| QTPieMan | ikonia, yup | 00:04 |

| QTPieMan | ikonia, hmm, is it gonna take a month? | 00:04 |
| ikonia | QTPieMan: what does it say on the website | 00:05 |
| QTPieMan | ikonia, 2013-07-22: work on reinstalling the forums continues. | 00:05 |
| ikonia | QTPieMan: right, so it says they are working on it, but doesn't set a date. | 00:05 |
| QTPieMan | ikonia, oh ok | 00:05 |
| ikonia | QTPieMan: so therefore, if thats the information being provided how would anyone in this channel know if it's going to take a month ? (what a random time for you to ask) | 00:06 |
| ikonia | QTPieMan: you really need to start reading information that is available to you, | 00:06 |
| QTPieMan | ikonia, ph pk | 00:06 |
| ikonia | QTPieMan: ph pk ? | 00:06 |
| QTPieMan | ikonia, thats oh ok | 00:07 |
| ikonia | I see | 00:07 |
| varunendra | QTPieMan, Here is an update thread : http://ubuntu-discourse.org/t/update-on-status-regarding-re-opening-the-forums/754/36 | 00:07 |
| QTPieMan | varunendra, ok | 00:08 |
| afflicto | I think I'm gonna give up. I guess I'm gonna head back to windows 7. Or just lag around with open source drivers. | 00:08 |
| sunshinejay | is ther any antivirus for ubuntu? | 00:09 |
| QTPieMan | sunshinejay, yup lots of | 00:09 |
| QTPieMan | sunshinejay, but why do u need a anti virus? | 00:10 |
| ikonia | sunshinejay: no, there isn't | 00:10 |
| guzzlefry | There should be... :P | 00:10 |
| ikonia | guzzlefry: no, there shouldn't be | 00:10 |
| QTPieMan | ikonia, u forgot clamav :P | 00:11 |
| guzzlefry | How are you supposed to scan email attachments for your mail server? | 00:11 |
| ikonia | QTPieMan: no, I didn't | 00:11 |
| ikonia | QTPieMan: that is not an antivirus for ubuntu - that is a mail scanner | 00:11 |
| ikonia | QTPieMan: that is not antivirus for the OS - that is a mail scanner | 00:11 |
| QTPieMan | ikonia, ?? nope | 00:11 |
| ikonia | as a file system scanner it's useless | 00:12 |
| ikonia | you're welcome to use it | 00:12 |
| QTPieMan | ikonia, what about others? | 00:12 |
| ikonia | QTPieMan: what others ? | 00:12 |
| QTPieMan | ikonia, http://www.ossdoc.com/2013/02/top-3-antivirus-for-ubuntu-and-linux.html | 00:12 |
| ikonia | QTPieMan: worthless | 00:13 |
| ikonia | QTPieMan: not even "for linux" | 00:13 |
| guzzlefry | Probably shouldn't assume why he's asking about it. It could very well be for email scanning. | 00:13 |
| OerHeks | Avast stopped, by the way | 00:13 |
| QTPieMan | ikonia, i dont think we need a anti virus | 00:13 |
| ikonia | QTPieMan: I know he doesn't | 00:13 |
| ikonia | OerHeks: good, one useless product stopped | 00:14 |
| QTPieMan | ikonia, yup | 00:14 |
| jarco | Ok now I have the CCC working over here. But now the Control center is in german (linux language is English. Any solutions? | 00:14 |
| === ameyer_ is now known as junix659 | ||
| varunendra | ikonia, QTPieMan as far as I know, clamav uses same virus definition database as its windows version (which is also an "on-demand" scanner). And it does scan files and detects viruses. Only it's an on demand one. | 00:14 |
| ikonia | varunendra: hence why it's useless | 00:15 |
| Mkop1 | my computer just crashed 3 times in a row when trying to log in. eventually I decided to install lubuntu and managed to log in that way, but how can I debug what went wrong with that gnome/unity login? | 00:15 |
| ikonia | varunendra: it's only good for scanning for windows virus, such as in email, which is why it's worthless to linux | 00:15 |
| QTPieMan | heres everything clearly www.ossdoc.com/2012/11/do-we-need-anti-virus-on-linux.html | 00:15 |
| ikonia | that's a pretty poor link | 00:16 |
| QTPieMan | ikonia, for scanning windows viruses :P | 00:16 |
| ikonia | I'd stop recommending ossdoc.com - everything you post from there seems pretty weak | 00:16 |
| QTPieMan | ikonia, pk thanks for telling me | 00:16 |
| QTPieMan | ikonia, *ok | 00:16 |
| guzzlefry | There are a few Linux viruses, nothing widespread though. >_> | 00:17 |
| varunendra | ikonia, I agree with the lack of live part. But at least it solves the purpose most of the people need an antivirus for.... to save or protect windows. Those viruses are not going to do anything to linux anyway. | 00:17 |
| QTPieMan | varunendra, not wine WINE too :P | 00:18 |
| varunendra | what about wine? | 00:19 |
| OerHeks | My best security tip is Backup your data. | 00:19 |
| varunendra | goes without saying ;) | 00:19 |
| QTPieMan | using a firewall is enough | 00:20 |
| varunendra | Not going to protect from "plugged-everywhere" usb drives ;) | 00:20 |
| varunendra | firewall is a different thing with different purpose, QTPieMan | 00:21 |
| QTPieMan | well, programmers told me it isnt safe to use xampp, is it true? | 00:21 |
| QTPieMan | varunendra, i told that is "enough" to mess with security | 00:22 |
| OerHeks | xammp is not supported here, use lamp | 00:22 |
| jkitchen | is there a way to prevent certain files from being added during package installation? I want to install the libvirt-bin package but do *not* want it to install the default network and stuff. | 00:22 |
| QTPieMan | OerHeks, not supported here means? | 00:22 |
| kgreene | Does anyone have experience with taking apart the screen of a System 76 Pangolin Performance laptop? I can't access the bottom screws, and was wondering if anyone had advice | 00:23 |
| OerHeks | !xampp | 00:23 |
| ubottu | We do not support XAMPP installs here. Please use the LAMP stack that is in our repositories; see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP for more information. | 00:23 |
| OerHeks | there is a factoid for it | 00:23 |
| varunendra | jkitchen, unless it is a metapackage, it should only install the packages that are its dependencies. | 00:23 |
| QTPieMan | OerHeks, ok | 00:24 |
| varunendra | kgreene, maybe try #hardware | 00:24 |
| kgreene | varunendra, thanks | 00:24 |
| jkitchen | varunendra: talking about config files, not packages | 00:24 |
| OerHeks | QTPieMan, it is good to make a honeypot | 00:24 |
| OerHeks | :-D | 00:24 |
| varunendra | np :) kgreene | 00:24 |
| QTPieMan | OerHeks, sudo tasksel install lamp-server will be "sudo apt-get install lamp-server^" | 00:25 |
| jkitchen | varunendra: the libvirt-bin package installs some gunk in /etc/libvirt/qemu/networks/default which I don't want, nor need | 00:25 |
| jkitchen | and since it starts the service upon package installation as well, it starts up the services associated with said gunk | 00:25 |
| OerHeks | QTPieMan, yes, tasksel has some nasty bugs, when you want to remove things | 00:26 |
| varunendra | jkitchen, then I've no idea. If you know the exact location of files, and if they are just configuration files, you can backup-->restore them though. | 00:26 |
| jkitchen | varunendra: backup-->restore? | 00:27 |
| QTPieMan | OerHeks, hmm | 00:27 |
| varunendra | just copy the config files then restore (overwrite) them after installation. But only if they are pure config files. | 00:27 |
| OerHeks | !tasksel | 00:28 |
| ubottu | Tasksel is a Debian/Ubuntu tool that installs multiple related packages as a co-ordinated "task" onto your system, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Tasksel for more information. Use tasksel only to INSTALL tasks, not to remove them. It will remove every package listed within the removed task! see https://launchpad.net/bugs/574287 | 00:28 |
| QTPieMan | i came to know apt-fast is slower | 00:28 |
| jkitchen | varunendra: ahh. perhaps I'm not being clear :) I don't want them to show up in the first place due to them being actually harmful to my setup | 00:28 |
| Braden` | Hello | 00:28 |
| QTPieMan | !apt-fast | 00:29 |
| Braden` | I am trying to run a binary (compiled for 32-bit) in linux. It has the proper executable flags set, but when I run it, I get: $ ./ventrilo_srv -i -- bash: ./ventrilo_srv: No such file or directory | 00:29 |
| Braden` | The file is obviously there in the directory | 00:29 |
| varunendra | jkitchen, what is copied where, and in what sequence, plus additional actions during installation, is all stored in "DEBIAN" folder in the .deb package, there is no external way to control it as far as I know. So unless you edit the .deb package(s) itself, I don't think you can control it. | 00:31 |
| trism | Braden`: you probably don't have libc6:i386 plus the other 32-bit libs necessary | 00:32 |
| jkitchen | varunendra: ok, thanks | 00:32 |
| crashfocus | Hey all - since the forums are down, I've come here for advice/help. Does ubuntu 13.04 run smoothly on the mid-2012 MacBook Pro (non-retina)? | 00:32 |
| jkitchen | looks like it's actually libvirt's Makefile adding it. the 12.10 version of the package doesn't add it. | 00:32 |
| QTPieMan | ikonia, hey can i only install seamonkey navigator? there use to be "sudo apt-get seamonkey-browser" | 00:33 |
| jkitchen | there's a patch in the 12.10 version of libvirt-bin which disables the silly behavior | 00:33 |
| Braden` | trism: That fixed it, thanks | 00:33 |
| varunendra | jkitchen, are you dealing with source files? Not .deb? If so, you should be able to make it do what you want, but may take a lot of digging | 00:34 |
| jkitchen | varunendra: I apt-get source'd the package on my 12.10 box and was poking at it. seems there's a patch. I may just rebuild the deb myself to apply the patch | 00:34 |
| jkitchen | I was hoping it was being created in a post-install script or somesuch | 00:35 |
| jkitchen | and I could do some apt config magic to prevent it from being installed | 00:35 |
| varunendra | jkitchen, sorry for the vague references, hope someone better with this can answer more precisely.... I'm not much help in case of source.. :( | 00:36 |
| jkitchen | it's not source, the actual libvirt-bin package installs it. | 00:36 |
| jkitchen | anywho | 00:36 |
| jkitchen | I think I just need to rebuild the package | 00:36 |
| jkitchen | with the patch from 12.10 applied | 00:37 |

| bawank | hi anyone.. | 00:39 |
| bawank | im newbie, and i wanna ask, what should i do after installing ubuntu 13.04 and installing update ? | 00:40 |
| crashfocus | bawank: What are you using Ubuntu for? | 00:41 |
| bawank | for personal desktop | 00:41 |
| crashfocus | Alright | 00:41 |
| bawank | at my lapto > fujitsu L series | 00:41 |
| crashfocus | so first things first, go through into System Settings | 00:41 |
| bawank | *laptop | 00:41 |
| bawank | crashfocus : then ? | 00:42 |
| crashfocus | and modify anything you might need to modify in order to get your laptop running in the way you want it to | 00:42 |
| bawank | crashfocus : thanks | 00:42 |
| crashfocus | Customization is a wonderful part of Ubuntu | 00:42 |
| OerHeks | start with restricted extra's, i guess, and see if there are videodrivers available. | 00:42 |
| crashfocus | Oh yeah | 00:44 |
| crashfocus | make sure you're using proprietary video and wifi drivers (unless you're a free software person) | 00:44 |
| varunendra | crashfocus, "Proprietary" is not always the best. Should be used only if the native one is not satisfactory. | 00:45 |
| crashfocus | Fair enough | 00:45 |
| crashfocus | my experience has led me to prefer proprietary over open-source | 00:45 |
| varunendra | crashfocus, and I think of all those "fglrx", "wl" driver issues when stating what I stated above ;) | 00:46 |

| Compn | wifi isnt working, bcm4311 is my card on laptop, i try modprobe -r wl and get Error: Module wl is in use. any ideas how to fix this ? | 01:27 |
| Compn | wireless doesnt show up in ubuntu , only my wired network | 01:27 |
| varunendra | Compn, do you have an active internet connection on the laptop? (wired, usb etc) | 01:28 |
| wilee-nilee | hewhomust, It seemed you were just laughing at this request it is an easy boot. | 01:28 |
| Compn | varunendra : wired yes, and i can give you ssh access | 01:28 |
| varunendra | not required :) | 01:29 |
| Compn | ssh root access... its fresh install | 01:29 |
| varunendra | Compn, first install the required package - "sudo apt-get install linux-firmware-nonfree" | 01:29 |
| hewhomust | wilee, i merely wanted him to provide the details for the ext4 partition to inform him of how to resize it | 01:29 |
| Compn | varunendra : installing | 01:30 |
| wilee-nilee | hewhomust, Cool. | 01:30 |
| Compn | done | 01:30 |
| hewhomust | but unfortunately then he left | 01:30 |
| varunendra | Compn, now - "sudo ifconfig eth1 down" (assuming eth1 is currently your wifi interface) | 01:30 |
| Compn | varunendra : dont see wifi in ifconfig | 01:31 |
| Compn | i got eth0 (wired) and lo | 01:31 |
| varunendra | Compn, what is "ifconfig -a" ? Does it show additional interface? | 01:32 |
| Compn | varunendra : does not list it, no | 01:32 |
| Compn | maybe i need a reboot | 01:33 |
| twenty-three | hi guys, i am trying to compile and i got this error: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5913184/ . however, i already have g++ installed so idk what the problem might be | 01:33 |
| varunendra | Compn, the error that "wl is in use" suggested that it must have been used by that interface. But no problem with that... | 01:33 |
| varunendra | Compn, just do - "sudo apt-get purge bcmwl-kernel-source" | 01:34 |
| varunendra | Compn, then - "sudo modprobe -rfv wl" | 01:34 |
| nikescomputers | hey there | 01:35 |
| Compn | varunendra : now says module wl not found | 01:35 |
| nikescomputers | anyone have any good bash tutorials learning the terminal? | 01:35 |
| Compn | should be a few in google nikescomputers | 01:36 |
| Compn | :) | 01:36 |
| nikescomputers | thanks | 01:36 |
| Compn | sorry, dont have any links offhand | 01:36 |
| varunendra | Compn, that's okay. Did the purge command finish properly? | 01:36 |
| Compn | yes | 01:36 |
| nikescomputers | u ever use trainsignal? | 01:36 |

| varunendra | Compn, now try - "sudo modprobe -v b43". Does it make wifi active? | 01:37 |
| Compn | varunendra : just sits there at insmod /lib/modules/3.8.0-27-generic/kernel/drivers/ssb/ssb.ko | 01:37 |
| Compn | i had to change the kernel ubuntu uses because it was panicing at the start | 01:38 |
| Compn | so i'm on the older one | 01:38 |
| varunendra | Compn, if the apt-get purge command finished properly, just do a reboot if nothing else works.... wifi should work in the next boot. | 01:38 |
| Compn | varunendra : hopefully. i'm also having a problem with the update-initramfs , kept dying on tg3, should i apt-get remove and reinstall it or ? | 01:41 |
| varunendra | Compn, on the new kernel? | 01:41 |
| Compn | varunendra : on the old one, since i wasnt able to boot to the new one | 01:42 |
| varunendra | Compn, tg3 is a native driver, you can not remove it with apt-get, nor should be required to do so.. | 01:43 |
| varunendra | The bcmwl-kernel-source (wl) driver isn't the correct one for your card, so hopefully, removing it should fix initramfs too. | 01:44 |
| Compn | varunendra : ok i got wlan0 now in ifconfig | 01:45 |
| varunendra | Compn, it should be working now. | 01:45 |
| Compn | yep works now, mucho thanks | 01:46 |
| varunendra | You're welcome :) | 01:46 |
| Compn | didnt see that in google results :\ | 01:46 |
| varunendra | what? | 01:46 |
| Compn | your instructions | 01:46 |
| === jamie_ is now known as jamie` | ||
| === jamie` is now known as jamie`` | ||
| varunendra | heh, they should be in the broadcom instructions wiki page. | 01:47 |

| twenty-three | hi guys, i am trying to compile and i got this error: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5913184/ . however, i already have g++ installed so idk what the problem might be | 01:48 |
| twenty-three | i think my problem might be related to this: update-alternatives: warning: forcing reinstallation of alternative /usr/bin/gcc-4.4 because link group gcc is broken | 01:48 |
| Compn | varunendra : yes, but theres only one line , and its not clear that was my problem : "If you wish to permanently use the open source drivers then remove the bcmwl-kernel-source package:" | 01:48 |
| Compn | btw that wiki document is a pain to understand :D | 01:49 |
| jamie`` | Hi guys im having an issue making Windows 7 the default OS, I'm following a guide but apparantly I don't have the file /boot/grub/menu.lst to edit, what do I do ? (GRUB version 2) | 01:49 |
| hewhomust | jamie try opening this | 01:49 |
| varunendra | Compn, the key to installing correct driver is to identify your chip first, then whether the proprietary one supports it. But yeah, that wiki page is somewhat too wordy | 01:50 |
| hewhomust | /etc/default/grub | 01:50 |
| jamie`` | thanks hewhomust, do I just edit and save the file where it is or copy it across? | 01:51 |
| hewhomust | just run sudo update-grub | 01:52 |
| hewhomust | after youre finished | 01:52 |
| varunendra | jamie``, menu.lst is not used anymore, the easiest way to manage boot is to use Boot-Repair, safe and easy : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair | 01:53 |
| Kitt3n | Or grub-customizer | 01:53 |
| jamie`` | thanks varunendra! | 01:53 |
| fr33k4n | +1 for Boot-Repair. I have easily installed and dual booted windows 8 and ubuntu using it in uefi hardware | 01:54 |
| varunendra | np :) | 01:54 |
| dakotawulfy | I have used boot repair it is easy and works good | 01:54 |
| jamie`` | hewhomust: still didn't generate the menu.lst :/ ill go with varunendra's suggestion | 01:54 |
| hewhomust | k np | 01:54 |
| varunendra | jamie``, hewhomust meant to edit the /etc/default/grub file - something that boot-repair does in a safer way. :) | 01:55 |
| fr33k4n | varunendra> i too had issue with broadcom wifi drivers in ubuntu 13.04. But after install when I checked in "additional drivers" tab, it was showing the required broadcom driver. Installing it fixed my issue with wifi after a boot | 01:55 |
| fr33k4n | but built in speakers is not working. I can use headset and sound works great | 01:56 |
| varunendra | fr33k4n, there are many broadcom wifi chips that work with more than one of its three variants. But the open source ones should be given the first priority, the proprietary one last. | 01:57 |
| fr33k4n | any idea how to fix the sound issue? kernel is 3.8.19 | 01:57 |
| varunendra | fr33k4n, nope. I'm not into sound issues. :( | 01:58 |
| fr33k4n | np :) | 01:58 |
| Kitt3n | fr33k4n, are you using an AMD graphics card? | 01:58 |
| fr33k4n | only intel graphics card | 01:59 |
| Kitt3n | Okay, no idea then. | 01:59 |

| Compn | i unplug it and it goes from 90% to 46% pretty quickly... | 02:00 |
| fr33k4n | this is my lap if it helps | 02:00 |
| Compn | or just unplug > run it down > charge > run it down a few times? | 02:01 |
| wilee-nilee | Compn, Is it reading wrong or just worn out? | 02:01 |
| hewhomust | fr33 perhaps this will be useful http://askubuntu.com/questions/77494/laptop-built-in-speakers-not-working-on-an-hp-625 | 02:01 |
| Compn | wilee-nilee : probably worn out | 02:01 |
| Compn | i didnt play with it for 5 months ... | 02:02 |
| varunendra | fr33k4n, do you have alsa mixer installed? (sudo apt-get install alsamixergui) | 02:02 |
| === morph3k is now known as morph | ||
| varunendra | fr33k4n, I often see that as a first suggestion for sound issues. | 02:02 |
| hewhomust | yeah perhaps its disabled | 02:02 |
| hewhomust | not alsa i meant the device | 02:03 |
| wilee-nilee | Compn, Not sure of any fixes if worn other than urban legends myself. ;) | 02:04 |
| fr33k4n | i think i had tried alsamixer and edited the alsa-base.conf before and rebooted with no result. But not sure, i had followed this exact guide. I'll try it later once i reach home..thanks for your suggestion | 02:04 |
| jeetpei | Hi all | 02:04 |
| hewhomust | hi jeet | 02:05 |
| jeetpei | i have a question | 02:05 |
| jeetpei | i am using ar r command | 02:05 |
| hewhomust | wrong channel | 02:05 |
| hewhomust | nah just joking what is it? | 02:05 |
| Compn | wilee-nilee : ok, just making sure :) | 02:05 |
| jeetpei | i do ar r debian_binary control.tar.gz data.tar.gz | 02:06 |
| hewhomust | tar isnt it | 02:06 |
| jeetpei | but i see some png files currpt | 02:06 |
| hewhomust | not ar | 02:06 |
| jeetpei | no its ar | 02:06 |
| hewhomust | oh ok | 02:06 |
| jeetpei | i am telling you full process : first i get .deb package .. then i do : ar vx <package> : i get data control and debian_binary .. now i untar data.tar.gz : copy my logo in that .. again tar data.tar.gz : then ar r debian.deb debian_binary control.tar.gz data/tar.gz | 02:09 |
| jeetpei | but i see logo is currpt | 02:09 |
| tofa | Hi I'm having a dual boot problem. Windows boots fine but ubuntu hangs in the boot process. Anyone able to help? | 02:09 |
| jeetpei | any idea ? | 02:10 |
| hewhomust | jeet what deb is this | 02:10 |
| hewhomust | ill download it and see if it breaks as well | 02:10 |
| jeetpei | :) sorry i can not publish this at this movment | 02:11 |
| hewhomust | no problem | 02:11 |
| hewhomust | tofa, what exactly happens? | 02:11 |
| the_cyber_guy | i am having a strange problem in ubuntu 13.04. i am using a usb mobile broadband dongle and ubuntu is unable to recognise it as a mobile broadband device and it does't comes up in the network manager too. while if i restart the computer and still on the ubuntu login screen it successfully detects and let me connect using the network manager option on the top bar. once connected on the login screen, later i am able to disconnect and reconnect in | 02:11 |
| the_cyber_guy | a logged in session too. what could be the possible reason for this ? it was all working fine with 12.10, 12.04 and 11.10. | 02:11 |
| Compn | wilee-nilee : i mean it goes from 50% to off . so i cant make ubuntu tell more accurately the power status ? | 02:11 |
| hewhomust | comp, does it physically turn off | 02:12 |
| hewhomust | or is it just the calibration? | 02:12 |
| Compn | physically | 02:12 |
| wilee-nilee | Compn, It may be do you have another OS or live cd to check? | 02:12 |
| Kitt3n | Compn, sounds like an almost dead battery | 02:12 |
| hewhomust | then theres not really anything you can do | 02:12 |
| Compn | ok then :D | 02:12 |
| hewhomust | mine does the same thing | 02:12 |
| Compn | time for new battery | 02:12 |
| wilee-nilee | tofa, Details please the windows release, the install type of ubuntu as well...etc | 02:13 |
| Compn | never liked laptops, always bad power issues :\ | 02:13 |
| Compn | thanks again everyone | 02:13 |
| jeetpei | np | 02:13 |
| jeetpei | :) | 02:13 |
| jeetpei | so what is for my problem .. any guess | 02:14 |
| jeetpei | do we have another way to wrap up all tar files in debian package | 02:14 |
| jeetpei | ? | 02:14 |
| Vivekananda | hello everyone. long time. am going to install ubuntu 12.04 on vbox in windows 7 host. I want to write a script in python which prints a dictionary in a loop directly to a printer attached on the host computer. Will also later need to do this on a lan via wifi network. Can some gimme a novice set up instructions guide for this | 02:14 |
| sayakb | hi guys. I'm on ubuntu 13.04 x64. is there a utility like catfish that searches within files, but without using indexing? | 02:14 |
| wilee-nilee | the_cyber_guy, Can you identify the device? | 02:14 |
| hewhomust | vive, would python be more appropriate? | 02:15 |
| the_cyber_guy | wilee-nilee, yes i can find it using lsusb it shows Bus 003 Device 003: ID 12d1:1446 Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. E1552/E1800/E173 (HSPA modem) | 02:15 |
| jrib | sayakb: grep? | 02:15 |
| hewhomust | #python i meant | 02:15 |
| tofa | wilee-nilee , ubuntu 13.04 kernel 3.8.19 , windows xp, seperate boot and home partitions. | 02:15 |
| wilee-nilee | the_cyber_guy, Cool outside my pay range but that is good info for the channel. | 02:15 |
| jrib | jeetpei: what do you actually want to accomplish? | 02:15 |
| sayakb | jrib: looking for a gui tool. | 02:15 |
| wilee-nilee | tofa, Any history leading to this? | 02:16 |
| Vivekananda | hewhomust: did not get you ? the language I will be coding in is python but the guest system is ubuntu and the host win. so I will need info about the glue code that iwll make this happen. I guessed I would need system specific info eg samba or cups or something | 02:16 |
| jrib | sayakb: any editor will let you search within files; for example gedit | 02:16 |
| wilee-nilee | tofa, Ubuntu is a partitioned install, not a wubi right? | 02:17 |
| jeetpei | jrib: i have some logo problem .. i have debian package .. i do ar vx debian package | 02:17 |
| jeetpei | then untar data.tar.gz | 02:17 |
| jrib | jeetpei: describe "some logo problem" | 02:17 |
| jrib | jeetpei: please don't use enter as punctuation | 02:17 |
| hewhomust | vive, i would try the #python irc channel for actual help with the code | 02:17 |
| the_cyber_guy | wilee-nilee, i have seen other people having the same problem with mobile broadband dongle on 13.04. but i have found that it can be connected successfully on the login screen. and later once connected you can reconnect/disconnect in a logged in session. is this a bug ? | 02:17 |
| tofa | wilee-nilee, ubuntu 12.04 broke completely (shared computer) couldn't fetch the archives to upgrade to a new kernel so I wrote 0's to the partition and put ubuntu 13.04 on it. Then chrooted into the OS and ran update-grub. | 02:17 |
| jeetpei | logo file i got curpted when i do ar r | 02:17 |
| jrib | jeetpei: you aren't answering my question: what do you actually want to accomplish? What is your end-goal? | 02:18 |
| wilee-nilee | tofa, No grub-install /dev/sdX in the chroot | 02:18 |
| jeetpei | i want a deb package with good logo | 02:18 |
| jrib | jeetpei: great. Now be more specific about what package you are talking about and exactly what the logo is in the package | 02:19 |
| tofa | wilee-nilee, yes grub is installed. on /dev/sda8 the boot partition | 02:19 |
| wilee-nilee | tofa, THis a gpt? | 02:19 |
| hewhomust | tofa you should do it to sda not a specific partition at least i think so | 02:20 |
| tofa | wilee-nilee, when I boot I get the grub splash screen. I beleive it is gpt no efi as far as I can see. | 02:20 |
| jeetpei | i have my company built debian package. where we see logo gets currpt when we build using ant. we found a workaround that we can do ar vx deb package ... and copy good logo in it and again wrap up | 02:21 |
| yalex | Hello I'm mounting some samba shares in fstab but its giving the wrong groups on my ubuntu desktop. | 02:21 |
| wilee-nilee | tofa, From a live cd run this app, and the bootinfo summary and post the url generated this will give us a lot more info. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair | 02:21 |
| yalex | Is there a way to map groups from the samba server to the linux client? | 02:21 |
| wilee-nilee | run the summary only tofa | 02:21 |
| jrib | jeetpei: ok. So what is the problem? You've copied good logo and wrapped it up. What is left to do? | 02:21 |
| usr13 | yalex: How about nfs? | 02:22 |
| tofa | wilee-nilee, I installed that in the chroot environment and ran it to begin the boot. It sort of helped, will do what you ask. | 02:22 |
| yalex | The other PCs are windows so we only set it up as a samba server | 02:22 |
| usr13 | yalex: Is the server Linux as well? | 02:22 |
| yalex | Yes its ubuntu 12.04 LTS | 02:22 |
| jeetpei | still i see logo gets currpt when i wrap up | 02:23 |
| yalex | I'm assuming its because the group id is different on the server to the desktop? | 02:23 |
| wilee-nilee | tofa, For me if I can help the script is helpful to see much more info. | 02:23 |
| === xubuntu is now known as Gurew | ||
| jeetpei | i am asking am i right with ar r option ? | 02:23 |
| jrib | jeetpei: explain what "logo gets corrupt" means. You said the logo gets corrupt before you even bother with ar and replacing the logo. So why are you even still bothering with this? Isn't your issue elsewhere? | 02:23 |
| usr13 | yalex: The same shares can be samba and nfs. | 02:24 |
| jeetpei | yes i see some other branch works good with this approch | 02:24 |
| usr13 | yalex: chown root:users | 02:25 |
| tofa | wilee-nilee, here's the url http://paste.ubuntu.com/5913306/ | 02:25 |
| usr13 | yalex: or what-ever:users | 02:26 |
| jrib | jeetpei: make sure you are packaging back in the right order (binary, control, then data) | 02:26 |
| jeetpei | yes its right | 02:26 |
| sayakb | jrib: thanks, installed gnome-search-tool and integrated it with gedit | 02:27 |
| jrib | jeetpei: so your package works but the logo remains corrupted like it was before? | 02:27 |
| jeetpei | yes | 02:27 |
| jrib | jeetpei: so you need to explain what "logo gets corrupt" means. | 02:27 |
| usr13 | yalex: What is it now? (or what was it before?) | 02:27 |
| jrib | jeetpei: there might also be some issues with checksums that you need to worry about. | 02:28 |
| jeetpei | yes .. when i install my application in netgear6 i see UI shows currpted logo | 02:28 |
| jeetpei | ah i can check checksum of logo.png .. right ? | 02:28 |
| MasterShake | hey guys, for some reason my Linux chrubuntu 3.4.0 box is just simply not recognizing NAT, and im trying to configure my iptables. Can someone offer a hand? I've been at this all day, so it might take a little involvement if anyone feels like sparing a few moments of their time, | 02:28 |
| MasterShake | i get this error: iptables v1.4.12: can't initialize iptables table `nat': Table does not exist (do you need to insmod?) | 02:29 |
| MasterShake | Perhaps iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded." | 02:30 |
| ffio | where to ubuntu gets upstream packages from ? | 02:30 |
| ffio | s/to/do | 02:30 |
| wilee-nilee | tofa, The only efi I see is on the usb, you need grub in the mbr, run the chroot as grub-install /dev/sda : update-grub and reboot | 02:30 |
| wilee-nilee | grub-install /dev/sda ; update-grub | 02:30 |
| jeetpei | jrib: checksum is correct :( | 02:30 |
| jrib | jeetpei: Didn't you modify data by replacing a logo or something? I don't have experience actually modifying and rebuilding a binary package (sidenote: don't you have the source package), but it would seem odd to me that you make a modification to data and still checksum is correct | 02:32 |
| jrib | jeetpei: are you saying that the old logo file has the same checksum as the new one? | 02:33 |
| jeetpei | so you are talking about data.tar.gz 's checksum ? | 02:33 |
| MasterShake | any ideas guys? | 02:33 |
| jrib | jeetpei: look at md5sums in control.tar.gz | 02:33 |
| yalex | usr13, the group should be sambashare (and is on the server) but is mlocate on the my desktop | 02:33 |
| jeetpei | i am not modifying control.tar.gz does it make sense ? | 02:34 |
| jrib | jeetpei: what are you modifying? | 02:34 |
| checoimg | Hi guys , How do I set Bash to have a black Background ? | 02:34 |
| jrib | checoimg: right click in your terminal, edit profile | 02:34 |

