn't let you boot windows anymore? Please elaborate your problem if I'm misunderstanding.15:26
ShotokanZHit seems that the bios automatically bypasses it, booting windows only15:26
ShotokanZH(even if grub is installed in /dev/sda!)15:27
varunendraS-1438, what isn't there?15:27
wiaktry choose ubuntu from the boot device in bios ShotokanZH15:27
raubvarunendra: I wonder if his grub is setup to not bother offering a menu15:28
ShotokanZHwiak, i'll try now15:29
ShotokanZHrebootin'15:29
wiakyou can try using the grub-customizer on a live cd to install grub correctly, ubuntu seems to have a problem installing grub on drive15:29
varunendraraub, that's what I'm trying to confirm. Shouldn't happen normally though.15:29
usr13S-1438: You may need to tell us again what the problem is.  Tell it differently, with a bit more detail, so that we can understand better.15:29
S-1438varunendra, I created a "logical" partition with "mini-tool partition wizard" and installed Ubuntu but it wouldn't boot to Ubuntu. The partition with Ubuntu didn't appear on the "boot List" so it couldn't boot to Ubuntu  It would only boot to windows. the partition existed but the PC wouldn't boot from that partition.15:30
wiakShotokanZH: didnt work?15:30
ShotokanZHwiak, i could only choose which drive to boot15:31
ShotokanZHno options at all to select a partition15:31
varunendraS-1438, Did the installation of Ubuntu finish properly? Is it windows 8 ?15:31
usr13S-1438:  First: It's best to let Ubuntu's installer create it's own partition.  (Just leave empty space, start the install process and let the Ubuntu Installer's partition manager (gparted), create it's own partition(s).)  Second:  You need to let the grub boot loader write to the MBR of the master Hard Drive, (if you don't, it more-than-likely won't boot to Ubuntu.)15:31
wiakShotokanZH: did you turn off secure boot?15:32
ShotokanZHwiak, i did15:32
wiakhmm, the way i fix the same problem was to install (x)ubuntu on a external (SSD) drive :p15:32
usr13S-1438: And, you need more than one partitions.  One for swap and at least one more to actually install on. (I use three.  One for swap, one for /  and one more LARGE one for /home/15:33
ShotokanZHwiak, well that sucks lol that's not a solution dude xD15:33
wiaki think it has something to do with GPT, boot loader not installing correctly and windows 815:33
ShotokanZHwiak, strange thing is that i installed win8+kubuntu in other 3 pcs15:34
ShotokanZHneither of 'em has that problem15:34
usr13S-1438: You might just do the install over.  Delete the logical partition you created, (leaving just empty space), and then run the install.  It will detect the empty space and partition and install on it.  (By the way; How much space did you set asside for the Ubuntu install?)15:34
wiakthose pc didnt hav efi i bet15:34
wiak:P15:34
S-1438usr13, that would be the best way to go but the installer doesn't indicate which partition is for which operating system. It lets me chose the size of each partition but it doesn't tell me which is which.15:34
ShotokanZHwiak, every single one with efi15:34
varunendrawiak, usr13 it can be any of the cases, both are common - the UEFI thing as well as the grub installing on the usb instead of the HDD.15:35
wiakdid they have GPT drives?15:35
usr13S-1438: Yes it does.  It *asks*  if you want to use a partition for swap or / or /home/ etc.15:35
ShotokanZHvarunendra, the uefi is installed in the hdd, i'm sure about that15:35
ShotokanZHsorry15:35
ShotokanZHthe grub is installed in the hdd15:36
S-1438usr13, so "home" is for the Ubuntu partition?15:36
usr13S-1438: "home" is for personal files.   / is for system files.15:36
joti234hi fren, i got my ubuntu corrupted after i compiled kernel then i had grub rescue problem i formatted the partitions using live ubuntu usb then i tried to install lilo too but still i can install i tried to install windows too its saying required drive partition missing i realised that i formatted restore partition so what what can i do now15:36

ShotokanZHwiak, i even tried with easybcd15:37

wiakShotokanZH: did the other pcs have GPT drives?15:37
wiakhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GUID_Partition_Table15:38
varunendraS-1438, Did you enter the manual partitioning mode? (the "Try Something else" option). It only shows the generic names of the partitions if I remember correctly. The best way to identify the target partition is to leave it as empty space, so you can distinguish it from the FAT and NTFS partitions.15:38
ShotokanZHwiak, i don't remember, my home pc uses a corsair force 3 ssd15:38
S-1438usr13, I stopped the install process at the point where it wanted me to decide the size of the partitions until I could get an answer to my question but to answer yours, I wanted about 25GB for Ubuntu.15:38

varunendraS-1438, can you repartition from within windows? Just leave a 25 GB empty space after shrinking other partitions. It will be easy to identify during Ubuntu installation.15:42

usr13varunendra: That may be good advise.  I'll consider it.  Thanks for telling me.  Having said that, I've used it before and it seems to work just fine.  I *really* think the tragedies are [mostly] due to "operator-error".15:51

