[00:05] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CdDvd/Burning [00:05] To reuse a rewritable CD or DVD you first need to 'blank' the disk. This erases the old data and prepares the disk for new data. [00:05] wodim -vv dev=/dev/cdrw blank=all [00:05] I tried that [00:05] <^Mike> jrib: Thanks for the tip. Looks like another bashism is the word "function" [00:05] Can anyone help me please, after my laptod lid is opened the screen stays black with no response at all, it only happens when lid is closed and then opened [00:06] http://ubuntugenius.wordpress.com/2010/07/02/one-click-erase-of-cd-rw-dvd-rw-rewritable-discs-in-ubuntu/ [00:06] I trI did it [00:06] thank you and bye [00:07] humo0915, so if you close it and then never open it - it dosent stay black? or am i confused here as to that last bit. [00:11] Hello! [00:11] Hi === bazhang_ is now known as bazhang [00:12] sorry english is not my native language, What I meaned is that it doesnt happen when you leave the laptop open for a long time and it goes to sleep [00:12] One, second. Did my colour change? [00:12] Nope, it didn't.. [00:13] Oi [00:13] FUSRODAU [00:13] Atlantis, why would you think the color would change? [00:13] * curatrix grabs Atlantis by the arm and calls out "found you" [00:13] Becuause I thought I'd changed it in settings... [00:13] humo0915, so you mean to say the laptop 'crashes' when you close the lid - instead of suspending? [00:13] Atlantis, irc dosent really work that way [00:14] Okay.... [00:14] MY client uses the colors I tell it to. :) i dont see what you set. [00:14] * Dr_willis colors Atlantis hot puce. [00:14] curatrix... Ummm, hi! [00:15] my opt folder is missing after the latest update to ubuntu 12.04, anyone with this problem? [00:15] What is hot puce? [00:15] a light red color. would you perfer lime green? [00:16] majdi: Are you sure that you are looking in / ? [00:16] Maybe it's becuase I'm on Xchat (an aplication version) but I don't see a difference... [00:16] But, I like the light red! [00:16] Atlantis, im not even sure what you are expecting. Xchat has color themes and settings that you would see on your end. we dont see what colors you set your client to use [00:16] no problem dual booting? [00:17] allan_, err.. No. none here. [00:17] Okay... [00:17] Dr_willis windows 8 and ubuntu ? [00:17] have a problem? [00:17] allan_, i dont use windows 8 - others in here have done it befor. [00:18] @ curatrix, yes did a search, it gone, I've never experienced this before, very strange, but it broke some of my apps [00:18] Willis you speak portuguese? [00:18] majdi: To be honest. The first thing that comes to mind is a hardware failure (most likely in the HDD) [00:19] allan_, You read the uefi wiki? [00:19] Hello everyone! [00:19] sdfa\ [00:19] No [00:19] One second... [00:20] curatrix: everything else is running OK [00:20] !uefi | allan_ [00:20] allan_: 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 [00:20] I have no idea what I'm doing... [00:20] Thanks [00:20] allan_, I am assuming this is a oem W8 if so it is a uefi gpt setup [00:22] Hi all. How do I prevent drive device names from changing? If I reboot with phone plugged into USB, my external HD changes from /dev/sdb to /dev/sde. Can these be set to be permanent somehow? Thanks. [00:22] I'm speak portuguese =l [00:23] majdi: If you dont mind ....Can we double check that /opt is missing? Please open the file manager and click on file system on the left. [00:24] curatrix: done that, its not there [00:25] majdi: Does firefox/chromium work? [00:26] dalrog, they change. thats the reason that the uuid is normally used in /etc/fstab [00:27] dalrog, if the device/filesysem has a label it should auto mount to /media/whatever/label name and stay that way [00:27] curatrix: yes, I did a sudo find / -name 'opt' -type d, and got /var/opt, /etc/opt. but contents of these opt folders are different than my root opt or /opt folder [00:27] !uuid [00:27] To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID) [00:28] Hi, Does anybody know what is the difference between libreoffice and openofice? [00:28] *openoffice? [00:28] mojtaba, openoffice sort of got killed/ruined and became libreoffice [00:29] Dr_willis: the drives are mounted with truecrypt later so they don't have any mount points in fstab [00:29] Dr_willis: Thanks [00:29] mojtaba, personally I prefer LibreOffice. [00:29] mojtaba, LibreOffice is basically a fork of OpenOffice, from the original developers. [00:29] mojtaba, OpenOffice is now "owned" by the Apache Software Foundation. [00:31] curatrix: yes, both firefox and chrom work [00:32] majdi: Not many things use the /opt directory (google earth is one of the few). Is google earth installed? [00:34] curatrix: don’t have google earth installed, but I had prezi installed and its not working now, also had a samsung printer driver, both using the opt folder and they both not working now [00:35] I have made a backup using ubuntu's default backup system (deja du, or whatever), How can I ensure the backup has been made and is ok? [00:36] curatrix: not sure what has caused this? any way of finding out? can i see what the last backup did to my files? === FrankD2 is now known as FrankD [00:38] I have a question on keyboard configuration, if anyone is an expert on that [00:39] just ask the question and see who answers resultant_fierce . also check askubuntu.com [00:39] thanks. [00:39] majdi: opt is storage for software add-ons. I am guessing that the upgrade has wiped it to ensure that the system has no compatibility issues. If you backed up prior to the upgrade you should be able to retrieve the lost folder, but I dont think anything in there will work wth the new system. [00:40] i cant recall ever seeing or hearing of the apt package maanger touching stuff in /opt/ [00:40] its possible some other updates broke software that is in /opt/ but i wouldent think apt would remove anything from it. [00:41] majdi: It will require reinstalling prezi and anything you were using [00:41] Hello, ia there anyone online that can help me with a wireless adapter issue? [00:41] Dr_willis: Neither have I. Usually it is the opposite with linux ......you end up with a load of crud that cant be used [00:42] I'm running gnome shell, and I have the super key configured to launch the activities overview - by default. For emacs, I've reconfigured capslock to be the control. I'd like to use the right alt-key as the meta key. Under the keyboard options I can set up the alt keys to be meta - under "Alt and Meta are on alt-keys", but this doesn't work in a terminal window. If I attempt to hit alt+v for meta+v, I instead end up in the 'V [00:43] Does anyone know how to get the Belkin n600 wireless adapter to work with Ubuntu?

[00:47] Does anyone know how to get the Belkin n600 wireless adapter to work with Ubuntu? [00:50] majdi, not that i know of.. apt shouldent be removeing directories like that [00:51] Dr_willis: any way to check if it was deleted?

[01:01] wilee-nilee, install what ./install? if the tar extracts and makes a ~/theapp2.0/theappinstaller you would cd theapp2.0 then ./theappinstaller [01:01] majdi, i dont even know if fsck keeps a log. [01:01] majdi, if fsck moved stuff it would be in /lost+found [01:03] Dr_willis, There is a read, and it says ./install run as root, and there is a text called install, here is the web info, all a bit beyond my skills. http://www.firetrust.com/en/products/mailwasher-enterprise-server/support/linux-installation-instructions#installation [01:03] Dr_willis: nothing in /lost+found and nothing showing in /var/log/apt that might have caused this [01:03] wilee-nilee, so you just do a 'cd wheevertheinstallfileisat' then 'sudo ./install' [01:04] cd mwes-xxxx (replace xxx with the right numbers) then sudo ./install [01:05] Dr_willis: any way to detect if the fs is corrupted? [01:05] majdi, boot live cd, and run fsck on it would check it [01:06] Dr_willis: will do, thanks a lot [01:06] curatrix: thank you to [01:07] Dr_willis: can I just create the opt folder if no fix for this? [01:07] majdi: np. Sorry I couldnt have been more help. :) [01:07] majdi, reinstall your apps if you want to use them. i dont see what making a empty /opt/ directory will help. :) assuming cd /opt/ shows its truely not there.

Interesting program by the way :) [02:22] varunendra, ah i see, that makes it a little harder [02:23] OerHeks, I just glanced at my IRC client, but can't they just use "apt-get install --print-uris ppa-purge" to get the manual download links to the required packages?

Please instruct me. === Guest97788 is now known as CrucialHead [02:25] I am very new to ubuntu and it's very unlike like windows. [02:25] OerHeks, just curious, does this program also has the option to re-enable the PPAs? [02:26] as alternative solution, disable that ppa in software sources, just unmark, not remove, and run sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade # and then install ppa-purge [02:26] I would have them run a apt-get update a broken package maybe === DarkAce-Z is now known as DarkAceZ [02:27] renenable the ppaś again, and you can fully remove, but hey, that ppa had never packages, so i think removing the list only works too [02:27] ppa packages do not survive upgrade, afaik [02:27] Yeah.