| wilee-nilee | tofa, You also have partitions out of numerical order that can be problematic in some cases when trying to resize or delete a partition. | 02:35 |
| checoimg | Thank you guys! :D | 02:35 |
| checoimg | All set! | 02:35 |
| MasterShake | argh!!! i've been at this all day and it's driving me insane! why dont i have NAT enabled for?! | 02:35 |
| jeetpei | i am modifying only data.tar.gz by adding logo | 02:35 |
| yalex | is it due to sambashare having a different group id on the server to my ubuntu desktop machine? | 02:35 |
| MasterShake | checoimg: glad we could help =) | 02:35 |

| wilee-nilee | tofa, You had some problem in 12.04 is sda8 mountable at this point, I have a feeling we are trying to fix a broken system, am I right here? | 02:39 |
| jeetpei | jrib: thanks i am looking into control as well now.. may be i am messing something there when i modify data | 02:40 |
| jeetpei | jrib: thanks a lot | 02:40 |
| RXL | yep errors | 02:40 |
| yalex | usr13, the group is sambashare on the server but it becomes mlocate on my ubuntu desktop | 02:40 |
| usr13 | Well... | 02:40 |
| tofa | wilee nilee, No I got rid of the broken system. Someone had destoryed the kernel. | 02:41 |
| wilee-nilee | tofa, Has 13.04 ever booted? | 02:41 |
| jrib | jeetpei: why don't you give full path like I ask? Anyway, you will see that md5sum in control.tar.gz has md5sum for every file in data.tar.gz | 02:41 |
| tofa | wilee nilee, sort of, it got up to 'freeing kernel memory' and then hung. | 02:42 |
| varunendra | tofa, "Someone" ?? Make sure nobody is following you lately.. LOL.. | 02:42 |
| tofa | varunendra, ? | 02:43 |
| varunendra | You said "someone destroyed the kernel.." .. tofa ;) | 02:43 |
| wilee-nilee | tofa, Not sure of any fixes other than running a purge and reinstall of grub and making sure when asked you put grub in the sda the mbr, otherwise I would get the partition numbering fixed with a reinstall. | 02:43 |
| wilee-nilee | the out of sequence ias not the problem I think but not good overall. | 02:44 |
| jeetpei | jrib: which path you asking ? .. i am not sure .. neways i am looking into this .. ttyl | 02:44 |
| tofa | varunendra, yes it was wierd. | 02:44 |

| tofa | wilee-nilee, it says "Found linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-3.8.0-19-generic No volume groups found Found Microsoft Windows XP Professional on /dev/sda1 done" | 02:50 |
| wilee-nilee | tofa, Have you run grub-install /dev/sda | 02:50 |
| tofa | wilee nilee, not sure what you mean about the mbr | 02:50 |
| tofa | wilee-nilee, yes | 02:50 |
| wilee-nilee | tofa, My guess it will boot, but I never mess with boot partitions. | 02:51 |
| wilee-nilee | sda is the mbr | 02:51 |
| MasterShake | anybody can help with my NAT issue? | 02:53 |
| wilee-nilee | tofa, You see "Found initrd image: /boot/initrd.img-3.8.0-19-generic in that update? | 02:53 |
| whoever | MasterShake: sure ill give it a go | 02:53 |
| varunendra | wilee-nilee, I think the "chroot" environment may be causing trouble for tofa , it shouldn't be required for a simple setup. The "core.img" looking for partition 94 (??) is something I see in EFI setups only, unless it is a recent bug in boot-info-script. | 02:54 |
| === jeff__ is now known as jeff_liu_cn | ||
| wilee-nilee | varunendra, Might be the sda is no gpt or efi, just the usb shows a efi. | 02:54 |
| tofa | wilee-nilee, I'm a gentoo user, usually running a single boot laptop but a friend wants a dual boot ubuntu which I set up for him but he has messed up compltely and now I have to fix it. Oh well thanks for your help I'll try to boot. | 02:55 |
| wilee-nilee | looks like a standrad msdos HD | 02:55 |
| wilee-nilee | tofa, Hope your in, just enough anomalies for me to be well not quite sure. | 02:55 |
| varunendra | wilee-nilee, that's precisely why I doubt the chroot thing. It should be pretty straight forward, no chroot involved. | 02:56 |
| whoever | MasterShake: if you donn't talk i/we can't help. | 02:56 |
| whoever | all we know is that it is a nat issue | 02:56 |
| varunendra | tofa, what if you simply boot with the USB, forget chroot, install Boot-repair and use it for basic repair(s) (reinstall grub etc.)? | 02:57 |
| wilee-nilee | varunendra, Yeah, not sure I would think the chroot would be okay, do you mean since the efi is on the usb booted to the live? | 02:58 |
| wilee-nilee | +1 one on the boot repair, not running from a chroot though, it says in its info a install to the sda | 02:59 |
| varunendra | wilee-nilee, yeah. I'm not very familiar with chroot, but I think apart from the chrooted directory, it uses the source's configuration | 02:59 |
| wilee-nilee | varunendra, I rarely chroot, I just use supergrub if I screw up and do it from the desktop. | 02:59 |
| varunendra | I don't even know how to.. ;) | 03:00 |
| wilee-nilee | grub 2 is a whole lotta fun, works great when it works. ;) | 03:00 |
| Kitt3n | ^ Especially grub2-efi | 03:00 |
| surio | Hello room: :) I had previously installed 12.04.1 on a VM in Windows and tested it. It played well. So I installed it on my HDD. I have Broadcom BCM4313 and the STA driver that comes with Jockey does not behave well. Wifi gets disconnected 5 mins into connecting and doesn't connect afterwards. Only reboot works, and rinse, repeat!. | 03:00 |
| varunendra | lol ("when" is the key).. ;) | 03:00 |
| wilee-nilee | oooh yeah Kitt3n. ;) | 03:01 |
| MasterShake | whoever: sorry. im getting the error iptables v1.4.12: can't initialize iptables table `nat': Table does not exist (do you need to insmod?) | 03:01 |
| surio | I removed those drivers and http://wiki.debian.org/brcm80211 followed instructions provided for wheezy | 03:01 |
| MasterShake | whoever: i get that when i pass the "-t nat" argument into iptables | 03:01 |
| ni291187 | hello | 03:01 |
| wilee-nilee | hi what's up? | 03:01 |
| surio | I got errors about new package trying to replace the old package of the firmware... | 03:01 |
| varunendra | surio, first thing to try would be to remove the proprietary driver and try the native one - brcmsmac | 03:02 |
| surio | ^^ see my description varunendra | 03:02 |
| tofa | wilee-nilee, are you still around? | 03:02 |
| wilee-nilee | tofa, yeah. | 03:02 |
| varunendra | surio, is the proprietary driver (wl) currently installed? | 03:02 |
| surio | no I removed it before attempting this | 03:03 |
| surio | varunendra no I removed it before attempting this | 03:03 |
| varunendra | surio, did you try - "sudo modprobe -v brcmsmac" ?? | 03:03 |
| tofa | wilee-nilee, still no luck with the boot. Grub splash screen came up but ubuntu just hung with a flashing '-' when I tried to boot it. | 03:03 |
| * MasterShake takes a seat and waits for his ticket to be called | 03:04 | |
| varunendra | surio, the native brcmsmac driver works fine on 13.04 for this card. But a case of hit and miss on 12.04 | 03:04 |
| surio | varunendra, http://paste.ubuntu.com/5913398/ | 03:05 |
| surio | so what next? | 03:05 |
| trism | MasterShake: it probably means your kernel doesn't have CONFIG_NF_NAT | 03:05 |
| wilee-nilee | tofa, I'm not sure really with it never booting really I ahve to wonder if a reinstall might be needed, and just make sure grub is loaded to the sda=mbr by using the manula something else option, thats what I would do with a never boot. | 03:05 |
| varunendra | tofa, I think you should re post the boot-info report without the chroot environment (and after trying basic repair in same mode). | 03:05 |
| wilee-nilee | Xp boots though so seems to be a problem in ubuntu | 03:06 |
| wilee-nilee | the bootrepair may fix it yeah. | 03:06 |
| surio | varunendra, http://paste.ubuntu.com/5913398/ modprobe's output | 03:06 |
| varunendra | surio, does it make your wifi work as expected? | 03:06 |
| varunendra | just saw it :) | 03:07 |
| tofa | wilee-nilee, I have the boot partition on an extended partition, maybe that's a problem. And I tried using boot repair to fix it before, | 03:07 |
| varunendra | tofa, that is not a problem for Ubuntu or grub | 03:08 |
| tofa | varunendra, I didn't think so but I'm clutching at straws here. | 03:09 |
| surio | varunendra, no :( | 03:09 |
| surio | trying trying.......... | 03:09 |
| surio | varunendra, bbiab | 03:09 |
| wilee-nilee | tofa, I use supergrub on occasion to boot in and just do all the fixin from the dektop, it is a tiny download | 03:09 |
| wilee-nilee | desktop* | 03:10 |
| tofa | wilee-nilee, what is supergrub? Never heard of it. | 03:10 |
| varunendra | surio, please post outputs of - "lsmod", "iwconfig" and "sudo iwlist scan" | 03:10 |
| Compn | oh no, ubuntu calls it a 'folder' instead of a 'directory' | 03:10 |
| malgorath | I am trying to install 13.04 with uefi and after I rebooted I have no windows 8 or Ubuntu boot loader. only see DVD drive in boot list | 03:10 |
| varunendra | tofa, for the kind of setup you have, I would have simply installed Ubuntu from USB in normal way. I don't understand why you even bothered with chroot or grub installation. | 03:12 |
| tofa | wilee-nilee, could it be that the ubuntu 13.04 install is broken? | 03:12 |
| wilee-nilee | tofa, It is a boot in app, you download a tiny iso. http://www.supergrubdisk.org/ | 03:12 |
| wilee-nilee | tofa, I wonder that. | 03:12 |
| tofa | varunendra, I did and everything has gone wrong from there :P | 03:12 |
| varunendra | tofa, your original description - "tofa> wilee-nilee, ubuntu 12.04 broke completely (shared computer) couldn't fetch the archives to upgrade to a new kernel so I wrote 0's to the partition and put ubuntu 13.04 on it. Then chrooted into the OS and ran update-grub." | 03:14 |
| tofa | wilee-nilee, is there a way to check if the install is broken? | 03:14 |
| varunendra | tofa, "write 0s, chrooted, update-grub" are all unnecessary steps, probably causing the trouble. | 03:14 |
| delinquentme | when I do stat on a file ... what is Gid | 03:14 |
| p3rsist | Hi guys. How do I setup a program to be started immediately after my encrypted home partition is decrypted? | 03:15 |
| tofa | varunendra, I did all the chrooting and updating when the first boot problem came along. | 03:15 |
| wilee-nilee | tofa, Closest I know would to see if supergrub gets you booted, and thats not really a debug. | 03:15 |
| tofa | wilee-nilee, Will do. | 03:15 |
| varunendra | tofa, and that is absolutely not required. Most of us don't even know how to chroot and can install Ubuntu just fine.. | 03:15 |
| malgorath | I am only able to boot the DVD for Ubuntu 13.04 64-bit after installing | 03:16 |
| wilee-nilee | malgorath, And? | 03:16 |
| malgorath | I am trying to install 13.04 with uefi and after I rebooted I have no windows 8 or Ubuntu boot loader. only see DVD drive in boot list | 03:16 |
| tofa | varunendra, just to clarify. I didn't install via chroot. | 03:16 |
| wilee-nilee | !uefi | malgorath | 03:17 |
| ubottu | malgorath: UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware, it is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI | 03:17 |
| malgorath | wilee-nilee sorry doing irc from my iPad | 03:17 |
| RXL | Same problem I have, It boots to black screen, then I hit esc to boot | 03:17 |
| wilee-nilee | malgorath, Thats about it for me on uefi stuff. | 03:17 |
| wilee-nilee | malgorath, ;) | 03:17 |
| varunendra | tofa, when you have an issue, you should consider simplifying things, as much as possible. May be you can even try a single empty partition instead of separate /boot and /home. Of course if you don't have much to loose there. | 03:17 |
| malgorath | thx wilee-nilee I will see if I can fix it now from boot DVD | 03:19 |
| tofa | varunedra, I agree. If this was my machine I would back up and start again but I can't do that as it's someone elses. | 03:19 |
| varunendra | tofa, I think the only thing you initially did wrong was choosing to install grub on a partition instead of the MBR. | 03:19 |
| chamunks | Whats the best way to broadcast our own internet radio station. | 03:20 |
| chamunks | One of my followers wants to do a network radio station. | 03:20 |
| bossman759_ | it has to be radio? as in audio only? | 03:20 |
| wilee-nilee | chamunks, Followers? | 03:20 |
| chamunks | wilee-nilee, I run a minecraft network. | 03:21 |
| bossman759_ | you can broadcast google hangouts on youtube | 03:21 |
| chamunks | yeaa no | 03:21 |
| Compn | chamunks : icecast ? | 03:21 |
| chamunks | icecast? hmm I'll google that | 03:21 |
| tofa | varunendra, I've found on multiboot systems it's usually safer to have a seperate boot partition. I've even got one for my single boot laptop. | 03:21 |
| varunendra | tofa, I mean the grub bootstrap program, not the grub config files. Separate /boot partition is fine. It is the boot loader that needs to be on MBR. | 03:22 |
| wilee-nilee | tofa, I have 4 OS one is W8 been runnig this way for years with no boot partition. | 03:23 |
| tofa | wilee-nilee, probably an unnecessary precaution. But this is the first time I've had an issue. | 03:24 |
| varunendra | tofa, during the installation, did you chose "Something else" option at the partitioning stage? I think you might have to manually tell the installer where the /boot partition is, so that grub gets installed correctly. | 03:25 |
| tofa | varunendra, Yes I did. I told it where the boot partition was and the home partition. | 03:25 |
| wilee-nilee | the mbr was empty is all | 03:26 |
| varunendra | tofa, in the same screen, it seems you chose a partition instead of the drive (sda<something> instead of sda). That was a wrong step. | 03:27 |
| wilee-nilee | When people want say easybcd for a bootloader you would install grub to the partition to keep the windows bootloader. | 03:27 |
| varunendra | for grub (boot loader) , tofa | 03:27 |
| tofa | wilee-nilee, Ok I've got the super grub thing going. | 03:27 |
| varunendra | oh yeah, with easy BCD it's a different thing wilee-nilee | 03:27 |
| wilee-nilee | tofa, Choose the boot any or find any is I forget what it says exactly. | 03:28 |
| wilee-nilee | varunendra, True I'm just saying if you want no grub menu you install to the partition. ;) | 03:28 |
| varunendra | Yup :) | 03:29 |
| tofa | wilee-nilee, oh god everything is stuffed! | 03:29 |
| varunendra | :/ | 03:29 |
| tofa | wilee-nilee, it can't detect the ubuntu partition and when I boot into vmlinux it can't find the root. | 03:30 |
| wilee-nilee | tofa, Ah, sounds like a bad install to begin with is my guess. | 03:30 |
| surio | varunendra, http://paste.ubuntu.com/5913464/ Here's all those outputs you asked... | 03:31 |
| surio | varunendra, do you think reboot will help? | 03:31 |
| d4gg3r | I want to compare two of my latex files and see the similarities between them. Any recommendation? | 03:31 |
| tofa | wilee-nilee, I agree. I think my iso must be damaged I'll redownload and reinstall. | 03:31 |
| tofa | d4gg3r, difftex. | 03:31 |
| wilee-nilee | tofa, Cool, good luck. | 03:32 |
| varunendra | surio, sometimes, when there is a driver conflict and the offending one can't be removed normally.. | 03:32 |
| varunendra | surio, wl is still loaded and conflicting for sure. | 03:32 |
| surio | modprobe -r wl ?? | 03:32 |
| varunendra | tofa, I'd recomend torrent for download | 03:32 |
| varunendra | surio, yes "sudo modprobe -rfv wl" | 03:33 |
| === ubuntu is now known as DraugR | ||
| varunendra | surio, did it finish successfully? The modprobe -rfv wl | 03:33 |
| d4gg3r | tofa, does it show the similarities? is there any way | 03:33 |
| d4gg3r | ? | 03:33 |
| tofa | varunendra, I use unetbootin to create the usb is that fine for ubuntu or should I use something else? | 03:33 |
| surio | varunendra, "FATAL: Module wl not found." o_O now what? | 03:33 |
| surio | tofa, unetbootin is fine | 03:34 |
| varunendra | tofa, unetbootin or anything that works is fine. | 03:34 |
| varunendra | surio, just reboot then.. :/ | 03:34 |
| surio | tofa use a different usb? | 03:34 |
| tofa | d4gg3r, I haven't used it for a long while but I remember it being good. | 03:35 |
| surio | sometimes flash mem corruption is not detcted | 03:35 |
| varunendra | tofa, surio, as long as the usb is able to boot, it is fine too. | 03:35 |
| surio | varunendra, I have helped people on crunchbang, with a booting usb that borks the install.. Changing the USB helps, and a subsequent disk probe reveals errors | 03:36 |
| surio | hence the suggestion :-) | 03:36 |
| varunendra | surio, wait.. | 03:36 |
| varunendra | reboot is not required | 03:36 |
| surio | still here :) | 03:36 |
| surio | was typing that response ;) | 03:36 |
| surio | so, let's go? | 03:36 |
| varunendra | surio, try - "sudo ifconfig eth2 down" | 03:37 |
| surio | man, right now eth is the only way I am communicating here | 03:37 |
| surio | nothing on console | 03:37 |
| surio | command executed though | 03:38 |
| === don is now known as Guest39228 | ||
| varunendra | surio, then - "sudo modprobe -rfv brcmsmac" .... then ... "sudo modprobe -v brcmsmac" (eth2 is in your iwconfig, maybe that's why wl is still loaded) | 03:38 |
| varunendra | surio, our target here is to unload wl (it shouldn't appear in lsmod), THEN load brcmsmac | 03:39 |
| === carlos is now known as Guest9118 | ||
| surio | lsmod >> "wl 3074942 0 " still there :( | 03:39 |
| surio | and wireless still won't blinking connect | 03:40 |
| varunendra | surio, assuming "bcmwl-kernel-source" is purged, just reboot :( | 03:40 |
| varunendra | surio, as a side note, you should get rid of TKIP in the router. | 03:41 |
| surio | le sigh! | 03:41 |
| surio | what's that? | 03:41 |
| surio | let's do it now... shall I open 192.168.1.1 ?? | 03:41 |
| varunendra | surio, pure WPA2-PSK (AES) is recommended. TKIP is the encryption method, which is outdated and doesn't work well with linux. | 03:42 |
| surio | oh... wep | 03:42 |
| surio | yes, yes.. it is on the cards :) | 03:42 |
| surio | The ISP provider set it up like that | 03:42 |
| surio | After I get it working, I will update these... | 03:43 |
| varunendra | surio, no wep, no wpa/wpa2 mixed mode, .... pure wpa2 with AES instead on TKIP | 03:43 |
| varunendra | :) | 03:43 |
| tofa | wilee-nilee, I've made a new usb with a new iso on a new flash drive and have booted into the system. Can you take me through the install so this boot problem goes away? | 03:43 |
| surio | I understand. I will definitely do it over the weekend. okay see you in a bit :) | 03:43 |
| wilee-nilee | tofa, Did you save home? | 03:44 |
| tofa | wilee-nilee, /home is on a seperate partition. | 03:44 |
| wilee-nilee | tofa, I have never separated home, so I'm not sure there to be honest. | 03:44 |
| tofa | wilee-nilee, ok thanks. | 03:45 |
| varunendra | tofa, just goto manual partitioning mode and don't tell the installer that you have a separate /home. You can configure it later if required. | 03:45 |
| wilee-nilee | tofa, My brain is about the size of a walnut I keep it really simple. ;) | 03:45 |
| varunendra | lol !! | 03:46 |
| wilee-nilee | me and homer simpson yah know | 03:46 |
| tofa | wilee-nilee, :) | 03:46 |
| xmetal | hmm | 03:47 |
| surio | varunendra, nope! There is no wl in lsmod, but the blinking thing still won't connect! | 03:48 |
| varunendra | surio, is brcmsmac loaded now? Output of - "lspci -nnk | grep -iA3 net" | 03:49 |
| varunendra | and lsmod | 03:49 |
| xmetal | having issue with a "fork os" (no one ever seems to be talking in their room) ... boots liveUSb (That i know works 100%) to the point where it starts scrolling fast and (?? @ my way of explaining) shows a gray BG and shows the cursor (never response) and just "sits there" | 03:49 |

| xmetal | searching the web now | 03:49 |
| tofa | wilee-nilee, installer is installing. | 03:50 |