Tikikoikonia the closest explanation i can find is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8MWBhlaLIxQ <-- but i need to login with a ubuntu box16:40

faoiseamhI strace'd a process using 100% cpu (vmware natd) and see it is out of file descriptors (EMFILE (Too many open files)). It is running as root and as root ulimit -n shows unlimited. What limit is it hitting? This is on ubuntu 12.0416:41
Tikikoikonia can i pm you?16:41

tom_oan hour ago, some tell me some tips16:42
faoiseamhikonia: i did an lsof -p <pid taht is limited> | wc -l and only saw 1033 open files16:43
tom_oto change ownership with "sudo chown -R tom_o:tom_o  ~/.wine"16:43
tom_oi want to change it back but i dont know how to16:43
kapad@raub I have a extended partition, with 2 ext4 partitions. I want to delete one of them and size down the extended partition to use in another partition16:43
Picitom_o: Back to what?16:43
tom_oback to default16:43
ikoniafaoiseamh: you need to look at the system, not the user16:43
TandyUKtom_o: the same way you changed it, but with the user/group you want to change it back to16:44
TandyUKthere is no magic "undo"16:44
tom_owhat i should type?16:44
Picitom_o: The default should be your username.16:44
faoiseamhikonia: look at in terms of open files or setting the limit? lsof -n | wc -l returns ~1650016:44
TandyUKwhats the correct way to install a new grub on my new set of disks, and make them bootable?16:45
tom_owhat should i type on terminal16:45
faoiseamhtaht 1033 looks suspcisiouly like the 1024 + a few other things lsof is picking up16:45
TandyUKcurrently cloning from sdb to sdh16:45
ikoniafaoiseamh: I suspect you're hitting a system/kernel limit rather than looking at ulimit16:45
daivykhi, I am trying to configure eclipse with ubuntu but no success so far, the problem is that I need to add a path to ld_library_path, but it is always showing blank, so I searched for and created a my.conf inside the /etc/ld.so.conf, but eclipse does not find either, so I have create a SH file with "export ld_library_path=.../path/" and execute eclipse with this SH and it works, anyone know how to configure ubuntu properly to find ld_libr16:45
Picitom_o: What is your user's username?16:45
KurlonOk, issue is with ps, by default it's column width isn't wide enough to show those names so it reverts to UID instead.  Tweak the column width via args and viola, proper unames shown and I can stop freaking out that something's fishy on that box.16:46
tom_otom_o16:46
faoiseamhikonia: any tips on diagnosing what limit I'm hitting?16:46

Kurlonhttp://compgroups.net/comp.os.linux.misc/ps-lists-user-as-uid-instead-of-username/490780 for those curious16:46
ikoniafaoiseamh: look at the kernel settings in sysctl, look at your ram usage, make sure you're not hitting the limit as you're out of ram16:46
tom_othe tip that those guy give me is to change wine ownership right ?16:47

kapad@raub whats single user mode?16:49
raubIf those partitions are the only extended ones, you will need to unmount, resize, and put it back16:49
TandyUKNahledge: we heard you the first no, no idea16:49
raubkapad: I think they can it repair mode or whatever16:49
kapadoh.. like root mode?16:50
raubkapad: it would be a bit easier using lvm, but then you would need to make sure you do not get extended partitions unless you need them16:50
raubkapad: kinda of. It starts with the bare minimum16:51
faoiseamhikonia: systemwide fd limit is 6514245, don't think that's it16:51
kapad@raub problem is that my root partition is one among the 2 extended partitions. I need to boot from usb..16:51

kapadaah..16:56
faoiseamhikonia: i cat'd /proc/<pid in question>/limits and i see the max open files is limited to 1024/4096 - any idea why that would be when I have the aforementioned settings?16:57
raubthen create a second primary prtition and put lvm in it16:57
raubIf laptop, encrypting it is not a bad idea either16:57
kapad@raub - I need to dual boot windows for games. For some reason the thing needs to be the first partition..16:57
raubAha16:57
kapadand after this I ran out of the limit on 4 partitions.16:57
raubThe point still remains:16:57
raubwindows, /boot, /lvm16:57
kapadencrypting sounds good.. what about speed?16:57
raubbecause inside the lvm you can make partitions as you wish16:58
rauband you can add an external drive to the volume group, move stuff out, and resize as needed live16:58
kapadits currently like /ROOT(for windows to work) /win /extended(/boot /home) /common16:58