I'm #ubuntu's favorite infobot, you can search my brain yourself at http://ubottu.com/factoids.cgi | Usage info: http://ubottu.com/devel/wiki/Plugins | Bot channels and general info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Bots [02:44] amyassin: the most annoying bot ever [02:44] lol [02:44] wilee-nilee, Okay [02:44] yerp [02:44] lol cool [02:44] reisio: im a linux noob i dont really know how to find that out :) [02:45] Dr_willis: so i should just ignore it [02:45] HypnotiX, is the tool failing to work? or just spitting out a message and going on? === dacs_ is now known as dacs [02:46] ubottu: prove to the channel that you are annoying [02:46] reisio: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [02:46] thanks pal [02:46] Is there a channel for ubuntu edge discussion? [02:46] Dr_willis: i will findout right now :) [02:47] Woofcat: it's -touch I believe [02:47] !edge [02:47] Information about the Ubuntu Touch platform for Phone and Tablet is available here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch support and discussion in #ubuntu-touch [02:47] wilee-nilee, http://imagebin.org/265856 [02:47] Woofcat: /msg alis list *buntu* [02:47] here is the screenshot of the first file. [02:47] Thanks reisio [02:48] so is 13.04 stable enough yet? [02:48] danny4way, Cool if they both have the # and you are still getting those errors on a update we can see if you have those PPA's in the regular sources.list [02:48] HypnotiX, depends on the details.. stable enough for what? i have no issues with 13.04 [02:49] Wait. No [02:49] Only first file has # in the front [02:49] Second file which ends with .save doesn't have # in the front. [02:49] well for example i installed 12.04 yesterday and my video drivers werent working properly, my max resolution was set to 1024 [02:49] video card/driver issues can be very dependent on the exact version of the drivers, and kernel. and xorg. [02:49] danny4way, Cool put the # in the other hit save close all that the terminal last and run the sudo apt-get update and look for errors. [02:49] And When i tried to add # in the front, it says save as, So I tried but it says its read only [02:50] danny4way, You opened both from the same pathway [02:51] danny4way, Ah one is a save, I would just send both to trash, very small data no biggie. [02:51] But I can't save it now. The other one that ends with .save, when i try to save with # in the front, it tells me to replace it. [02:51] Dr_willis: the installer doesnt seem to be moving, it says removing conflicting operating system files and no progress [02:52] HypnotiX, i rarely upgrade. i find clean installs faster these days [02:52] And when i click on replace, it says "Could not save the file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/...ns-extra-raring.list.save. [02:52] alright ill try that [02:52] And it says under that "You do not have the permissions necessary to save the file. Please check that you typed the location correctly and try again. [02:53] danny4way, Just close that text with no save and right click both and send to trash, close the folder and the popup then the terminal and open another and run sudo apt-get update [02:53] wilee-nilee, you want me to send both of those files into trash? [02:53] danny4way, Yes. [02:53] root trash no biggie they are tiny [02:53] Oh okay. I will try it. [02:54] not the most elegant fix, but in this circumstance it works. [02:54] It won't let me send to trash [02:54] Well installing Mir has magically made my system super slow [02:55] either that or the keyboard [02:55] hai === speed is now known as Guest43633 [02:55] danny4way, So if you close al that and then the terminal and run a update again in a new terminal see if you still see the errors on that ppa. [02:56] savagejen, Had to be a PPA and not supported [02:56] Know a tiny browser that supports flash and javascript? [02:56] and i mean tiny. [02:56] a tiny browser to run huge bloated flash. ;) [02:57] midori perhaps. [02:57] Hey guys, I need to know the group name for mounting devices such as usbs, cds, dvds, etc. My user can't mount stuff normally [02:57] Final sentence says "reading package lists ... Done [02:57] It seems like it's okay now. === Guest43633 is now known as speedrunnerG55 [02:57] wilee-nilee, I used this guide [02:57] http://unity.ubuntu.com/mir/ [02:58] mir is very much in testing. im not suprised it would be slow. [02:58] danny4way, Cool, it was hard to tell from here if you had shut off the ppa in another place, at least for me with so many posts. [02:59] danny4way, The last update you showed showed those still there. [02:59] I really don't understand what caused this. [02:59] And it's not working again. [02:59] danny4way, post all the text in a pastebin [03:00] wilee-nilee, and post cat /etc/apt/sources.list as well. [03:00] is there a simple usenet app for pure text, no GUI? [03:00] http://paste.ubuntu.com/5923904/ [03:01] I actually want to run this command. http://paste.ubuntu.com/5923906/ [03:02] But whenever I try to run sudo apt-get update, it just start to show http://paste.ubuntu.com/5923904 error [03:02] danny4way, You running 13.04? [03:02] Yep [03:02] danny4way, There is no release in that ppa for raring [03:03] Meaning? [03:03] Those following commands aren't compatible with 13.04 yet? [03:03] danny4way, raring is 13.04 there is nothing in that ppa for raring only up to 12.04. [03:04] Is there any safe way to work with NTFS? NTFS-3G messed up my FS last time. [03:04] danny4way, Not commands but packages. [03:04] Yeah. So they aren't just compatible yet. [03:04] So if i want to work with other packages, it will sure work. Right? [03:04] danny4way, I thought you were just trying to get rid of the ppa. [03:05] No. I was actually trying to use following commands [03:05] But whenver I use sudo apt-get update, it get stuck with errors. [03:05] danny4way, Can't guarantee anything PPA's are considered unstable and basically not supported. [03:05] Hello all... was looking for some help with ubuntu server 13.04 and installing an app called owncloud === dani is now known as Guest16915 [03:06] Oh and it's not working again. [03:06] I did this using apt-get but it didn't create any databases [03:06] It was working the first time I tried sudo apt-get update [03:06] danny4way, You keep making rookie mistakes. Never add a ppa unless you check that bthere are packages that support your release. [03:06] NOw it shows the same thing as before. [03:06] ciao [03:06] I don't know if when you install with apt-get it uses sqlite or if the software doesn't use a db [03:07] danny4way, That PPA never worked. [03:07] Sorry. I dont know. Because I was a windows user [03:07] in 13.04 [03:07] ciao!list [03:07] or maybe I have to install a db myself and somehow links that with the owncloud installation [03:07] any ideas? [03:07] danny4way, No biggie, you turned off that ppa before how did you do it? [03:08] hi. if u install chrome on ubuntu lts, does it include pdf viewer and pepper flash [03:08] ?? [03:08] LIke going to software setting then remove that package? === Xiti` is now known as Xiti [03:08] alright, does anyone know how to disable mir once you've enabled it? [03:08] I just did and it's still loading. [03:08] can someone please help me??? [03:08] the page comes up ok and the recommended installation was with apt-get but I cannot figure out if the software needs a db or not? [03:08] Yeah. It's working now. [03:08] mrdeb, flash yes a pdf reader not sure. [03:08] I am trying to burn an audio cd but k3b keeps crashing everytime I try to add the music I want, when I attempt to run a back trace this is what it says "Application: K3b (k3b), signal: Segmentation fault" [03:09] forums still down eh? I was hoping for a more detailed explanation as to what happened. Does anyone happen to have any info or links? [03:09] ok wilee-nilee , so can i delete firefox and put chrome on [03:09] It was working fine about a week ago, but now it keeps crashing, please help!!! [03:09] Thank you. So yeah. How do i check if the package is supported for my release? [03:09] hola [03:09] mrdeb, I would leave firefox one never knows, and install chrome if you want. [03:09] hello [03:09] Does anyone know the group name for mounting devices such as usbs, cds, dvds, etc. My user can't mount stuff normally [03:09] is this the preferred way to make a directory read-only, " mount --bind /foo /foo-share; mount -o remount,ro /foo-freerdp-share" [03:09] RaveYoda: plugdev ? [03:09] Hello. I know a partition dumped with dd can be mounted, but can it be resized? [03:10] And how do I add a user to this? [03:11] can someone please, with what app, i can play games on linux besides wine and playonlinux? thanks [03:11] zeest, i belive it can. [03:11] Dr_willis: do you know how? [03:11] casshern, play native linux games.. [03:11] just type sudo usermod -a -G plugdev userName? [03:11] Hi, I have a little problem with movie and music. For the song, there are a little white every seconds and for the film, screen is black. I use VLC and my PC is a Eee PC 1101ha. I had try to install different codecs but I dosen't work... (I'm french) [03:12] zeest, resizefs, gparted, parted perhaps. Ive never really needed to do so. [03:12] RaveYoda: yes [03:12] Does anyone know which package installs the calendar/time panel thing for Gnome-shell? [03:12] RaveYoda: they will need to logout/in to effect the change [03:12] gotcha, thx somsip mate [03:12] @Dr_willis i want install some games i buy for when i have win 7 [03:13] casshern, then you will most likely want to use wine or play-on-linux [03:13] RaveYoda: np [03:13] Az3rty: white noise? [03:13] play-on-linux is a fancy thing for wine basically. [03:13] s/fancy// [03:14] @reisio : Yes [03:14] i read long time ago that exist other app for this purpose [03:14] playonlinux is a real dandy [03:14] you really dont need to use @ on irc.. this isent twitter. [03:14] casshern, they are most likely other front ends to wine, or some wine variant [03:15] Dr_willis, amen brother [03:15] ok, thanks everyone... [03:15] casshern, there are also native games [03:15] casshern, check the wine app database to see if the games you want to run are supported at all. [03:15] thanks also i been check steam for games === dude is now known as Guest91922 [03:16] steam now has a native linux client and a great many games. [03:16] im new with linux [03:16] !steam [03:16] Valve have officially announced that they are developing Steam and are working with !ubuntu during their development, see http://blogs.valvesoftware.com/linux/steamd-penguins/ for further details, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Valve for install instructions, you can also join #ubuntu-steam for discussion. [03:17] Of course tehres hundreds of free/open sourced games out with native linux versions [03:17] one of my steam games doesn't work but i can't be bothered to figure out the reason [03:17] Dr_willis thank you [03:18] so i take it nobody has any info on the forum hack? [03:18] hal14450, It is all on the splash, what is known that can be shared. [03:19] little bit disappointed with ubuntu [03:19] 12.04 [03:19] too many errors [03:19] Ubuntu 12.04 LTS how stable it is? [03:19] anything that I install I get an error [03:19] wilee-nilee, so no details at then... [03:19] hal14450, It is all on the splash, what is known that can be shared. lol [03:19] no I'm not a bot [03:19] ... [03:19] Nobody ? [03:20] i got the 'lol' [03:20] Hey guys, im having some problem with my wifi. Im on xubuntu 13.04. Im always disconnected when downloading something. Steam, torents and even downloading files trhogh the browser. My chip set is RLT8187. I tried to look on the foruns of ubuntu but it is offline [03:20] i'm using 12.04 since yesterday and install meany programs without error [03:20] hal14450, which of your steam games aren't working? One of Valve's [03:20] hal14450, Not really a matter of discussion here is all. [03:20] Hi, any info about this bug? : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1165433 [03:20] Ubuntu bug 1165433 in linux (Ubuntu) "Kernel 3.8.x panics on bluetooth DUN disconnect" [High,Confirmed] [03:20] Any way I can really work around this? [03:20] Kitt3n, i got it from steam but it's not a valve title [03:20] ,Mestre-Splinter : Have you a other PC connect by wifi in your box ? [03:21] hal14450, Ah, okay. [03:21] jesuse, Why are you using it if disappointed, and what makes you think we care what you use. [03:21] guzzlefry: isn't it just a bunch of js files in gnome-shell-common? dateMenu.js calendar.js, etc [03:21] Az3rty, yeah, my girlfriend laptop works fine [03:21] Kitt3n, i can't recall the name and it's on a different box than my current one [03:22] trism: Haven't a clue. [03:22] if you install gnome3 on unity, delete Unity? or i can return if i want? [03:22] Will there be a problem if i installed ubuntu without a swap partition ? [03:22] casshern, unity run ontop of gnome 3 [03:22] HypnotiX, if you run out of ram yes [03:23] should i create one now ? [03:23] you could [03:23] casshern, Do you mean the gnome 3 desktop known as the gnome-shell here or the fallback [03:23] Mestre-Splinter : It's very strange, I had this problem but for all PC and I have changing my box. But in your case... [03:23] i didnt create one when i installed because it kept giving me errors because of it :) [03:24] HypnotiX, what errors? [03:24] couldent mount swap at scsi 0,0,0 [03:25] wille-nilee i mean the desktop you install with this command [03:25] sudo apt-get install gnome-shell [03:25] HypnotiX, You encrypted? [03:25] no [03:25] you could use a swap file [03:25] i just tried to install linux next to windows :) [03:25] Az3rty, in my case im screwd? hahha [03:25] question on avconv of ffmpeg, how would I convert flac to alac (mp4) ? I keep getting errors like "utomatic encoder selection failed for output stream #0:0. Default encoder for format ipod is probably disabled. Please choose an encoder manually." [03:25] i use a partition myself but i have a friend that uses a file [03:25] casshern, I see, I would not mess with removing unity it is very small just a plugin in compiz running on top of gnome 3. [03:26] !swap [03:26] swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info [03:26] HypnotiX, Did you install from windows a wubi? [03:26] wilee-nilee ok [03:26] yes [03:27] HypnotiX, Ah that was the most important bit of info here, no swap is made, you have a file in windows no partition. [03:27] wilee-nilee i just wanna try that desktop anyway! XD [03:28] casshern, Cool I use the shell I like it. [03:28] wilee-nilee: so what does that mean for me :) [03:28] I tried recompiling vim but its not using the right binary: http://pastie.org/8185344 [03:28] HypnotiX, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq#How_do_I_add_more_swap.3F [03:29] HypnotiX, A problematic install not supported anymore basically with only one user I have seen with any expertise, other than that it is ubuntu. [03:29] yuck wubi [03:29] OK, I added my user to both plugdev and disk droups yet my system refuses to mount the drive automatically. [03:29] well i installed linux on its own partition [03:30] Hyperbyte, Not from windows other than a file in a ntfs. [03:30] i created an ext4 and installed