| chamunks | MOD5RN_W4RFAR5, I really hate your irc name | 04:03 |
| chamunks | its so long I cant shrink my ychat window | 04:03 |
| complearning123 | is there a chat where i can get help with ubuntu | 04:04 |
| complearning123 | or a forum | 04:04 |
| complearning123 | does anyone know | 04:04 |
| surio | installing, varunendra :) | 04:04 |
| wilee-nilee | complearning123, Try #ubuntu | 04:04 |
| complearning123 | i was told to come here | 04:04 |
| varunendra | !ask | complearning123 | 04:04 |
| ubottu | complearning123: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience | 04:04 |
| varunendra | wilee-nilee, ?? LOL | 04:04 |
| complearning123 | i thought this was #ubuntu | 04:04 |
| surio | complearning123, just type your question... | 04:04 |
| clue_h | complearning123, or http://ubuntuforums.org cache | 04:05 |
| QTPieMan | varunendra, can u tell me do i need some special permission for server? | 04:05 |
| surio | complearning123, just type your question... | 04:05 |
| wilee-nilee | varunendra, ;) | 04:05 |
| complearning123 | you really make a guy feel welcome | 04:05 |
| bberrymerry | can i post a question? | 04:05 |
| clue_h | no | 04:05 |
| QTPieMan | clue_h, ubuntu forum is no more -_- | 04:05 |
| wilee-nilee | complearning123, You have to have some patience you are welcome here. ;) | 04:05 |
| surio | complearning123, please... just type the question, bberrymerry same for you too :) | 04:06 |
| clue_h | complearning123, i am all ears too | 04:06 |
| clue_h | so to speak | 04:06 |
| varunendra | QTPieMan, I never dealt with a server, but what kind of permissions and where ? Maybe ask to the channel instead of individuals.. | 04:06 |
| complearning123 | i installed ubuntu 10.04 then upgraded to latest version of ubuntu and now i cannot open ubuntu....says that the files are bad | 04:06 |
| bberrymerry | any way to speed up ubuntu 13.04 guest booting in virtual box? i switched to xfce4, it still takes a long time to boot | 04:06 |
| complearning123 | what can i do | 04:07 |
| clue_h | QTPieMan, true but the cached pages can be accessed :] | 04:07 |
| wilee-nilee | complearning123, You might just consider install 12.04 if that is what you mean by latest if this is a fresh install upgraded. | 04:07 |
| QTPieMan | clue_h, great idea | 04:07 |
| surio | varunendra, First I got some error, and when I clicked "show details" the whole thing crashed | 04:07 |
| varunendra | surio, so you're on a reboot now? | 04:08 |
| QTPieMan | varunendra, i mean lets say while uplpading a file or adding a file its not working | 04:08 |
| surio | not really... the crash gen application crashed! | 04:08 |
| clue_h | complearning123, a fresh install of 12,04 lts. | 04:08 |
| surio | retyped the command, and gor | 04:08 |
| surio | retyped the command, and got | 04:08 |
| surio | "surio@surio-pc:~$ sudo apt-get install bcmwl-kernel-source=5.100.82.38+bdcom-0ubuntu6 | 04:08 |
| surio | Reading package lists... Done | 04:08 |
| surio | Building dependency tree | 04:08 |
| surio | Reading state information... Done | 04:08 |
| surio | bcmwl-kernel-source is already the newest version. | 04:08 |
| FloodBot1 | surio: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 04:08 |
| wilee-nilee | complearning123, trying to find what the bad files means may be pointless and a waste of time. | 04:08 |
| complearning123 | cant i use the command e2fsck to fix files | 04:08 |
| xmetal | i need to figure out the way to get this liveusb to ast least try to boot in "low graphics mode" | 04:08 |
| complearning123 | and exactly what is the format | 04:08 |
| surio | whoops | 04:09 |
| surio | sorry | 04:09 |
| surio | Thought it would go on single line (4 lines only) | 04:09 |
| wilee-nilee | surio, You familiar with pastebin? | 04:09 |
| surio | ya ya.. | 04:09 |
| wilee-nilee | ;) | 04:09 |
| varunendra | surio, what does "dpkg -s bcmwl-kernel-source | grep -i version" show? | 04:09 |
| varunendra | then use it.. ;) | 04:09 |
| wilee-nilee | the bits are mean they just don't care | 04:09 |
| surio | I thought they will line up inline :P | 04:09 |
| wilee-nilee | bots* | 04:09 |
| surio | thanks smarties... like I don't know :P | 04:10 |
| surio | varunendra, "Version: 5.100.82.38+bdcom-0ubuntu6 | 04:10 |
| surio | " | 04:10 |
| surio | so we've rolled back? | 04:11 |
| complearning123 | ok bye guys thanx | 04:11 |
| surio | varunendra, I reconnected, and it connected! | 04:11 |
| varunendra | surio, yeah now you are back to the wl driver, only the older version... how does it work? | 04:11 |
| surio | complearning123, you solved? | 04:11 |
| complearning123 | no | 04:11 |
| AssFeverz | hi | 04:12 |
| varunendra | let's see if it stays connected.. surio | 04:12 |
| surio | complearning123, The point is an upgrade from 10 to 12 is fraught with failure... | 04:12 |
| complearning123 | i think im just going to reinstall ubuntu 10.04 | 04:12 |
| surio | It is far better to reinstall 12.04 | 04:12 |
| varunendra | complearning123, do you have anything important to save on the installation? If not, just do a fresh install of 12.04 | 04:12 |
| wilee-nilee | offensive nicks are usually a pre-cursor to troubles | 04:12 |
| surio | complearning123, please don't go back 10 10.04... no londer supported and things will fail badly | 04:13 |
| complearning123 | i have 10.04 disk but not 12,04 and it takes forever to dl it | 04:13 |
| Compn | chamunks : icecast? like 10 years ago. and only with winamp, on windows. i'm not sure if icecast is the current way to do it, looks kind of outdated now. check http://www.shoutcast.com/broadcast-tools | 04:13 |
| chamunks | icecast2 seemed like the deal | 04:13 |
| complearning123 | ok ill try and dl 12.04 | 04:13 |
| chamunks | its aptgettable. | 04:13 |
| complearning123 | thanx | 04:13 |
| surio | complearning123, not so bad is it... I am on a slow connection myself and the thing downloaded in a few hours max | 04:13 |
| complearning123 | yeah youre right surio | 04:14 |
| varunendra | complearning123, an upgrade will download almost the same amount of data.. | 04:14 |
| complearning123 | that upgrade screwed me up | 04:14 |
| surio | it's worth it.... and you're hassle free until 2017 | 04:14 |
| varunendra | complearning123, use torrent for downloading | 04:14 |
| complearning123 | right thanks guys | 04:14 |
| complearning123 | cant my isp blocks it | 04:14 |
| varunendra | :( | 04:14 |
| surio | complearning123, it is a known fact... 10 to 12 is rarely if ever, successful | 04:14 |
| complearning123 | well now i dont feel so dumb | 04:15 |
| complearning123 | i thought i did something wrong | 04:15 |
| medubuntu | Empathy doesn't show all notifications(ubuntu 13.04) | 04:15 |
| surio | relax... don't do it.. frankie goes to hollywood :P | 04:15 |
| chamunks | Compn, is icecast itself not a relay? | 04:15 |
| chamunks | one of my associates is having a meltdown over this question. | 04:15 |
| surio | Right, ciao for now... thanks varunendra :) | 04:16 |
| Compn | chamunks : oh you want like a 3rd party to host the radio for you ? | 04:16 |
| varunendra | surio, np :) | 04:16 |
| Compn | host the stream | 04:16 |
| surio | I feel a little idiotic rolling back to older versions... varunendra | 04:16 |
| chamunks | Compn, nah we've got a crappy little 5$ vps somewhere on ubuntu | 04:16 |
| * holstein used to run an icecast server | 04:16 | |
| Compn | ask holstein :) | 04:16 |
| * Compn cant remember for crap | 04:16 | |
| complearning123 | okay roomies thanks alot ill dl 12.04 have a great weekend everyone | 04:17 |
| varunendra | surio, we deviced that workaround after a lot of testing.. | 04:17 |
| surio | I mean, on my next apt-get upgrade, are we not going to roll back to the new driver again? | 04:17 |
| medubuntu | Empathy doesn't show all notifications | 04:17 |
| chamunks | holstein, we're just trying to send our audio to the icecast server then have that bounce off to the clients | 04:17 |
| chamunks | how ever that happens. | 04:17 |
| yuanjie | hello | 04:17 |
| surio | complearning123, byeee... | 04:17 |
| complearning123 | au revoir surio | 04:17 |
| holstein | medubuntu: what is it that you want it to show, specificially? without repeating the same question, please | 04:17 |
| varunendra | surio, in fact there is a way in apt to "PIN" a version if you don't want to upgrade it (see "man apt_preferences") | 04:18 |
| surio | bberrymerry, I tink in general Vbox is slow... because of the layers | 04:18 |
| yuanjie | who can help me ? i can't use ubuntu | 04:18 |
| medubuntu | In 13.04, Empathy doesn't show all the bubble notifications and it can't be configured. In the preferences, I can only configure sounds notifications but not visuals. Empathy only shows bubble notifications when someone sends me a message, but not when someone gets connected or disconnected (in these cases I can hear a sound but without a bubble). ¿Is there a way to turn all the notifications on? | 04:18 |
| holstein | chamunks: it happens like this.. the users connect with a player, or in the browser.. you connect with a client to the server to stream whatever | 04:18 |
| holstein | chamunks: depending on what you are streaming would dictate the client i would suggest | 04:19 |
| bberrymerry | surio: much faster with 11.04 and 12.04 | 04:19 |
| holstein | !info idjc | 04:19 |
| surio | varunendra, I have made a note, but my main motivation for installing 12.04.2 is from the LTS aspect | 04:19 |
| ubottu | idjc (source: idjc): graphical shoutcast/icecast client. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 0.8.8-1 (raring), package size 1363 kB, installed size 3786 kB | 04:19 |
| bberrymerry | surio: i disabled unity, it's still slow to boot and run | 04:19 |
| chamunks | holstein, well we're looking to basically do a 24/7 stream of whatever including some apparently live broadcasts of our teamspeak banter. | 04:19 |
| surio | bberrymerry, sorry, for some reason, my VBoxes are all slow, hence my remark.. and I sort of lived with it :) | 04:19 |
| yuanjie | who can help me ? | 04:19 |
| holstein | !ask | yuanjie | 04:19 |
| ubottu | yuanjie: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience | 04:19 |
| varunendra | surio, unless you "PIN" this version, it will again get upgraded to version 6... while updating, which is no good. In 13.04 or 14.04, the native brcmsmac is good enough. | 04:20 |
| surio | yuanjie, type your question! | 04:20 |
| chamunks | yuanjie, only those who have the answer to the question for which you have not asked yet. | 04:20 |
| bberrymerry | maybe i'll try a xubuntu install instead, instead of ubuntu | 04:20 |
| surio | varunendra, the next LTS is 14.04 ? | 04:20 |
| varunendra | yes | 04:20 |
| holstein | bberrymerry: xubuntu *is* ubuntu.. try it | 04:20 |
| yuanjie | yes | 04:20 |
| surio | varunendra, you are running 13? | 04:20 |
| yuanjie | i can't use ubuntu who can teach me | 04:21 |
| surio | yuanjie, this is not a tutorial class, we help you with "specific" problems.. :) | 04:21 |
| holstein | !install | yuanjie | 04:21 |
| ubottu | yuanjie: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall - See also !automate | 04:21 |
| varunendra | surio, 12.04, but mine is an atheros card, not broadcom :) | 04:21 |
| yuanjie | i have learn english one month | 04:21 |
| chamunks | holstein, what would you imagine. Some of us are using windows and such but I think that we managed to configure the icecast.xml in /etc/icecast2/ | 04:21 |
| holstein | yuanjie: if you dont want to, or dont know how to install, just run it live | 04:22 |
| surio | varunendra, :( well, lucky you! | 04:22 |
| yuanjie | yes ! holstein | 04:22 |
| holstein | chamunks: i wouldnt imagine anything.. i would just confirm the server works with a client such as the one i just linked | 04:22 |
| surio | okay varunendra I will look into pinning it on version 5 | 04:22 |
| medubuntu | http://askubuntu.com/questions/291155/empathy-doesnt-show-all-notifications | 04:22 |
| yuanjie | i can't install any software | 04:22 |
| chamunks | holstein, wait a sec where now? | 04:22 |
| holstein | chamunks: this is the simple tool i used to use http://butt.sourceforge.net/ | 04:23 |
| varunendra | surio, I don't even have wireless networks around to test.... any modifications to your "lucky" comment now ;P | 04:23 |
| holstein | !info idjc | 04:23 |
| ubottu | idjc (source: idjc): graphical shoutcast/icecast client. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 0.8.8-1 (raring), package size 1363 kB, installed size 3786 kB | 04:23 |
| yuanjie | thank you ! | 04:23 |
| holstein | ^^ chamunks, that is anothiner | 04:23 |
| holstein | another* | 04:23 |
| yuanjie | i have learned ! | 04:23 |
| chamunks | holstein, right thank you I found butt on a youboob video | 04:23 |
| holstein | chamunks: there are other options such as darkice that use JACK, but i would consider that overkill for your purposes | 04:23 |
| Anaxandridas | Hi, guys, total noob here. Is Ubuntu particularly well suited to running VMs of significant size in it? Like, having one large VM that essentially acts as your computer, which you use for gaming, internet, everything. | 04:24 |
| chamunks | yea more then likely. | 04:24 |
| chamunks | its just an amature setup. | 04:24 |
| surio | see you all laters | 04:24 |
| holstein | Anaxandridas: i wouldnt game in a VM | 04:24 |
| Anaxandridas | Why is that? | 04:24 |
| holstein | Anaxandridas: performance | 04:25 |
| Anaxandridas | If that's a stupid question, I doubly apologise. I don't know WHY it's a stupid question, which is why I'm asking :D | 04:25 |
| Anaxandridas | Can you elaborate? | 04:25 |
| clue_h | You're already using processor time and memory to create and run a vm | 04:25 |
| medubuntu | :/ | 04:25 |
| holstein | Anaxandridas: not really.. the performance is not acceptable on my, or most hardware to host a virtual instance of an operating system for gaming | 04:25 |
| chamunks | holstein, seems we're having issues | 04:25 |
| yuanjie | 有人懂中文吗 | 04:26 |
| holstein | chamunks: sure.. and you really dont know where | 04:26 |
| chamunks | may I PM you some details if you could maybe ping it yourself? | 04:26 |
| holstein | chamunks: what would i do? create one locally.. remove variables and test | 04:26 |
| chamunks | or I could pastebin our XML to see what can be done of course sanitized | 04:26 |
| holstein | chamunks: sure | 04:26 |
| chamunks | just so someone with eyes for this may be able to assist. | 04:26 |
| holstein | chamunks: you may query me | 04:27 |
| nathanbz | why is /etc/sysctl.conf missing on a fresh 12.04 install ? | 04:28 |
| medubuntu | :( not solution http://askubuntu.com/questions/291155/empathy-doesnt-show-all-notifications | 04:28 |
| holstein | medubuntu: what *specifically* are you trying to see? | 04:28 |
| bberrymerry | holstein: just wondering if xubuntu loads less services on startup compared to stock ubuntu, so it should load faster | 04:29 |
| bberrymerry | Anaxandridas: i use OS X as a host, multiple ubuntu VMs for servers | 04:29 |
| bberrymerry | Anaxandridas: no problems at all if you run a server instance, but ubuntu desktop in a vm is a bit slow | 04:30 |
| Anaxandridas | I'll be using Ubuntu as a host, I have no use for servers or anything like that. | 04:30 |
| holstein | bberrymerry: the reason to choose xubuntu is for xubuntu. xfce, the look and feel. the default applications | 04:30 |
| holstein | bberrymerry: it should seem faster, but at the end of it all, its still the same hardware | 04:30 |
| Anaxandridas | More like... Let's say if someone (hypothetically speaking) played a lot of torrented games. I figured maybe having a VM in which they played all those games, then just regularly wiping it, would be the most expedient solution to exploitations. | 04:30 |
| nathanbz | anyone ? | 04:30 |
| holstein | Anaxandridas: torrented games? | 04:31 |
| holstein | Anaxandridas: dont run "unsafe" games.. in VM or on metal | 04:31 |
| bberrymerry | Anaxandridas: windows games run badly in a vm :) | 04:31 |
| Anaxandridas | holstein, not entirely sure what the question there was. | 04:31 |
| holstein | Anaxandridas: games in general dont run well in VM | 04:32 |
| Anaxandridas | Also, I just accidentally closed the channel :P | 04:32 |
| bberrymerry | Anaxandridas: you need direct access to the hardware to get good 3d gaming performance, otherwise it's too slow | 04:32 |
| holstein | Anaxandridas: try it and see | 04:32 |
| bberrymerry | Anaxandridas: old point and click games are ok though | 04:32 |
| Anaxandridas | holstein, tried it with Windows XP before, didn't work. I'll take your word on it. | 04:32 |
| holstein | Anaxandridas: all i said was, dont run "unsafe" games at all.. in VM or otherwise | 04:32 |
| Anaxandridas | holstein, so the best advice would be... Have a completely different computer for "unsafe" games? | 04:32 |
| medubuntu | holstein | 04:32 |
| medubuntu | if new contacts entered Empathy doesn't show notifications | 04:32 |
| holstein | medubuntu: its not supposed to.. i would file a bug with empathy if you feel its a bug | 04:33 |
| holstein | medubuntu: have you found an empathy support venue? | 04:33 |
| holstein | medubuntu: https://wiki.gnome.org/Empathy#Contact_Information is where i would start.. | 04:34 |
| bberrymerry | Anaxandridas: if you could image an existing windows partition, then you could use that... just wipe it and re-install the image if you get infected | 04:34 |
| Anaxandridas | Image an existing windows partition... ? | 04:35 |
| Anaxandridas | I'm sorry, bberrymerry, I'm REALLY noob. | 04:35 |
| medubuntu | holstein | 04:35 |
| medubuntu | thanks very much :) | 04:35 |
| yalex | hello how can i export a list of installed packages in ubuntu 12.04? | 04:35 |
| chamunks | holstein, my irc client pooed so I switched to something else. | 04:36 |
| holstein | Anaxandridas: you "clone" the "good" system.. experience an error, and revert to the saved clone | 04:36 |
| holstein | Anaxandridas: this would be arguably good practice for any OS | 04:36 |
| bberrymerry | image, as in make an exact partition copy of it... i don't know if there are any open source solutions, for commercial there's stuff like pqmagic or ghost | 04:36 |
| bberrymerry | any good open source cloning/imaging programs? that can handle ntfs | 04:37 |
| holstein | bberrymerry: "good" is a matter of opinion.. i like using clonezilla live | 04:38 |
| lotuspsychje | yalex: like backping up favorite packages? | 04:38 |
| yalex | yes lotuspsychje , need a list of all installed packages | 04:38 |
| bberrymerry | holstein: good as in reliable for cloning ntfs | 04:38 |
| lotuspsychje | !info aptoncd | yalex | 04:39 |

| holstein | bberrymerry: i still stand by my recommendation | 04:40 |
| glebihan | yalex, dpkg-query -l | grep "ii " will list all installed packages dpkg --get-selections will list the ones that were manually installed | 04:43 |
| dex | hey guys | 04:44 |
| dex | when the heck the forum is going to be normal? | 04:45 |
| yalex | thanks glebihan how can i use dpkg to export all installed packages to use on another machine to install them? | 04:45 |
| dex | I'm really sick of ending up at maintenance page after seeking solutions thru google | 04:45 |
| lotuspsychje | dex: plz keep it polite in here | 04:45 |

| santhosh | hai how to install .exe file in linux woth out wine is there ant alternative software for that ine | 06:22 |
| cfhowlett | santhosh, windows files run in windows. wine provides a layer to emulate a windows environment. No emulator, no install. | 06:24 |
| DuncanNZ | Can I use the `command-not-found` program (which suggests a package to install if you type a command from a package not installed) on zsh? It works already on bash. | 06:24 |
| santhosh | is there any similar software like a wine to create layer like windows | 06:25 |
| cfhowlett | santhosh, look in the software center. some reason you can't use wine? | 06:26 |
| nate15329 | santhosh, try using letsplayonlinux (it runs on wine but more configurable and user friendlier) | 06:26 |
| cfhowlett | santhosh, perhaps install windows inside a virtualbox and run your program there. | 06:27 |
| santhosh | but dot net frameworks are installed on playon linux | 06:27 |
| santhosh | no <cfhowlett> i have software on windows i want to migrate in linux in that case iam asking | 06:28 |
| cfhowlett | santhosh, you know how Apple progams don't run natively on anything except Apple? Same rule applies. | 06:29 |
| santhosh | so im not install .netframeworks in linux is there any soluation for install .netframework | 06:30 |
| nate15329 | dot net frameworks are supported, i believe. may have to tell it to use the mono project...its been a while since i used playonlinux | 06:30 |
| situ | Is there a way to avoid routing all traffic through VPN after a user connects to VPN ? | 06:30 |
| nate15329 | mono project is the closest thing to the .net framework in linux | 06:31 |

| Anaxandridas | Hi guys, noob here. Wanted to install Cinnamon, because I'm still detoxing from Windows and it looks similar. Went to this site, put in the said commands. http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-cinnamon-1-8-on-ubuntu-13-04.html. | 07:27 |
| Anaxandridas | Nothing has changed though. Advise? | 07:28 |

| === FreeBuntu is now known as Sysiphus | ||
| aeon-ltd | zeev_: [never tried this before] couldn't you just have a user account with no priviliges so they couldn't change anything to executable? | 07:31 |
| wilee-nilee | Anaxandridas, Cinnamon is in the repos for raring | 07:31 |
| === maxb_ is now known as maxb | ||
| Anaxandridas | wilee-nilee, what does that mean? I'm a noob. | 07:32 |
| Anaxandridas | "In the repos for raring"? | 07:32 |
| babinlonston | Who need Cinnamon ? | 07:32 |
| wilee-nilee | Anaxandridas, It means you don't need a ppa repos are repositories ubuntu has there own, its where you get packages. | 07:32 |
| auronandace | !software | Anaxandridas | 07:33 |
| ubottu | Anaxandridas: A general introduction to the ways software can be installed, removed and managed in Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoftwareManagement - See also !Packages, !Equivalents | 07:33 |
| Anaxandridas | ... wilee-nilee, that's great, but I still don't know how to put cinnamon on the computer. | 07:33 |
| zeev_ | aeon-ltd: but if they copy something that has already x privilige? | 07:33 |
| lauratika | Anaxandridas: llok for it in ubuntu centre | 07:33 |
| Anaxandridas | I did that. Searching for cinnamon didn't bring it up. | 07:33 |
| aeon-ltd | zeev_: ... didn' think about that | 07:33 |
| Anaxandridas | I can find it other ways, but it says it's on there now. | 07:34 |
| wilee-nilee | Anaxandridas, If you have installed the ppa if you want that one did you run a update? | 07:34 |
| babinlonston | Anaxandridas: https://github.com/babinlonston/Ubuntu-Linux-Stuffs/wiki/How-to-Install-latest-Cinnamon-1.6.4-in-Ubuntu-12.10-12.04-Linux-Mint | 07:34 |
| aeon-ltd | zeev_: strip the UI, remove keybindings, limit menus? | 07:34 |
| Anaxandridas | So I have an option to remove it... wilee-nilee, yes, I ran the update. | 07:34 |
| wilee-nilee | babinlonston, you are not helping. | 07:34 |
| babinlonston | Anaxandridas: Have a look at my git hub | 07:34 |
| babinlonston | wilee-nilee: whts wrong ? | 07:35 |
| wilee-nilee | babinlonston, It is in the ubuntu repos in raring | 07:35 |
| Anaxandridas | babinlonston, I already did that. I'm doing it again now, to be sure, but it looks like that's the same thing as on the site I already pulled up. | 07:35 |
| babinlonston | fine | 07:36 |
| wilee-nilee | Anaxandridas, PPA's are generally not supported here, so it might be worth removing the PPA and installing from ubuntu. it is up to you, All you have to do to install is in the terminal run sudo apt-get install cinnamon. | 07:37 |
| === scx_ is now known as scx | ||
| Anaxandridas | Second time through doing that, I put in "apt-get install build-essential" and got told this... "Could not open lock file var/lib/dpkg/locl. Unable to lock the administrator directory. | 07:37 |
| reisio | yeah if you can get it from an official repo, why wouldn't you | 07:37 |
| Anaxandridas | reisio, while I appreciate the rhetoric, I'm asking you how to do exactly that. So we don't need to philosophize. | 07:38 |
| wilee-nilee | Anaxandridas, You can only have one install app open at once. | 07:38 |
| Anaxandridas | wilee-nilee, is there a way I can wipe that and start over? And do it properly? | 07:38 |
| reisio | Anaxandridas: I just got here :) | 07:38 |
| Sysiphus | Hi , I am looking for somebody that tells me how to get "FreeBSD 5" and "Ubuntu 10.04" running as a Dual-Boot-System | 07:38 |
| paolob | Hi guys! what streaming platform are there which can deliver content to all clients? I'm looking for an alternative to ms silverlight to uso on my web site | 07:38 |
| reisio | Sysiphus: install one, then install the other, that's 99% of it | 07:38 |
| babinlonston | Anaxandridas: i have installed 30 client machine here in office , in ubuntu 12.04 we installed cinnamoan and its working fine | 07:39 |
| aeon-ltd | paolob: mp4+html5? | 07:39 |
| wilee-nilee | Anaxandridas, Do you have the software center open? | 07:39 |
| reisio | paolob: silverlight is a browser plugin, you don't really need one of those to stream things | 07:39 |
| Anaxandridas | You guys are saying to install it through the software center. Which is seems to have done (now it tells me I can only remove it). So, would removing it and reinstalling it from the same place do anything? | 07:39 |
| reisio | paolob: you just need a streaming server, like icecast :) | 07:39 |
| Anaxandridas | babinlonston, I appreciate that you have successfully installed it. I need to install it, too. | 07:39 |
| === scx_ is now known as scx | ||

| babinlonston | ok guys did u guys need proof its supporting me ? | 07:46 |
| Anaxandridas | wilee-nilee, help is appreciated rather more than luck ;) | 07:46 |
| dance4x | does anyone here have the sable complete from system76? thinking about getting it but looking for some reviews. | 07:47 |
| babinlonston | Anaxandridas: install virtual manager with kvm and install ubuntu12.04 in it and then install cinnamon in it and check its supporting or not after there try in your base system if u feel any think go wrong | 07:47 |
| reisio | I don't know what you guys are talking about now | 07:49 |
| reisio | but kvm to try cinnamon sounds like a huge waste of time :) | 07:49 |
| wilee-nilee | I give up. lol | 07:49 |
| Anaxandridas | So, I've gotten three answers now. One is "your question is not supported", which I don't really understand, as this seems to be a chat room for #ubuntu questions, by people who just feel like helping out. One is "do the exact same thing you did, that rendered no result, which is why you came here," and the last is "use KVM to install ubuntu12.04 and then install cinnamon in it" which I'm not | 07:51 |
| Anaxandridas | sure makes sense... But maybe I'm just too stupid to see it. | 07:51 |
| reisio | Anaxandridas: tell me what the initial problem was :) | 07:51 |
| chalcedony | :) | 07:52 |
| * reisio isn't paid by Canonical | 07:52 | |
| chalcedony | reisio, that's nice | 07:52 |
| Anaxandridas | Ultimate, the question is... I installed it via directions from the sites previously posted, AND I have installed it via software center. However, I am still not looking at a Cinnamon desktop. | 07:52 |
| reisio | ikr? :) | 07:52 |

| dance4x | is there really any difference between getting a device from system76 vs getting one from asus and then putting ubuntu on it? | 07:53 |
| reisio | dance4x: the only for sure difference is that if you get it from asus, you are giving Microsoft money :) | 07:54 |
| reisio | dance4x: the rest will vary | 07:54 |
| wilee-nilee | Anaxandridas, I would talk with reisio If it were me, that be good help. ;) | 07:54 |
| RobHaz | dance4x: DONT GIVE MS MONEY! | 07:54 |