Artemis3DeonP, i don't think you are supposed to upgrade from 12.04 to 13.04, you have to go to 12.10 first. Only lts to lts is supported besides regular (every 6 month) version.17:46

TandyUKhelp guys... just done a hard drive sawp and now grub cant get its config right18:01
TandyUKgrub-install is creating grub.cfg with the line "root='(hd5,msdos2)'18:01
TandyUKwhich should be hd0,...18:02
TandyUKcurrently im having to manually edit the grub config at boot time18:02
TandyUKor i just get a black screen indefinitely18:02
TandyUKwhile i can fix it manually, i need to know where to change that so that the next kernel update doesnt leave the machine trying (and failing) to boot from the wrong disk18:03
Artemis3TandyUK, did you check /etc/default/grub ?18:03
TandyUKyup, no mention of that setting18:04
TandyUKunless theres other stuff thats not documentedi n there18:04
Artemis3TandyUK, perhaps its using UUID? (preferred)18:04
Artemis3TandyUK, oh yes, you can add more options there :)18:05
TandyUKok hold on your missing the point just like #grub lmao18:05
TandyUK       set root='(hd5,msdos2)'18:05
TandyUK        search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root 9d1716bc-b69d-4cc9-afb5-31cccf66e84018:05

TandyUKONLY the set root= ;line is wrong18:06
TandyUKwhich apparantly shouldnt matter, but without manually editing the entry at boot time, i cannot boot period18:06
TandyUKobviously that file is auto generated, so i need to know how to make it use hd0 instead of hd518:06
TandyUKgrub-mkdevicemap also gets it wrong, and having created my own, correct device.map, and specifying that to grub-install, it STILL gets it wrong18:07
Artemis3TandyUK, i suppose it might be a grub-install parameter, to pick the mbr or partition to install grub into?18:08
TandyUKthat has no effect on it18:08
TandyUKits getting the order wrong18:08

jslwher are all the source code in ubunutu are stored?20:01
wilee-nileehenkpoley, I think e4defrag is just a gui fsck defragg is not really a correct use, even though the creator claims it is without any actual open source access.20:01
PiciRaziel2p: You can use 'cd -' to go to the previous path, but I don't know of anything that goes further than that.  If its truely a feature of bash, you could try asking in #bash20:02
Raziel2pPici, thanks, didn't know about cd - though I managed to find it https://github.com/rupa/z20:02

p0wn3dwhat repositories do you add after you setup your ubuntu box?20:04
henkpoleywilee-nilee: e4defrag is not a 'graphical user interface', and it's not a frontend to fsck. Also, source: http://git.kernel.org/cgit/fs/ext2/e2fsprogs.git/tree/misc/e4defrag.c20:05

jslPici>thank you20:06
henkpoleywilee-nilee: what does that even mean?20:06
wilee-nilee!fsck20:06
ubottufsck 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 reboot20:06
wilee-nileehenkpoley, fsck is the linux version of a defragg20:06
Piciwilee-nilee: not really....20:07
wilee-nileePici, I know but for a user who never heard of it I generalize.20:07
geniiMore like the equivalent of chkdsk20:07
Piciwilee-nilee: henkpoley seems to know about it though.20:07
wilee-nileetrue, you are all welcome to detail its use. ;)20:08
wilee-nileePici, They know about that app which seems to be another fsck basically but has not heard of fsck, you are welcome to tell them rather than criticize me, when I am trying to at the least point out what that app seems to be.20:09