it on that [03:30] wubi is a pretend install [03:30] HypnotiX, NOt from windows. [03:30] yeah [03:30] This is a fresh install of Ubu 12:04 where I added only the pkgs I wanted after the base system was installed. [03:30] i think i didnt understand your previous question :) [03:31] HypnotiX, Well if you did you might take up miracles because you just performed one. [03:31] is there an easy way to replace openjdk with oracle jdk [03:31] i did boot linux and installed it from an usb stick [03:31] RaveYoda, lsusb sees the device? [03:31] My file manager is SpaceFM [03:31] what does dmesg have to say? [03:31] HypnotiX, Ah now a usb stick install I see. ;) [03:32] hal14450, It does [03:32] Dr_willis: none of those seem to recognize the partition [03:33] I can of course mont it through sudo mount /dev/sdb1 but that's uber tedious and certain programs don't like this COUGH Multisystem [03:34] hi... i decided that i don't need so much swap space. how can i resize the swap to make it less, and put that space into the root partition? [03:34] user@laptop:~$ groups [03:34] adm cdrom sudo dip plugdev lpadmin sambashare jupiter [03:34] swap partition must be the twice of your ram [03:34] RaveYoda, if that helps i run 12.04 here [03:34] haha stats for nerds :) [03:35] awesome [03:35] casshern, that's a waste really [03:35] modern computers have enough RAM to never need swap space [03:35] i have 750MB ram and 1GB swap [03:35] casshern, that's not true. [03:35] but the swap is completely unused ! [03:35] i disable mine with sudo swapoff -a [03:35] i checked with the command - free [03:36] hal14450, I have all of those but Jupitor [03:36] RaveYoda, yeah that's a laptop specific app for controlling junk i should have ditched ages ago [03:36] nothing to do with mounts [03:36] its not like windows? LOL [03:37] casshern, not even remotely like it [03:37] hal14450, Oh...well...I've got all of them plus the Disk group [03:37] what are some memory intensive things to do? i want to push the ram as much as possible, to see if it still uses swap. i have Firefox, IPython Notebook, Gimp all open together at the same time now [03:37] hal14450, excluding Jupiter [03:38] flick: compile pypy :p [03:38] RaveYoda, what DE are you suing? [03:38] using even [03:38] hal14450, Sorry, DE? [03:38] cool... while compiling, how do i check the peak memory usage? [03:38] Desktop Environment [03:38] minecraft is very memory intensive [03:38] flick, open a few hundred graphics files with GIMP [03:38] flick: use minecraft to max out [03:38] that'll do it [03:39] ok i will get minecraft [03:39] mem[Physical: 3.8GB, 73.5% free - Swap: 3.7GB, 99.2% free] [03:39] hal14450, As in the disk/usb drive? It's a WD drive [03:40] no i mean Unity/KDE/? [03:40] there is no minecraft, but something called minetest in synaptic. it says it is inspired by minecraft. will that do? [03:40] hal14450, OHHHH Openbox [03:40] I'm not sure [03:40] nice nick, lol [03:40] I'm not fimiliar with minetest [03:40] flick, Minetest is in no way as intensive as Minecraft [03:41] run minetest 200 times! ;) [03:41] RaveYoda, haha yeah so i'd guess running that minimal environment means you'll have to script automount [03:41] minecraft.net [03:41] to get minecraft [03:41] !info autofs [03:41] autofs (source: autofs): kernel-based automounter for Linux. In component main, is extra. Version 5.0.7-3ubuntu1 (raring), package size 647 kB, installed size 1491 kB [03:42] hal14450, But my current desktop is automounting fine? [03:42] hal14450, It's my laptop that isn't [03:42] RaveYoda, fucked if i know man [03:42] flick: is this you're primary machine that has 768mb of ram? [03:42] i pretty much mount everything that matters manually anyway [03:43] theres several desktop services that auto mount things. what desktop/wm are you using RaveYoda ? [03:43] hal14450, T.T Damn....That sucks, thx though [03:43] sometimes i install something which installs dependencies. when i uninstall it, the dependencies remain - how do i remove these packages which are no longer needed? [03:43] sshfs is my favorite thing [03:43] DimBulb, nope - the primary machine has more ram [03:43] flick, try 'sudo apt-get auto-remove' perhaps? [03:43] Dr_willis, I'm using Openbox with the RazorQT Panel [03:43] flick, "sudo apt-get autoremove" will clean the system of unneeded packages [03:44] RaveYoda, then you dont have the auto mounting services from gnome running, (or whatever qt/kde equilivent they are) would be my guess [03:44] I am setting up a server for KVM virtualization (with LVMs) and I got 6 x 2TB drives and an LSI 9260 8i RAID controller. I get more space with RAID 50, however I am wondering what the performance penalty is vs. RAID 10? Can anyone help me with this please? Thank you. [03:44] oh cool thanks! [03:44] RaveYoda, theres some auto-mounter assistant tools int he repos i recall. that basically show a button to mount/unmount things if you dont want to install a larger automounting system. [03:45] Dr_willis, My File manager is SpaceFM. I've done a base install with Ubu 12:04 and added all pkges I wanted [03:45] RaveYoda, so you need to decide how badly you want things to auto mount - and install the needed tools or not.. [03:45] Dr_willis, The RazorQT Panel has such a button [03:45] ^ [03:46] RaveYoda, my fm is mc lol [03:46] Dr_willis, It's the permission system that's messing me up [03:46] RaveYoda, depends on the fs you are mounting, as to what you need to do, to get what permissions/ownership. [03:46] hal14450, MC? MuCommander? [03:47] !info mc [03:47] mc (source: mc): Midnight Commander - a powerful file manager. In component universe, is optional. Version 3:4.8.3-10 (raring), package size 422 kB, installed size 1312 kB [03:47] i like rox-filer also. ;) as an alternative file manager [03:47] ^^^ what ubottu said [03:47] rsync is fun too [03:48] Dr_willis, Ohhh, duuhhh me. XD MuCommander is much like it but based with Java scripts and QT themes [03:48] mc is a classic, used it for about a decade, prob longer [03:48] mc has so many features and extras, ive used it for years.. and havent touched on 10% of them [03:48] hal14450, You should check out SpaceFM. [03:48] hal14450, =P [03:48] dual pane file managers. ;) gotta love the classics [03:49] Dr_willis, the fs is NTFS on the external drive btw [03:49] eaxxae, glad to see i'm in good company =D RaveYoda I'll always be a cli junkie [03:49] runs in an ssh session too, GUI file managers are bloated.. ;) [03:49] slow way to get around, indeed [03:50] RaveYoda, then you will want to look into the ntfs-3g options for getting it mounted how you want. there was a ntfs-config tool on normal ubuntu that could auto-make a ntfs-3g entry in /etc/fstab for them. but that may pull in more then what you want [03:50] eaxxae, screen has at least two instances running all the time [03:50] /usr/lib64/misc/xscreensaver/apple2 -text -fast -program bash :) [03:50] hal14450, Errr welll. SpFM isn't persay cli.... But it's still veerrryyy light compared to Nautilus in my humble opinion [03:50] that's my new fm [03:50] gnu-screen that is [03:50] RaveYoda, also rember if the ntfs, or vfat fs were 'unmounted uncleanly' from windows, linux may refuse to mount them [03:51] Dr_willis, I have ntfs-3g installed already? So just get the automounter script for it? [03:51] RaveYoda, i'm very set in my ways i have the same time invested as eaxxae in using a cli manager for files [03:51] can someone tell me how to access the settings on pidgin, sry if its a dumb question :) [03:52] I dont know what you have installed RaveYoda :) (you are asking me?) you can make a generic fstab entry for the various ntfs drives if you wanted and just mount them as needed. [03:52] hal14450, I'm working my way to cli. I just like the point and click for running files too much [03:53] RaveYoda, use what suits you don't try to conform to a cli fm if that's not what you like [03:53] i'm content using what i've used for ages because i know it and like it [03:54] mc has so many features and is so handy to use over ssh.. its a must learn about tool. ;) [03:54] it is exceptionally handy Dr_willis [03:54] but slower than rsync [03:54] i also find mcedit easier to use then most of the 'suggested' beginner text editors [03:55] hal14450, Totally bro, but one day it'll all be cli. I LOOOVVEEE LITE RESOURCE Systems. Hence my ubu base system with a completly diffrent software selection [03:55] sshfs speeds it up because it doesn't use fish then === vigs is now known as jim [03:55] RaveYoda, familiar with screen or tmux yet? === jim is now known as pcperini [03:55] those are must have apps for the cli [03:56] pick one [03:56] they don't mix well [03:56] !info byobu [03:56] Dr_willis, I can't get the launch scripts for programs right is all really. Once I knew how to get MC to launch programs i'd use it in a heart beat [03:56] byobu (source: byobu): powerful, text based window manager and shell multiplexer. In component main, is optional. Version 5.35-0ubuntu1 (raring), package size 93 kB, installed size 543 kB [03:56] . [03:56] RaveYoda, i dont really see the point in using mc to launch programs.. [03:56] hal14450, Not heard of 'em? I'll look up [03:57] RaveYoda, you just find the executable and hit enter on it in mc.. and it launches it.. [03:57] RaveYoda, Dr_willis mentioned one too [03:57] mc is a FILE MANAGER, not an app-launcher. but it can for example launch your video player when you select a video file. [03:57] Dr_willis, I can't ever find the exacutables [03:57] RaveYoda, this is why you just use the shell and type their names :) no need to find them [03:58] RaveYoda, and mc lets you do that from within mc. [03:58] since mc has a shell built in at the bottom === pcperini is now known as rrrrrrrix [03:59] I am curious why opening a large text file with gedit takes so long. just now I tried to open an 80mb text file and its still not unfrozen (been about 2.5 minutes), yet when I try ot load something like chrome which uses like 10 times that amount of ram, it takes maybe 30 seconds max to load up. === rrrrrrrix is now known as vigs [04:00] Dr_willis, and hall Well, for instance, i type vlc fileName and it never runs through the fm. === vigs is now known as rrix [04:00] Pinkamena_D, because it's a gui app but honestly it shouldn't really take that long === sarcasticsimba is now known as vigs [04:00] try viewing in a pager like less [04:01] ok, but I hope it doe snot force me to lose work that was open in other tabs [04:01] q to quit less [04:02] still slowely alternating between that "darkened" start and "light" (but still not responding [04:02] / hal14450, I'm liking tmux. Seems handy [04:02] you went with the one i don't use lol [04:02] i prefer screen [04:03] Pinkamena_D, is it a network attached file or a local one? [04:03] local [04:03] hmm [04:03] its just a dump from an old access 2 database [04:04] do you guys remember the movie die hard 4? what kind of chat is using the hacker "justin long" and OS [04:04] do you need to edit it or just read it? [04:04] Is there a website tracking the Ubuntu edge income rates and progress? Something to get a better idea of if its going to make it [04:04] hal14450, and Dr_willis Does the file manager potentialy need permission to mount devices? Or is this handled through the groups? [04:04] I was trying to get the schema, [04:04] hal14450: screenshot? [04:04] erm [04:04] casshern: screenshot? [04:04] wait... [04:05] RaveYoda, it can be handled by groups, or fstab options [04:05] How do I troubleshoot a consistently failing boot of Ubuntu? [04:06] kunji, fails as in how? [04:06] kunji: boot in single user mode [04:07] Dr_willis, ok, wait, what if fstab and or mtab don't see the device? [04:07] kunji, so no kernel gets loaded? [04:07] reisio here the screenshot http://nmap.org/movies/diehard4/nmap-diehard4-1080p-1920x801.png [04:08] Dr_willis, Because if i just type mount /dev/sdb2 it says can't find /dev/sdb2 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab [04:08] hal14450: A complete freeze during the Plymouth? screen, that purple loading screen. It does this unless the machine was powered off with the power button (as opposed to an OS shutting down the system). On the next boot it wants to do a bug report involving Xorg, but I'm not sure how to see what it wanted to report exactly. [04:08] ctrl+alt+F1 do anything? [04:09] hal14450: nope [04:09] Dr_willis, And sense i'm in the correct groups mount /dev/sdb2 should work [04:09] casshern: that is a contrived UI [04:10] kunji, it's been a while but i'd try booting to a usb and then changing it to boot to txt then check the xorg logs [04:10] casshern: it might even be all post processed [04:10] can't recall how to do that offhand [04:10] casshern: I'll check my copy and tell you [04:10] ok thanks [04:11] haven't used it so i 'losed' it [04:11] and its not necessary [04:12] casshern: oh yes it is! [04:12] but if you want an "irc" client like that, just use pidgin [04:12] hal14450: I can get it to boot and I can check the logs, when I say consistent I mean it always does it after being shut down properly, I can just power it off via the power button and boot and it will boot up fine. I didn't notice anything weird in the xorg logs previously, is there something they use to indicate errors as opposed to normal logs that I can grep for, ERR or something? [04:12] reisio, that actually looks a bit like fluxbox and conky [04:12] reisio XD [04:13] yeah it's a window manager, with decorations [04:13] and the "chat" part is just lines of text, with an avatar [04:13] reisio i have installed [04:13] hal14450: I have actually found some errors regarding AHCI though, not sure if they're superfluous or not. [04:13] 'cause why have a realistic nmap output on one side AND a realistic something else on the other side? [04:13] realistic + nonsense, YAY [04:14] Hollywood... [04:14] how do i make sure apache is working on my server? [04:14] kunji, grep "EE" /var/log/Xorg0.log <--- something like that for the path [04:14] RaveYoda, you can use the user/users option in fstab and then a user can mount/unmount sdb2 [04:14] apache status is good, its running, but not showing [04:15] kunji, use tab for completion on the path [04:15] Shadowandlight, lsof -i|grep apache [04:16] hal14450: That's the right path, here is all it gets that looks even remotely useful for this: (WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown. [04:16] kunji, so no errors on the xorg log [04:16] Dr_willis, OK, Uhhhhhh... how may I go about this? [04:17] hello. i cant run skype and get memory overload. can anybody help me with this? [04:17] hal14450: Well, looks like there's more in the Xorg.1.log [04:17] !fstab | RaveYoda [04:17] RaveYoda: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions [04:17] kunji, there will be more but it might not have any errors [04:17] RaveYoda, the ntfs-3g homepage gives numerous example fstab entries for ntfs filesystems [04:17] hal14450: [ 74.218] Initializing built-in extension MIT-SCREEN-SAVER [04:17] [ 75.336] (EE) fglrx(0): Output LVDS enabled but has no modes [04:17] [ 75.336] (EE) fglrx(0): Display Infrastructure Failed [04:17] [ 75.336] (EE) fglrx(0): PreInit failed [04:17] [ 75.403] (EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration.