| lissyx | anyone skilled about udisks ? I'm having an issue on my 13.04 laptop, old devices mounted by udisks are still listed in udisksctl status | 07:55 |
| dance4x | does this not count as ubuntu support? | 07:56 |
| lissyx | this makes the /media/ path going crazy sometimes | 07:56 |
| RobHaz | dance4x: Whats up? | 07:56 |
| histo | lissyx: what do you mean going crazy? | 07:57 |
| lissyx | histo, bad path being computed | 07:57 |
| dance4x | i am trying to figure out the differences between getting a desktop that is made for ubuntu or getting one that comes with windows and putting ubuntu on it | 07:57 |
| dance4x | like what are the problems associated with not getting a desktop from system76 or thinkpenguin, etc. | 07:57 |
| dance4x | is it worth it to pay extra for a desktop from a linux company i guess is my question | 07:58 |
| aeon-ltd | dance4x: which costs less? then is the gpu/wifi/eth/audio supported in linux? | 07:58 |
| lissyx | histo, yesterday night I plugged a drive with label 'Sauvegardes' as sdb1, now I'm plugging another with another label (it's detected as sdb1 too, since I've removed the other one), and I'm getting udisksctl mounting it to /media/alex/Sauvegardes/ instead of /media/alex/FirefoxOS/ | 07:58 |
| anonymouschen | Hey there | 07:59 |
| reisio | dance4x: excluding the ms tax you don't care about, and the price which you do, the only difference would be whether all the hardware is supported by GNU/Linux | 07:59 |
| reisio | dance4x: with a system76 box that is rather a given | 07:59 |
| anonymouschen | I'm having this problem with unity | 07:59 |
| reisio | dance4x: with an asus box it's very likely, but not a certainty | 07:59 |
| reisio | dance4x: a little research on your part could confirm it one way or the other, however | 07:59 |
| anonymouschen | where amazon adds keeps displaying | 07:59 |
| anonymouschen | after disabling from privacy settings | 07:59 |
| dance4x | reisio so i just need to make sure that all the hardware is compatible? | 07:59 |
| reisio | anonymouschen: you probably need to uninstall the package | 07:59 |
| reisio | anonymouschen: something like this: http://lifehacker.com/5953180/how-to-remove-amazon-ads-from-ubuntu-1210 | 08:00 |
| anonymouschen | after disabling like 10 sec later ubuntu crashed and everything is reinable | 08:00 |
| histo | lissyx: are you sure the label is different on the new one? | 08:00 |
| reisio | dance4x: yup | 08:00 |
| dance4x | reisio like processor, graphics card, etc. | 08:00 |
| lissyx | histo, and a 'udisksctl status' shows my old devices, and those are also listed in the "Devices" section of nautilus | 08:00 |
| wilee-nilee | anonymouschen, Did you clear recent items? | 08:00 |
| reisio | dance4x: webcam, wireless | 08:00 |
| anonymouschen | Yeah | 08:00 |
| reisio | dance4x: if it has something like nvidia optimus, think about that | 08:00 |
| anonymouschen | Well | 08:00 |
| lissyx | histo, yes. | 08:00 |
| reisio | etc., etc. | 08:00 |
| anonymouschen | that's not the cause | 08:00 |

| reisio | dance4x: no not at all | 08:02 |
| reisio | dance4x: but if you want to know what you're getting into, that's what to look into | 08:02 |
| aeon-ltd | dance4x: it's the hybrid intel/nvidia switching in laptops you have to watch for | 08:03 |
| guddu | anyone help me?? | 08:03 |
| anonymouschen | Out of curiousity does anyone know the progress of reinstalling the ubuntu forums | 08:03 |
| dance4x | reisio aeon-ltd i am looking at the certified hardware list on the ubuntu website, but is there another site where it has specific parts? | 08:03 |
| anonymouschen | as in is it close to be back up or what | 08:03 |
| reisio | anonymouschen: AFAICT anyone that knows has been instructed to not say :) | 08:03 |
| wilee-nilee | guddu, Not with a statement of the problem to the channel. | 08:03 |

| reisio | anonymouschen: google et al. probably still have cached copies, though, if you just want to search it | 08:04 |
| guddu | i'm new here | 08:04 |
| histo | lissyx: I would check gnome-disks and see what the disk is being seen as | 08:04 |
| lissyx | histo, gnome-disks displays the same | 08:04 |
| guddu | and i dont know how to use it, i want to start VPN | 08:04 |
| lissyx | histo, and displays my old unplugged drive ... | 08:04 |
| lissyx | histo, http://i.imgur.com/NF6jPfj.png look the Devices (« Périphériques ») section | 08:05 |
| lissyx | histo, and browsing dbus shows similar behavior | 08:06 |
| aeon-ltd | dance4x: i don't know of any, but since pc spec lists are easy to find you can google for them plus terms like ubuntu/linux + problems/not working/hdmi not working etc | 08:06 |
| lissyx | histo, restating udisksd clears the list | 08:07 |
| histo | lissyx: does it correct the read after restarting udisks? | 08:07 |
| lissyx | histo, let me check | 08:07 |
| dance4x | aeon-ltd k. thank you for the help. i'll start googling around. | 08:07 |
| lissyx | histo, seems so | 08:08 |
| lissyx | histo, what bothers me the most is that each time I do udisksctl mount --block-device /dev/... then udisksctl unmount --block-device /dev/... it populates the device list | 08:08 |

| RayWizard|3 | i have high xorg cpu load when playing flash, however it is not always the case, is there a way to restart xorg without killing graphic apllications curently running? | 08:45 |
| histo | RayWizard|3: no | 08:45 |
| reisio | RayWizard|3: probably can kill flash, though | 08:46 |
| reisio | which is more sensible anyways | 08:46 |
| histo | RayWizard|3: what video card? | 08:46 |
| RayWizard|3 | integrated hd3000, it works well usualy | 08:46 |

| lord4163 | Hello | 08:49 |
| lord4163 | Why do I have a different keyboard layout in TTY? :( | 08:50 |
| g105b | sudo apt-get --purge remove gnome-terminal < That has got back directory tab-completion, but I'm still missing completion when using apt-get or more importantly, git (to complete branch names) | 08:50 |
| histo | !keyboard | lord4163 | 08:50 |
| ubottu | lord4163: To switch your keyboard layout on GNOME: System -> Preferences -> Keyboard | KDE: System Settings -> Regional & Language -> Keyboard Layout | XFCE: Settings -> Settings Manager -> Keyboard, Layout | 08:50 |
| histo | jesus no cli | 08:50 |
| lord4163 | histo: :P | 08:50 |

| histo | RayWizard|3: lspci -k | grep -i vga | 08:53 |
| histo | lord4163: change it in GUI if it works there | 08:53 |

| jony_easyrider | histo, ty for the link | 09:04 |
| histo | lord4163: boot the system would be easiest for you. | 09:04 |
| lord4163 | histo: I did | 09:04 |
| tanto_ | Help me, I want to install NSClient++ on ubuntu 12.04 | 09:05 |
| adam69 | llutz, wow reader.albasani.net pings good. No probs there. Maybe I should try their alternatives https etc ? | 09:05 |
| histo | lord4163: then you should be good or you can use the loadkeys layout to load one | 09:05 |
| llutz | adam69: perhaps you should try a more reliable service than albasani ... | 09:05 |
| lord4163 | histo: No it ain't working after reboot? | 09:05 |
| histo | lord4163: layout am | 09:06 |
| torke | hi | 09:06 |

| lord4163 | histo: English US international with dead keys | 09:07 |
| adam69 | llutz: went there after trouble with aoie. I'll get back to the albasani guy who gave me the access password, he may have a comment. Pan should work, right? | 09:07 |
| torke | connecting to an ubuntu X session via tightvnc is fine and my keyboard input is detected properly except Alt key. e.g. i can not write @ there. | 09:07 |
| llutz | adam69: i never used albasani myself, but i don#t see any reason why pan should fail if albasani offers standard nntp-service | 09:08 |
| torke | connecting another virtual desktop via vnc works, but i still fail doing the same with the ubuntu os. | 09:08 |
| lord4163 | histo: sudo loadkeys us did work but I don't have the dead keys now :P | 09:08 |

| adam69 | llutz: OK, thanks. One OT question, if I may; what's a good IRC chat that I can learn up on, X-chat?. Seems I need beep notification of my moniker, and some focussing commands. Or perhaps I just read up on the / commands to enjoy this more? Thanks. | 09:10 |
| hewhomust | !xchat | 09:11 |

| babybum | hola | 09:11 |
| henkpoley | Is it even possible anymore to enter a package name in Launchpad and then report a bug for that package? | 09:11 |
| dr_willis | xchat has help site and docs | 09:11 |
| hewhomust | adam, xchat is nice and easy | 09:11 |

| histo | !bug | henkpoley | 09:13 |
| ubottu | henkpoley: If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug using the command « ubuntu-bug <package> » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs. | 09:13 |
| ikonia | henkpoley: on the bug reporting wiki page, it does detail it | 09:13 |
| adam69 | OK. X-chat with its blog info maybe is what I need. X-chat not intuitive for adding IRC servers. But its mainly 'beep alert on monicker appearance' I think I need. Also a few for / commands under my fingers. Thanks guys. | 09:13 |
| ikonia | henkpoley: it's not obvious, but if you read it fully, it's in there | 09:13 |

| ikonia | henkpoley: does what work over ssh ? | 09:14 |

| dr_willis | find a native client? | 09:15 |
| henkpoley | ActionParsnip: anyways, I found a "report a bug" link by clicking around on the breadcrumbs for the package I needed in Launchpad | 09:15 |
| histo | lord4163: can't check right now for you perhaps someone else can help. | 09:15 |
| henkpoley | ActionParsnip: apparently you can't report for a package, but only for a team or something | 09:15 |
| reisio | sasha|: without wine/vms means a native client | 09:15 |
| histo | sasha|: ask the go to meeting people | 09:15 |
| reisio | sasha|: either there is such a thing or there isn't | 09:15 |
| ikonia | henkpoley: there is an option to select a package | 09:15 |
| histo | lord4163: perhaps sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup will help you | 09:16 |
| sasha| | darn | 09:16 |
| sasha| | well someone's going to range on me… not understanding the fact that they physically cannot have the sort of performance they're already getting with ubuntu, on a 7 year old computer with 2gb of RAM and heavily outdated hardware | 09:18 |
| ActionParsnip | henkpoley: is the package from a PPA per chance? | 09:18 |
| ActionParsnip | sasha|: tried Xubuntu? | 09:18 |
| hurdman | hello folks, i have got a question : will the futur ubuntu edge phone be open hardware ? | 09:18 |
| ActionParsnip | sasha|: what video chip are you using? | 09:18 |
| reisio | hurdman: given that I've not heard anything about it being so, I doubt it | 09:19 |
| henkpoley | ActionParsnip: linux-generic-lts-raring 3.8.0.26.25 | 09:19 |
| ActionParsnip | hurdman: i'd ask in #ubuntu-touch | 09:19 |
| ActionParsnip | !info linux-generic-lts-raring | 09:19 |
| ubottu | Package linux-generic-lts-raring does not exist in raring | 09:19 |
| reisio | hurdman: in fact they said they weren't going into the phone making business, just the os making business | 09:19 |
| dr_willis | hurdman: ive seen verynlittle harfdware thats totally open | 09:19 |
| henkpoley | ActionParsnip: anyways I found the report link, it's just too hidden | 09:19 |
| ActionParsnip | henkpoley: oh, very | 09:19 |
| hurdman | dr_willis: the design of course, probably not the SoC :) | 09:19 |
| henkpoley | ActionParsnip As, in, not on any page where you want it to be | 09:19 |
| histo | sasha|: any reason they depend upon go to meeting as opposed to other products that are available? | 09:20 |
| hurdman | reisio: but they wants to build their phone | 09:20 |
| sasha| | ActionParsnip: no, ubuntu runs ok, but it would run better if there weren't 100 winnows open | 09:20 |
| ikonia | sasha|: then don't open 100 windows ? | 09:20 |
| ikonia | sasha|: you have to work within the limitations of your resources | 09:20 |
| reisio | hurdman: ;p | 09:20 |
| ActionParsnip | sasha|: then you will need more RAM to run more apps | 09:20 |
| sasha| | he wants to have Windows 7, which we have already tried… and it certainly won't handle no where near as much | 09:20 |
| ikonia | sasha|: sounds like it meets the windows 7 requirements fine | 09:21 |
| hurdman | if the soft is open and the hardware too, it should be the best news ever :D | 09:21 |
| ActionParsnip | sasha|: I'm not seeing a question here, just statements.... | 09:21 |
| hewhomust | perhaps a lighter desktop environment would do nicely but yeah it should be able to run windows 7 alright | 09:21 |
| sasha| | that's because you guys are talking to much and not letting me write something :P | 09:21 |

| klevin | i have the basic skills in linux | 09:25 |
| MrQuist | What are you all saying weird nerdy stuff | 09:25 |
| ikonia | klevin: your trying to do virtualization within virtualization ? | 09:25 |
| klevin | yes | 09:25 |
| MrQuist | good luck | 09:25 |
| reisio | klevin: that doesn't usually workout so well | 09:25 |
| histo | klevin: why on earth? | 09:25 |
| ikonia | reisio: vmware supports 4 nested deep | 09:25 |
| dr_willis | dosbox in vbox | 09:25 |
| dr_willis | :-) | 09:25 |
| MrQuist | lol yeah messing around and stuff would work | 09:25 |
| ikonia | klevin: I suggest you talk to vmware about this as it has very specific support needs to do this | 09:25 |
| henkpoley | klevin: you are probably looking for the hypervisor stuff, not 'vmware server' | 09:26 |
| reisio | ikonia: I'm sure it works out well, too | 09:26 |
| ikonia | MrQuist: can you please stop with the pointless comments | 09:26 |
| ikonia | reisio: it actually does if you tick the boxes vmware require | 09:26 |
| klevin | do you provide me a link please? | 09:26 |
| ikonia | klevin: you'll need to talk to vmware about this | 09:26 |
| MrQuist | ikonia, ubuntu is a great philosophy, but i don't know why you're all talking about computer | 09:26 |
| arash | where does bluetooth received files , save in ? | 09:26 |
| ikonia | klevin: try the #vmware channel | 09:26 |
| klevin | yes but all teste i will make will be on vmware | 09:26 |
| reisio | ikonia: sure it does | 09:26 |
| henkpoley | klevin: or #Xen | 09:27 |
| ikonia | MrQuist: no-one is talking about "computer" - this channel is for ubuntu support | 09:27 |
| klevin | i think i am at the right one, need t tutorials how to make the virtualization | 09:27 |
| MrQuist | yes | 09:27 |
| MrQuist | i want to love my neighbours | 09:27 |
| klevin | in ubuntu for the stuff needed i will find myself :) | 09:27 |
| ikonia | klevin: no - you need to use VMWARE to do this | 09:27 |
| klevin | ok, suppose i installed | 09:27 |
| arash | !bluetooth | 09:27 |
| ubottu | For instructions on how to set up bluetooth, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup | 09:27 |
| klevin | first ubuntu | 09:27 |
| ikonia | klevin: hence why you need to talk to vmware to get the support requirements for nested virtualization | 09:27 |
| klevin | how to make another one inside the first server | 09:27 |
| earman | hello | 09:27 |
| reisio | hi | 09:27 |
| histo | klevin: why do you want to do this? | 09:28 |
| dr_willis | i wonder if vmware has docs at its homepage | 09:28 |
| klevin | for test | 09:28 |
| histo | dr_willis: sure it does | 09:28 |
| histo | I bet there is also #vmware | 09:28 |
| klevin | i want to lean more about the linux | 09:28 |
| klevin | i have basic skills | 09:28 |
| histo | klevin: then create a linux vm | 09:28 |
| klevin | guys vmware is just for the area of the server | 09:29 |
| histo | klevin: what doest hat have to do with nested vm | 09:29 |
| klevin | inside vmware | 09:29 |
| klevin | a single virtual machine | 09:29 |
| klevin | will be 2 server | 09:29 |
| reisio | there's literally nothing you're doing that makes sense :) | 09:29 |
| histo | klevin: whats you native language? | 09:29 |
| klevin | one directly with vmware and the other one with virtual instide the first one | 09:29 |
| dr_willis | should be trivial to install vmware or vbox and install ubuntu in the vm | 09:29 |
| klevin | albanian | 09:29 |
| dr_willis | why you need a vm in the vm is not clear | 09:30 |
| klevin | if needed i can make also in a local machine | 09:30 |
| klevin | guys, suppose you have a server | 09:30 |
| dr_willis | run 2 vms.. | 09:30 |
| klevin | and instead buying another one, you just create a virtual one at the single server | 09:30 |
| klevin | so you have 2 servers in one machine? | 09:30 |
| klevin | get it? | 09:30 |
| histo | !al | klevin | 09:31 |
| klevin | sorry? | 09:31 |
| dr_willis | klevin: thats rather trivial to do | 09:31 |
| dr_willis | you could run a dozen vm instances on a ubuntu server | 09:31 |
| dr_willis | each bring a server | 09:32 |
| klevin | ok how to do this? this is my question? | 09:32 |
| klevin | i know how to install the first one, the physic one, what about the virtual one | 09:32 |
| klevin | what are the steps? | 09:32 |
| dr_willis | id use vbox. and start by reading thr vbox manual at its homepage | 09:32 |
| arash | where is bluetooth received files ? | 09:33 |
| dr_willis | install ubuntu.. install vbox.. install os in vbox | 09:33 |
| Anaxandridas | I keep getting a popup called "Depconf on Laptop" which soon disappears. It's just a blank box, with that at the top. It pops up, then closes. What is it, and how do I make it stop? | 09:34 |
| alex_ | трв | 09:34 |
| histo | Anaxandridas: a notification for depconf probably | 09:35 |
| Anaxandridas | histo, while I do appreciate the wit and humour, do you have an actual answer? | 09:35 |
| klevin | any idea ? | 09:36 |
| dr_willis | klevin: on what exactly? | 09:37 |
| klevin | on virtualization, on a single physic server to put 2 servers | 09:37 |
| dr_willis | klevin: run 2 vm instances. | 09:38 |
| dr_willis | or give details as to exactly what you are needing | 09:38 |

| jrib | dan2003: try #ubuntu-packaging | 09:50 |
| cfhowlett | br_shadow, and we're not going to support mint here on THIS channel so ... feel free to use ubuntu. Thank you. | 09:50 |
| iceroot | br_shadow: and its not the same | 09:50 |
| ikonia | dan2003: the packaging format is the same if it needs compiling or not, | 09:51 |
| dan2003 | jrib, thanks | 09:51 |
| br_shadow | iceroot im not asking you to help me as an ubuntu supporter, im asking you to help me as a linux supporter | 09:51 |
| iceroot | br_shadow: are you a troll? | 09:51 |
| iceroot | br_shadow: i told you 3 times we dont support mint here | 09:51 |
| cfhowlett | br_shadow, not supported here. period point blank. | 09:51 |
| ikonia | br_shadow: final statement - no mint support here, please don't ask again | 09:51 |
| iceroot | br_shadow: so now stop that useless stuff here | 09:51 |
| br_shadow | im not a troll i just need help that no one seems to care and give me for weeks ! | 09:51 |
| jrib | br_shadow: your choices are: 1) ask mint support channel 2) install ubuntu and replicate your issue, then ask here for help or 3) go to windows | 09:51 |
| iceroot | br_shadow: go to the mint channel!! | 09:51 |
| cfhowlett | br_shadow, install ubuntu. we'll help with that. | 09:51 |
| cfhowlett | br_shadow, sadly, the rules of this channel apply to us all .. .including you. and me. | 09:52 |

| Michiel1 | hey does anyone know how to recover damaged partition ? | 09:54 |
| ikonia | Michiel1: depends how/why it's damaged | 09:54 |
| Michiel1 | When I tried to install ArchLinux I accidently selected my ubuntu home folder | 09:54 |
| ikonia | Michiel1: ok, so it's not damaged, you've just formatted it | 09:55 |
| Michiel1 | when I tried to recover that via testdisk i think it destroyed my partition table | 09:55 |
| ikonia | ughh really | 09:55 |
| cfhowlett | michaelni, ow ow ow ow ow | 09:55 |
| iceroot | Michiel1: only your backup is able to fix that (maybe a backup of the superblocks is enough) | 09:55 |
| Michiel1 | when i then tried to repair that it succeeded it found my ubuntu, windows and stuff but i can't boot in windows anymore because it says it can't fiend windows | 09:55 |
| cfhowlett | Michiel1, probably wrote out your MBR. fixable. | 09:56 |
| Michiel1 | at least now i have my ubuntu back (not the home folder) | 09:56 |
| Michiel1 | but windows is f*cked (pardon my language) and i still haven't recovered the home folder | 09:57 |
| Anaxandridas | So... Remove Windows? | 09:57 |
| ikonia | Michiel1: if you need to pardon your language, don't use it please. | 09:57 |
| cfhowlett | michaelni, repair the windows boot with windows repair. then reinstall grub to get your ubuntu goodies | 09:57 |
| Michiel1 | yeah would be ideal if i hadn't had the upcoming exams and if my files weren't on windows | 09:57 |
| cfhowlett | Michiel1, that's why god invented dropbox | 09:58 |
| ikonia | Michiel1: cfhowlett's called out your best bet | 09:58 |
| Anaxandridas | Dropbox IS God. | 09:58 |
| Anaxandridas | If every single computer in my house, AND my phone were all to die tomorrow, I'd still be good :D | 09:59 |
| mJayk | Anaxandridas: clouds are good just dont rely on them to much | 09:59 |
| mJayk | :) | 09:59 |
| Michiel1 | the problem is it doesn't recognize my different partitions from live cd | 09:59 |
| ikonia | Michiel1: are you on the livecd now ? | 09:59 |
| Michiel1 | or from the ubuntu ( becaus i can boot just i don't get my home folder) | 10:00 |
| Michiel1 | so I can't copy all the files | 10:00 |
| ikonia | Michiel1: are you on the system now ? | 10:00 |
| Michiel1 | I'm currently on my other pc | 10:00 |
| ikonia | Michiel1: can you access the other system ? | 10:00 |
| Michiel1 | i can acces ubuntu root and that's basicly it | 10:00 |
| BoF | do you know where i can download shell script !?? | 10:00 |
| ikonia | Michiel1: ok, so please access the other system, do "sudo fdisk -l" and put the output in a pastebin, and provide us the URL | 10:01 |
| ikonia | BoF: which shell script do you want ? | 10:01 |
| Michiel1 | the output gives | 10:01 |
| ikonia | Michiel1: please use a pastebin | 10:01 |
| Michiel1 | sda1p1, sda1p2 | 10:01 |
| Michiel1 | ... | 10:01 |
| Michiel1 | only 3 | 10:01 |
| ikonia | Michiel1: and put the exact output in as I requested | 10:01 |
| Michiel1 | so sda1p1sda1p2sda1p3 | 10:01 |
| ikonia | ok, I'm done | 10:01 |
| BoF | any scripts, i m looking for a forum where i can see shell code for give me some ideas! | 10:02 |
| ikonia | if you can't follow instructions, no point helping | 10:02 |
| jrib | BoF: ideas for what? | 10:02 |
| Michiel1 | ok wait a minute i have to boot | 10:02 |
| ikonia | BoF: google shell scripting examples | 10:02 |
| * cfhowlett ... LOL. Where's the "Ain't no one got time to read all that!" lady? | 10:02 | |
| ikonia | Michiel1: dont do it for me - I'm not bothered now | 10:02 |
| BoF | ikonia: i try but no very util for me! | 10:03 |
| ikonia | http://www.freeos.com/guides/lsst/ch08.html | 10:03 |
| ikonia | first hit on google | 10:03 |
| jrib | !terminal | BoF | 10:04 |
| ubottu | BoF: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome), K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE), or Menu -> Accessories -> LXTerminal (LXDE). Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal | 10:04 |
| Michiel1 | ok sudo fdisk -l reports /dev/sda1 (start) 1 (end) A953525167 (blocks) 976762536 (ID) ee (system) GPT | 10:04 |
| ikonia | Michiel1: you seem clearly unable to follow instruction despite me asking then telling you to use a pastebin | 10:05 |
| Michiel1 | yeah but like i said this is a different pc | 10:05 |
| ikonia | Michiel1: yeah, and like I said, "use a pastebin" | 10:05 |
| ikonia | good luck | 10:05 |
| Michiel1 | the other one is broken i just can use the console so maybe if i can acces the chat via console | 10:06 |
| Michiel1 | :s | 10:06 |
| Michiel1 | or ok I will try to do it via livecd then i could probably paste it | 10:07 |
| ikonia | Michiel1: I'm not doing any more on this now | 10:07 |
| Michiel1 | ok thanks for the help :) | 10:08 |
| ikonia | no problem, good luck | 10:08 |
| Michiel1 | i'll guess i'l paste it anyways and hope someone else can help :p | 10:08 |
| ikonia | best idea | 10:09 |