MOUDHow can I install python-qt3 in Ubuntu 13.04 64bit? I can only install the doc files20:20
lemans_ Hi guys, I used the universal pendrive installer to download lubuntu onto a flashdrive. I am trying to get a laptop with windows vista currently on it to boot it, but while im at the boot manager, it doesn't recognize a that the bootable flashdrive is in I have looked around, and I'm sure I am over looking something. but just to be sure, do I need to download a laptop version or something?20:24
want2learnGreets. Would like to know what package is the 64bit equivalent of ia32-libs - for the purpose of installing a 64bit libssl3.so..20:24
AmpelbeinMOUD: You can't. As far as I know qt3 is deprecated in raring.20:24
MOUDAmpelbein: I want to install Gerix but it says it needs qt3, how can I fix it then?20:25
lemans_also, I said lubuntu, I ment ubuntu.20:26
wilee-nileelemans_, In the past when I tried that usb loader I found it to have contig fragging problems, not sure if that is your issue, you might try unetbootin and ru a sum check on the iso.20:26

crazyeaglehow would I install a printer (Dell c1660w) that has no linux driver I already checked the openprinting. I do have windows drivers disc. I am using Ubuntu 12.0420:27
AmpelbeinMOUD: Ask the authors to port it to qt4.20:27
wilee-nileecrazyeagle, YOU open the printer app and look for a driver?20:28

henkpoleycrazyeagle: at the moment I have no clue where the Dell printer drivers are stored at Apple.com20:36
zengrwilee-nilee: Yes, I understand how to fix it. But I wanted to know that why does it work even without adding the key? What can go wrong if I don't add it?20:36
want2learnhow might I get the 64bit libssl3.so installed ? I have not been able to find what specific package "owns" it..20:37
zykotic10Anaxandridas: keep it up-to-date.  and don't run services you don't need.  that's pretty much the basics for unix-like systems ;)  enjoy.20:37

zykotic10crazyeagle: ahhh, i doubt OSX drivers are gonna help on gnu/linux... just sayin'20:38
crazyeaglebut how do I go from there? any howto's that you know of?20:38
Ampelbeinwant2learn: You could use packages.ubuntu.com to search for the file. In this case, you are most likely looking for libnss3.20:38
crazyeaglewell jus' tryin'... otherwise have no printin'20:38
wilee-nileezengr, THe key is basically you telling the computer yes I approve of this install, no key can bring up a unauthorized warning, and even cause dependencies problems, always add the key if available.20:38
zengrwilee-nilee: Got it, thanks!20:39
henkpoleycrazyeagle: It looks like HBPLv1 of the Dell C1660w is not supported by any CUPS printer driver, so a simple definition file (from OS X or wherever) is not going to work, see: http://foo2hbpl.rkkda.com20:39

diamantis_hello guys20:47
reisio'lo20:47
diamantis_which channel can I join to get some graphics gard help ?20:47
diamantis_card*20:48
diamantis_something easy with the drivers20:48
henkpoleydiamantis_: #xorg20:48
reisiodiamantis_: for Ubuntu? This one20:48
henkpoleyThough might be more developer oriented :P20:48
diamantis_for linux mint20:48
henkpoleydiamantis_: also depends on the graphics card, there are specific channels20:49
zykotic10!mint | diamantis_20:49
ubottudiamantis_: Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org20:49
henkpoleydiamantis_: sorry to refer you to #xorg :P20:50
diamantis_I know Im not on mint support but since I didnt get any help there maybe a person more profficient on linux could help me here since this community is bigger20:50
Ben64diamantis_: well this channel is for ubuntu support only, sorry20:51
zykotic10diamantis_: perhaps that should let you about level of support you can expect from using these two distros.  support should be a consideration in what distro YOU use...20:52
zykotic10s/let/tell/20:52
imarkdiamantis_: in the future just say your using ubuntu, other wise you just get jumped up arsewipes who are completely unwilling to help20:53
Ben64imark: no20:53
diamantis_ok im sorry i thought linux enthousiasts care of support linux as a whole and not separate distros, i mean there isnt any profit anyway to be protected here20:53
Ben64diamantis_: people here know ubuntu, for them to try to help with mint wouldn't work20:54
imarkhelping with graphics cards will be identical on ubuntu and mint20:54
zykotic10diamantis_: ##linux does... another alternative for you.20:54
Ben64imark: no its not20:54
imarkyes it is20:54
henkpoleydiamantis_: http://bash.org/?15203720:54
diamantis_I thought that mint is ubuntu with some more programs anyway....20:54
Ben64mint uses different repositories and different software, and thats why it is unsupported20:55
gordonjcpdiamantis_: mint isn't very much like Ubuntu, and everything is different20:55
gordonjcpdiamantis_: all the packages are built differently, pretty much20:55
sirspazzolotany system76 users here able to guess what the two unrecognized partitions that came on my drive are?20:56
wilee-nileehenkpoley, Heh, ramblings of a moron.20:56
reisiosirspazzolot: unrecognized by what?20:56
henkpoleywilee-nilee: the link is pretty old, early 2000s20:56
reisiolike a fine wine20:57
sirspazzolotreisio: any partition tool ever20:57
gordonjcpdiamantis_: superficially, Mint is like Ubuntu with a clunky obsolescent desktop manager crufted on, but internally they're actually quite different20:57
Ben64!details | sirspazzolot20:57
ubottusirspazzolot: 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 ..."20:57
sirspazzolotunrecognized fs type20:57
sirspazzolotubottu: well, I gave you all the details there are. the problem is independent of ubuntu, but since system76 laptops ship with ubuntu I figured maybe somebody here would know20:58
ubottusirspazzolot: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)20:58
sirspazzolotbahaha20:58
sirspazzolotI feeel dumb20:58
reisiosirspazzolot: maybe if you showed some output, we could be more specific20:58
wilee-nileesirspazzolot, Probably a recover and firmware, I would email them or ask on them on the UF when it is up20:58
Ben64sirspazzolot: you didn't even come close to all details, all you've said so far is two unknown partitions, we know nothing else20:58
sirspazzoloton ubuntu or gentoo, in parted, fdisk, gparted, and a windows 8 installer, these two partitions have an unknown fs type. that is literally all I've got20:59
Rarrikinssirspazzolot: You can run strings on the partition devices and see if you see anything interesting.20:59