[04:18] Yeah, didn't realize it was going to be that long, looked short in terminal [04:18] Alright, thx Dr_willis [04:18] it always does ;) [04:19] so kunji this sort of sounds like a not waking up from screensaver issue more than anything else [04:20] hibernate much? [04:20] anyone has more info of what happened to ubuntu forums? [04:20] hal14450: Actually isn't the number in that log file the display though? In which case the Xorg.1.log file is probably ancient and irrelevant here. [04:20] hal14450: nah, no hibernating, no screensaver, not even turning the screen off [04:21] amyassin, it was space aliens! :) actually im sure there will be some big blog postings on it when its all said and done.. and they are sure they got it fixed [04:21] amyassin, sadly that's the reason i joined tonight and nobody has said anything other than what's on the placeholder is all we have [04:21] amyassin, that's public... [04:22] hopefully all these other places that use the same forum software will lock things down [04:22] kunji, the logs say otherwise [04:22] from you posted [04:22] hal14450: Right, that's what I'm saying though, that's probably from when I first installed Ubuntu, so a few months old [04:23] Dr_willis hope they get there soon... [04:23] kunji, no on each boot the previous log is renamed to 1,2,3 etc [04:23] hal14450, seems nothing yet public.. kinda sad [04:24] amyassin, it is [04:24] i already have enough security concerns but at least that isn't tied to cc info [04:24] I use google cache these days to get the info [04:24] hal14450: Is that Ubuntu specific? You think it's hibernating instead of shutting down then? Because the documentation says this: -logfile filename Use the file called filename as the Xorg server log file. The default log file is /var/log/Xorg.n.log on most platforms, where n is the display number of the Xorg server. The default may be in a different directory on some platforms. This option is only available when the server is run as r [04:25] kunji, check the date [04:25] amyassin, that can be handy i guess but i prefer ddg [04:26] hal14450: what's ddg?? [04:26] hal14450: with ls -la I get May 15 04:26 on the Xorg.1.log file [04:26] <---paranoid duckduckgo.com [04:27] Dr_willis, and hal14450 THANK YOU TO THE BOTH OF YOU!!! I fixed it with fstab editing. =] OPGHJHJGHJJHGHF STUPIDLY HAPPY ATM [04:27] so i guess it's not relevant then kunji and you're welcome RaveYoda but i think Dr_willis is the one to thank for that [04:29] amyassin, i'm literally playing without a full deck if you check my host [04:29] anybody else seeing really slow apt-gets from us.archive.ubuntu.com? I'm getting 139 kB/s [04:30] Halyard, Well...yes to a degree, but you told me how to get the user into plugdev [04:30] [00:29:56] * [hal14450] is connecting from *@definitely.playingwithoutafulldeck.com [04:30] hal14450: I misremembered earlier, the errors I found before are not AHCI, they are ACPI. In dmesg I found this: http://pastebin.com/mcbB5can [04:30] lol [04:30] hal14450, which is quite important too as user needs to be in the group to not have to do sudo mount [04:31] im running a custom created app on my web server .... i had it running, restarted the server... turned back on the app and now i get no images loadin on the test website ... heres what keeps coming up in the command line - https://privatepaste.com/52124228ef [04:31] ubuntu 12.04 LTS until when its gonna have support? [04:32] casshern, it has support [04:32] hi i have .vmdk file how to install that file in kvm on ubuntu [04:32] i mean until what year? [04:33] iirc 3 years is the standard for LTS [04:33] thanks [04:33] until a new one [04:33] 5 yrs for support iirc [04:33] john__, perhaps this -> http://www.linux-kvm.org/page/How_To_Migrate_From_Vmware_To_KVM [04:34] Shadowandlight, not sure how your custom app relates here, if you think it is the server and it is ubuntu you might try #ubuntu-server [04:34] hello [04:34] ping!!! [04:35] WHAT? [04:35] Ping? we barely even met... [04:35] LOL [04:35] where word is that [04:35] hal14450: Also ACPI errors in kern.log [04:37] hal14450: Hmm, there is a cups fail in boot.log, almost looks like it's trying to load cups twice [04:37] please help me [04:38] well agus speak [04:38] iam alreadt tried this link but it is not working [04:38] kunji, not sure whats up but hunting for errors in logs will generally glean more false positives than you have time for [04:39] tolong aku laper nih [04:39] john__, means nothing to me. i dont use either one.. that url says it should have native support.. perhaps ask in the kvm channels. [04:39] agus, we can't help you unless you speak english here [04:39] hal14450: Yeah, I sure don't have time to hunt down what they all mean, was hoping you might know if they're worth dismissing or are common offenders :P [04:40] how to updete ubuntu 10.04 to 13.04 [04:40] like most folks i use a search engine for answers i don't already have or have forgotten the solution to [04:41] hal14450: It's just a really weird one to me, like something in the shutdown process causes the fail on next boot... but it's a dual boot machine, and windows will boot every time regardless. Also it doesn't seem to matter whether it was shut down from windows or from Ubuntu, the next boot Ubuntu errors unless the machine was shutdown via the holding the power button. I'm really suspecting firmware at this point. [04:42] agus, probably too late for that since it's not an LTS so support is gone [04:42] hal14450: Yeah, no luck with google yet, :P I'll keep at it and let you know if I fine anything. [04:42] *find [04:43] kunji, sotty i can't be more helpful :( [04:44] damn typos [04:44] sooty :) [04:44] getting late here [04:44] lol [04:44] Dr_willis, was i wrong though? [04:45] 10.04 isn't exactly what most folks run if they're long term [04:46] maybe thats why he wants to update to 13.04 [04:46] am i wrong though because i ran 8.04 on my dtop for ages [04:47] modussssssssssssssss [04:47] i mean literally until last year when i finally updated to 12.04 [04:47] has join [04:48] Well, I'm gonna try just removing xorg.conf and rebooting, since that error report about xorg happens, maybe I'll get lucky, gotta reboot for that now, be back in a bit. [04:48] I have a fun situation. I have Ubuntu installed and I'm looking at installing Windows 7 alongside it. Should I reformat my HD and start from scratch, find a way to install Windows after Ubuntu, or can I "Export" my Ubuntu setup, install Windows, then reinstall it with my current setup? [04:49] any can speaking indonesian , hellooo.............. [04:49] no sorry agus [04:49] use google translate [04:50] John__, You want windows at the front of the disc for easy repair access [04:50] wadoh aku terpencil kie [04:51] John__, there used to be a way to add it to ntldr by copying the first 512 bytes but iirc win7 doesn't use that method like previous windows versions did [04:52] so basically it would be a pain to install afterwards and then access your any other os because windows only cares about itself [04:53] * wilee-nilee did not know windows was sentient. [04:53] agus, you can try apt-get dist-upgrade [04:54] Grah [04:54] John__, You can clone ubuntu and load it back if you need to. [04:54] Oh really? [04:54] Somebody mentioned that [04:55] windows won't even knwo it's there you just need to repair the boot loader [04:55] John__, I use clonezilla, the only catch is if the partition # is different your loading you will change that info in the saved packages, and it loads to a equal or larger partition of the original. [04:55] agus ??? [04:55] it can't recognize any filesystems other than MS filesystems [04:56] Grah I think I'll just backup my code from ubuntu and start anew. I'm very new to partitioning and I'm almost positive I'll end up breaking it somehow. [04:56] using separate drives is best if it's a dtop [04:57] linux on the ssd and windows on the old spinner [04:58] I don't have an SSD or multiple drives haha [04:58] John__, Also note when you are getting opinions not substance on the irc, [04:58] morning all [04:58] need some help. installed windows 7 in virtualbox on ubuntu host. I'm having issues with usb passthrough. [04:58] I know, thank you [04:58] I'll just fold and start from scratch haha [04:58] cmck193, You add the usb in settings? [04:58] ymmv with my opinions because i admit 10.04 is actually an LTS i skipped lol [04:59] wille-nille: how do I add the usb? [04:59] cmck193, Go to setting in vbox and add them. [04:59] there is a usb tab [05:00] wille-nille: it tells me no usb devices available [05:00] cmck193, sometimes you need to enable it in the bios if it won't work otherwise [05:00] hal14450: enable what in the bios? [05:00] cmck193, Any plugged in, and if so are they mounted with fstab? [05:00] usb passthrough for vm [05:00] hal14450: they are mounted [05:01] wille-nille: they are mounted [05:01] hal14450: that's an option? [05:01] cmck193, With fstab [05:01] I think I sort of know what's up now. I actually think it was the proprietary driver failing to switch between graphics cards. The laptop this is on has an A10 and a 7970m, and there is an indicator light for which one is in use. This fails to change in the cases where the boot fails. Removing Xorg.conf didn't help, but I switched to the open source drivers just now and it's been solid for 5 reboots. [05:01] wille-nille: yup. do they not need to be mounted? [05:02] cmck193, I suspect that is why vbox does not see them. [05:02] cmck193, fstab mounts differently then a just plugging in or having it plugged in when you boot. [05:03] wille-nille: so, they need to be unmounted from the host? [05:03] cmck193, No, probably just not mounted by fstab, they have to be seen by the computer. [05:03] There are unfortunately two downsides to using the open drivers on this machine, one is that the Steam games run better with the proprietary drivers (at least last I heard), and 2nd that my battery life will be shorter, since I don't think I know how to convince the open source drivers to switch to using the A10 instead of the 7870m [05:04] I never use fstab to mount externals or more than my one HD, so I'm not quite sure the voodoo that it does [05:05] wille-nille: maybe i'm not checking it correctly. tell me how to double check fstab [05:05] cmck193, gksudo gedit /etc/fstab === kb3gtn is now known as kb3gtn|AFK [05:06] wille-nille: ok, i'm wrong. just my swap and ext4 shows [05:07] cmck193, So is the usb showing as mounted? [05:07] ubuntu 12.04 wifi doesn't work properly, it disconnects me every 5 or 10 minutes. and after a while doesn't even connect me. can help me? [05:07] cmck193, Do you have the guest additions installed, and are you in the vbox group? [05:07] not in fstab, but i can see the files on it [05:07] yes and just added. [05:08] already install the driver of my wifi with ndiswrapper [05:08] and nothing! [05:08] I want to monitor the Whole Posgresql in nagios how can i do it [05:08] cmck193, So you see the usb icon in the left sidepanel of home? [05:09] wilee-nilee: fstab does voodoo? I thought it just mounted the listed stuff on boot with the given options, so at least I thought it was pretty straightforward. There's something else in Ubuntu that handles auto-mounting removable stuff and things like that, don't remember what it is though [05:09] can i just say that i enjoy this ubuntu :) [05:09] no [05:09] lol [05:09] :( [05:09] wille-nille: yup. do i need to unmount it? i added myself to the vbox group. do i need to restart? [05:10] cmck193, Maynbe a logout would probably do it if that is the problem. [05:10] i need help with my wifi, please!