| zeev_ | Hi, 1) is it possible to mount an external device (disk-on-key or an usb-hard-drive, etc.) only in Write mode, but NOT in Read mode? 2) If I do chmod a-x /mnt/media - will it be possible to write there but not read from there? | 10:52 |
| alfreddba | blazemore: thank u.. | 10:53 |
| jackstoner | zeev_: 1) it's not possible, how do you access (read) the fs. 2) the flag +x used on a folder makes it readable to whoever is assigned. Write flag is +w | 10:56 |
| teeceepee | how do I set an env variable in upstart | 10:56 |
| teeceepee | running as root ? | 10:56 |
| blazemore | zeev_: Perhaps there is a better solution for what you're trying to achieve? | 10:56 |
| blazemore | teeceepee: The recommended method is to write an env file in the pre-start stanza and then source it in the script stanza | 10:57 |
| blazemore | teeceepee: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12610335/how-to-set-environment-variable-in-pre-start-in-upstart-script | 10:57 |
| blazemore | It's a bit of a hack, but it does work | 10:57 |
| teeceepee | blazemore will that be in my upstart script ? | 10:58 |
| blazemore | teeceepee: In your pre-start script, you write your encironmental variables to a file in /tmp | 10:59 |
| blazemore | teeceepee: It's explained in detail in the link I gave you | 11:00 |
| teeceepee | I don't know what a pre-start script is | 11:00 |
| teeceepee | yeah I read it didn't understand | 11:00 |
| blazemore | teeceepee: What are you trying to do? Do you know what an upstart script is? | 11:00 |
| teeceepee | yeah I do | 11:00 |
| teeceepee | I am trying to run uwsgi using an upstart script | 11:00 |
| zeev_ | blazemore: I just want to prevent users from reading external stuff, while provide them with an option to dump their work on devices they attach - is there a way to do this? | 11:01 |
| teeceepee | blazemore this is my upstart file | 11:02 |
| teeceepee | http://pastebin.com/GdVK3T3N | 11:02 |
| blazemore | teeceepee: Right, and what do you need it to do that it isn't doing? | 11:04 |
| teeceepee | its not setting env CAMPAIGN_TYPE=general | 11:04 |
| ActionParsnip | teeceepee: could set it in /etc/environment | 11:05 |
| teeceepee | ActionParsnip really? I am running upstart with sudo | 11:06 |
| teeceepee | thanks let me try thus | 11:06 |
| teeceepee | this | 11:06 |
| inad922 | hello | 11:07 |
| inad922 | could someone tell me which package has the ec2-authorize command? | 11:07 |
| inad922 | or how can I find it out on ubuntu where a given file is | 11:08 |
| inad922 | I guess this has a /usr/(s)bin prefix | 11:08 |
| DJones | !find ec2-authorize | 11:09 |
| ubottu | File ec2-authorize found in ec2-api-tools | 11:09 |
| DJones | inad922: See ubottu's info | 11:09 |
| inad922 | thx | 11:09 |
| zeev_ | blazemore: I just want to prevent users from reading external stuff, while provide them with an option to dump their work on devices they attach - is there a way to do this? | 11:10 |
| inad922 | ah which repo has this package? | 11:10 |
| inad922 | I added the repo as suggested on this page | 11:10 |
| inad922 | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EC2StartersGuide | 11:10 |
| raub | When a laptop goes to sleep (you close lid), what should I expect to see in log file 9syslog)? | 11:11 |
| BoF | hi, a sh script for notify mail come in it's possible?? | 11:11 |
| inad922 | but still I don't see the package | 11:11 |
| ActionParsnip | BoF: what email client are you using? | 11:11 |
| BoF | thunderbird | 11:11 |
| DJones | inad922: It should be in multiverse according to http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=ec2-api&searchon=names&suite=raring§ion=all | 11:11 |
| ActionParsnip | BoF: doesn't it have an addon? | 11:11 |
| BoF | yes but i can't install it | 11:12 |
| raub | BoF: yes. Implementation may vary: is mail local or in a server (imap)? | 11:12 |
| inad922 | DJones, Eh, I enabled multiverse in sources.list | 11:12 |
| inad922 | shall I replace the universe stuff? | 11:12 |
| BoF | smtp | 11:12 |
| inad922 | or those are parallel? | 11:12 |
| ActionParsnip | BoF: libnotify-popups http://askubuntu.com/questions/33614/why-do-firefox-and-thunderbird-not-use-notify-osd | 11:12 |
| DJones | inad922: Are you on 13.04 (thats what the search gives) | 11:12 |
| raub | BoF: smtp is to *send* mail, not receive | 11:12 |
| BoF | ah yes sorry | 11:13 |
| ActionParsnip | BoF: what i sthe output of: cat /etc/issue | 11:13 |
| DJones | inad922: Looking in a bit more detail, it should be there for lucid, precise and quantal as well | 11:13 |
| BoF | its: Ubuntu 13.04 \n \l | 11:13 |
| inad922 | DJones, I'm on an Amazon virt server. uname -a gives no info on the ubuntu version | 11:13 |
| ikonia | inad922: that is incorect | 11:14 |
| raub | Also, BoF when you say you cannot install is it because of user rights or an issue in the box? | 11:14 |
| inad922 | ikonia, Well how should I find it out then?> | 11:14 |
| DJones | inad922: I've not looked at the amazon virt servers, so I wouldn't like to make any other suggestions, I'm just going off the default Ubuntu repo information | 11:14 |
| ActionParsnip | BoF: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NotifyOSD#thunderbird | 11:14 |
| ActionParsnip | BoF: http://askubuntu.com/questions/197844/how-to-disable-osd-notifications-for-specific-email-addresses | 11:15 |
| ikonia | inad922: find out what exactly ? | 11:15 |
| BoF | ActionParsnip: thx | 11:15 |
| jarco | When I try to save manual network connections it requires me to authenticate before I can do it. How can I do that? | 11:15 |
| BoF | raub: i can't instal package! | 11:15 |
| ikonia | jarco: what do you mean ? | 11:15 |
| inad922 | ikonia, Which version of ubuntu is running on the machine | 11:16 |
| inad922 | that's why I tried to use uname -a | 11:16 |
| xormor | inad922: /exec -o uname -a | 11:16 |
| ikonia | inad922: ok, so lsb_release -a, the contents of /etc/release, erifying from the kernel in uname -a, then contacting amazon to ask which version you have purchased | 11:16 |
| xormor | Linux laptoppi-HP-G62-Notebook-PC 3.8.0-26-generic #38-Ubuntu SMP Mon Jun 17 21:46:08 UTC 2013 i686 athlon i686 GNU/Linux | 11:16 |
| ActionParsnip | BoF: guess how I found those..... | 11:16 |
| raub | ActionParsnip: for some reason I thought he had no rights to install stuff in his account, hence I was going to suggest a python solution | 11:16 |
| jarco | ikonia, When I try to assign a fixed ip I cannot save because it requires me to be authenticated to make the connection available or all users. | 11:16 |
| ActionParsnip | raub: most users do :) | 11:17 |
| ikonia | jarco: where does it ask you to authenticate | 11:17 |
| BoF | ActionParsnip: with ur great google friend?! :) | 11:17 |
| ActionParsnip | BoF: well, that and duckduckgo | 11:17 |
| jarco | ikonia, when I hover the greyed out save button | 11:17 |
| inad922 | ikonia, /etc/release doesn't exist. I tried uname -a and it's an ec2 virtual server | 11:17 |
| ikonia | inad922: I know it's an ec2 virtual server, but the running kernel can normally tell you | 11:17 |
| ikonia | jarco: how are you launching it | 11:18 |
| jarco | ikonia, i use the small icon on the top right side of the screen and press edit connections | 11:18 |
| justaguy | Well this is a big channel | 11:18 |
| inad922 | ikonia, ow ok | 11:18 |
| === zipper_ is now known as urbanslug | ||
| inad922 | ikonia, missed the lsb_release part | 11:18 |
| inad922 | 12.04 | 11:18 |
| ikonia | jarco: there should be an "unlock" option | 11:19 |
| raub | When you put osmething up in a ppa, is it compiled/built for oyu or you must upload the packages yourself? | 11:19 |
| teeceepee | ActionParsnip doesn't work | 11:19 |
| jarco | ikonia, if there is one I really can't find it | 11:19 |
| ikonia | raub: you can put what you want up | 11:20 |
| raub | ikonia: so you mean it will build the package for me (using jenkins/whatnot)? | 11:20 |
| ikonia | raub: depends, but basically, yes | 11:21 |
| raub | Excellent! | 11:21 |
| ikonia | raub: assuming all your configs are sane/correct | 11:21 |
| raub | ikonia: point taken ;) | 11:23 |
| justaguy | Damn this irc is HUGE | 11:23 |
| ikonia | jarco: yeah, you said already | 11:23 |
| ikonia | jarco: just tested it on a 13.04 box - save button is not greyed out for my user | 11:24 |
| raub | If I do tune2fs -o discard /dev/vgtest/test, how can I verify if that took place? /proc/mounts does not seem to want to help | 11:25 |
| ikonia | raub: why would you think it didn't take place, | 11:25 |
| ikonia | raub: also be aware of limits of "discard" on logical volumes | 11:25 |
| raub | ikonia: because I did not see a message saying it was changed | 11:26 |
| ikonia | raub: are you expecting a message ? | 11:27 |
| raub | ikonia: care to elaborate? Is it bad to enable trim in a lvm? | 11:27 |
| MonkeyDust | raub not everything is confirmed by a message, like: cp isn't either | 11:27 |
| raub | ikonia: I kinda would like to know for sure ;) | 11:27 |
| ikonia | raub: no, there are just limits and it's also supposed to be part of the logical volume, not file system | 11:27 |

| raub | I am trying to make sure not only my SSD-based raid is aligned but I am also get as good performance I can | 11:28 |
| raub | right now the OS is a livecd, so I have a few limitations :) | 11:29 |
| ikonia | raub: it's worth having a few reads of things like this http://www.ocztechnologyforum.com/forum/showthread.php?82648-software-RAID-LVM-TRIM-support-on-Linux | 11:29 |
| ikonia | raub: it doesn't sound like you're really aware of the limitations/practices | 11:29 |
| raub | ikonia: thanks for the info. I have been reading https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Solid_State_Drives#Tips_for_Maximizing_SSD_Performance for the trim stuff and http://www.altechnative.net/2010/12/31/disk-and-file-system-optimisation/ for the alignment stuff | 11:32 |

| raub | ikonia: honestly I still do not feel I completely understand it | 11:33 |

| blazemore | ihre: it depends what metric you want to compare | 12:05 |
| blazemore | xpl0iter: just sudo apt-get install curl | 12:05 |

| xpl0iter | raub ^^ | 12:06 |
| jrib | xpl0iter: I have to leave, but this is usually because you've used unofficial repositories, or packages (usually not meant for your distro version) | 12:07 |
| xpl0iter | blazemore: It gives me this error: http://pastie.org/8177686 | 12:07 |

| xpl0iter | MonkeyDust: Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS \n \l | 12:08 |
| jrib | xpl0iter: if you want to find the cause, then you look at the output, pick something it couldn't install (like libcurl3) and then try to install that (sudo apt-get install libcurl3). You'll get a new error, with new things it can't install. Keep going, eventually you'll get to the root cause. Then you can « apt-cache policy PACKAGE » and you'll probably see that package is not coming from official | 12:10 |

| plague | looking at APC models just not sure what i should get | 12:21 |
| ikonia | raub: it's advised to use 1 partition for LVM - 1 partition that covers the whole disk | 12:21 |
| raub | plague: apcupsd (and others) can tell your computer that it is time to consider shutting down. Some computers can be configured in bios to reboot automatically when they get power | 12:22 |
| === dziegler_off is now known as dziegler | ||
| plague | raub, you mean any APC smart ups model should do the work? | 12:22 |

| ztane | *h264 | 13:00 |
| blazemore | ztane: from what perspective, you mean you want to embed h.264 video on a website? | 13:01 |
| blazemore | ztane: Or you want to use your browser as a video player for local media? | 13:01 |
| ztane | blazemore: yes, in <video>element | 13:01 |
| jarco | ikonia, is it maybe possible the problem is related to the fact that its a usb disk under /media/username and samba is not allowing other users to look in therE? | 13:01 |
| blazemore | ztane: "yes" to the first one or the second? | 13:02 |
| ztane | blazemore: fx22 supports it on windows if the codec is installed... I need it for some authoring | 13:02 |
| ztane | blazemore: embed | 13:02 |
| mn2010 | Chromium already plays MP4 with H.264, Firefox hasnt included support yet(except for in trunk), but you can use plugins to forward it to vlc_embed if you like | 13:02 |
| ztane | mn2010: does not play on ubuntu | 13:03 |
| ztane | mn2010: not on my computer | 13:03 |
| mn2010 | do you have chromium-codecs installed? | 13:04 |
| ztane | http://camendesign.com/code/video_for_everybody/test.html i tried downloading the mp4 video from there and using it in <video> tag, does not work... | 13:04 |
| ztane | mn2010: obviously not? | 13:04 |
| ztane | :D | 13:04 |
| mn2010 | chromium doesnt use system codecs, and h.264 in firefox-trunk isnt enabled(its coded, just not enabled... mozilla is being a pain about it, due to licensing) | 13:05 |
| ztane | mn2010: not enabled... but windows version 22 reenabled it afaik... | 13:06 |
| mn2010 | http://is.gd/63LaMi - will simply tell you what codecs are support | 13:07 |
| mn2010 | atleast what is being exposed. | 13:07 |
| mn2010 | its YT btw. | 13:07 |

| sirspazzolot | cfhowlett: sorry I'm tired ._. | 13:19 |
| cfhowlett | sirspazzolot, :) | 13:20 |
| \n | Hi, I have a problem. I downloaded Ubuntu 13.04 (64 bit) and used LiLi to create a bootable USB, but I get the error "Boot loader | /casper/vmlinuz: file not found" when booting it. | 13:20 |
| surio | varunendra, you there? | 13:20 |
| streulma | hello, what will say errors=remount-ro, will this act on boot? or while the system is running? | 13:20 |
| MonkeyDust | \n try unetbootin or start up disk creator instead | 13:21 |
| cfhowlett | \n, try unetbootin to create your media | 13:21 |
| ActionParsnip | \n: did you md5 test the ISO you downloaded? | 13:21 |
| \n | Yes | 13:21 |
| sirspazzolot | my current boot strategy is use the windows disc to overwrite the mbr and when I need to get back to linux I chroot in and reinstall grub :P this is less than optimal | 13:21 |
| surio | \n your usb is probably conked out | 13:21 |
| Ekushey | \n: http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ | 13:21 |
| \n | I'll try Unetbootin, thanks. | 13:21 |
| surio | LiLi is good with creation of 13.04 AFAIR | 13:22 |
| MonkeyDust | unetbootin is in the repos | 13:22 |
| Ekushey | I never heard of LiLi | 13:22 |
| surio | \n it's most likely your usb | 13:22 |
| blazemore | \n: I've never had a problem with LiLi, don't forget to follow its instructions and use windows' "Safely Remove" feature on your USB! | 13:22 |
| surio | Ekushey, it's quite jazzy ;) | 13:22 |
| sirspazzolot | MonkeyDust: it is, but with some images and sometimes the ones it downloads itself the drive fails to boot | 13:22 |
| dennisxz | surio | 13:22 |
| sirspazzolot | MonkeyDust: that is, the versions in the repo. getting it from the sourceforge has always fixed any problems I've had. no idea why there's a discrepency | 13:23 |
| MonkeyDust | sirspazzolot anywayz, i use multisystem | 13:23 |
| dennisxz | shut UP! surio | 13:23 |
| varunendra | surio, yup | 13:23 |
| surio | dennisxz, yes? | 13:23 |
| dennisxz | no | 13:23 |
| dennisxz | sorry | 13:23 |
| dennisxz | sorry surio | 13:23 |
| Ekushey | surio: ah now i know what it is, they probably changed their name... the logo looks familiar | 13:23 |
| surio | np, false alarm :) | 13:23 |
| sirspazzolot | so anyway, any problems with this grub entry? http://bpaste.net/show/YLQZo9uXPgWilSCBBCRo/ is grub supposed to aim at the large windows 8 partition or the small system one? | 13:23 |
| surio | varunendra, the wifi drops and auto connects time to time... | 13:24 |
| \n | Huh, /casper/vmlinuz.efi exists but /casper/vmlinuz doesn't. I don't have EFI. | 13:24 |
| surio | dennisxz, who did you mistake me for? | 13:24 |
| varunendra | surio, the "wl" old version ?? | 13:24 |
| surio | yu | 13:24 |
| surio | yus | 13:24 |
| surio | I have half a mind to switch to 13.04 | 13:24 |
| Ekushey | \n: why not try to unetbootin and get back if you face the same problem? | 13:25 |
| surio | since this is a brand new install anyway, and make my bed with 14.04 LTS | 13:25 |
| Ekushey | *try with | 13:25 |
| \n | I'll try | 13:25 |
| ActionParsnip | surio: are you sharing a wifi channel with a lot of networks? | 13:25 |
| mn2010 | Windows 8 - Secure boot and grub... not good bed fellow. | 13:25 |
| ActionParsnip | surio: have you disabled ipv6 (I assume you don't use it) | 13:25 |
| surio | ActionParsnip, good Q. but no. Just mine, and occasionally my smart phones | 13:25 |
| varunendra | surio, you may try it in Live session. If it works better (with the native brcmsmac), you can either upgrade, or just use its kernel in 12.04. | 13:25 |
| ActionParsnip | surio: have yo utried disabling N speed in the wifi using module options? | 13:25 |
| surio | ActionParsnip, disabled :) | 13:26 |
| sirspazzolot | \n: my computer is really confusing me, I dno't have EFI but so many things seem to think I do. and they work properly despite not knowing I'm on BIOS/MBR | 13:26 |
| surio | ActionParsnip, what's that? | 13:26 |
| ActionParsnip | surio: if you run: sudo iwlist scan | grep -i chann do you see many networks on the same channel | 13:26 |
| ActionParsnip | surio: what wifi drive module are you using? | 13:26 |
| varunendra | surio, if I remember correctly, you disabled the security? (was WPA with TKIP)?? | 13:27 |
| surio | wl (Broadcom 4313 is my flipping chip) | 13:27 |
| chunkyhead | does anyone here use iopus imacros on firefox need some help. or can u point me to another channel? | 13:27 |
| surio | varunendra, it is WEP with TKIP still | 13:27 |
| blazemore | chunkyhead: #firefox | 13:27 |
| ActionParsnip | surio: http://askubuntu.com/questions/110584/bcm4313-wireless-card-keeps-disconnecting | 13:28 |
| varunendra | surio, and channel 11 perhaps.... anyway, the WEP - TKIP may be a factor adding to the problem whatever it is. | 13:28 |
| surio | it is on channel 11 | 13:28 |
| chunkyhead | thanks | 13:29 |
| surio | ActionParsnip, http://paste.ubuntu.com/5914841/ | 13:29 |
| ActionParsnip | surio: worth a shot http://askubuntu.com/questions/110584/bcm4313-wireless-card-keeps-disconnecting | 13:29 |
| ActionParsnip | surio: ok its not a busy channel then | 13:30 |
| ActionParsnip | surio: tried setting the router to g speed, to test | 13:30 |
| surio | I run other distros off USB | 13:30 |
| surio | and they don't give issues | 13:30 |
| surio | So, the router setup is okay | 13:30 |
| surio | And the smartphones connect too | 13:30 |
| surio | And remain connected.... :) | 13:31 |
| surio | This is dual boot machine, so Win7 is also np | 13:31 |
| surio | I am really thinking of moving to 13.04 | 13:31 |
| surio | this is a new install of 12.04.2 (last night) | 13:31 |
| sirspazzolot | surio: with the exception of the unity switch imo every ubuntu is worth upgrading to from the last | 13:32 |
| === jimB_ is now known as pitchfork | ||
| surio | hehe sirspazzolot | 13:32 |
| shivendra | hello everyone | 13:33 |
| lancien | hi | 13:33 |
| surio | you two related ? :) | 13:33 |
| sirspazzolot | but it's not so much that I detest unity now, more that I don't feel very comfortable using most mouse interfaces anymore | 13:33 |
| surio | varunendra, you two related ? :) | 13:33 |

| shivendra | i want to create a bootable linux installation but also want that sotwares i install onto that must remain preserved. how can i ? :( | 13:34 |
| auronandace | !usb | shivendra | 13:34 |
| ubottu | shivendra: For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent | 13:34 |
| shivendra | currently i'm on ubuntu | 13:34 |
| varunendra | surio, you can use 13.04's kernel in 12.04 if you wish, by installing "linux-image-generic-raring" package.. | 13:34 |
| surio | aha | 13:34 |
| varunendra | surio, me and ActionParsnip ?? | 13:34 |
| shivendra | auronandace, yers sir | 13:35 |
| surio | you and shivendr.... | 13:35 |
| surio | the names looked familiar :) | 13:35 |
| varunendra | haha... , maybe by citizenship... ;) | 13:35 |
| surio | ahh | 13:35 |
| surio | okay, in a sense, you'd rather I stick with 12.04, and try kernel updates only | 13:36 |
| shivendra | varunendra, have you ever been in Satna | 13:36 |
| varunendra | surio, nope | 13:36 |
| surio | shivendra, have you looked at knoppix ? | 13:36 |
| surio | eh? | 13:37 |
| surio | varunendra, ?? | 13:37 |
| varunendra | surio, sorry, I meant shivendra ^^ :P | 13:37 |
| surio | aha | 13:37 |
| kc4lzn | mumpitze1: second, would you like for me to share with you what I did to fix my problem from yesterday? | 13:37 |
| surio | so my Q, varunendra ? | 13:37 |
| varunendra | anyway.... surio can you run this script ? : https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/qjc87hzk1z5x6z0/wireless_script -- it will create a detailed summary of your wireless setup. | 13:37 |
| varunendra | shivendra, I used knoppix long ago. Currently I sometimes use Slax which is based on Konppix. | 13:38 |
| varunendra | shivendra, oops, the tab error, I meant surio ^^, I used knoppix long ago. Currently I sometimes use Slax which is based on Konppix. | 13:38 |
| auronandace | varunendra: slax is based on slackware | 13:39 |
| varunendra | auronandace, I think they have some variants.. | 13:39 |
| doomlord | desktop navigation, i have an itch, i would like the same hotkey to trigger either 'expo' or 'scale'. it would be ok to just toggle. better still, picking one or the other based on context. (if no windows are hidden on this desktop, show desktops. else show either desktops or scale toggled vs the last invocation) | 13:39 |
| Guest70249 | how do i use huewei data modem with ubuntu | 13:39 |
| Guest70249 | ne help | 13:39 |
| Guest70249 | plz | 13:39 |
| Guest70249 | ubuntu versuon 12.04 | 13:40 |
| Guest70249 | hueweu e153u-1 | 13:40 |
| varunendra | Guest70249, it should be natively supported by the kernel driver "option". If not.. you can force bind that driver.. but the link to do so was from the forums which is down :( | 13:41 |
| Guest70249 | whats kernal driver option @ varunendra | 13:42 |
| Guest70249 | sry new to ub untu | 13:42 |
| Guest70249 | do u mean automatically | 13:43 |
| varunendra | Guest70249, "option" is the name of the driver that handles these devices. Anyway please show us the output of "lsusb | grep -i huewei" | 13:44 |
| Stolas | Hello Ubuntu People | 13:44 |
| surio | Slax is based on Slackware, Shivendra, and I think that actually fits your requirements you stated above | 13:44 |
| zhaotongxue | how I can use my own keyboard? | 13:44 |
| cfhowlett | Stolas, greetings | 13:44 |
| Guest70249 | wait will do that | 13:45 |
| zhaotongxue | Like click ctrl+alt+t show terminal | 13:45 |
| zhaotongxue | ? | 13:45 |
| cfhowlett | zhaotongxue, keybindings you mean. see your settings | 13:45 |
| zhaotongxue | what's mean? | 13:45 |
| zhaotongxue | this is xubuntu | 13:45 |
| shivendra | surio, thanx but i've already downloaded mint 15 | 13:45 |
| zhaotongxue | in ubuntu,I know where | 13:45 |
| zhaotongxue | but i don't know in xubuntu | 13:45 |

| zhaotongxue | In my other computer ,I use ubuntu | 13:47 |
| \n | I used Unetbootin, now I get "Failed to load COM32 file menu.c32". | 13:47 |
| zhaotongxue | I will sleep | 13:48 |
| surio | \n check md5 of your iso | 13:48 |
| zhaotongxue | Buy | 13:48 |
| zhaotongxue | see you then? | 13:48 |
| blazemore | \n: if i were you I'd use Windows to check the drive for errors | 13:48 |
| zhaotongxue | may be | 13:48 |
| \n | surio, I did, it's correct | 13:48 |
| surio | zhaotongxue, bye bye | 13:48 |
| \n | blazemore, ok | 13:48 |
| zhaotongxue | byby | 13:48 |
| surio | \n in that case, it is definitely your usb | 13:48 |
| surio | varunendra, this script is great! | 13:49 |
| Sc0tty- | surio: what does your script do if you don't mind me asking? | 13:49 |
| varunendra | surio, not my work.. :) | 13:49 |
| surio | Sc0tty-, https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/qjc87hzk1z5x6z0/wireless_script | 13:50 |
| surio | Sc0tty-, "gathers the infos necessary for troubleshooting a wireless | 13:50 |