reisioBen64: heh21:03
sirspazzolotBen64: that window is the details window it is not in the way. underneath lies mountpoint and size21:03
reisiosirspazzolot: the first is probably for gpt/uefi nonsense21:03
Ampelbeinsirspazzolot: What's the "Id" displayed when running fdisk -l?21:03
sasha|I'm asking because I don't know whether I should do a single bookmark for the ssh server, or two - one for local and one for external. the thing is that I'm using 2 factor authentication that only asks for a verification code from outside21:03

jefimenkohow can you replace the default terminal in 13.0421:06
Ben64sirspazzolot: well you see where it says bios_grub, that means its for grub21:06
jefimenkoi found a gross solution online that asks you to remove gnome-terminal and replace  /usr/bin/gnome-terminal with a link to the new terminal21:06
sirspazzolotBen64: curious that bios can read it but lin00ks can't21:07
Ben64sirspazzolot: could you say that again in english21:07
sirspazzolotit is curious that bios can read that partition while linux cannot21:07
zykotic10jefimenko: try "sudo update-alternatives --config x-terminal-emulator" and see if that works21:07

sirspazzolotsorry for getting snippy, I've had a long day21:07

sirspazzolotwould it be safe to wipe this drive, switch to mbr, and reinstall OSes?21:11
Ben64why? gpt is superior21:11
sirspazzolotBen64: windows can't boot from gpt without uefi, which I don't have, but I need windows for work21:11
want2learnwilee-nilee - thanks.21:12
sirspazzolotBen64: I have a second hard drive in this computer that windows doesn't want to install to, only guess I have is that since the ssd I'm using now is gpt and the primary boot device, windows is scared of it21:12
wilee-nileeno prob21:12
Oberon4278So when I run apt-get update, I'm getting a bunch of 404s.  Have things changed recently in a way that I have to account for?21:12
wilee-nileeOberon4278, What is your release?21:12
napsci used gdisk... and remade it... but I dont run windows so i could21:12
Ben64sirspazzolot: you could remove the ssd, install windows to the hard drive, then reconnect ssd and problem solved21:12
Oberon4278I... don't know.21:12
napscuse gpt21:12
sirspazzolotneither drive is >2tb and I don't often run into issues with the 4 primary partition limit, so I personally have no practical gripes with mbr21:13
Oberon4278How do I find out what my release is?21:13

Ben64sirspazzolot: but yeah you can format it and it'll be fine21:13
zykotic10Oberon4278: "lsb_release -sc" in a terminal should show you or use -a for more info.21:13
streulmaOberon4278: if you see something else, then your mirror is offline...21:13
sirspazzolotcool. thanks. that's what I'll start on21:13