For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." [05:10] wille-nille: ok. brb going to logout and try again [05:10] ubuntu 12.04 wifi doesn't work properly, it disconnects me every 5 or 10 minutes. and after a while doesn't even connect me. can help me?

[05:32] kunji, that even seems weird.. if its to be a big 'ubuntu flagship' product - makes me wonder why its not allready got funding from err.. canocal and so forth. but what do i know.. Im just a lowly consumer. [05:33] Its not the ubuntu phone [05:33] Im still waiting for the PiCade case to be avail for me to buy. ;) [05:33] they have ubuntu flagship phones [05:33] this is a trial device not a phone [05:33] wilee-nilee: figured it out. [05:33] ill still belive it when i actually see the things produced. [05:33] I have a whole closet of failed hardware 'gizmos' from over the years. :P [05:33] wilee-nilee: run "VBoxManage list usbhost" in terminal and see what port you device is on, then create a usb filter with just that port number. Love it [05:34] last time i looked they raised 6 million, not sure what it is now [05:34] 7 last night [05:34] Ok, so if anyone is on i just need a quick answer. I've installed ndiswrapper-utils, ndiswrapper-common and ndisgtk but now i can't seem to get to the System clue_h: same. The average per day is not looking good to hit target, unless Shuttlworth dibs in for the missing amount [05:34] Dr_willis: Well, http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/ubuntu-edge there you go. I know Ubuntu isn't broke, but I'm not sure they've got 32 million lying around either. So the other Ubuntu phones that will come out are partnerships with phone manufacturers. [05:34] just one more question: how do i auto mount my local windows partition? [05:35] cmck193, make a fstab entry for it usign the ntfs-3g filesystem [05:35] !fstab | cmck193 [05:35] cmck193: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions [05:35] !ntfs-3g | cmck193 [05:35] cmck193: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions [05:35] fictionalhippo: lsusb in terminal [05:35] And if they don't hit the 32 mil you get your money back, so meh, seems ok [05:36] that would be unfortunate, i like the look of this edge [05:36] specs more so [05:36] the concept is amazing [05:37] if it can connect to a monitor i can connect it to a mini projector ha [05:37] I actually wasn't too impressed with the specs, also I'm not really clear on what I/O is available, it does need to function more or less as a desktop so... are they going with a special dock to expand I/O or something? [05:38] clue_h: or even a big projector! ha [05:38] thanks all. [05:38] night [05:38] kunji: the specs are not released yet ? [05:38] true indeed [05:38] :) [05:38] mJayk: Some are, but not all [05:38] mJayk, yeah i've done that and it shows that it is there it just wont connect. I Don't think the drivers were able to make it through so i downloaded those apps to try and move over the drivers from the installation disk that came with my wireless USB adapter [05:38] intel has had that wireless->to a monitor stuff for some time. and saw google has some chrome-cast dongle comming out.. but still its hard for that stuff to catch on it seems. [05:39] fictionalhippo: try ip link show [05:39] a Phone or pc or chromebook with a chrome-cast dongle support. would be handy for me. Somthing to hope gets in the future of ubuntu. [05:39] Dr_willis: Archos43 that I've got actually has mini-HDMI out, only problem with that device is that it's pretty slow, but it also has host USB with an adapter, so I can use mouse and keyboard with it as well [05:40] kunji, my latest hardware toy is a Raspberry Pi. :) so im going the cheap route in my hardware hobbies. [05:41] danny@fictionalhippo:~$ ip link show 1: lo: mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN mode DEFAULT link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00 2: eth0: mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP mode DEFAULT qlen 1000 link/ether 78:ac:c0:c0:e9:53 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff [05:41] Dr_willis: got one of those too ^_^ it's nice, even XBMC 1080p video, just the GUI is kinda slow [05:41] thats my result [05:41] kunji, i have an archos, the problem is i cant put debian/ubuntu on it as it has no boot option [05:41] Anyone have a windows phone / how do they sync media [05:41] fictionalhippo: hard to tell with no formatting [05:41] kunji, been testing out that Plex-pi disrto on mine lately. also got xbian going, connecting to my ubuntu upnp server. [05:41] fictionalhippo: so you have lothats ok you have wired yea i dont see it either [05:42] clue_h: I think you can get the boot option, but I, and least to get Angstrom running, not sure if anyone has gotten Ubuntu running on it [05:42] It is very nice the advances that upnp has made in the last few years.. ;) [05:42] In what directory should i extract a software? :) [05:42] HypnotiX, totally depends on what it is.. and who its for [05:42] its a text editor for me :) [05:42] mJayk, would you possibly have an email i can send it to? [05:42] HypnotiX, stuff for your user, could bekept in their user home. [05:43] HypnotiX, no need to move it elsewhere system wide.. unless you wnat all users to access it [05:43] i'll just keep trying, [05:43] alright thanx [05:43] how can i write a script which shows "good morning " message when the system gets started [05:43] fictionalhippo: its ok your right it lists only lo and eth0 as network devcies [05:44] See, this looks good though: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h384z7Ph0gU&list=UUJ65UG_WgFa_O_odbiBWZoA ... but when is this hardware coming, and how much will it cost -_- [05:44] Yeah thats what is making this difficult, but when i do lsusb it shows that is connected to the usb. [05:45] so it just doesnt recognise it as a network device [05:45] fictionalhippo: what is the name of the usb stick ? [05:45] can anyone recomond a twitter ncurces application? [05:45] I need help with Wine. [05:45] 050d:110a Belkin Components [05:45] I was trying to install windows program. But it seems it installed it well but it's having trouble with starting up. [05:45] its a wireless usb adapter since i don't have access to an ethernet cord in my room. [05:46] fictionalhippo: do you have the windows drivers ? [05:46] Hello, can anyone recomond a twitter ncurces application for a low resources computer? [05:46] what's a twitter application? === zz_DenBeiren is now known as DenBeiren [05:47] sam113101: a twitter client that works in console [05:47] i've got the drivers for it on the install disk. I can see the drivers themselves when i insert the disk and open the files [05:47] fictionalhippo: gdgd [05:47] Anyone? [05:47] I need help with Wine [05:48] fictionalhippo: try this sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper-utils ndiswrapper-common ndisgtk [05:48] danny4way: Might have better luck in the WINE IRC channel, it's a pretty specific area [05:48] <||arifaX> danny4way: more info [05:48] <||arifaX> danny4way: what about the programs name? [05:48] | |arifaX, Okay basically I am trying to install Microsoft office 2007 [05:49] danny4way: use play on linux [05:49] danny4way: installs perfectly [05:49] mJayk, Is play like wine that installs windows program? [05:49] Ok mJayk, it says it installed fine [05:49] Or is it microsoft office like program? [05:50] danny4way: you tel it what you are installing and it sets wine up for that program [05:50] <||arifaX> danny4way: I can't remember exactly but I think it only works with the commercial wine [05:50] Now the problem with Wine is that it installs smoothly. [05:50] fictionalhippo: ok now try ndiskgt [05:50] When i load up, it says Unhandled expection: assertion failed in 32-bit code [05:51] MS Office in wine. Eww. ;) [05:51] i am using ubuntu 12.04 OS. i am not able to connect to wifi ca any one help me [05:51] mJayk, command not found... [05:51] danny4way: you prolly have some files that are not installed either clibs or crap [05:51] Anyone know when LO 4.1 will come to ubuntu repos? [05:51] dosent MS have some sort of online-office feature now? [05:51] Dr_willis: works through wine and yes :( [05:52] fictionalhippo: you just installed ndisgtk yea [05:52] abiword does all the word processing i need these days. ;) [05:52] nithin: What happens? Can you at least see networks? [05:52] yeah it didn't show any problems [05:52] fictionalhippo: ok lets try to find it in the lens i think its in System > Administration > Windows Wireless devices [05:52] fictionalhippo: we are just trying to run the program you just installed [05:53] hi guys [05:53] I'm happy to wait a few years for morrowind to be fully ready [05:53] I am running xubuntu it isn't bad [05:53] HI [05:53] :) [05:53] fictionalhippo: that will load the windows .ini for your usb and tell ubuntu its a wireless devicve [05:53] <||arifaX> danny4way: winehq says it should work quite well. maybe you pick up a tutorial and follow it http://www.webupd8.org/2011/01/how-to-install-microsoft-office-2007-in.html [05:53] yes i am using lenovo laptop i can able to connect to wired network but not for wifi [05:53] How to recover shift+deleted files/folders ? [05:53] Thank you [05:54] ok, now here's my next question. I'm running Ubuntu 13.04, how do i get to System > Administration > Windows Wireless Devices? [05:54] !undelete | petoo [05:54] petoo: Some tools to recover lost data are listed and explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery - Recovering deleted files on !ext3 filesystems can be virtually impossible, although methods that might work is some cases are described at at http://www.xs4all.nl/~carlo17/howto/undelete_ext3.html and http://projects.izzysoft.de/trac/ext3undel [05:54] nithin: Can you see wireless networks, but not connect? Or you cant see wireless networks at all? === Sp00ky is now known as White`Rabbit [05:54] nithin: look for a program called "Additional Drivers" and run that, then select wireless drivers lenovo are proprietary [05:55] <||arifaX> danny4way: maybe this is better for you: http://www.unixmen.com/install-ms-office2007-on-ubuntu-using-playonlinux/ using playonlinux [05:55] Dr_willis, I am using extundelete and it asks me to first dismount the drive I am using right now. Is it possible at all? === White`Rabbit is now known as Sp00ky [05:55] Dr_willis: Is there a list of shortcuts for bots somewhere? [05:55] hello could someone tell me if I am screwed [05:55] Helpme123456789: you're screwed [05:55] I just typed apt-get remove wine 1.6 in term [05:55] and I am watching everything uninstall [05:55] fictionalhippo: press windows key and type system [05:55] petoo, you want to unmount the filesystem asap. and work from a live cd. to have the best chance of success.. even then.. its may not be a very big chance. [05:56] every program on the computer is being uninstalled [05:56] Helpme123456789, whts the exact command you used? [05:56] apt-get remove wine 1.6 [05:56] all that comes up is system settings, system log, and system monitor. [05:56] mJayk, ^ [05:56] initially it will not displays the wireless networks available, but if i mention the name of wifi connection available it will starts searching for that connection at that time i can able to see the name of the connection [05:56] Helpme123456789, err. the package name dosent have a space in it as far as i know. [05:56] fictionalhippo: go to system settings [05:56] yhea [05:57] I know [05:57] | |arifaX, Thank you [05:57] ok im there [05:57] but its to late [05:57] so i dont even see how it did anything with '1.6' being an invalid package name [05:57] Helpme123456789: can't you stop it and re-install whats its uninstalling [05:57] tryed ctrl c [05:57] did not stop [05:57] But I've got other windows program to install too. Because I was a windows user. And I just moved to Ubuntu a few months ago since it's summer break. [05:57] it just uninstalled everything [05:57] all icons [05:57] all apps [05:57] My school is gonna be open soon so I need all those windows program. [05:57] Helpme123456789, ctrl-c should definatly stop. and i dont see how it even ran being an invalid command. [05:58] console stopped at configring virtualbox [05:58] Example: I tried to install iTunes a few days ago because I need to update my iPhone but it shows the same thing about 32 bit problem [05:58] it might be a bug idk [05:58] but it should not have uninstalled everything [05:58] brb [05:58] Helpme123456789: I cant tried it, and yea I get an error, its not uninstalling everything lol [05:58] I just tried it* [05:59] Helpme123456789: try re-installing what it uninstalled, if not, you can back up ur files and re-install [05:59] mJayk, i was searching all through the system setting earlier trying to find it but came up with nothing. Hopefully you can. [06:00] fictionalhippo: bugger i made a spelling mistake [06:00] fictionalhippo: try ndisgtk [06:00] fictionalhippo: in console [06:01] you may need to run it as root [06:02] ok mJayk, so i have it pulled up. [06:02] you get the window? [06:02] its still running ctrl_C is not stoping it [06:02] i want to see the command I put in [06:02] fictionalhippo: ok now i thin k you need to go to insert new driver [06:03] is there another key to stop the term [06:03] fictionalhippo: then locate the .inf file on the install cd, im not sure which .inf file there may be 2 or 3 but you should beable to work out which one i.e. 32 or 64 bit etc [06:03] before it uninstalls firefox [06:03] lol [06:03] Helpme123456789: uninstalling firefox is no biggie [06:03] Helpme123456789: try sudo killall terminal ? :p [06:03] just reinstall it [06:03] I wouldn't stop it [06:03] its uninstalling the term [06:03] LOL [06:04] there went crome [06:04] there went the unity menu [06:04] you're saving disk space. [06:04] D: [06:04] * Dr_willis waits for it to remove his irc client. [06:04] since i couldent get it to repeate the problem either. [06:04] fictionalhippo: any luck ? [06:04] xchat is gone [06:05] Might as well let it finish, then install it all again. You don't want your packages in an inconsistent state, which could very well happen if you kill the process. [06:05] im using webchat in firefox [06:06] ok its done [06:06] ok mJayk, so i didn't get any errors and just for saftey i tried to install it a second time and it says driver is already installed. Only, im still not getting any wireless activity. [06:06] I up arrowed the last command I typed [06:06] http://pastebin.com/LypVXNAf [06:07] Helpme123456789, now check /var/log/apt and see what happened [06:07] fictionalhippo: ok now (you may need to restart) try ip link show again [06:07] fictionalhippo: it should come up with number 3 now === CyberJacob|Away is now known as CyberJacob [06:09] hello guys [06:09] Allo all [06:09] haya dex Balroth [06:09] ok mJayk, im gonna restart it and try the command because it's still not showing it. It'll be a few minutes. [06:09] fictionalhippo: sure [06:10] Has anyone done VimADventure? [06:11] hello, everyone... does this channel provide any tech support? =) [06:11] dwane: it attepts to :) [06:11] only to those that ask support related questions. [06:11] We try to dwane [06:11] i'm having an issue with totem-audio-preview [06:12] dwane: That the one where it plays sound when you mouse-over the file? [06:13] runnin 13.04 desktop on a thinkpad. cant get conky to run at startup. it said that it added it to startup menu during the setup on the terminal/. but i have to ad it manually to startup applications? what is the command for the command box and what should i name it? How to get conky to start up at login? i didi already add it to startup applications with command "conky" but nothing. [06:13] normally when i hover over an audio icon i can hear it played, but now it doesn't -- the sound preferences show totem-audio preview opening/playing the file but the mute checkbox is selected [06:13] That 'feature' has scared the snot out of more then 1 people i know kuji ;) [06:14] Dr_willis: I thought it disappeared by now, no? [06:14] so how do i unselect the mute option? [06:14] maxiPad3gs, the conky faq mentions adding a little script to run it in your ~/.config/autostart (or was it autorun) directory [06:14] kunji, i thought it had been removed also. [06:14] maxiPad3gs, basically the script sleeps for like 30 sec, then runs conky. [06:15] maxiPad3gs, seen examples of this at the conky faq/docs and on askubuntu.com Im not onmy ubuntu box to pastebin mine. [06:15] dwane: I'm not exactly sure what you're talking about, I also need to sleep. You should probably give full details and someone else will probably be able to help. [06:15] alright mJayk, so that didnt seem to work. Im still getting the same message when i enter ip link show and there is still no wireless activity. [06:16] fictionalhippo: ok i found this while you were away [06:16] fictionalhippo: http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/ndiswrapper/index.php?title=Main_Page [06:16] fictionalhippo: see if you can find your wireless usb thing on there [06:16] itll tell you what .inf file to use and if other people have had sucess [06:17] *really ndiswrapper is a last resort [06:17] Back had to boot off live disc I was just here under the Helpme... username [06:17] hi all :) i have an interesting one for everyone... if i find my computer's clock is 24 hours behind, how can i begin to track down "when" this happened? [06:17] until i get this figured out, can i just manually run conky from the terminal each time i start up? how to do that? just type conky in terminal from @myname? and then can i close the terminal window becaue when i do that it warns me that a script is still running but when i close it anyway conky still continues to run until logout? [06:18] hdon: so instead of 6pm is says 6pm [06:18] caf4926, ha, yes [06:18] caf4926: its quite common for usb wireless adapts [06:18] maxiPad3gs, the command is 'conky' correct... if you want to use conky, you really should go to the conky homepage and read some of its docs. [06:18] * hdon is glad he doesn't have to ndiswrapper anymore [06:18] maxiPad3gs, run 'conky' then 'exit' at the terminal [06:19] mJayk: did you find the id of the chip it uses [06:19] Dr_willis: i have all last night and today. my new policy is to never waste your time until i have crawled the forums. i am just a hopeless noob is all [06:19] Really, Conky was just taking up resources and making my screens do weird things when I used to use it about a year ago. I don't know if it's better now. [06:19] caf4926: i assume thats what is being looked up atm :) [06:19] maxiPad3gs, i think the conky faq was rather exacting in how to make that startup script. [06:20] maxiPad3gs, its a 3 line script.. #!/bin/bash sleep 30 conky (if i recall) [06:20] here is whats in apt history.log [06:20] Dr_willis: let me go back and re read it all then thank you. [06:20] *wireless USB devices are so cheap it's easier just to get one that works IMO [06:20] http://pastebin.com/xS3i8GWW [06:20] why would it remove all that just by putting apt-get remove wine 1.6 [06:20] getting conky started should be easy.. getting it configured how you like.. .thats harder. [06:20] caf4926: i dont really think thats the point :) someone has already purchased the hardware and just want it to work [06:21] ok so I was not looking [06:21] when I pressed y and enter [06:21] was just thinking it was wine till it was to late [06:22] mJayk: work, fair enough but with some half baked windows .inf from a near obsolete OS [06:22] but even still if you do apt-get remove 1.6 it wants to remove just about everything [06:22] caf4926: work correct [06:22] Dr_willis: you are talking about the source forge faq page right? i am going to go over this agin and hopefully get it thanks [06:23] maxiPad3gs, i just recall going to the actual conky homepage with like 10000 examples.. been using conky for literally years now.. (decades?) every so often theres a resuragnce of people what want to play with it. thenit dies down. then comes back [06:23] and having wine installed did not let it get to the error unable to locate package it thought i wanted to remove both things? [06:23] ok got it thanks im out. [06:23] maxiPad3gs, there should be some guides and config tools for it on the omgubuntu and webupd8 blog sites also [06:24] okty [06:24] beyondcr, sudo apt-get remove 1.6 seems to a 'wildcard' everything it asks to remove here has '1.6' in its name [06:25] 1.6 is a 'regular experssion' for 1(pattern)6 [06:26] Dr_willis: why would it remove nautilus and network-manager and others that donot say 1.6 [06:26] beyondcr, for example 'sudo apt-get remove lib.' will as to remove everything with lib in its name [06:26] 1.6 also matches 16 and 111121244216 and a lot of other patterns [06:26] can anyone tell me please how to dim down an image in krita? [06:26] interesting [06:26] so the lesson is.. be CAREFULL with wildcards. ;) [06:27] well 'regular expressions' [06:27] and for the record.. apt-get does support tab completion [06:27] yeah lol I think I learned a little from this one. [06:27] well i might aswell reinstall now [06:27] Hmmm saw THIS interesting message for apt-get.. [06:27] thanks for the time Dr_willis [06:28] 'you are abut to do somthing potentially harmfull' [06:28] to continue type in the phrase 'Yes, do as I say!' [06:28] that was at the end of the 'apt-get remove lib.' example [06:30] just caught me off guard because I had installed wine from unofficial repos and could not remember the version I wanted to reinstall the offical version [06:31] just need to stop saying yes to stuff so quickly [06:32] sudo apt-get remove wine [06:32] ;) [06:32] yhea for some reason the tab auto complete is not doing anything [06:33] make sure thers no space after the wine [06:33] >hic< [06:33] auto tab works fine with file names and cd [06:33] just not doing anything in apt [06:34] beyondcr: double tap? [06:34] well night all. [06:34] whats a good program to test auto tab on live disc [06:35] autocomplete tab? [06:35] yhea [06:35] ok mJayk, sorry about the wait but i found one that is similar to it. The only one closest to mine is the F9L1101v1 mine is F9L1101v2. Do you think it could still be compatable? [06:35] anything, firefox? [06:35] yhea its not working [06:36] beyondcr: uptime? uname? [06:36] i can type apt-g and press tab and it completes [06:36] but anything after that it dose nothing [06:37] who knows maybe it needs to be updated [06:38] could it be that you have an alias set? type 'alias' to get a list. [06:40] I am using ubuntu 13.04 and eclipse ide for java keplar.. it keeps slowing down after starting till it becomes unusable.. Can anyone point out what could be wrong? [06:40] on live disc going to hop off to backup some files before I get owned [06:40] and it gives some reindexing error [06:42] fictionalhippo: Id give it ago its a shame really as im not to sure to be honest [06:43] fictionalhippo: was the .inf in the location that they mentioned on that site for that card? [06:43] mJayk: I didn't look, let me check real fast. [06:44] hello [06:44] is there a way [06:44] punkmexic: highway ? [06:44] the operators put this link on topic http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/ubuntu-edge [06:45] ubuntu edge can be a great phone only if we support it [06:45] it will be a shame if the goal is not reached :( [06:45] i feel is not gonna be reached [06:49] mJayk: So i went ahead and removed the drivers and tried to reinstall them and this is the erro i got. "FATAL: Module ndiswrapper not found." What should i do? [06:49] fictionalhippo: you did that via the same method as before ? [06:50] mJayk: yep. is there something i need to install? [06:50] no you installed taht [06:50] i believe [06:51] im so confused lol [06:51] fictionalhippo: you tried to uninstall it via ndisgtk yes [06:52] mJayk: yeah [06:52] fictionalhippo: have you tried the configure network button inside that program ? [06:53] mJayk: yeah i tried configuring it and it only shows the ethernet connection. [06:54] :( im not to sure what to do either then im sorry either try posting on http://ubuntu-discourse.org/ [06:54] or wait around in here some1 else may know more than me [06:54] I uninstalled Chrome from Ubuntu using sudo apt-get purge google-chrome-stable .