| wilee-nilee | \n, Have you checked the sum of the ISO? | 13:50 |
| surio | wilee-nilee, he did | 13:50 |
| surio | varunendra, http://paste.opensuse.org/5105993 | 13:50 |
| tom_o | hellow | 13:51 |
| varunendra | Sc0tty-, it creates a summary of wireless setup to help troubleshooting issues : https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/qjc87hzk1z5x6z0/wireless_script | 13:51 |
| surio | ^^ output of the script | 13:51 |
| tom_o | im still at my problem since yesterday | 13:51 |
| wilee-nilee | tom_o, Which is? | 13:52 |
| tom_o | start garena plus using wine and it says fatal error! folder acces denied, try to run as administrator | 13:52 |
| \n | CHKDSK found no errors. | 13:52 |
| wilee-nilee | tom_o, http://forum.winehq.org/viewtopic.php?t=15022 | 13:53 |
| mn2010 | tom_o: change permissions | 13:53 |
| wawrek | hey | 13:53 |
| tom_o | how to | 13:54 |
| tom_o | ? | 13:54 |
| varunendra | surio, that pastebin is terribly slow... :( | 13:54 |
| varunendra | surio, I'm on a snail pace gprs connection... but c'mon, it's just a pastebin :( | 13:55 |
| Sc0tty- | surio: nice, I guess you work as a network engineer or the sorts? | 13:55 |
| varunendra | ok, finally opened.. | 13:55 |
| wilee-nilee | tom_o, YOU been to #winehq | 13:55 |
| RxDx | please, I have a computer running HostAPD... How can I see whom is connected on my AccessPoint (AP)? I think theres a file that lists the clients.. | 13:55 |
| varunendra | Sc0tty-, the authors of that script are mentioned on the script :) | 13:55 |
| tom_o | im joined the channel | 13:56 |
| tom_o | but no ones there | 13:56 |
| Hyperbyte | I am having the most interesting issue today on Ubuntu 12.04.2 with Gnome classic desktop. This is an LTSP server, with lots of people logged in. After login, everything on the desktop works fine. Firefox auto starts, which is very usable, calendar applet works.... but as soon as someone clicks the Gnome menu, the whole user session completely locks up | 13:57 |
| varunendra | surio, I think we used the older version of "wl" driver ?? It is showing brcmsmac ???? | 13:57 |
| Sc0tty- | no I never ment you wrote the script, just assumed that would be the reason that you are using it. | 13:57 |
| bobz_zg | Hi | 13:57 |
| wilee-nilee | tom_o, 203 user but things can be slow on channels with less people and a smaller overall app application rather than a OS. Just an option is all. | 13:57 |
| Hyperbyte | Does anyone have any ideas on how to remedy this? | 13:58 |
| wilee-nilee | tom_o, YOu look at the wine link I sent you? | 13:58 |
| tom_o | yes | 13:58 |
| wilee-nilee | cool | 13:58 |
| vlt | Hyperbyte: Does this happen also in a vncserver session? | 13:58 |
| surio | Sc0tty-, I am using it to fix my own problems, although there is a definite use case for n/w debugging as you mentioned | 13:58 |
| tom_o | i already read it but resolution about administrator | 13:58 |
| bobz_zg | I'm having trouble with permissions. I have user in group 33, but when I upload files via ftp, wordpress doesnt have permissions to r/w files | 13:58 |
| wilee-nilee | tom_o, Personally I don't bother with wine I just dualboot. | 13:58 |
| surio | varunendra, is it on brcmsmac ?? | 13:58 |
| Hyperbyte | vlt, not sure... vncserver isn't running. I could try nx, there's an nxserver on there. | 13:58 |
| bobz_zg | what should i do | 13:58 |
| wawrek | did anyone manage to install emacs24 on ubutnu? in my case it fails when I try to run ecb. | 13:58 |
| tom_o | ho to join channel from here ? | 13:59 |
| surio | damn! yes, I see lsmod now varunendra | 13:59 |
| vlt | Hyperbyte: Do the clients connect via X or NX? | 13:59 |
| varunendra | surio, did you remove the wl again? | 13:59 |
| wilee-nilee | tom_o /j "channel" | 13:59 |
| Hyperbyte | vlt, LTSP uses X11 forwarding. I have NX for working from home, but nobody is working form home today | 13:59 |
| surio | varunendra, not at all why would i? come on :P | 13:59 |
| varunendra | :P | 14:00 |
| surio | as such I am happy it works... less temperamental than morning, but still buggy... | 14:00 |
| vlt | Hyperbyte: If you could test in a “local” session on the server you could tell whether it’s the client’s X server hanging or something alreadyy on the server. | 14:00 |
| varunendra | surio, what does "dpkg -s bcmwl-kernel-source | grep -i version" show? | 14:00 |
| tom_o | nothings happen i type /j "winehq" | 14:00 |
| surio | Then there's the question of pinnnig the package | 14:00 |
| latenite | Hi folks, where are the de-latin1.map.gz keymap files located? I did find /usr/ -name "de-*.map.gz" with no result | 14:00 |
| wilee-nilee | tom_o, /j winehq | 14:01 |
| surio | varunendra, "Version: 5.100.82.38+bdcom-0ubuntu6" | 14:01 |
| Hyperbyte | vlt, right, good idea. | 14:01 |
| wilee-nilee | tom_o, er /j #winehq | 14:01 |
| surio | same as the morning, varunendra | 14:01 |
| wilee-nilee | forgot the # | 14:01 |
| vlt | Hyperbyte: Some programs tend to put massive load on the X server because they “think” it makes things easier. | 14:01 |
| Hyperbyte | vlt, interesting thing is that everything works great. I'm on one of the affected clients now... alt+f2 and alt+t to start programs go fine. | 14:02 |
| varunendra | surio, that's kinda weird, the very installation should have renamed the interface as "eth<something>" while it is currently "wlan0".. | 14:02 |
| vlt | Hyperbyte: They forget that in an LTSP environment the X server runs on the client. | 14:02 |
| vlt | Hyperbyte: Which might suffer from too less RAM or CPU7GPU power. | 14:02 |
| Hyperbyte | As long as I don't click the Ubuntu menu on top left everything is fine. :) | 14:02 |
| Hyperbyte | This is long running install though... problem creeped up today. Either way it's good to try a local session. | 14:02 |
| chadams42 | how can I add a user to have permissions to a folder, without modifying the current permissions I have there? | 14:03 |
| vlt | Hyperbyte: Did you update the chroot env? | 14:03 |
| Hyperbyte | vlt, nope. | 14:03 |
| Hyperbyte | Nor the master. Haven't touched this. | 14:03 |
| varunendra | surio, I think the udev rules may have something to do with this.. we can delete those lines regarding wlan0 in it, but that shouldn't have needed. | 14:03 |
| vlt | Hyperbyte: What do df and free say? | 14:03 |
| Hyperbyte | vlt, if I run ls -al /usr/share/applications on the server it also goes fine | 14:03 |
| chadams42 | I want group "developers" to have access to 3 folders, but user "rsvp" to only have access to one of those folders. | 14:04 |
| surio | varunendra, I am more and more convinced that 13 is the way to go, for now..... | 14:04 |
| Hyperbyte | vlt, well 'free' at up the entire 32 GB ram, but nothing swapped yet | 14:04 |
| varunendra | surio, for now you may try manually blacklisting brcmsmac, and adding "wl" to /etc/modules to make sure it gets loaded at boot time, not the brcmsmac.. | 14:04 |
| surio | And hopefully 14 LTS would be bright as sunshine | 14:04 |
| OerHeks | chadams42, if you do not want to edit the permissions, add te user to the same group as the current permissions | 14:04 |
| Hyperbyte | vlt, and df............. hangs? | 14:04 |
| vlt | Hyperbyte: The w/o caches line is the most interesting | 14:04 |
| Hyperbyte | Oh | 14:04 |
| varunendra | surio, yup... the sunshine ;) | 14:04 |
| vlt | Hyperbyte: Ha | 14:04 |
| Hyperbyte | vlt, I have it. | 14:05 |
| Hyperbyte | Stale NFS volume. | 14:05 |
| chadams42 | OerHeks: I don;t want the user to have access to the other two folders | 14:05 |
| nyuszika7h | why won't Ubuntu fit on a 700 MB CD? ;_; | 14:05 |
| === rmichnik_ is now known as rmichnik | ||
| vlt | Hyperbyte: It was a pleasure :-) | 14:05 |
| blazemore | chadams42: Look at Access Control Lists | 14:05 |
| Hyperbyte | Why on earth it would bog the system down like this though.... that's really bad. | 14:05 |
| nyuszika7h | I'm trying to write it to a CD-RW because apparently something is wrong with my USB stick | 14:05 |
| wilee-nilee | nyuszika7h, Look at the data size with a right click. | 14:05 |
| Hyperbyte | The NFS volume isn't even being used. | 14:05 |
| nyuszika7h | it's 785 MB | 14:05 |
| blazemore | nyuszika7h: The Ubuntu disk images no longer fit on a standard 700Mb CD, you need to use a DVD | 14:05 |
| vlt | Hyperbyte: Maybe the ubuntu menu uses it to generate icons. | 14:05 |
| nyuszika7h | I know... but I don't have one ._. | 14:06 |
| * nyuszika7h looks for the minimal ISO | 14:06 | |
| blazemore | nyuszika7h: But you should definitely try checking your USB drive with Windows' disk checker first | 14:06 |
| nyuszika7h | blazemore: I did | 14:06 |
| nyuszika7h | no errors | 14:06 |
| Hyperbyte | vlt, nope. it's an empty directory, which I mounted for some experiment. I've since restarted the experiment server without umounting (forgot) | 14:06 |
| wilee-nilee | nyuszika7h, right more than 700 MB and the allowed about 30 more MB usually allowed, it has been this way for awhile. | 14:06 |
| nyuszika7h | wait, I have another USB stick I could try | 14:06 |
| wilee-nilee | nyuszika7h, The minimal is now a netload. | 14:06 |
| Hyperbyte | vlt, umount -f /directory... fixed | 14:07 |
| nyuszika7h | you mean netboot? | 14:07 |
| wilee-nilee | nyuszika7h, No net load, it is about 30MB in size | 14:07 |
| nyuszika7h | oh | 14:07 |
| tom_o | no one talk at winehq channel haha | 14:07 |
| wilee-nilee | nyuszika7h, Good way to install though. | 14:07 |
| varunendra | surio, the PINing part is easy though. It's just a file with 3 lines in /etc/apt/preferences.d directory. The first line is package name, second one its version and 3rd one its priority (1001) | 14:07 |
| Hyperbyte | vlt, this is horribly kernel performance though... one unused stale NFS entry and the thing completely screws up. That's pretty bizarre. | 14:08 |
| wilee-nilee | nyuszika7h, Takes longer, however if you add a regular install time with the iso download about the same. | 14:08 |
| blazemore | tom_o: You just have to ask your question and *wait* for a reply, do not leave the channel | 14:08 |
| wilee-nilee | nyuszika7h, NIce thing is the install is updated. | 14:09 |
| nyuszika7h | ah | 14:09 |
| DrekAlots | I'm trying to install an extention in virtual box and it keeps asking for the admin password. I use my password and it fails. Ubuntu doesn't use a root account so what gives? | 14:10 |
| blazemore | DrekAlots: "an extension" what do you mean? | 14:10 |
| wilee-nilee | DrekAlots, YOu installing inside the vbox? | 14:10 |
| wilee-nilee | and what extension | 14:11 |
| DrekAlots | blazemore: It's an Oracle_VM extension for USB connectivity. WHen you double click the file it launches vbox to install it but then fails because no root password is given. | 14:11 |
| \n | I get the same /casper/vmlinuz error now. ._. | 14:11 |
| wilee-nilee | DrekAlots, you can add a usb in the settings | 14:12 |

| yalex | Hello, having troubles with files created on a cifs samba share. The second user can open files I create (through Ubuntu 12.04), they are using Windows and I cannot open their files/folders. Permissions for the folder is 770 and the group is users (which are the primary group on the samba server) | 14:13 |
| wilee-nilee | DrekAlots, NOt familiar, but I wonder if it is to be run inside the guest or host. | 14:14 |
| carvalho | OI | 14:14 |
| wilee-nilee | DrekAlots, Some info here. http://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch03.html You might call the #vbox channel as well. | 14:16 |
| === roman is now known as Guest97457 | ||
| varunendra | DrekAlots, I installed the extension pack long ago, so I may not remember correctly, but I think I didn't need admin password to install it. | 14:18 |
| wilee-nilee | DrekAlots, More here as well, addresses users group and that type of controller using settings. http://www.faqforge.com/linux/enable-usb-support-in-virtualbox-ubuntu/ | 14:18 |
| DrekAlots | wilee-nilee: thanks. | 14:19 |
| varunendra | wilee-nilee, that extension pack is kinda plugin to virtualbox, a separate binary file. | 14:19 |
| wilee-nilee | \n, I use the multisystem loader at pendrive linux for usb loads. | 14:19 |
| surio | varunendra, I'll have to reboot the machine. Will get back to you over the weekend... if I remain iwth 12.04 or move to 13.04 | 14:19 |
| wilee-nilee | varunendra, Cool, just passing info. | 14:20 |
| blazemore | I saved myself a headache and ended up getting an iso-stick | 14:20 |
| surio | \n what did you do differently now? | 14:20 |
| varunendra | DrekAlots, what if you open virtualbox first, then "File > Preferences > Extensions > add yours (must be supported version) | 14:20 |
| varunendra | surio, I'll be curious :) | 14:20 |
| wilee-nilee | \n, Miltiple user have suggested the usb may be toast have you reformatted it for kicks in any of this? | 14:20 |
| wilee-nilee | Multiple* | 14:21 |
| DrekAlots | varunendra: checking now. | 14:21 |
| surio | wilee-nilee, I was the first to suggest the broken usb ;) | 14:21 |
| surio | hehe | 14:21 |
| * surio pats own back :) | 14:21 | |
| DrekAlots | varunendra: Still asking for password. | 14:22 |
| surio | goodbye room | 14:22 |
| wilee-nilee | varunendra, With a quick glance on that device it looked like a usb addition in settings as well was needed, but I was just glancing. | 14:22 |
| blazemore | DrekAlots: What are you actually trying to do? Are you following any instructions? Can you link them? | 14:23 |
| wilee-nilee | for the device though I guess | 14:23 |
| varunendra | DrekAlots, then I might have mistaken, but it shouldn't be any different than any other sudo task. Are you sure you are typing correct password and caps lock etc is fine? | 14:23 |
| Sophaya | Hi, I'm assuming that if a repository is giving me a 404 error, then it's dead and there's no way for me to get the software via terminal? | 14:23 |
| wilee-nilee | Sophaya, What release are you running? | 14:24 |
| DrekAlots | blazemore: no instructions. just installing an extension. | 14:24 |
| Sophaya | 13.04 | 14:24 |
| ActionParsnip | Sophaya: not all PPAs support all releases. | 14:24 |
| OerHeks | Sophaya, dead is dead, what repo exactly? | 14:24 |
| Sophaya | one moment | 14:24 |
| ActionParsnip | Sophaya: did you check for another PPA? | 14:24 |
| ActionParsnip | Sophaya: there is more than one PPA on launchpad | 14:24 |
| \n | Ok, I've ddrescued the mini.iso to my USB. Installing now. | 14:24 |
| Sophaya | This one | 14:25 |
| Sophaya | http://ppa.launchpad.net/paullo612/unityshell-rotated/ubuntu/dists/raring/main/binary-amd64/Packages | 14:25 |
| \n | Of course I verified the SHA1 checksum too. | 14:25 |
| varunendra | wilee-nilee, those settings are "Per VM" settings, while extension pack is for VBox, universal for all VMs.. | 14:25 |
| Sophaya | It was one I added | 14:25 |
| ActionParsnip | Sophaya: http://ppa.launchpad.net/paullo612/unityshell-rotated/ubuntu/dists/ | 14:25 |
| ActionParsnip | Sophaya: only supports Oneiric and Precise | 14:25 |
| varunendra | wilee-nilee, those USB settings (per VM) can't be enabled unless the extension pack is installed. | 14:25 |
| Sophaya | So they will not work on 13.04? | 14:26 |
| yalex | I have force create mode at 0700 and directory mode 770 and create mask at 770 but a folder I"m creating in the samba share does not provide write access to the group | 14:26 |
| blazemore | Sophaya: no, it will 404 | 14:26 |
| wilee-nilee | varunendra, Ah sort of what I figured I only use the general extension. | 14:26 |
| Sophaya | Ah I see, what is so different that it will not work? | 14:26 |
| ActionParsnip | Sophaya: not that PPA, there may be another oe supporting Raring, or you can contact the PPA maintainer to see if they intend to support Raring | 14:27 |
| varunendra | wilee-nilee, the windows version includes the extension pack by default I guess... :) | 14:27 |
| wilee-nilee | varunendra, Yeah I think so. | 14:27 |
| ActionParsnip | Sophaya: or reinstall with Precise which is LTS and supported wayyyy past Raring and use the PPA | 14:27 |
| Sophaya | Hm I see | 14:28 |
| wilee-nilee | Sophaya, You trying to move the unity panel? | 14:30 |
| Sophaya | Yes | 14:30 |
| Sophaya | I'm trying to find a means of getting it on the bottom of the screen. | 14:30 |
| tom_o | how can i change my account permission to root? | 14:31 |
| wilee-nilee | Sophaya, The holy grail, lol I just use the cairo-dock | 14:31 |
| blazemore | !sudo | tom_o | 14:31 |
| ubottu | tom_o: sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (GNOME, Xfce), or !kdesudo (KDE). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo | 14:31 |
| Sophaya | I've tried cairo, lol, I didn't like it, it felt sluggish. | 14:31 |
| ActionParsnip | tom_o: accounts in the 'sudo' group have root access | 14:31 |
| \n | I have a problem... | 14:31 |
| ActionParsnip | Sophaya: docky? cairo-dock? | 14:32 |
| blazemore | Sophaya: You could look at another desktop environment like XFCE or KDE (try #xubuntu or #kubuntu) | 14:32 |
| \n | Mirror does not support the specified release (raring) | 14:32 |
| wilee-nilee | Sophaya, One would think if possible there would be allowances to move it anywhere. | 14:32 |
| tom_o | i cant change the folder permission | 14:32 |
| Sophaya | I've tried a few and asides the immovable launcher bar, unity seems to be the best for my system | 14:32 |
| tom_o | it always back to "----" after i change it to read and write | 14:33 |
| ActionParsnip | tom_o: is it stored on NTFS? | 14:34 |

| tom_o | no | 14:35 |
| JennaKitten | and keep the search thing | 14:35 |
| tom_o | i only use ubuntu | 14:35 |

| tom_o | no | 14:36 |
| tom_o | but i think its ntfs | 14:36 |
| tom_o | coz i use windows xp before and i remember li'l bit | 14:37 |
| ActionParsnip | \n: then change server | 14:37 |
| ActionParsnip | tom_o: if it is stored in NTFS you will need to change the mount settings at mount time | 14:37 |
| ActionParsnip | tom_o: you cannot set Linux ACLs on NTFS, it won't work | 14:38 |

| ActionParsnip | tom_o: no, its only an NTFS partition. Why would that need a reinstall? | 14:40 |
| Dacs | ActionParsnip: am not at that box now i can check it when i am on that box | 14:40 |
| ActionParsnip | Dacs: do you have an SSH connection to it? | 14:40 |
| tom_o | what should i do? can i just change it to fat32 with gparted ? | 14:40 |
| ActionParsnip | tom_o: that wil need a format, FAT32 is just as bad. You will need a Linux partition to hold Linux ACLs | 14:41 |
| Dacs | ActionParsnip: i wish man, i used to until my stup*d ISP decided to block all ports | 14:41 |
| ActionParsnip | Dacs: does the system have a make and model? | 14:41 |
| tom_o | doesnt need anything ? just change itu to linux form g parted ? | 14:42 |
| Dacs | ActionParsnip: dell power edge 860 | 14:42 |
| \n | Dacs, if you don't need a HTTPS server, make sshd listen on port 443 | 14:43 |
| blazemore | Dacs: Port 53 is a good one too; if you're on free public WiFi they usually don't look at port 53 traffic at all, so you can tunnel everything through ssh and browse for free | 14:44 |
| Dacs | \n: i scanned all the ports and the only one is open was 80 | 14:44 |
| \n | o_O | 14:44 |

| Anaxandridas | Hi, guys. Recently installed Ubuntu. Am having trouble installing themes. I tried copying the theme into the ~/.themes folder, but it doesn't show up in my themes list. It's also not letting me download themes from the internet. I can view a list, select some, but clicking "Download and Install" has no effect. I have also tried doing it through the Change Desktop Background menu from rightclicking the desktop. Help please? | 15:31 |
| Anaxandridas | Kadal, that's how you ask a question, by the way :D | 15:31 |
| usr13 | kadal: And then send us the URL of the paste. | 15:31 |
| dan2003 | blazemore, i have a feeling ive read and done this already, but ill check to be sure, USB devices genrally still end up as hw:0 unless each and every 1 is explicitly given an index | 15:32 |
| usr13 | !themes | Anaxandridas | 15:32 |
| ubottu | Anaxandridas: Find your themes at: http://www.gnome-look.org - http://art.gnome.org - http://www.kde-look.org - http://kubuntu-art.org - http://themes.freecode.com/tags/theme - http://www.guistyles.com - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/ - Also see !changethemes and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy | 15:32 |
| blazemore | Smugness backfired, Anaxandridas | 15:32 |
| Anaxandridas | usr13, I'm so glad you can type !themes. Any chance you could also supply some assistance? | 15:32 |
| Anaxandridas | I can FIND themes just fine. Loads of them. I can't get them to come up on the themes list. | 15:33 |
| usr13 | No | 15:33 |
| dan2003 | blazemore, intrestingly, there is this in alsa-base.conf | 15:33 |
| dan2003 | # Keep snd-usb-audio from beeing loaded as first soundcard | 15:33 |
| dan2003 | options snd-usb-audio index=-2 | 15:33 |
| dan2003 | but it clealry doesnt work either | 15:33 |
| blazemore | Anaxandridas: Why doesn't the information in !themes work for you? | 15:33 |
| blazemore | !changethemes | Anaxandridas | 15:33 |

| OerHeks | Anaxandridas, did you try logout/login again? | 15:33 |
| Anaxandridas | OerHeks, yes. But even if that were it, I should still be able to download new ones from the list... But it won't download. I don't even know that the two things are related, but it seems an odd coincidence. | 15:34 |

| bobi1024 | question | 15:51 |
| bobi1024 | can I use with intel graphics the same feature as Nvidia - "Separate X Screens" ? | 15:52 |
| foubarre | wilee-nilee: tried the new sources. Same problem. It seems that any repo that is "I386" is moved temporarly | 15:53 |
| wilee-nilee | foubarre, Maybe a mirror problem, you can change those, I'm not sure of the full details of your problem. | 15:54 |
| foubarre | wilee-nilee: i tried the german mirrors too and i have the same problem. | 15:54 |
| foubarre | wilee-nilee: ok. | 15:55 |
| blazemore | foubarre: Just to rule this out: you *are* running apt-get update between changing your sources.list right? | 15:55 |
| wilee-nilee | foubarre, So the basic premise is no upgrade offered from 12.10 to 13.04? | 15:55 |
| foubarre | blazemore: yep, sir | 15:55 |
| foubarre | wilee-nilee: blazemore moreover i saw the change of repos from fr to de when i changed the sources.list urls | 15:56 |
| foubarre | wilee-nilee: not sure what you meant. What i wanted to do is to upgrade to 13.04. | 15:58 |
| wilee-nilee | foubarre, From what release? | 15:58 |
| foubarre | wilee-nilee: quantal. 12.10. | 15:59 |
| DJ_Beardsquirt | bobi1024: Sorry, fairly certain that feature is nvidia only. You might be able to set the primary monitor in xrandr with --primary if that's what you're trying to achieve | 15:59 |
| wilee-nilee | foubarre, Heh, that was my question "from 12.10 to 13.04" | 15:59 |
| bobi1024 | DJ_Beardsquirt: yeah I've thought so | 16:00 |
| bobi1024 | because every post on the net says it is impossible | 16:00 |
| foubarre | wilee-nilee: oh. Mh sorry not very skilled in english | 16:00 |
| bobi1024 | with nvidia was so easy | 16:00 |
| foubarre | wilee-nilee: you lost me with your "basic premise" | 16:01 |
| DJ_Beardsquirt | bobi1024: yeah, sorry i can't be of more help | 16:01 |
| wilee-nilee | foubarre, Something is up, that should be available if the software sources is set to all releases in the update manager. Don't worry english is my native and I barely speak it correctly, ;) | 16:01 |

| Sockseven | Hi, can anyone help me? Has anyone encountered a msi gt-70 laptop, because it refuses to boot linux under uefi and i'm all out of suggestions? | 17:20 |
| holstein | Sockseven: you can always ask the creator of the UEFI for support.. i assume you have tried the wiki suggestions? | 17:21 |
| holstein | !uefi > Sockseven | 17:21 |
| ubottu | Sockseven, please see my private message | 17:21 |
| wilee-nilee | randomaussie, You did not read that clearly, "You can simply install the "gnome-shell" package if GNOME Shell is all you want, but if you want the whole GNOME 3 desktop which includes the default applications as well as the default settings, use the command below" that is a either or statement, run sudo apt-get install gnome-shell. | 17:22 |
| Sockseven | oh yea. i've had a good old google. It's an odd problem, boot process jams at the ram disk. | 17:22 |
| holstein | Sockseven: if you purchased hardware that is not allowed to run OS's other than the one it comes with, you might have a challenge forcing that.. have you asked the manufacturer? | 17:22 |
| randomaussie | wilee-nile: i have already got that installed | 17:23 |
| Sockseven | i've not contacted them directly. thing is, it boots through legacy (bios) fine, so i installed it through grub bios and upgraded it to uefi. | 17:23 |
| usr13 | holstein: Yes! (We need to *complain*.) | 17:23 |
| wilee-nilee | randomaussie, Have you run the command sudo apt-get install gnome-shell | 17:24 |
| Sockseven | i should also mention it wont boot any live cds or anything under uefi | 17:24 |
| randomaussie | wilee-nilee: yes | 17:24 |
| wilee-nilee | randomaussie, Not sure then. | 17:24 |
| randomaussie | wilee-nilee: just checked it again and says already have hte lastest version | 17:24 |
| holstein | Sockseven: the "legacy" setup is the way that allows you to use the hardware in a legacy mode, which is the 'not locked down' mode | 17:24 |
| holstein | Sockseven: i would run it in that way, if its an option | 17:24 |

| ubottu | randomaussie: Ubuntu 11.10 and higher use GNOME 3 with the !unity shell by default. To use GNOME Shell instead, from 12.10 an up install the "ubuntu-gnome-desktop" package. From 11.04 to 12.04, install the "gnome-shell" package and investigate "gnome-tweak-tool". For GNOME Fallback mode, which is similar to GNOME 2, install "gnome-panel". Both packages will place entries in the Sessions dropdown. Using Natty? See !classic | 17:27 |
| holstein | Sockseven: yeah? seems like i would say its the UEFI that, when disabled, allow the live CD's to boot that is the issue | 17:27 |
| wilee-nilee | randomaussie, Heh, thats all any of us can do, best of luck. ;) | 17:27 |
| wilee-nilee | mmmm uefi | 17:28 |
| randomaussie | ubottu: thanksd mate.. yes i'm using 12.04 | 17:28 |
| ubottu | randomaussie: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 17:28 |
| Sockseven | well thats the thing, uefi booting runs windows fine, and loads grub fine, its just anything linux based wont boot, but with legacy grub is fine. | 17:28 |
| randomaussie | well thanks anyways ubottu: | 17:29 |
| holstein | Sockseven: AFAIK, because its not "signed".. and thats is the agreement you have with that hardware configuration | 17:29 |
| Sockseven | i thought that was only with secureboot on? which is turned off of course? | 17:29 |
| holstein | Sockseven: i dont have that hardware, so i would have to ask the manufacturer | 17:29 |
| === bfiller_lunch is now known as bfiller | ||
| Sockseven | well, i just find it odd that if i do the usual, recovery mode + no splash + verbose, etc then i can see it load the kernel, and then it stops at the ram disk. I guess my only option is to go to msi directly? | 17:32 |
| holstein | Sockseven: sounds like you can diable UEFI, and have access to the hardware | 17:32 |
| holstein | Sockseven: i can assure you, nothing about linux/ubuntu is preventing itself from running on your hardware | 17:33 |
| === brandon__ is now known as weblife | ||
| Sockseven | i just find it odd taht no distro of any type, linux or linux based recovery disk will boot past loading the ram disk. I guess my best bet is to convert windows to legacy then? | 17:36 |
| Sockseven | and boot using legacy only... | 17:37 |
| holstein | Sockseven: i thought that was the agreement.. and i know that is supposed to be the job of "secure boot".. but keep in mind, nothing about that product stated officially "run whatever OS you like" | 17:37 |
| Sockseven | well secure boot is disabled. thankfully the bios includes that option | 17:38 |
| holstein | we all know that UEFI can be problematic and i think its safe to assume that is the issue, since disabling it seems to make the issue go away | 17:38 |
| wilee-nilee | Sockseven, Unfortunatly even with holstein's great help there is a thread at the ubuntu forum on the multiple possibilities in this area, if you are till trying once back on it is here. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2147295 | 17:39 |