Oberon4278Ign http://us.archive.ubuntu.com natty InRelease21:14
Oberon4278looks like it's natty21:14
sirspazzolotin short, why else would gpt trump mbr? larger fs size, no limit on number of partitions, what else21:14
Ben64yep21:14
streulmanatty, hmm, not supported anymore I think...21:14
Oberon4278I should check Linode and see if there's a kernel upgrade, actually.21:14
zykotic10sirspazzolot: ;) that isn't enough?  lol21:14
Oberon4278makes sense21:14
Ben64Oberon4278: no, you need to upgrade to a supported release21:14
Oberon4278okay21:14
sirspazzolotzykotic10: haha it would be if I had issues with either of those limitations on mbr21:14
streulmaOberon4278: natty is not a LTS release, you should upgrade21:15
wilee-nilee!eol | Oberon4278 follow this upgrade schema21:15
ubottuOberon4278 follow this upgrade schema: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades21:15
Oberon4278What does LTS mean?21:15
Oberon4278thanks wilee-nilee21:15
Ben64Long Term Support21:15
Oberon4278ah ok21:15
sirspazzolotit's nice that it supports those features but I have no practical reasons to use it and I have practical reasons to use mbr21:15
Oberon4278awesome, you guys are great :)21:15
jefimenkozykotic10: that doesn't seem to work21:15
zykotic10sirspazzolot: the 3TB limit was why i initually started using gpt (i have no uefi devices), but i like the no primary limit even more21:15
streulma;)21:15
wilee-nileeOberon4278, An upgrade will be a bit timely is all.21:15
jefimenkozykotic10: maybe it's a configuration in unity21:16
afflictoHey all. I just installed the AMD drivers on a fresh ubuntu 12.04 LTS x64 install. I can't seem to enable all my 3 monitors. The other ones are just gray? :S21:16
Oberon4278Heh.  Linode's info for this says "Ubuntu 11.04 LTS Disk Image."  Clearly that is out of date as well :)21:16
Ben64Oberon4278: it might be easier at this point to install fresh with 12.04 or 13.04 than to do two eol upgrades21:16
jefimenkozykotic10:  where it runs a specific cmd... one that points to /usr/bin/gnome-terminal21:16
Oberon4278Ben64: That's exactly what I was thinking.21:16
zykotic10jefimenko: ya sorry, guess it's an ubuntu specific setting.  sorry for the bad info.21:16
Oberon4278I can just backup my stuff and wipe the server and reinstall.21:16

moejamaIs there a known problem with file transfers between Ubuntu and Windows 7? My Ubuntu system is getting about half the transfer rate as a win 7 to win 7 transfer.21:59
holsteinmoejama: i wouldnt say "known".. are you using samba?22:00
moejamaI have tried pulling the file from a Win7 system and I also setup Samba and pulled it from the Ubuntu system. Both cases got me about the same speeds. Even used a stop watch to time them. I have tried a Realtek and Broadcom card and two seperate computers22:01
moejamaI also tried Linux Mint ubuntu and debian distros. On both setups I have Windows 2012 dual boot and it gets 2-3 times the speed on a 6 gig transfer22:02
holsteinmoejama: samba is not exactly the windows files sharing protocol AFAIK22:02
holsteinmoejama: try ssh, or something native to linux that both could have in common22:03
moejamaIs there anyway to get windows to windows like speeds between ubuntu and windows22:03
moejamaIm trying to setup a NAS/media center22:03
moejamaI need it to file share with Windows22:03
holsteinmoejama: i dont have windows, and when its around, i make it do ssh or fpt22:03
holsteinftp*22:03
holsteinmoejama: you could try using a samba server to host which might host speeds to both linux and windows optimally22:05
moejamaIs there a faster solution for using Ubuntu as a crossplatform file server than Samba, beside ftp?22:05
moejamaI did setup Samba on the Ubuntu system and it still got about half the speed as when 2 windows systems transfer22:05
moejamaEverything else seems fast, just not network file transfers and that's kind of a big deal for a NAS22:05
holsteinmoejama: is it?22:06
holsteinmoejama: are you not able to stream what you want? at a quality that is acceptable?22:06
moejamawell i was about to say it might work but i know FreeNAS like solutions are supposedly getting 100 MB/s transfers and Im getting like 4022:06
brontosaurusrexmoejama, i would try ftp server on nix and compare that to samba speed, if it is the same, then its not about protocol, but something else22:06
holsteinyeah, i would try and isolate as well.. and test22:07
moejamai have the exact systems as dual boot with windows 2012 and the transfer is great under windows22:07
moejamabut i have not tested two linux systems trasnfer yet22:07

[Gentoo]johnsmith: it should be by default afaik, but you could add a custom command for wine22:18
Dr_willisjohnsmith,  i think theres a wine-launcher app it uses22:18
Dr_willisand it should be the default.22:19
Dr_willisi find double clicking a .exe to launch it - can often be very flakey22:19
jlucwhat could be the origin of my chrome/mium corruption then ?22:20
johnsmithFor exe files, the default is mono runtime. I don't know why.22:20