I'm running Ubuntu 13.04 off of a USB stick that I created using UNetBootin. I also made reserved 9999MB as I need it to save data after each reboot. Basically I need it to behave sort of like puppy linux. [07:05] IProblem is, no data is saved after each reboot.... [07:07] BlitzHere: you enabled persistance ? [07:07] I made the bootable stick using Lubuntu 13.04, and I have two partitions on the USB stick. A 11.44 GB ext4 partition and a 3 GB swap partition [07:07] BlitzHere, You need it persistent unetbootin offers that, or you can make a partition and name it casper-rw for a persistent bigger than 4 gigs offered by unetbootin [07:07] I did [07:07] bazhang: Cant i use sudo apt-get autoremove ? [07:08] A1Recon, install ppa-purge and run it [07:08] BlitzHere, the iso needs only one gig, a swap is optional. [07:09] wilee-nilee : I did. Made it 9999MB and I used ext4 to get past the 4gig limit [07:09] BlitzHere, How did you make the persistent? [07:09] 11.44 GB ext4 partition and a 3 GB swap partition on 16 GB stick [07:11] wilee-nilee: Space to save data across reboots option in UnetBootIn. The space you can reserve is listed in MB and goes upto 9999. However FAT32 has a 4GB file size limit. So, I made an ext4 partition in the usb stick and got the full 9999MB [07:12] It boots fine, and I have a casper-rw 10GB in size but data wasn't preserved. [07:12] Was ext4 a mistake? [07:13] no, you're doing it wrong [07:13] :P [07:13] I believe there's an option inside Ubuntu to make a bootable USB [07:13] so you can boot from the Live Image and then use the USB wizard [07:13] BlitzHere, Been awhile sinnce I did this but the iso should be on a small partition like 1 gig a separate partition for the casper-rw and the sap is optional, but honestly with 16 gigs I would do a full install. [07:14] dmesg prints something about bluetooth http://paste.kde.org/p68828f6c/50819631/ (from line 783). What does it mean? Is here something for bluetooth used and how can I disable it if I don't use bluetooth? [07:15] soman: nothing to be concerned, means the bluetooth subsystems have been initialized [07:15] also means bluetooth is supported on the kernel [07:16] Coburn, wilee-nilee: I'm running the live image right now. should I make another live DVD/USB stick and try to Install on to the 16 GB USB flash drive? [07:16] yeah [07:16] the thing is, do the full install on the USB [07:16] GRUB is smart enough to find the root FS on the USB stick [07:17] your speed may vary [07:17] I would do a full install, has to be a manual install, and pointbe sure grub is pointed to the usb's mbr [07:17] Coburn: thanks [07:17] no prob soman [07:18] I would not say grub is smart enough, the something other manual install might default grub to the usb;s mbr I would just make sure. === n is now known as Guest7090 === mu is now known as Guest42577 === DocGrooveAway is now known as DocGroove [07:23] Hey guys, I left my computer up from yesterday, when I logged in to my ubuntu 13.04 I found that every thing running slowly, I thought ubuntu would never do that, Is there any explanation why do this happen and how to fix it?

[08:01] i.e. what if the prime drive crashes and I have to get a new one? [08:02] I wouldn't want to format the second drive [08:02] you don't need to touch the second drive [08:02] yeah but when I first installed it, ubuntu saw the drive, but it refused to copy to it at first [08:02] it said "you are not the owner" [08:02] Lunar_LanderU: you are the owner now, so it's fine [08:03] yeah [08:03] I've installed ruby, rvm, ruby gems, and tried to install rails.It seems to be installed, but when i open new terminal window and type rails, terminal says that rails is not installed [08:03] what I meant is if the main drive crashes and the second then is some sort of backup [08:03] q_: how did you install rails ?

[08:04] Lunar_LanderU: no the second one is just that a second drive, containing whatever data you put on it [08:04] yea [08:04] q_: did you have to use sudo when you did gem install rails? [08:05] nope i didnt [08:05] should i? [08:05] q_: no. [08:05] q_: It probably installed it to a local directory, if you add it to your path you should be able to use rails. [08:06] please say me how to add it to PATH [08:06] q_: If you do not know how to add it to your path you might want to use the ubuntu package manager.

I've already tried Lubuntu and very liked it, however lubuntu 12.04 is not LTS and 13.04 is quite buggy. Therefore I tried vanilla 12.04 Ubuntu, but it seems quite laggy on my netbook. Should I try xubuntu 12.04 or simply install another DE? [09:13] nxis: Xubuntu is fairly lightweight [09:13] nxis: +1 for Xubuntu [09:14] ok, then should I install from scratch or just add another DE? [09:14] nxis: Or you could start with a Xubuntu base system, and install a super-lightweight window manager like Openbox (Similar to Crunchbang, a debian-based distro) [09:14] I've already tried awesome, and understood that i'm not yet ready for such environment =) [09:15] nxis: If you don't need to stick with the Ubuntu route, Crunchbang is the best lightweight distro I've used [09:16] But they provide instructions for how to add Crunchbang features to other distros too, so you could do that [09:17] and what about installing xubuntu? is there any differences between installing xubuntu from scratch, or adding corresponding packet via apt-get? [09:18] nxis: You can install the "xubuntu-desktop" package [09:19] wouldn't there be some sort of conflicting applications (ubuntu/xubuntu)? [09:19] only difference i could think of is support [09:19] nah you can pick between the different desktops [09:20] nvyou can install the xfce4 package then log off and log in to the XFCE session in LightDM [09:20] blazemore, ActionParsnip mm but claws doesn't support html emails right? some partners only send html crap..

[09:31] yes, but i did not notice any performance advantages [09:31] also I prefer old style look'n'feel (like gnome 2) [09:32] hmm, maybe try linux mint then, or you can install cinnamon on unbuntu i believe [09:33] is there LTS in mint? [09:33] Is there any fix ? :-( Im getting steam needs to be online to update [09:33] not 100% sure how they work, but i believe they track ubuntu, so it's possible [09:34] thought steam was only supported on 12.04 [09:34] dont really pay attention to steam much [09:36] Has someone had experience with NVIDIA fakeRAID?

For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." [10:00] ikonia, I want a seperate copy of ubuntu 13.04 in addition to my current one, [10:00] StarOnD: so why did you do bootrepair ? [10:02] so I got a live cd , partitioned my disk which already has win + ubuntu 13, added an entry to 40_custom as advised on this page https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromLinux [10:02] hey how can i be in 2 rooms at the same time in xchat ? [10:02] I wanted a seperate copy of ubuntu 13 [10:03] gregor_: just type /join #channel [10:03] how can I easily have multiple OS's and add them to grub2 ? [10:03] StarOnD: I understand you want seperate copies, but that doesn't make sense why you are using bootrepair ? [10:04] StarOnD: boot repair fixes failed booting, that has nothing to do with wanting a seperate copy [10:05] on that page it tells me to edit 40_custom for grub2. when I did that, it gave me an error kernel needs to be loaded or something similar [10:05] so it needed bootrepair [10:06] StarOnD: you really shouldn't need boot repair [10:06] StarOnD: you've edited a file wrong - put it back to normal, verify it's working, then try again learning the mistake [10:07] rather than just blindly firing a boot repair session at something that doesn't have a boot problem [10:07] that 40_custom rule is for ubuntu 9.10, that's a bit stale [10:07] FleaFlicker: it's still valid in later versions as far as I can see [10:08] read the instructions [10:08] R\eadt he man pages FleaFlicker [10:09] those instructions are for if you have 9.10, clearly that is not the case [10:09] FleaFlicker: is the 40_custom rule not valid in later versions ? [10:09] 9.10 was eoled i thought? [10:09] doesn't matter, it's not valid in this case [10:10] FleaFlicker: explain how it's not valid ? [10:10] FleaFlicker: is the 40_custom grub option no longer valid ? [10:10] Is there a way to emulate osx other than purchasing the software from Crapple [10:10] are you reading the posted instructions? [10:10] flipper88_fl: it's called "apple" [10:11] FleaFlicker: I'm not asking about the instructions, I'm asking if 40_custom is no longer valid ? [10:11] flipper88_fl: Ive seen that there is a wine-like solution for OSX [10:11] I know I ahaapen to be ravidlyanti apple and microfot [10:11] flipper88_fl: and no ther eis no ubuntu virtualization that will support mac os X [10:12] I know I ahaapen to be ravidlyanti apple and microsot due to having been cheated out of several hundered USD by each enterprise [10:12] flipper88_fl: are there mac specific apps?

[10:33] OerHeks, it doesnt seem to be working [10:33] so its not much of a useful tutorial [10:34] top [10:34] oops [10:34] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromLinux, on this page for ubuntu 13.04 ,will we use initrd.lz? [10:35] StarOnD: it looks like a typo [10:35] substitute sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386 with sudo dpkg --foreign-architecture i386 [10:36] it should be gz ? [10:37] StarOnD: why are you doing this ? [10:37] how do we make a similar menu entry for a different os ? [10:37] StarOnD: why are you not just doing a seperate install as you anted [10:37] wanted [10:37] that's what I am doing, installing 2 copies of ubuntu + some other linuces [10:38] StarOnD: the installed should detect the other OS's during the install [10:38] how will I choose between them if I dont make a grub2 entry? [10:39] okay, how do I do a seperate install from inside linux ? [10:39] hello all !! i am on ubuntu 12.04 64 bit and i want to know use of this /usr/share/dict/words where i see lots of words how do i get meaning of this word [10:40] StarOnD: why from "inside linux" just do a standard install [10:40] dont havea usb or cd [10:40] I try to find out which smartcard reader (hardware) I have build in. I have a Dell Latitude E6400. Any clue how to find out which hardware is assembled? [10:40] okay, how do I go from one usb to 2nd usb ? [10:40] I dont have a cd [10:41] Oins: lsusb or lspci [10:41] vnc786: You will have to install a dictionary application from the Software Centre [10:42] StarOnD: how did you install the first one === luckybunny is now known as QuirkyQuirk [10:43] its been a long time , I forget [10:45] maybe through windows ? I dont recall now , but now thatI have one ubuntu, I prefer this way [10:45] Helllo people, made the switch from UBUNTU to KUBUNTU a while ago, anyone know any musthave apps for this? [10:45] N03L: depends on your needs [10:45] blazemore: so that dictionary will use this path ? is there any command line option to get meaning of words.. [10:46] N03L: kubuntu-restricted-extras is a good one to add in [10:46] vnc786: No, that dict is just a list of words [10:46] N03L: kTorrent for a torrent client [10:46] Ubuntu is giving me seriously low audio output. here is alsa info : http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=8eba5e8b0aac25910bda6260a02542173342c8c5 [10:46] Aaruni: Install the application "pavucontrol" and run it; check all your volume levels [10:46] Aaruni: if you run: alsamixer are all levels maxed? [10:47] vnc786: you can use the command 'look' to use the dictionary [10:48] ActionPa1snip: all but master is maxed. master is at 66. [10:48] they do not however provide definitions [10:48] Aaruni: crank it! :) [10:48] for example, look cloud [10:48] blazemore: pavucontrol gives me the system sound that I have set, nothing more [10:48] ActionPa1snip: Certainly looks useful, I'll look into that. Right now, I'm interested in apps that can help navigation and management more easier or organized etc. [10:49] StarOnD: pretty imporant to know, as if you did it through windows, that's a wubi install, and the instructions you are following is not valid [10:49] Could someone tell me if I should install the 64 bit or 32 bit edition on a computer with an AMD Athlon II X2 255 processor? [10:49] ActionPa1snip: still very low [10:49] Tantor: is it a 64bit compatible processor ? [10:49] blazemore: I seem to be having problems with Ktorrent, but I haven't bothered to fix it, will defs do that when I get the chance. Cheers for the reminder though. [10:49] do your speakers have a manual volume control on them? [10:49] I don't know. How can I find out that? [10:49] Tantor: If it supports 64 bit, use the 64 bit version [10:49] FleaFlicker: yeah just ran that cmd then what is the use of all words coming on screen but not providing meaning Or is any other special use ? [10:50] vnc786: For spellcheck mainly [10:50] vnc786: no, they do not provide definitions, it's just a list of words [10:50] N03L: organisation of what? [10:50] do your speakers have a manual volume control on them? : its a laptop, no hardware switches [10:51] Aaruni: are there any bugs reported? [10:51] ActionPa1snip: no bugs, I think. see the alsainfo for yourself. [10:51] Tantor: are you running windows right now? [10:51] ActionPa1snip: files and stuff, dolphin is a pretty neat file manager, but if there's something that tops it in anyone's mind, I'll look into it. [10:52] No, there was some very old version of fedora on this machine [10:52] Tantor: it should support 64bit [10:52] Ok, thanks [10:52] Hi all [10:53] N03L: images can be managed by shotwell etc, music can be managed by AMarok etc..... [10:54] N03L: or digikam etc. [10:55] hi guys, I bought an external hard drive and want to use it to store and shutte data between computers. I'll be dealing with a lot of brain imaging data (so rather large files, ~10GB per file). What format would you recommend? I need it to a) allow large files b) be readable by windows/mac systems c) have FOSS recovery/repair tools (I've been having some nasty experiences with NTFS) [10:55] ActionPa1snip, blazemore : maybe if I say that I am comparing the output to windows which dualboots on the same machine, the problem makes more sense to you guys ? [10:56] D-Chymera1: ntfs [10:56] Aaruni: Maybe Windows controls some sort of hardware volume; try booting into Windows, setting the volume to full, and then boot back to Ubuntu [10:56] blazemore: tried that, didn't fix anything [10:56] D-Chymera1: remember to use the safe removal feature in your OSes to make sure the storage is ok [10:57] D-Chymera1: windows cannot access a great many file systems and is restricting your choices because it sucks [10:57] ActionPa1snip: AFAIK, OSX can't write onto NTFS, only read from there. [10:57] Aaruni: i see, weird === _BJFreeman is now known as BJfreeman [10:57] ActionPa1snip: any other formats? [10:58] D-Chymera1: maybe you can try exFAT [10:58] http://www.macbreaker.com/2012/02/enable-write-for-ntfs-hard-drives-on.html [10:58] D-Chymera1: again, windows is holding you back, FAT32 has a max file size of 4Gb [10:58] D-Chymera1: exfat maybe, as Aaruni [10:59] you can also get ext2 support for windows and mac [11:00] but it is very weak [11:00] and can often cause corruption [11:01] can ubuntu use HFS+ filesystems ? [11:01] can read [11:01] no write ? [11:01] doesnt do well with writes [11:01] Aaruni: R/O, but Windows cant even read HFS+ [11:01] very limited support [11:01] bekks: for windows there is HFSExplorer, but that's read only too.. windows is indeed holding D-Chymera1 back.. === thomas is now known as Guest24622 [11:03] pretty sure exfat is the only one to work on all three, however, the disk size may become an issue [11:03] FleaFlicker: why? [11:04] exFAT doesn't have a volume size limit, nor FAT32 [11:04] i believe exfat is for flash devices [11:04] ah ok [11:04] FleaFlicker: yeah, but it's not because of the disk size. It's because it lacks journaling, and it supports large volumes and files >4GB [11:05] NTFS wouldn't be efficient in a flash drive [11:06] wow, i tried linux mint and its not polished AT ALL [11:07] ubuntu is pretty polished as far as linux distros go [11:07] even though i dont personally like unity [11:07] i think its fine for my mothers pc [11:07] if D-Chymera1 is using huge files, is it safe to assume that it will be an external HDD, and not a flash drive ? [11:07] what don't you like about unity? [11:08] FleaFlicker, im just used to the traditional desktop [11:08] glick2: Did you have a support question? [11:08] I really like Unity. minimalistic, yet efficient [11:09] bgardner, uhh not at this exact moment [11:09] !ot | glick2 [11:09] glick2: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions.