| wilee-nilee | the pinhead is in the house | 18:12 |
| zipy | DJones, i just was curious what the bot says | 18:12 |
| joshu | how can I troubleshoot why cmake settings I supply on the command line such as –DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/test are not applied | 18:12 |
| DJones | zipy: Use /msg ubottu yourinfohere for things like that, it saves filling the channel up with un-needed comments | 18:13 |
| mare | I'm looking for something that shows a little of what ubuntu does, what it looks like, and how to install it. | 18:13 |
| zipy | ye but i didnt know that | 18:13 |
| holstein | !install > mare | 18:13 |
| ubottu | mare, please see my private message | 18:13 |
| mare | ubottu: where is your private message? | 18:13 |
| zipy | ubottu, is a bot | 18:14 |
| ubottu | Yes, I can confirm that I am a bot. http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Bots for all information. | 18:14 |
| holstein | mare: you can run the live CD on your hardware, and see it in action without changing your hardware setup or config | 18:14 |
| holstein | mare: you can see youtube videos and/or screenshots easily as well | 18:14 |
| mare | the live CD???? | 18:14 |
| mare | how about if I look on the internet? | 18:14 |
| holstein | !install | mare | 18:14 |
| ubottu | mare: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall - See also !automate | 18:14 |
| zipy | yes you can download a live cd and put it on usb or burn it on cd and boot from it | 18:14 |
| yalex | hello how do I set samba shares to be r+w+x for users and groups and no permissions for world? | 18:16 |
| Estrobeda | hello i dont think this is the right place to ask this but i will try any way. I have saved money to build a pc. | 18:17 |
| krywk | I'm in need of help regarding an SDHC and formatting. | 18:17 |
| mare | I looked on youtube but got a guy talking for 45 minutes about what a mess the program is | 18:17 |
| holstein | krywk: i use gparted to format.. you can use it from a liveCD | 18:17 |
| holstein | mare: try it live.. and see for yourself.. | 18:18 |
| Estrobeda | -> and i wanted to ask if there is a place to ask if the hardware is good at running ubuntu "i dont understand the hardware support list" | 18:18 |
| DreamPCs | Hey guys, anyone know how I can change the screen timeout settings (when it blanks the display) in Ubuntu 13.10? | 18:18 |
| mare | is there no link to a site that lets you see what it looks like? | 18:18 |
| holstein | Estrobeda: there are resellers such as system76 that sell hardware with ubuntu and ubuntu support | 18:18 |
| brma | yalex: chmod 770 (r/w/x for ownser & group, no perms for everyone) add the -r flag if you want it to chmod recursively | 18:18 |
| holstein | mare: plenty | 18:18 |
| mare | and how do you download it from the internet? | 18:18 |
| DJones | !13.10 | DreamPCs | 18:18 |
| ubottu | DreamPCs: Ubuntu 13.10 (Saucy Salamander) will be the 19th release of Ubuntu. Announcement: http://www.markshuttleworth.com/archives/1252 - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1 | 18:18 |
| Estrobeda | holstein: ok thx | 18:18 |
| randomaussie | Any one have experiance with hte Seti@home BOINC client? | 18:18 |
| krywk | This is what happens: 1. Have an SD full of things. 2. Unmount SD. 3. Format SD to FAT32 (erases everything). 4. Mount SD. | 18:18 |
| krywk | The files are still there. | 18:19 |
| yalex | thanks brma I did that but what mask should i use in smbd.conf? | 18:19 |
| krywk | And they keep appearing and appearing again | 18:19 |
| holstein | mare: http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/take-the-tour | 18:19 |
| wilee-nilee | mare, everyone has opinions, however valid in their own personal reality and world view bubble. | 18:19 |
| zipy | mare, www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop here u can download the desktop version and installation instructions | 18:19 |
| QTPieMan | !openjdk | 18:19 |
| DreamPCs | Thanks DJones | 18:19 |
| holstein | Estrobeda: even if you just refer to the sites of the resellers for hardware suggestions.. i usually try and run a live CD on the hardware first hand.. or search by known components | 18:20 |
| krywk | Anyone? | 18:20 |
| QTPieMan | !mark | 18:20 |
| ubottu | Mark "sabdfl" Shuttleworth is our favourite cosmonaut, the founder of Canonical and the primary driver behind Ubuntu. You can find pieces of his thinking at http://www.markshuttleworth.com | 18:20 |
| brma | yalex: not sure. Sorry | 18:20 |
| holstein | Estrobeda: its near impossible to have a known good suppported list, since hardware revisions can change at any time | 18:20 |
| mare | FABULOUS!!! EXACTLY WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR!!!! Why do they not put THAT on the homepage?????????????????????????????/// | 18:20 |
| cuddylier | Is there a way to monitor traffic when my server box is getting DDOSed and get the IPs DDOSing me? Also, if the IPs are spoofed is there anyway I can get the real IP? | 18:20 |
| * wilee-nilee turns down his hearing aid. | 18:21 | |
| holstein | krywk: i would do a more complete wipe and format.. boot and nuke or whatever | 18:21 |
| zipy | krywk, r u talking about an sd card or ssd hard drive? | 18:21 |
| randomaussie | if i have software that i cna install from the software center that isnt uptodate how can i go about finding the install location so i can manualy update it | 18:21 |
| Estrobeda | ok | 18:21 |
| krywk | SDHC Card. | 18:21 |
| krywk | holstein: How do I nuke the SD card? | 18:21 |
| mumpitze1 | cuddylier: you can get the IPs, no you obviously can't determine the real IPs from spoofed ones | 18:21 |
| holstein | krywk: boot and nuke was actually the suggestion.. let me get a link for you | 18:21 |
| mare | ubuntu is not the same as linux then? | 18:22 |
| mare | So I will avoid Linux I guess? | 18:22 |
| holstein | krywk: for example http://www.dban.org/ | 18:22 |
| wilee-nilee | krywk, You ave the read only switch on? | 18:22 |
| zipy | !linux | mare | 18:22 |
| ubottu | mare: Linux is the kernel (core) of the Ubuntu operating system. Many operating systems use Linux as a kernel. For more information on Linux in general, visit http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux | 18:22 |
| SolarisBoy | linux is a kernel ubuntu is based on linux mare | 18:22 |
| holstein | mare: linux is a kernel that ubuntu uses | 18:22 |
| krywk | wilee-nilee, no. | 18:22 |
| SolarisBoy | ubuntu is a full OS | 18:22 |
| holstein | mare: ubuntu is a linux OS | 18:22 |
| cuddylier | mumpitzel What about if I know the spoofed IPs, can I determine the real source IP from them? | 18:22 |
| mare | So do I have to get both linux and ubuntu then? | 18:23 |
| wilee-nilee | krywk, Strange gparted should wipe it. | 18:23 |
| holstein | mare: ubuntu *includes* linux | 18:23 |
| zipy | its already included | 18:23 |
| mumpitze1 | mare: no. linux is part of ubuntu | 18:23 |
| mare | so I can just get ubuntu? | 18:23 |
| krywk | wilee-nilee, sadly it doesn't. | 18:23 |
| SolarisBoy | cuddylier: what type of DDOS attack is it? you may be able to look at the subnets and determine where the spoofed ips are coming from | 18:23 |
| holstein | mare: you can do what you like.. ubuntu is an operating system... it uses the linux kernel | 18:23 |
| bazhang | mare, did you actually read any of the links? | 18:23 |
| SolarisBoy | but you probably wont do well getting the actual source ip's - your concern should be more so preventing it - and determing how exactly they are doing it so you can patch it in the future | 18:24 |
| cuddylier | SolarisBoy Would I be able to determinate anything more than the location or would I be able to get specifically where? | 18:24 |
| mumpitze1 | krywk: what is the device name /dev/... for the SDHC card? | 18:24 |
| zipy | krywk, sudo wipe -r /pathtoyoursdcard | 18:24 |
| cuddylier | SolarisBoy I think they are TCP attacks | 18:24 |
| SolarisBoy | cuddylier: it depends - for instance if they are all associated to a AN number you may be able to look up more details on who owns it or the block | 18:24 |
| SolarisBoy | that would only get you to whos systems are being *abused* to accomplish the attack though | 18:24 |
| cuddylier | SolarisBoy Ah okay | 18:24 |
| SolarisBoy | but it could help - | 18:24 |
| mare | but ubuntu will not work unless I get linux as well? | 18:24 |
| bazhang | mare, please stop | 18:25 |
| Pelayo | mare: linux is a kernel, the core of the system, and there are lots of distributions using it: Ubuntu, Mint, Red Hat, SuSe... | 18:25 |
| mare | can I use open office with ubuntu? | 18:25 |
| zipy | if u get ubuntu u got linux already | 18:25 |
| bazhang | mare, please read the links | 18:25 |
| krywk | mumpitze1, /dev/sde | 18:25 |
| cuddylier | SolarisBoy Is there any easy way to get the IPs if I have a fair amount of network traffic? | 18:25 |
| wilee-nilee | mare, IN the simplest answer linux is the kernel | 18:25 |
| SolarisBoy | cuddylier: yes sort them with netstat | 18:25 |
| krywk | zipy, sudo: wipe: command not found | 18:25 |
| holstein | mare: libreoffice..and yes, you can use whatever you like with ubuntu, which again, *includes* the linux kernel | 18:25 |
| l3d | was wondering if there is a way to pick witch monitor is the main screen/ I have a laptop connected to a lcd tv hdmi which I would like to make the main screen and a lcd 19inch monitor I would like as extra screen to do terminal stuff in. But as it is now they are backwards 19inch is the main. | 18:25 |
| cuddylier | SolarisBoy What would I search for though? | 18:25 |
| SolarisBoy | cuddylier: insert knowing a little about the attack - | 18:25 |
| wilee-nilee | mare, and lol read the links as suggested | 18:26 |
| zipy | krywk, k then u have to install wipe first with sudo apt-get install wipe | 18:26 |
| mare | holstein: libreoffice, but not openoffice? | 18:26 |
| SolarisBoy | cuddylier: if you know that its a dns flood - you may want to look at where the dns "replies" are coming from | 18:26 |
| Pelayo | mare, both are available anywhere... | 18:26 |
| holstein | mare: if you want to run the older version, you can.. | 18:26 |
| SolarisBoy | hence packets with src of 53 or such cuddylier | 18:26 |
| mumpitze1 | krywk: sudo if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sde bs=512 count 100. this will overwrite your SDCH partition table and the first 100 sectors. it will "wipe" the SDHC guaranteed. you will want to create a new partition table and partitions with "sudo fdisl /dev/sde" then and afterwards format it with whatever mkfs you want | 18:26 |
| mare | holstein: okay, and I download just ubuntu then? | 18:26 |
| SolarisBoy | cuddylier: and adjust that based on the attack port - if you can get that info.. | 18:26 |
| holstein | mare: thats what is suggested | 18:26 |
| mumpitze1 | krywk: but be very very very careful that it actually is the SDHC card. mine always use something like /dev/mmblk0 or similar | 18:27 |
| zipy | mare, libreoffice is the new name of old openoffice. open office was bought by oracle | 18:27 |
| wilee-nilee | and now apahce | 18:27 |
| holstein | mare: if you want to use ubuntu, you'll need to obtain it, and downloading is arguably the easiest way | 18:27 |
| wilee-nilee | apache | 18:27 |
| mumpitze1 | zipy: openoffice is still the name of openoffice | 18:27 |
| zipy | oracle gave it to apache | 18:27 |
| mare | holstein: is there a version of adobe acrobat pro that can be used on it? openacrobat pro or something? or a list of software that works with it? | 18:27 |
| Pelayo | yep, and openoffice just released version 4.0 | 18:27 |
| holstein | mare: nothing about linux/ubuntu is preventing adobe from providing you whatever appliation that is | 18:28 |
| holstein | mare: can you open pdf files in ubuntu? yes | 18:28 |
| SolarisBoy | mare: they have PDF creation software - i am not sure if acrobat works - there may be ways to install it via wine assuming its supported - | 18:28 |
| krywk | mumpitze1, sudo: count: command not found | 18:28 |
| Pelayo | or create and export them from libreoffice | 18:28 |
| holstein | mare: *all* of this can be tested from the live CD.. | 18:28 |
| DJones | mare: zipy: Actually, Libreoffice was forked to create Openoffice, Oracle bought LIbreOffice | 18:28 |
| mare | Holstein: more than opening, I need to edit and combine them and switch them back and forth between word and pdf. maybe a software list would help | 18:29 |
| mumpitze1 | krywk: sorry. sudo if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sde bs=512 count=100 forgot a "=" | 18:29 |
| holstein | mare: as suggested, that can be done in libreoffice, and from the live CD | 18:29 |
| mare | what is a liveCD? | 18:29 |
| SolarisBoy | a way to test a OS without installing it mare | 18:29 |
| IdleOne | mare: Time to read the links ubottu provided | 18:29 |
| mare | and how will I use it on my computer that has no CD drive? | 18:29 |
| wilee-nilee | enablers | 18:29 |
| Pelayo | mare, usb drive | 18:30 |
| Nisstyre-laptop | Er, question: is there a reason the www-data user has a real shell? (/bin/sh on this system), and is it fine to change it to /bin/false? I assume it doesn't need a shell for anything... | 18:30 |
| mumpitze1 | mare: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCD | 18:30 |
| DJones | mare: You can use a USB stick | 18:30 |
| krywk | mumpitze1, comes up with the 'sudo' usage manpage | 18:30 |
| Nisstyre-laptop | It seems rather insecure after all | 18:30 |
| craigbass1976 | I've got /share It's permissions are set to 777. It's shared out via samba, with wide open permissions (so that windows users can get at stuff with no trouble) and mounted to my /home/me via fstab. THe smb.conf create mask is set to 777, but when I create something from the linux box it's 755, then I can't do anything to the file or directory because nobody:nogroup owns it. I don't want my default create mask to be 777, jus | 18:30 |
| craigbass1976 | t for that share | 18:30 |
| SolarisBoy | you could also boot it from grub assuming it were available on /boot somewhere | 18:30 |
| zipy | krywk, but make sure u put in the right path in of=... since it will overwrite any partition u put in there | 18:30 |
| SolarisBoy | @live cd's | 18:30 |
| mumpitze1 | krywk: sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sde bs=512 count=100 | 18:30 |
| mumpitze1 | Nisstyre-laptop: might be needed for cgi? | 18:31 |
| Nisstyre-laptop | mumpitze1: would php-fpm require it? I doubt it | 18:31 |
| mumpitze1 | Nisstyre-laptop: I don't know | 18:31 |
| Nisstyre-laptop | besides, that runs under a different user | 18:31 |
| SolarisBoy | you should be able to set it to bin false | 18:31 |
| Nisstyre-laptop | I'm going to | 18:31 |
| SolarisBoy | if your app breaks then set it back | 18:31 |
| SolarisBoy | Nisstyre-laptop: interesting - my www-data user defaults /bin/sh also | 18:33 |
| SolarisBoy | wow - and i just switched to him... | 18:33 |
| mare | If I have a computer that runs really badly with windows, will installing ubuntu make any difference? or will it just make is run both in both systems? | 18:33 |
| mare | oops, badly with both systems | 18:34 |
| mumpitze1 | craigbass1976: http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/using_samba/ch08.html read about "creation masks" there. it's a setting for the samba share you can use | 18:34 |
| mutante | can i PermitRootLogin in sshd from one interface (localhost) but not permit it from other interface (eth0) without running 2 separate sshds? | 18:34 |
| Nisstyre-laptop | SolarisBoy: it seems like a security hole tbh | 18:34 |
| holstein | mare: depends.. ubuntu will not fix or reconcile broken hardware, if that is what is making windows perform badly | 18:34 |
| SolarisBoy | mare pretty open ended question - probably need to know why it performs bad | 18:34 |
| Nisstyre-laptop | shouldn't be the default | 18:34 |
| SolarisBoy | Nisstyre-laptop: no question about that | 18:34 |
| mumpitze1 | mare: depends. if it's an old computer with a small amount of RAM you should use something like Lubuntu | 18:34 |
| cruisemaniac | Hello folks! can you please help me with postfix + dovecot + squirrelmail on ubuntu 12.10. This is my first time around. I'm not seeing a protocol imap section in the dovecot.conf file | 18:34 |
| mare | depends on definition of old. it is 2 years old. and yes small amount of ram | 18:35 |
| holstein | mare: using a live CD is a great diagnostic tool, since it bypassed the installed OS, and the hard drive, and includes tools for testing the memory and the hard drive | 18:35 |
| SolarisBoy | i wonder whos fault it is - the www-data probably gets created in post/pre install of some webserver/service and likely gets setup insecurely there | 18:35 |
| krywk | mumpitze1, what do I do in fdisk? | 18:35 |
| mare | that's the computer with no cd drive, but I see something about flashdrive option | 18:35 |
| mumpitze1 | krywk: you create new partitions. the old ones on the SDHC card are all gone | 18:35 |
| holstein | mare: using a live CD will literally harm nothing, and answer most, if not all of your questions.. it was one of the first things i suggested to you, and i still suggest it | 18:35 |
| mumpitze1 | mare: please tell us what CPU, what videocard andhow much RAM it has please? | 18:36 |
| holstein | mare: and, as was stated, and guides linked, you can use the live CD via USB stick | 18:36 |
| mare | okay, so just need to figure out how to get a hold of this live cd thing | 18:36 |
| Nisstyre-laptop | SolarisBoy: yeah, I'd have to dig through the setup scripts | 18:36 |
| holstein | !install | mare | 18:36 |
| ubottu | mare: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall - See also !automate | 18:36 |
| SolarisBoy | Nisstyre-laptop: do you run nginx? | 18:36 |
| QTPieMan | !x | 18:36 |

| Nisstyre-laptop | SolarisBoy: yes | 18:36 |
| mare | where do I find cpu, videocard info? | 18:36 |
| SolarisBoy | Nisstyre-laptop: i think we have a culprit | 18:36 |
| Pici | !botabuse | QTPieMan | 18:36 |
| ubottu | QTPieMan: Please investigate with me only with "/msg ubottu Bot" or in #ubuntu-bots. Search for factoids with "/msg ubottu !search factoid". | 18:36 |

| mare | toshiba NB505-N508BL | 18:37 |
| SolarisBoy | edit: Nisstyre-laptop nginx from default repo or some PPA? mines from a PPA and it's all starting to make more sense... | 18:37 |
| Nisstyre-laptop | SolarisBoy: default repo | 18:38 |
| SolarisBoy | blah =( | 18:38 |
| SolarisBoy | thats kinda crappy i never noticed that huge flaw.. | 18:38 |
| SolarisBoy | Nisstyre-laptop: good eyes sir/mam | 18:38 |
| Nisstyre-laptop | SolarisBoy: yeah I don't even know why I was looking | 18:38 |
| Nisstyre-laptop | I just noticed it and went wtf | 18:39 |
| QTPieMan | Pici, ok | 18:39 |
| SolarisBoy | +1 | 18:39 |
| Nisstyre-laptop | SolarisBoy: I might see if I can reproduce it in a fresh vm install or something | 18:39 |
| QTPieMan | Nisstyre-laptop, i think nginx is a bit slow | 18:40 |
| Nisstyre-laptop | QTPieMan: you have to tune it a bit | 18:40 |
| Nisstyre-laptop | it can handle large numbers of connections quite well | 18:40 |
| QTPieMan | Nisstyre-laptop, whats prob with apache2? | 18:40 |
| Nisstyre-laptop | QTPieMan: nginx is just more to my taste, I'm not a fan of apache's concurrency model | 18:41 |
| QTPieMan | Nisstyre-laptop, oh ok | 18:41 |
| QTPieMan | Nisstyre-laptop, also lightttpd is good | 18:42 |
| Nisstyre-laptop | QTPieMan: sure | 18:42 |
| Nisstyre-laptop | there are probably other good ones too | 18:42 |

| mumpitze1 | krywk: reboot. can happen when you rewrite the partition table. or at least remove the SD card and then plug it back in. that might reset the kernel tables too | 18:47 |
| krywk | mumpitze1, already tried with unplug/plug, still the same, gonna try with reboot | 18:47 |
| mare | does anyone know of a list of software that works with ubuntu? | 18:48 |
| share | how to restart gnome3 from console? | 18:48 |
| SolarisBoy | share: gnome3 isn't really a daemon - you probably want to restart your display manager | 18:48 |
| mare | and finally, and most importantly, is it similar to windows in that nothing ever works, and when it is working, it does an automatic update which makes something that used to work not work anymore? | 18:48 |
| share | SolarisBoy: i tried | 18:48 |
| SolarisBoy | how? | 18:48 |
| share | systemctl restart gdm.service | 18:49 |
| QTPieMan | anybody using cinnamon de? | 18:49 |
| SolarisBoy | thats not an ubuntu command is it? | 18:49 |
| SolarisBoy | looks like arch | 18:49 |
| share | SolarisBoy: no :) yes | 18:49 |
| mumpitze1 | mare: here is a big list http://packages.ubuntu.com/raring/ | 18:49 |
| share | bye | 18:49 |
| mumpitze1 | SolarisBoy: he ran away pretty fast :) | 18:50 |
| SolarisBoy | lol yeppers | 18:50 |
| SolarisBoy | mare https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ListOfOpenSourcePrograms | 18:51 |
| SolarisBoy | your asking with all your questions - there are thousands of applications, some are direct ports, some implement functionalities, you really need to just boot the Live CD and explore | 18:51 |
| SolarisBoy | and keep google on your side | 18:51 |
| mare | hmm, unfortunately nothing in the list looks like a doc or pdf type file creator | 18:51 |
| SolarisBoy | yea well you need to use google there | 18:52 |
| SolarisBoy | it's out of scope for every single application or thing oen person would want to be listed there in detail | 18:52 |
| QTPieMan | Poisoned_Dragon, hello :P | 18:52 |
| SolarisBoy | you would get further on an ubuntu system typing "pdf" in a search box for software center than asking everyone here. | 18:52 |
| mare | thanks solaris, i see it in your list | 18:52 |
| SolarisBoy | trust me, | 18:52 |
| DJones | mare: You asked about openoffice and libreoffice eariler, they are doc creators, Ubuntu will let you save any document as a pdf | 18:53 |

| ubottu | mare: acroread (source: acroread): Adobe Reader. In component main, is extra. Version 9.5.5-1raring1 (partner), package size 15 kB, installed size 65 kB | 18:53 |

| SolarisBoy | ... | 18:53 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | hi QTPieMan | 18:53 |
| holstein | mare: i use libreoffice to create pdf's | 18:54 |
| SolarisBoy | ubuntu AFAIK has PDF libraries included somehow because "Print to PDF" seems to be an option on most if not all default installs as of recent | 18:54 |
| DJones | mare: File, Export as PDF, thats it | 18:54 |
| SolarisBoy | and then there are _tons_ literally tons of PDF manipulation apps | 18:54 |
| holstein | all of which can be tested from the live CD (via usb stick) | 18:55 |
| SolarisBoy | &then yes like everyone else stated libre/open office work with PDF file | 18:55 |
| craigbass1976 | mumpitze1, create and directory masks were both at 777 already. I tried the inherit permissions = yes, but that didn't help. Directories get created with 775. My fstab line is //192.168.2.107/moulton-files /home/moultonr/share cifs guest,_netdev 0 0 | 18:55 |
| ix_ | does anyone know a mirror for ports.ubuntu.com ? | 18:55 |
| mumpitze1 | craigbass1976: it's not the fstab line but the share in smb.conf | 18:56 |
| mare | what do you use to combine several word and pdfs into one pdf? | 18:58 |
| holstein | mare: i dont use word documents.. | 18:59 |
| mare | i use adobe acrobat pro | 18:59 |
| === bruno is now known as Guest12142 | ||
| holstein | mare: nothing is preventing adobe from releasing acrobat pro for linux | 18:59 |
| mare | nice, but where do I find it? | 18:59 |
| holstein | mare: what you want to do can be done from linux.. but its not the "same" as windows | 18:59 |
| holstein | mare: find what? | 18:59 |
| ix_ | mare: you could just export the documents to pdf, I'm very sure there are programs to merge pdf's | 18:59 |
| mare | adobe acrobat pro for linux that you say adobe is going to release | 18:59 |
| holstein | mare: i did *not* say that | 19:00 |
| mare | yes, adobe acrobat pro combines them. what is the open source version? | 19:00 |
| holstein | mare: i said, they are welcome to release a linux version.. but AFAIK, they do not | 19:00 |
| yalex | Hello how can i set the default permissions for new files to include write for groups, ACLs don't appear to be working | 19:00 |
| holstein | mare: if acrobat pro use is a "deal breaker", then you can look into using it in wine | 19:00 |
| mare | using it in wine? what does that mean? | 19:01 |
| holstein | mare: otherwise, i have no trouble creating pdf's as mentioned above.. in libreoffice, or with print to pdf.. both of which can be tested, free of charge, from a live CD | 19:01 |
| Kitt3n | mare, install Wine then just install the Windows adobe pdf thing | 19:01 |
| holstein | !wine | 19:01 |
| ubottu | WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux - More information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine - Search the !AppDB for application compatibility ratings - Join #winehq for application help - See !virtualizers for running Windows (or another OS) inside Ubuntu | 19:01 |
| ix_ | mare: I see you can merge pdf's online too, you might try that | 19:01 |
| holstein | mare: wine is a way you can try to run the *exact* application you want from windows in linux | 19:02 |
| yalex | new files are only being create user rw and group r i'm using a cifs mount | 19:03 |
| DJones | mare: If you need Windows app's that won't run under wine, you should use Windows to get the best results, Ubuntu is an alternative operating system, but isn't suitable for everybodies needs | 19:04 |
| Kitt3n | It can totally be | 19:05 |
| mare | does ubuntu constantly stop working and make you want to throw your computer at the wall like windows? | 19:05 |
| Kitt3n | ^ | 19:05 |
| holstein | mare: anyone is capable of misuing and misconfiguring *any* os | 19:05 |
| Kitt3n | Not Apple's,that's too locked down to do anything | 19:06 |
| mare | does that mean yes? automatic downloads that you can't stop from happening that then make your software not work? | 19:06 |
| holstein | mare: it means, you are welcome to manage the operating system as you wish | 19:06 |
| mare | cause if it is just as hateful as windows, there's no point in doing it | 19:06 |
| mare | i was hoping it would be more like apple in the sense that all the software always works together on the machine | 19:07 |
| holstein | mare: computers can be frustratin | 19:07 |
| holstein | mare: "hope" doesnt really apply here. only education and good practices | 19:07 |

| zastaph | Kernel 3.11 has proper power management for older ATI cards, which I depend on for my dell. My 13.04 is at kernel 3.8. How long do you think it takes for 3.11 to find its way into Ubuntu? or maybe I should just upgrade it manually? | 19:26 |
| lonewulf85 | Hey if I have to reinstall Ubuntu 12.04 and I have a seperate partition for /home would it erease my data on the /home partition? | 19:26 |
| dacs | howdy folks | 19:29 |
| bazhang | lonewulf85, you can direct the installer to leave it alone, | 19:29 |
| === travis is now known as Guest66912 | ||
| lonewulf85 | dazhang, Yes I did that and when it got to the part asking for my personal information the encrypted box was already checked and I could not uncheck it. I had chosen to encrypt with my first install, would this emply that it recignised the /home and is not going to change it? | 19:31 |
| dacs | so i was here earlier this morning, complaining about my 13.04 being very laggy when i am running Desktop | 19:33 |
| doomlord | is there/ can anyone recomend a grep gui tool, preferably with a minimal ui (trigger a search, not much visible in its window other than the search results) | 19:33 |
| dacs | any application i open take a bit then start showing at the desktop faded and comes focused slowly | 19:34 |

| mare | hmm, just noted the flashstick instructions are like 10 pages long. can't just copy to disk and then click???? | 19:34 |
| lonewulf85 | -Poisoned_Dragon-, Right I did that and where it would not allow me to uncheck the encrypt home folder that means that all is well right? I do have most of it backed up just incase but not having to replace the files would be great. | 19:34 |
| ikonia | mare: read the instructions, as it depends | 19:34 |
| mumpitze1 | doomlord: https://www.google.de/search?q=graphical+grep directly points to http://sourceforge.net/projects/grepgui/ | 19:34 |
| ikonia | mare: if it was that simple or didn't have catches it would be a one line instruction. | 19:35 |
| dacs | ikonia: how will i do that, i just installed a fresh copy of 13.04 before i was running 10.10 and it was working flawlessly | 19:35 |

| ikonia | why don't we find out hastings problem before throwing random information at him | 19:43 |

| Visievion | err ww. | 19:46 |
| ikonia | dacs: the easy way is to open a terminal, mess around in it, if it responds "ok" once the terminal is open, it's a fair guess to assume the machine is ok, and it's video response. | 19:46 |
| ikonia | dacs: do something like "ls -lR" in / | 19:46 |
| ikonia | dacs: make sure it responds "ok" | 19:46 |

| ikonia | hastings: I'd expect an intel card in that laptop | 19:47 |
| hastings | lotuspsyche: It's dual boot, and wifi works fine in the windows 8 operating system. is that the question you are asking? | 19:47 |
| OerHeks | i have seen issues win8/fastboot and wifi not usable in ubuntu. | 19:48 |

| TheDracle | Other windows seem unaffected. Is there something different with the Window Decoration plugin in 13.04? | 19:53 |
| Dr_Willis | TheDracle: run it from a terminal, look for error messages. is that the ONLY app that has the issue? | 19:53 |
| TheDracle | Dr_Willis, Yes. | 19:53 |
| Dr_Willis | TheDracle: is that a java app or anyother way unusual? | 19:53 |