[11:10] what does this means " how do i create completely unattended install for ubuntu " [11:12] ffio: with all the options set so the install never stops as it has the answers to the questions it asks [11:12] ffio: it means that you start the installer and it installs on its own, not asking you for any inputs like keyboard layout, language, time zone, account details, etc. all these values are read from a file, and the install does not need a user sitting in front of the machine to input the installer questions [11:12] hence, unattended install. [11:13] Aaruni: thanks now i understood, it was really simple lang good :) [11:13] ActionPa1snip: thanks :) [11:13] ffio: you're welcome [11:14] :) [11:15] Hello everyone [11:15] hello joako537 [11:17] Hi Aaruni :) [11:17] you have a question ?

[14:00] yeah got it :) [14:01] how I can disable hotkey 'alt' to not trigger that annoy tab?

[14:04] if I have xfreerdp on my path be default, e.g. /usr/bin/xfreerdp and I have another newer version in /top/freerdp/bin/xfreerdp. Why when I'm in the latter directory and I do ./xfreerdp do I execute the older version in /usr/bin ? [14:04] I'm not sure what it is , if you using Unity then press 'alt' [14:04] thanks genii :) [14:05] Anyone here with experience with juju? [14:05] I can get charms, but when I do juju --deploy it keeps bugging me with an SSH key error [14:05] Tantor: #juju is probably a better place to ask [14:06] LongCatTH: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Table_of_keyboard_shortcuts [14:06] Thanks [14:06] sure thing [14:06] !shortcut | LoganCloud [14:06] LoganCloud: Keyboard shortcuts can be set in System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts.

[14:10] joshu: if there is a binary of the same name and you use ./name then it will launch that binary and not the one in $PATH [14:10] I'm using the 'alt'+'shift' keys to changes keyboard layout, I often accidentally push that hud up :/ [14:11] ActionParsnip I've tried that but it for some reason is giving me the version of the older binary [14:12] joshu: try referencing the binary absolutey, may help [14:12] oh hell, whats the difference between the "AMD Catalyst™ Proprietary Display Driver" and the "AMD Catalyst™ OpenGL Driver" ? [14:12] joshu: are you sure about the version of the local copy? You can try to move the old one (/usr/bin) out of the way temporarily for test and see what executing the new local one gives you. [14:13] ActionParsnip MickS going to test both suggestions now [14:15] is that true that after every new version of ubuntu is released when we upgrade there are lot's of breakages ? [14:15] if i am updating form ubuntu 13.04 to ubuntu 13.10 ? [14:16] i would be running services like mysql and running web-servers.. [14:16] ffio: no. [14:16] ffio, not if you are using only default recommended packages. [14:16] varunendra: where can i know about those default recommended packages ? [14:17] ffio: If you're using the packages in our repositories, you shouldn't have problems. [14:17] Pici: so i can easily migrate to the newer version without much of a prob ? [14:17] Pici: ok :) [14:17] definitely i would be using all the packages from ubuntu repos. [14:17] ffio, breakage (possibly) occurs only if you are using third party packages (PPAs), or proprietary drivers. [14:18] varunendra: ok :) [14:20] hello [14:22] hi, it's really busy in ##linux, you guys are up on multimedia if anyone is so ... for basic user mm support, how many gstreamer does one put on sensibly? is most of them too many? the idea of "too many" affect windows a lot more i am sure, is there a "too many codecs" in linux even? :) [14:24] JoeSomebody: on ubuntu: install those codecs you need. [14:24] I'm trying to set up the automounter to take care of mounting my NFS share. It's not mounting. Are there logs somewhere that I can look at so that I can understand what's going on? [14:25] i guess i am wondering why there so many, i probably wont really understand the answer anyway LOL [14:26] talexb: if you add a line in /etc/fstab you can define the mount, you can add a line in /etc/rc.local to make it mount as fstab is processed before the network comes up [14:26] talexb: /var/log/messages [14:27] ActionParsnip, Hmm .. OK, I could try that route instead. [14:27] jemark, Odd .. /var/log/messages doesn't exist. [14:28] usr13: say what? [14:29] hi, i've got a weird bug related to ubuntu 13.04/skype/microsoft lifecam hd-5000. with the camera plugged in any notification sound is delayed a few seconds after the popup is shown, unplugged it's right as the popup is shown. [14:29] JoeSomebody: just install the lot [14:29] usr13: you must have had me confused with someone else [14:29] wish i could just not use skype(work related) [14:30] found one thing on google mentioning something similar and it didn't really have a solution === BadLarry_ is now known as BadLarry === samuel_ is now known as samuel [14:34] n80: do you see yourself in cheese? [14:36] ActionParsnip: the camera works fine, microphone fine. only issue is the delay in notification/call sounds in skype. [14:37] ActionParsnip: also, the light on the camera will blink 3-4 times prior while this delay is happening === owner_ is now known as Guest93626 [14:45] ActionParsnip took a while to find out what I was doing wrong. It was the right way to run the binary, but the binary was not the one I should have copied from another system and thus the version happened to be the same as the one on the user path. Thanks [14:48] n80: are there any bugs reported? [14:51] ActionParsnip: no, not that i could find === BadLarry_ is now known as BadLarry [14:54] i wanna to install version 5:0.7.15-dmo1.this is my repositories:http://pastebin.mozilla.org/2737820 === QuirkyQuirk is now known as QuirkyBunny [14:57] n80: i suggest you report a new bug [14:58] llrealmanll: mixing debian debs with ubuntu is not advised or supported and you will get a big mess [14:58] ActionParsnip: alright, should i find some more information or are the versions and camera model sufficient in the bug report? where do i report the bug? [14:58] n80: the bug guys will ask for the info as needed :) [14:58] n80: i suggest you run: ubuntu-bug skype to start the process [15:00] i get "Package skype does not exist" when running that [15:00] ActionParsnip: sorry for being a noob :/ [15:01] I can scan if I'm superuser and according to Brother's documentation by install this sudo dpkg -i --force-all brother-udev-rule-type1-1.0.0-1.all.deb I can scan as a normal user. However I installed, but I still need to be sudo for scanning to work. I found this https://github.com/afterdesign/nas-project#update-udev and uncommented those lines, but still not working. [15:02] n80: try: ubuntu-bug cheese then [15:03] i don't know if there's a log file that shows what's wrong. I tried dmesg and syslog but can't see anything [15:03] joshu: I've seen this, gimme a sec [15:04] joshu: http://superuser.com/questions/298298/scanning-only-works-under-sudo-ubuntu [15:04] update-rc.d -f ssh defaults 20 90 [15:04] what are the numbers pleas ?

Should I restart some daemon? [15:11] h22: Changes to that file should take effect immediately, unless perhaps you're using some caching application like squid [15:11] ActionParsnip so is that brother udev rule deb package useless? [15:13] ActionParsnip https://gist.github.com/anonymous/b5575431e129b021c7b3 [15:13] Trying to gain some disk space and looking in synaptic i see this nexuiz-textures is about half a gig.. How do i find out if taking this out will ruin my box and should i apt-get purge? [15:14] :) [15:15] genii: I do I check if I'm using caching app? [15:15] oh oops, it's a game and i just clicked and it said it's a game, never mind [15:15] genii: And If I am, How do I clear it? === Galatea is now known as Guest17010 [15:18] exit [15:20] h22: Are you using squid? [15:20] h22: Since there are so many of them you could be using, the best test is just to do something like add: 8.8.8.8 dnstest ...to /etc/hosts ( which is one of google's public dns servers) then do: sudo sync .... then try: ping -c5 dnstest ...to see if it works [15:21] genii, usr13.. I did `service network-manager restart` and it works. [15:25] irssi-mike: its part of the nexuiz game, thats all. If you remove it the game wont work [15:25] whoever hacked ubuntu forums is a tool.... whats the pont [15:25] point [15:25] irssi-mike: I suggest you remove old unused kernels [15:25] rhdenis: indeed [15:26] I want to get a second opinion. So if I have some executables installed in /root/bin and I want them to be accessed by everyone would I just run add /root/bin to /etc/environment's path variable? [15:27] i read that the russian hacker "Sputn1k_" who did it says he's not doing anything with the data, just proving a point.... what a tool [15:27] irssi-mike: bleachbit ran as root and user (with as many apps closed as possible) can clear temp files and logs. Watch settings that say they will take a long time and watch application settings r it will remove settings you want to keep [15:27] trying to run sudo ./configure on mod_wsgi-3.4, but it errorts out with the following.... https://privatepaste.com/d35f56dc28 .... any ideas? [15:28] Shadowandlight: you're missing apache components [15:28] Shadowandlight: isn't there a pre-compiled version of this module [15:28] Shadowandlight: why sudo for configure? also why are you using sudo when you are already root? [15:28] why are you compiling as root more to the point [15:28] sorry just trying to follow a set of instructions [15:28] Shadowandlight: what is the output of: cat /etc/issue [15:28] Shadowandlight:if possible I'd advise you to back away from what you are doing [15:29] root@ubuntu:/home/mod_wsgi-3.4# cat /etc/issue [15:29] Ubuntu 13.04 \n \l [15:29] root@ubuntu:/home/mod_wsgi-3.4# [15:29] Shadowandlight: what are you trying to compile?

[15:31] those ubuntu forums help poor people all over the world for "free"..... this hackers better lay low... [15:31] rhdenis: don't need any comment on it [15:31] yes i do, i was having permission errors installing a package last night so i ended up going into root to fix it [15:32] Shadowandlight: if you have permissions problems as "sudo" you sohuld not become root [15:32] Shadowandlight: sudo gives you all the permission root does [15:32] Shadowandlight: so why are you using sudo, if you are already root? It doesn't make any sense....? [15:33] well 1) i am extremely new to linux... 2) i dont really know what i am doing.. hence being here [15:33] either way - drop out of your root shell, install the package I gave you and you won't need to compile anything [15:33] Shadowandlight: you have been given a package name you can install to achieve what you need [15:33] sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-wsgi - shows already installed? [15:33] Shadowandlight: then it's already installed, job done [15:34] ok [15:34] ActionParsnip: http://pastebin.com/1cTMX2S2 Can I get rid of the "-23" and "lts-quantal" and just keep "-36" [15:34] hackers had a good rep, at least among the linux community... till now === luckybunny is now known as QuirkyBunny [15:34] rhdenis: are you unable to grasp that I've told you "no more comment is nessasary" [15:35] irssi-mike: you need the metapackage, just remove the -23 kernel, it'll save you about 110Mb space [15:35] ActionParsnip: ty [15:36] irssi-mike: uninstall unused apps too, if you use webmail you can uninstall thunderbird, and so on [15:37] irssi-mike: a default Ubuntu install has a lot of fluff, some of which you won't use. [15:38] ActionParsnip: thunderbird, on it [15:39] Hi, on Raring, after a reboot, desktop icons suddenly appeared... and I can't hide them away, even with Unity Tweak Tool. What's going on? [15:39] irssi-mike: stuff like that, emove the games if you don't use them [15:40] ActionParsnip: I was looking at synaptic at packages not yet installed but most of it seemed small apt-get clean got me the space to burn a disc, i needed /tmp space apparenty [15:40] <__raven> MYTHTV DB too old: how to update db on 12.04 backend-server to be compatible with 13.04 frontend?

It asked me to enter a new root pw for mysql and then this shows up http://i.imgur.com/lQSOmXb.png [16:29] oops [16:29] 11:29:01 up 5 min, 2 users, load average: 0.41, 0.47, 0.23 [16:30] DJSBX: ls /var/lib/dpkg/info/linux*list #Look at the last one on the list, compare to uname -r [16:31] DJSBX: ls /var/lib/dpkg/info/linux-image-3.2.0-48-generic #What does that say?