| TheDracle | What desktop? You mean GTK/Unity? | 19:55 |
| ikonia | hastings: ok, so the good news is there is a device with a matching pci id for your wireless card | 19:55 |
| ronk | just tried gnome-shell. I can see why Canonical made Unity :P | 19:55 |
| TheDracle | I'm using the standard in 13.04. | 19:55 |
| TheDracle | And Unity3D | 19:55 |
| Dr_Willis | TheDracle: where did you get slickedit from? | 19:55 |
| TheDracle | Downloaded it from the Application providers website, it's not a standard repository application. | 19:56 |
| TheDracle | It's a commercial IDE. | 19:56 |

| ikonia | dacs: I do'nt think it does, as ubuntu forums are down | 20:10 |
| Dr_Willis | time for a test capture in cheese | 20:10 |
| dacs | ikonia: i know its down , but you still can use it , thats what i did | 20:11 |
| Dr_Willis | Hmm. Cheese is not previewing the audio for me in its capture. or when just showing the video capture preview. | 20:11 |
| holstein | dacs: so, you are using the driver that the forums suggest? the open one? that works 'out of the box' ? | 20:11 |
| Gheyboy_Advance | I'm gay | 20:11 |
| dacs | ikonia: in g00gle you just have to choose chaced version of the site | 20:11 |

| ubottu | Gheyboy_Advance: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! | 20:12 |
| dacs | Gheyboy_Advance: if thats your way , that is okay !!!! lol | 20:12 |
| ikonia | dacs: do you mean "google" ? | 20:12 |
| dacs | ikonia: no i am not using it yet, i was consulting with you | 20:12 |
| dacs | ikonia: yes sire | 20:12 |
| dacs | ikonia: opps i typed 00 lol | 20:13 |
| dacs | a bit of rum will make you do that | 20:13 |
| dacs | :S ..apologies @ ikonia | 20:13 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | Dr_Willis, try guvcview | 20:13 |
| dacs | holstein: not understanding your question ...sorry | 20:14 |
| holstein | dacs: you say the forums suggest the open driver, is that what you are using? | 20:14 |
| * dacs btw i have to kvm between this windows and my other box to get the info so excuse any delay please | 20:15 | |
| dacs | holstein: i have no clue which driver i am using , this is a fresh install as i mentioned earlier | 20:15 |
| holstein | dacs: the open driver is what would be running, out of the box, on a fresh install, assuming you havent made any changes | 20:16 |
| dacs | 'lsmod or what should i use to inform me | 20:16 |
| Dr_Willis | Poisoned_Dragon: heh - that one seems to core dump. | 20:16 |
| Dr_Willis | well seg faults | 20:16 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | ouch | 20:16 |
| dacs | holstein: how can i tell please | 20:16 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | I wonder why | 20:16 |
| holstein | dacs: as i said, if you didnt change it, thats what it is.. you can run "lspci -vv" in a terminal to confirm | 20:17 |
| Dr_Willis | Poisoned_Dragon: ;) scand and dosent find stuff.. init v4l2 failed. but it was working in other apps. | 20:17 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | how odd | 20:17 |
| hastings | I'm thinking I need to install iwlwifi (intel wireless drivers) but http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/iwlwifi mentioned changing the firmware. Will that stop windows from using the wireless? | 20:17 |
| ihre | dacs, lspci -nn | grep vga? | 20:17 |
| ihre | or rather, grep VGA | 20:18 |
| lotuspsychje | hastings: what you change on ubuntu wont affect your windows | 20:18 |
| holstein | hastings: intel should be supported by default.. windows is a dual boot with linux? of so, linux will use it when booted, and windows will use it when booted | 20:18 |

| jayman | hi guys, I'm trying to use my desktop that has an ENCORE electronics tv card to play with my ps3 because my TV died, I'm using the RCA cables for that but for the life of me I can't get any sound and the video comes out funny(like if it was on PAL/NTSC or viceversa) anyone has any clues of what I can do? | 20:19 |
| holstein | jayman: to "play with my ps3" ? | 20:20 |
| jayman | holstein, Playstation 3 | 20:20 |
| hastings | I do not have access to change router settings | 20:20 |
| holstein | jayman: sure.. what does that mean? | 20:20 |
| dacs | ihre: what it looks like, it turns out it was a bad idea to switch from 10.10 to 13.04 | 20:20 |
| holstein | jayman: you are tring to get a video card to accept an analog video/audio signal? | 20:20 |
| Dr_Willis | !10.10 | 20:20 |
| ihre | how come, dacs? | 20:20 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 10.10 (Maverick Meerkat) was the thirteenth release of Ubuntu. !End-Of-Life on April 10th, 2012, see http://ubottu.com/y/maverick for details. | 20:20 |
| jayman | holstein, a TV card, not a graphics card | 20:21 |
| dacs | ihre: it turns out the my ATI ES1000 is not supported anymore by linux | 20:21 |
| Dr_Willis | could alwyas test out the latest LTS if the latest has issues. | 20:21 |
| holstein | dacs: i would test 12.04 as Dr_Willis suggests | 20:22 |
| Poisoned_Dragon | Dr_Willis, can you use uvcdynctrl to access your device? | 20:22 |
| holstein | dacs: test it live | 20:22 |
| dacs | ihre: my desktop is lagging so bad | 20:22 |
| lotuspsychje | hastings: scroll few lines above that, the url about wireless N | 20:22 |
| holstein | dacs: also, you have not tried the proprietary driver AFAIK | 20:22 |
| holstein | dacs: you can also use something like xubuntu/xfce which might be "better" for that hardware, not requiring 3d, as unity does | 20:22 |
| dacs | holstein:how would i try that please | 20:22 |
| hastings | Lotus: I looked at that, when I tried the command it said that iwilwifi wasn't loaded | 20:23 |
| hastings | ikonia: I tried to follow the link's advice, but when I ran "sudo rmmod iwlwifi" it returned "Error: Module iwlwifi is not currently loaded" | 20:23 |
| jayman | I got the video working with mplayer so far, but it looks funny, I can't get the sound to work | 20:23 |
| holstein | dacs: i would download xubuntu 12.04 and try it live.. or refer to | 20:23 |
| holstein | !ati | dacs | 20:23 |
| ubottu | dacs: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto | 20:23 |
| dacs | when i start my box it say kubuntu | 20:24 |
| holstein | dacs: kde, or ubuntu both are heavy on the graphics, for older hardware | 20:24 |
| holstein | kde or unity* | 20:24 |
| ihre | dacs, have you tried the proprietary driver? http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/linux/Pages/radeon_linux.aspx | 20:25 |
| dacs | so i logged out and chose xbuntu and logged back in and it shows xfce and it is running nice | 20:26 |
| dacs | hmmm | 20:26 |
| holstein | dacs: xfce requires no 3d acceleration, which, in unity/kde could be helped with the driver folks keep mentioning | 20:27 |
| holstein | or, you can just use xfce | 20:27 |
| ihre | I'm reading the ATI ES1000 doesnt support 3d acceleration, so that might explain your problems, dacs | 20:28 |
| holstein | and, it likely *never* did.... you probably just used gnome2 in 10.10 | 20:28 |
| lotuspsychje | hastings: how about you try to boot a previous kernel from grub? | 20:29 |
| hastings | I'm new to linux, do you mean download an older version, put it on a usb and boot from the usb? | 20:32 |
| doomlord | is there an option to keep the menu visible - bbenefit is you can see the entry to aim for benefit , and less flickering | 20:32 |
| dacs | xfce it is then | 20:33 |
| dacs | thank you all for helping me | 20:34 |
| dacs | i really appreciate it | 20:34 |
| occ | i have a aspire s7 ultrabook with ubuntustudio, every half an hour or so it will crash and i wont be able to move the mouse -touchpad or wired mouse.... is this a common issue? | 20:35 |
| Dr_Willis | doomlord: not that ive ever noticed. You wouldent see the windows title then. - so its a trade off. | 20:39 |
| Dr_Willis | doomlord: askubuntu.com may have some tweaks on it however | 20:39 |
| === LDungeon is now known as Ldungeon | ||
| doomlord | window title - if i've got many windows open, they have their own titles. If its maximized, there would be space for both the title and the menu (if the title really was too long, eg a long pathname,i'd be happy to truncate) | 20:42 |
| doomlord | option would be nice :) | 20:43 |

| Anaxandridas | Hi, guys, easy question. How do I get a folder, or a document, on to the panel in Ubuntu? They don't seem to have an option for "add to panel" in their menu. Click dragging doesn't seem to work. | 20:46 |
| Dr_Willis | Anaxandridas: you could add an item to the 'quick lists' right click menu on the file manager icon perhaps. | 20:47 |
| Dr_Willis | I thought there used to be a default list there.. but im not seeing one now. | 20:48 |

| Anaxandridas | reisio, I can assure you I rightclick everything, when in doubt ;) Dr_Willis, it appears that that solution doesn't work for Cinnamon 1,4, but it was a very good solution, thank you :D | 20:51 |
| reisio | oh right you're using cinnamon | 20:52 |
| sirspazzolot | http://paste.ubuntu.com/5916090/ here's my boot info. any ideas why windows is booting to a black screen? /dev/sdb is my primary device and grub2 is my bootloader; ignore all legacy grub and partitions on /dev/sda. worth noting: start of paste says windows 8 installed stuff to the mbr of /dev/sda. could this be my problem? | 20:52 |
| reisio | thought the point of cinnamon was to be like GNOME 2... i.e. right clicking | 20:52 |

| reisio | Anaxandridas: what's on your panel right now? | 20:58 |
| occ | reisio, so how should i go about trying to fix it? i disabled all power saving stuff (set monitor to never sleep etc) | 20:58 |
| === toto_ is now known as electrototo | ||
| sirspazzolot | sgrong: any ideas? | 20:59 |
| tutubuntu | fuck | 20:59 |
| Anaxandridas | reisio, FF/Chrome, software center, terminal, and home folder--it treats the home folder like an app, not like a folder. | 21:00 |
| Anaxandridas | I do not know how to do the .desktop file link. | 21:00 |
| sirspazzolot | wait I just did it | 21:00 |
| sirspazzolot | bahaha | 21:00 |
| sirspazzolot | yeah, it was because of the mbr stuff on /dev/sda | 21:01 |
| reisio | Anaxandridas: run um... | 21:01 |
| reisio | Anaxandridas: egrep -ilr firefox ~/ | 21:01 |
| sgrong | sirspazzolot: not really... when you say that windows is booting to a black screen, you mean you can't even reach the windows boot options? | 21:01 |
| reisio | Anaxandridas: from a terminal | 21:01 |
| reisio | Anaxandridas: it might give you an example .desktop file for your Firefox item | 21:01 |
| reisio | Anaxandridas: which you can copy and replace the executable of... with nautilus path/of/choice or something | 21:01 |
| sirspazzolot | sgrong: messing around with some of the partitions in the grub entry would yield different options... one was a 'failed boot try recovering' thing so I figured it was a partition specification thing. and it turns out this was correct, I just point stuff to look at /dev/sda for bios | 21:02 |
| sirspazzolot | it boots | 21:02 |
| occ | anyone installed ubuntu on an aspire s3? | 21:02 |
| Anaxandridas | It gave me a whole bunch of crazy stuff that isn't making much sense... It mentions gdesklets, which I've already removed, even. Hmmm. Guess this isn't going to be easy. That's too bad, I found something Ubuntu DOES fail at. | 21:03 |
| occ | im thinking of getting one. ubuntu runs badly on my aspire s7, i heard it works well on the s3... but i want confirmation before i waste more money | 21:03 |
| poz | does anyone know how to change my dns server? | 21:03 |
| Dr_Willis | Anaxandridas: the dash has a recently used docs feature i thought. Im not clear on what you are trying to do exactly | 21:03 |
| poz | or fix it* | 21:03 |
| sirspazzolot | occ I ran ubuntu on my aspire from like six years ago | 21:03 |
| sirspazzolot | aspire 5735z | 21:04 |
| sirspazzolot | B) | 21:04 |
| occ | i see | 21:04 |
| Slart | poz: there is a file called /etc/resolv.conf that manages that.. that file might be overwritten by a dhcp-client as well so sometimes just editing might not be enough | 21:04 |
| Anaxandridas | Dr_Willis, I am simply trying to put a document on the panel, with all the apps. It does not offer "put on panel" in the menu for the document. Or for folders. Just for apps. | 21:04 |
| occ | and sirspaz you had no problems? | 21:04 |
| occ | like crashes or anything | 21:04 |
| Dr_Willis | Anaxandridas: you could make a link to it into your ~/Desktop file i guess. ive never needed a file so much that i would put it in the panel. If i used the file enough, it would be the #1 (or near th top) of the Dash list of files. | 21:05 |
| poz | what is a namesever? | 21:05 |
| reisio | server of names | 21:05 |
| poz | nameserver* | 21:05 |
| reisio | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Name_server | 21:06 |
| poz | i can not go to that becuase my internet is not working | 21:07 |
| Anaxandridas | Yes, dragging it on to the desktop is always an option--an option that I'm using right now. But I was really keen on getting it on the panel. Dr_Willis. | 21:07 |
| poz | i am thinking it could be about a dns problem | 21:07 |
| Anaxandridas | Poz, restart your computer :P | 21:07 |
| mdh | !restart | 21:07 |
| poz | lol | 21:07 |
| poz | but i just turned it on... | 21:07 |
| Anaxandridas | So restart it. | 21:07 |
| Anaxandridas | If it's on, it's not restarting. If YOU'RE on, YOU'RE not restarting. So restart it. | 21:08 |
| Slart | poz: a name server is the computer that translates www.google.com to it's ip-address.. something like 111.222.333.444 | 21:08 |

| poz | though* | 21:08 |
| Slart | poz: it shouldn't.. in a normal network setup | 21:08 |

| k3pl3r16 | so atthe top in the right hand corner do you see 2 arrows or a symbol like a wave | 21:16 |

| poz | lol if it worked then I would not have a problem | 21:18 |
| Anaxandridas | Poz, see, I told you to restart everything :P | 21:19 |
| poz | I cant restart the modem though. i am using it on my other computer | 21:19 |
| Anaxandridas | Step 1: Restart everything. Step 2: Reinstall everything. Simple :D | 21:19 |
| poz | reinstalling takes hours though | 21:19 |
| ka1vgm | poz: after you restart modem wait 5 minutes and restart router (if separate) and then your pc. | 21:19 |
| k3pl3r16 | poz can you ping the modem?? | 21:19 |
| poz | pinging the modem does not seem to work, but i forget what I set the ip or what ever at | 21:21 |
| poz | the router and modem are the same thing | 21:21 |
| k3pl3r16 | poz on th other comouter it should give you the default gateway this is the modem ip | 21:22 |
| k3pl3r16 | pos try pinging that | 21:22 |
| ihre | poz, cat /etc/resolv.conf | 21:22 |
| ihre | should have the address of a nameserver | 21:22 |

| malgorath | error: can't find command 'drivemap'. error: invalid EFI file path. | 21:42 |

| malgorath | jhutchins, was working fine before I installed ubuntu | 21:43 |
| genial2 | Greetings. I've run into a little issue here and need some advice: I'm running 5 ubuntu servers on an ESXi-machine, one of them is a pure NFS-machine serving my harddrives to all the other instances. One of them is a Plex server, serving media to my various devices. Now I've noticed that sometimes the CPU-usage on the NFS-machine will skyrocket for short amounts of time, usually in unison with the Plex-machine. I'm wondering what this ... | 21:43 |
| genial2 | ... could be a result of. Obviously Plex is requesting something that the NFS-box has a hard time loading, but it should only be a single media-file. Is harddrive-corruption/error a possibility here? | 21:43 |
| jhutchins | malgorath: Not sure how you did the grub install, grub _can_ cope with EFI just fine, but some people switch to BIOS mode, which won't work if Windows is expecting EFI. | 21:43 |
| jhutchins | malgorath: You may need to restore windows to get it back, look for windows documentation on how to repair the EFI. | 21:44 |
| jhutchins | malgorath: If you restore Windows, it will probably wipe out ubuntu, so you'll need to re-install, but read up on dealing with EFI and dual booting W8 first. | 21:44 |
| reisio | malgorath: try specifying the efi file path as at http://askubuntu.com/questions/211339/windows-8-wont-boot-after-installation-of-12-10 | 21:45 |
| jhutchins | reisio: Good find. | 21:45 |
| reisio | well the find was easy :p | 21:46 |
| reisio | I just don't trust grub's auto cfg maker | 21:46 |
| reisio | it may well say the same thing after explicitly specifying the .efi path | 21:46 |
| jhutchins | malgorath: Linux has been working with EFI since at least '07, but we're finding new ways to break it with Windows. | 21:46 |
| reisio | but then you'd know for sure it isn't there | 21:46 |

| Malgorath | holstein, this system came with no DVDs/CDs nor does it have a method to make a backup/recovery dvd | 22:09 |

| usr13 | Malgorath: Win7? | 22:09 |
| Malgorath | windows 8 | 22:09 |
| usr13 | Malgorath: Unfortunately, Win7 and Win8 require MS Windows install CD to reinstall the MS Windows boot loader. And when you call and ask for one, your vender will be more than happy to charge you about $30 | 22:11 |

| brian234 | Hi, I remember hearing about a command to create a folder that points to a network or internet location, but the OS thinks of it as a regular folder. What is this command called? | 23:14 |
| jrib | brian234: sshfs perhaps if you mean over ssh | 23:15 |
| brassmonkey | is there a newer project than libimobiledevice thats working to get ios devices to sync music? | 23:15 |
| crankygeek01 | T | 23:15 |

| Helpme1s | " im now online via windows 7 and i got ubuntu on dual boot | 23:16 |
| wilee-nilee | !Realtek | 23:17 |

| wilee-nilee | Helpme1s, ^^^^^ | 23:17 |
| ubuntivity | Hello everyone, I've performed 4 new updates today on my Ubuntu 12.04, but I noticed it became markedly slower to boot and load after entering my user password. What is exactly wrong? | 23:17 |
| Helpme1s | whats thats supposed to mean ? | 23:17 |
| wilee-nilee | Helpme1s, read the posts what do you see ubottu referencing? | 23:18 |
| Helpme1s | oh thank you very much | 23:19 |
| wilee-nilee | Helpme1s, I can be confusing if you have not been here or used to it ubottu is a bot. ;) | 23:19 |
| wilee-nilee | It rather then I heh | 23:20 |
| Helpme1s | wilee may i ask a question ? | 23:22 |
| wilee-nilee | ubuntivity, Not a normal occurrence so details are important for the channel. | 23:22 |
| lonewulf85 | Ubuntu Linux is now my new favorite OS. I <3 Ubuntu | 23:23 |
| === BadLarry is now known as BadLarry_ | ||
| ubuntivity | What are the useful details, wilee-nilee ? | 23:23 |
| bejker | hi | 23:23 |
| bejker | cane someone help me with alsarc? | 23:23 |
| Helpme1s | the link u gave me is about "rtl8187b" my lan card is rtl8139 | 23:24 |
| Helpme1s | how im going to update my driver with other model files ? | 23:24 |
| wilee-nilee | ubuntivity, cpu speed and ram, what was part of updates, any additional installs, the release your running. Basically what you have described should not be happening, is this a feeing or are you sure? | 23:24 |
| ubuntivity | CPU Speed: Core i3 2.20GHz, RAM: 4GB, don't remember the updates, though. Can I find them in a log or something? | 23:26 |
| wilee-nilee | ubuntivity, so what is the difference in speed, how long is the boot now? | 23:27 |
| wilee-nilee | bejker, The channel works with you stating your issues to start with. | 23:28 |
| ubuntivity | Didn't count the seconds, but something clear to notice is the loading of the login screen, usually it loads with my wallpaper instantly, but now I can see the violet background for more than a second until my regular wallpaper shows in the login screen.. | 23:29 |
| wilee-nilee | ubuntivity, When did you install? | 23:30 |
| lauratika | is it possible to use BitTorrent Sync to share files among different accounts on same pc in ubuntu 12.04?? | 23:31 |
| ubuntivity | Today, wilee-nilee. | 23:31 |
| ubuntivity | about 3 hours ago | 23:31 |
| ubuntivity | Wait, you mean when did I update or when did I install this version of Ubuntu? | 23:32 |
| wilee-nilee | 1 second is not markedly sounds normal so far honestly with more exacting measurement at least to me ubuntivity | 23:32 |
| wilee-nilee | without* | 23:32 |
| ubuntivity | I have this ubuntu installation for about 3 months | 23:32 |
| ubuntivity | There is other delay after I login, which is about 4 seconds with nothing but the wallpaper and the mouse (it wasn't that way before) | 23:33 |
| wilee-nilee | ubuntivity, Not sure, sorry. | 23:34 |
| ubuntivity | How can I find what were the last 4 updates? Where can I find the log (if any)? | 23:34 |
| tgm4883 | ubuntivity, /var/log/apt/history.log | 23:35 |
| lauratika | is there a bit torrent channel here | 23:36 |
| lauratika | sorry freenode? | 23:36 |
| wilee-nilee | lauratika, what irc app are you using, many have a channel search | 23:37 |
| lauratika | opera | 23:37 |
| Martijn-NL | wilee-nilee: I'm using xChat :-) | 23:38 |
| ubuntivity | Here are the latest updates that I suspect might cause my Ubuntu 12.04 to slow down: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5916579/ | 23:38 |
| wilee-nilee | lauratika, #bittorrent | 23:38 |
| ubuntivity | *might caused | 23:38 |
| Martijn-NL | lauratika: Use Ubuntu software centre to install xChat on your system.... | 23:38 |
| lauratika | Martijn-NL: no thanx opera works great... thanx wilee-nilee | 23:41 |
| lonewulf85 | ubuntivity, Please do not quote me but aside from the lightdm updates the other ones are sql updates which just to my knowledge help you computer communicate better on the INTERNET and with servers. Is it web browsing that is getting slow? | 23:42 |
| ubuntivity | No, lonewulf85. Web browsing is OK. So, what lightdm is used for? | 23:43 |
| Ben64 | !info lightdm | 23:44 |
| ubottu | lightdm (source: lightdm): Display Manager. In component main, is optional. Version 1.6.0-0ubuntu3 (raring), package size 99 kB, installed size 468 kB | 23:44 |
| ubuntivity | Then I suspect it might be the cause, does that make sense? | 23:44 |
| Ben64 | thats not very informative... "LightDM is a cross-desktop display manager that aims is to be the standard display manager for the X.org X server. The motivation for this project is there have been many new display managers written since XDM (often based on the XDM source). The main difference between these projects is in the GUIs (e.g. different toolkits) and performance - this could be better accomplished with a common display manager th | 23:44 |
| Ben64 | at allows these differences. " | 23:44 |
| Ben64 | from the lightdm website | 23:44 |
| lonewulf85 | ubuntivity, lightdm is just the desktop manager it could cause the issue but it is not very likely I do not think. | 23:45 |
| ubuntivity | Is there a way to downgrade that particular package? to see if the slowing behaviour change? | 23:46 |
| Ben64 | ubuntivity: if i had to guess, i would blame unity on it loading slow, maybe you're using unity3d and used to use 2d? | 23:46 |
| lonewulf85 | ubuntivity, are you in an actual install or is this a vmware installation? | 23:46 |
| dlaflamme | MLE | 23:46 |
| ubuntivity | Ben64: I've always used Unity3D, lonewulf85: It is an actual install. | 23:46 |
| jrib | ubuntivity: lightdm is a login manager | 23:46 |
| ubuntivity | jrib: That | 23:47 |
| ubuntivity | jrib: That's exactly what is slowing down here! (check my previous messages above) | 23:47 |
| lonewulf85 | ubuntivity, does the machine have a 32bit cpu or x64? | 23:47 |
| ubuntivity | an x64 processor (Core i3) but a x86 installation | 23:47 |
| jrib | ubuntivity: create a fresh new user, see if issue persists | 23:47 |
| Ben64 | once you put in the password, lightdm doesn't really do anything else but start the environment (unity) | 23:47 |
| ubuntivity | Going to do so jrib, Ben64: that's where the slowing occurs, once the environment is loaded, the speed is as I used to. | 23:48 |
| lonewulf85 | ubuntivity, I bring this up because my little acer netbook has an x64 processor and with the 32bit install it runs slow but with the 64 bit it is fine. | 23:48 |
| KeyboardNotFound | When ubuntu forums will back ? | 23:49 |
| jrib | KeyboardNotFound: try #ubuntuforums | 23:49 |
| ubuntivity | lonewulf85: I noticed this recent noticable slowing down today after I updated installed packages.. | 23:50 |
| KeyboardNotFound | jrib, Thanks, I will try | 23:50 |
| lonewulf85 | Also for anyone who might need it take a look at this http://www.upubuntu.com/2012/06/11-tips-to-speed-up-computers-running.html please use carefully some could be harmful if used incorrectly | 23:50 |
| lonewulf85 | ubuntivity, one sec I have an application that might help let me find the link. I use it a lot. | 23:51 |
| mr-tech | hello how are you | 23:52 |
| lonewulf85 | ubuntivity, The application is ubuntu tweak it is great because of the janitor feature. | 23:52 |
| itgeekwhisperer | good evening everyone | 23:52 |
| === k-lined is now known as lsmAvatar | ||
| ubuntivity | I already have it, so should I perform a 'clean up'? | 23:52 |
| mr-tech | Hello every one | 23:52 |
| ubuntivity | welcome mr-tech, itgeekwhisperer | 23:53 |
| lonewulf85 | ubuntivity, If you are familiar with Windows os application it would be comparable to ccleaner | 23:53 |
| === lsmAvatar is now known as DarkAceZ | ||
| ubuntivity | Didn't use ccleaner on Windows, and no more using Windows :| So, what does it do? | 23:54 |
| lonewulf85 | ubuntivity, I would try and see if that helps. I run the clean up after every set of updates FYI about once a week. | 23:54 |
| lonewulf85 | ubuntivity, It just frees up space an your system by cleaning up the caches filed. | 23:54 |
| mr-tech | This is my first time here | 23:54 |
| ubuntivity | I've once heard that clean ups might slow things down because they removed cached stuff and re-caching them takes time, is that true? or is there any truth in that at all?? | 23:55 |
| ubuntivity | mr-tech: I hope you'll have a nice and beneficial time here :) | 23:55 |
| lonewulf85 | ubuntivity, I am not sure it has not been my experience but everyones hardware is different. | 23:55 |
| mr-tech | ubuntivity do you run that though the termemal | 23:56 |
| ubuntivity | I'll perform the clean up as long as you are doing it safely ^_^ lonewulf85 | 23:56 |
| ubuntivity | mr-tech: What do you mean? the IRC client? | 23:57 |
| mr-tech | yes | 23:57 |
| xiudo | LOL mr-tech i like that name | 23:57 |
| xiudo | :D | 23:57 |
| mr-tech | thanks | 23:57 |
| lonewulf85 | ubuntivity, I have not had an issue because of it yet, although I did have to re install earlier today because of some line I messed up in a system file by accident ;) | 23:58 |
| ubuntivity | mr-tech: No, I'm running it now from Firefox browser through webchat.freenode.net, but I sometimes run it from terminal (I use weechat) | 23:58 |
| ubuntivity | lonewulf85: should I clean all the entries in that janitor? | 23:58 |
| lonewulf85 | ubuntivity, I usually save the most recent kernels. | 23:59 |