I tried to connect and nothing happens) === Galatea is now known as Guest25469 [16:36] ActionParsnip I tried to read man screen but I think I need someone to explain to me just what does screen do I didn't get it, I'm not a programmer. [16:37] is it good to go with encrypt the new ubuntu installaiton for security? [16:37] Ironsight: /join #ubuntu-offtopic [16:37] anonee: Screen is an app that is useful for people that remote login into their servers. It lets you run a program inside of it, and then when you logout, the process isn't lost. Then when you log back in, you can run screen and get back to what you were doing. [16:37] or will i have this option later on if i don't choose it now during installation [16:37] DJSBX: I'm looking at https://gist.github.com/DJSymBiotiX/1e03601f7af3f55804cb and see "he following package was automatically installed and is no longer required: linux-image-3.2.0-48-generic" It appears that the package manager has some conflict there. Maybe try removing some of the old kernels? (Work from top to bottom https://gist.github.com/DJSymBiotiX/1607a7f1f56fb890e174 and maybe just leave the last two. [16:38] DJSBX: And you might even use purge [16:38] But I dono if it would make a difference. [16:39] And then do: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade (again). [16:39] if i encrypt will i be able to install other linux OS's along side ubuntu [16:40] Hi, I need some basic help. [16:41] I'm giving my old laptop to my sister and she wants a fresh install, but for some reason I can't get the usb to work. [16:41] The computer already has Ubuntu 10.04 [16:41] Is there something I'm doing wrong? [16:42] bye [16:42] :) [16:42] anonee: For instance, say you want to run a game server, and be able to control it remotely… say at work. You run run screen, which will pull up a terminal. You then start the game server from that terminal inside of screen. Then when you want to logout, you press a certain keyboard shortcut that logs you out of screen. You can then at work, login via ssh and load up screen and check that your server is still running. [16:42] Kyubey: maybe your not tell the computer via bios which to select first either hdd or usb drive [16:42] Kyubey, First will the computer boot from a usb, does the bios show it? [16:42] usr13: so, completely and utterly removed any mysql stuff whatsoever from the server. Tried a new install https://gist.github.com/DJSymBiotiX/23f1116ec5d6f2af69a1 same issues [16:43] Has anyone seen this before when booting with a cd? -> http://ericmcaine.com/20130729_123808.jpeg [16:43] Where can I see where the computer boots from? [16:43] I wonder if it's a driver issue [16:43] -video [16:44] thiscantbegood--, shows servive unavailable [16:44] The link is bad? [16:44] Kyubey, Can you get to the bios? [16:44] ... [16:44] DJSBX: "mysql-server-5.5 is broken or not fully installed" [16:45] here http://oi43.tinypic.com/im01av.jpg [16:45] wilee-nilee: I don't know how. [16:45] hello, can somebody help me, i need to make home folders of all the computers on a local network be accessible to all.... [16:45] thiscantbegood--, Showed in opera, hit f5 0r f6 I forget which in the first gui and choose nomodeset and continus boot [16:45] Kyubey: you have to restart your computer and press f1 or f2 [16:45] Ironsight I installed deluge daemon, I don't need to use the box remotely but I need the app to start before i login, I followed the installation tutorial but I don't seem to understand what's going on, I added the init scripts "deluged.conf" and "deluge-web.conf" but the web interface is acting funny until I run this command $ screen -fa -d -S deluge-web -m deluge-web , and now with the help of this ps -ef | grep deluged | grep -v grep | awk {'print $2'} I f [16:45] ound out there are two instances of deluge-web and 2 deluged (which is the deluge daemon) running at the same time, which is not what I want :( [16:45] thanks [16:46] can you link me to that page [16:46] Kyubey: then once in bios, you can look up boot sequence to find out what the bios is telling the computer to boot first [16:46] usr13: hmm I think I figured it out [16:46] Kyubey, generally the power on splash tells you how to reach the bios and a boot from menu not in the bios. [16:46] and it's such a pissoff.... [16:47] that is, the home folders of all users, the users are the same on every machine, be available to everyone no matter at which machine they log in [16:47] thiscantbegood--, Use nicks, what page?

[16:48] thiscantbegood--, When you boot the live cd/usb there is a page that says try or install or check the memory, not the exact words, unless you have loaded a usb with unetbootin, that screen is bypassed. [16:49] anonee: I am not great with startup scripts [16:49] I tried pressing both F1 anf F2, F1 does nothing and F2 flashes the ubuntu logo, but ends up in the normal logging in screen [16:50] Kyubey, what is the computer model [16:50] Asus [16:50] Hello All. I foolhardedly tried to hibernate with an encrypted home disk. [16:50] Kyubey, asus what that is the manufacturer [16:50] UL20A [16:50] When I boot, the login screen is different [16:50] And when I log in, it just sits there without a mouse [16:51] Kyubey, I see on the web f2 start tapping that at powering on til you see the bios. [16:51] Where do I start looking for a solution to getting my system working again? [16:52] I don't care about hibernate, I was just curious what it would do. [16:52] But I do need my computer working again. [16:52] wilee-nilee: I'll try that [16:52] I have a fresh install of 12.04. Everything was working OK until I accidentally tried to install edubuntu from software center. Now the Application Search in the Unity dash is empty. Can anyone help me to get it working again or let me know an alternative to launch applications? [16:52] fyi. If mysql insnt installing properly, it might be because /tmp has incorrect permissions <_< [16:53] Heyyy, BIOS! [16:53] Kyubey, If that does not work here is my google search. https://www.google.com/search?hl=en&output=search&sclient=psy-ab&q=asus+UL20A+reach+bios&btnG=&gbv=1&sei=fp32Uf6vO6aWigK0nYB4 [16:54] Kyubey, Cool, put the usb first in the drive list, if you still get no boot there is another per-session boot from menu we cab use. [16:54] I got it. I have a feeling I had to do the same thing when I first installed Ubuntu. [16:54] can* [16:57] sup [16:57] ryan___, Logout and choose the ubuntu desktop and see if that fixes this, and don't just install stuff without knowing. [16:58] Hi, guys. Ubuntu 12.04 issue. Every time I put my computer in Suspend, when I open it back up later the screen repeatedly flashes, and computer is unresponsive. Screen is black, flashing white at rate of flashflash pause, flashflash pause, flashflash pause. Clicking, button pressing, nothing has result. Computer continues flashing until I turn it off. [16:58] DJSBX: ... or ownership ... [16:59] Anaxandridas: How much RAM do you have in this system? [17:01] usr13, I just tried to check and realised that I don't know how to see, in Ubuntu. [17:01] I bought the computer last week, and installed Ubuntu the day after. So... Don't know. [17:01] Anaxandridas: free [17:01] Free? [17:02] Anaxandridas: Or ls /proc/meminfo [17:02] Anaxandridas: Or cat /proc/meminfo [17:02] correction ^^^^^ [17:02] Ha, now it works! thanks for help, everybody! [17:02] Anaxandridas: Open a terminal, type "free" (without quotes), hit enter. [17:03] I did... Not sure which is RAM. I'm... Not exactly a computer genius, sorry. [17:03] Anaxandridas: free | pastebinit #Show us resulting URL [17:04] http://pastebin.com/n93Neh90, usr13. [17:04] And thank you for your patience. [17:04] cant do an update, says /boot is too full, easiest way to fix that? [17:05] dont say to install tweak tool it wont let me yet. [17:05] 13.04 [17:05] and please and thank you. for your time and paitence. [17:06] or point me in the right direction please. [17:06] Anaxandridas: free #Compare the first collum entry in the top row to one in the last row. [17:06] or bottom row [17:07] ... [17:07] Anaxandridas: So that issue is eliminated. (Swap is not too small.) [17:08] Glad you could tell that. I'm sorry I couldn't have been more use in the matter. [17:08] Like I said... Ubuntu noob. [17:08] So, any other ideas? [17:09] Is it fully updated? [17:09] Anaxandridas: sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get upgrade [17:10] Running now. Though, I've updated since I got the computer, and I've always had the suspend issue. [17:10] i want to install cinnamon desktop but there is no synaptic, i have the instructions for installing synaptic package manager but i want to know if cinnamon will get updates and be updated when i do sudo apt-get update [17:11] anybody home? [17:11] No. [17:12] c0nn3x0r_, 1500 people state your issue for help. [17:12] Ok, usr13... Any other "just in case" ideas before I test suspend a few times? [17:13] bro, i want to ask something [17:13] Anaxandridas: See if that helps, but other than that, just don't use suspend (If it doesn't work, don't use it). (In other words, that's all I have on the issue, maybe someone else does. ... You might try hybernate instead.) [17:13] c0nn3x0r_, Then ask it that is how this works. [17:14] !ask [17:14] 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 [17:14] hmm... this channel is ubuntu, rights? [17:14] c0nn3x0r_, What is the channel name? [17:14] usr13, I like the idea of hibernate. However, the only such button I've ever found is Suspend. How do I hibernate, in Cinnamon? [17:14] #ubuntu [17:14] http://www.howtogeek.com/113923/how-to-re-enable-hibernate-in-ubuntu-12.04/ [17:15] c0nn3x0r_, So what does that tell you windows help. ;) [17:15] why you choose ubuntu OS for your PC ? [17:15] Anaxandridas: I also see: http://askubuntu.com/questions/199071/problem-after-suspend-ubuntu-12-04 [17:16] !ot | c0nn3x0r_ [17:16] c0nn3x0r_: #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! [17:16] Thanks. I'd have googled it had I realised it was intentionally not there. APpreciate the links, thank you for the help. Have a good one :D [17:16] Anaxandridas: ... but doesn't look like much help ... [17:16] Anyone have any idea why changes using efibootmgr would be lost on reboot? [17:17] usr13, it was the only help proffered. That makes it good help :D [17:17] c0nn3x0r_ you should some case studies about ubuntu, to get an idea why [17:17] should read* [17:17] Anaxandridas: May be that suspend just won't work on your hardware under 12.04, (at least not right now). Just a speculation but.... [17:17] ZedGama3, Have you looked at the uefi wiki? [17:18] When they say that a NVidia driver is certified for Linux, what does that mean? [17:18] Yes, and many other resources. I haven't seen any references to this problem. [17:18] ZedGama3, This a uefi W8 dual boot efi generally means apple here. [17:18] I just ask, do you choose ubuntu OS for coding? hacking? or something else?? [17:18] netlar: Not much I'm afraid. (Baybe other opinions around but....) [17:18] c0nn3x0r_, This is support not chat. [17:18] This is a new PC, came with windows 8 [17:19] !uefi | ZedGama3 Take a look here. [17:19] ZedGama3 Take a look here.: 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 [17:19] I have the same problems when using easyBCD [17:19] netlar: ... I suppoes you'd have to ask the Nvidia people [17:19] *suppose* [17:19] ZedGama3, we don't support easybcd I think they have a channel, a forum for sure. [17:20] usr13: I just have my eye on the GTX660, want to see if it is worth it [17:20] oohh.. may i false to join the chat, im so sorry ;) [17:20] Both are having the same issue, it's like the bios isn't taking the change, but I don't know where to look for help at this point [17:20] how do i manually clear room in /boot? [17:21] is ubuntu launchpad down [17:21] netlar: https://www.google.com/search?q=+GTX660+Ubuntu&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a [17:21] ZedGama3, Adding a 3rd bootloader is not a wise move as well. [17:21] oldude67: use apt-get and remove old kernels. [17:21] I can change efi variables and they look fine. But once I reboot they return back to their original values [17:22] I was hoping to change UEFI to boot to grub, but it keeps going back to windows [17:22] Hey guys anybody had experience with the hud mx2? [17:22] oldude67: ls /var/lib/dpkg/info/linux-image*list #Compare with uname -r Start at top of list and work your way down. [17:23] yeah [17:23] this might be a minute. thank you usr13 [17:23] oldude67: NP [17:23] oldude67: Let us know if we can be of further assistance. [17:24] why is this command returning an error $ sudo apt-add-repository -y ppa:teejee2008/ppa [17:24] chrisw125, What release are you running? [17:25] wilee-nilee, technically elementary os [17:25] chrisw125, THat is not even close to being a ubuntu support issue I believe, nor is that OS. [17:26] sidney_: would help to include a pastebin of the error [17:26] chrisw125, If you are registered you might try ##linux [17:26] while-nilee, alright [17:28] chrisw125, I see #elementary-os & #elementary as well. [17:28] stupid question - whats the downside of creating a pv directly on a device like "pvcreate /dev/sdb" ie no partition table? [17:28] whilee-nilee, thought id get a better response here since it affects mosts distro's and is oddly device specific [17:28] isbric: There is none. [17:29] while-nilee, thanks though [17:29] chrisw125, Understandable, its just ubuntu support is all. ;) [17:29] one upside is that i wount have to strugle with big disks and fdisk [17:29] whilee-nilee, fair enough [17:29] ;) [17:29] Hi all, what is the recommended way to resize an encrypted ubuntu install? [17:30] http://pastebin.com/CTtz9MEN [17:30] trijntje, not encrypting to start with that is a kettle of smelly fish. [17:31] trism, http://pastebin.com/CTtz9MEN [17:31] wilee-nilee, unless you have a time machine I can borrow, thats not really usefull advice [17:32] trijntje: lmgtfy : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ResizeEncryptedPartitions [17:33] isbric, thanks, but that seems to be written for hardy, so I was wondering if there are more up to date instructions [17:34] need help with open source radeon driver [17:35] Hi,i just downloaded the Ubuntu 13.04 and i want to install it,but the problem is that on my HD i can have only 4 partitions,and i have them so i can't make a new one. Is there a way to install Ubuntu on a NTFS partition ? [17:35] trijntje: oh, i guess it's an interesting read anyway. === CyberJacob|Away is now known as CyberJacob [17:36] Steevca: probably, but it absolutely is not a good idea. you want a linux-native fs [17:36] Steevca, do you mean 4 primary partitions [17:36] sidney_: Oh yeah,i am stupid. I forgot about that. [17:36] isbric, yes, but it has all this complicated 'remove partition table, re create it with some offset' stuf that seems a recipe for disaster ;) [17:36] I just did a facepalm. [17:36] try to create an extended partition [17:37] sidney_: Yeah,thanks. [17:37] Steevca, No, you will have to lose one primary and put a extended in to have logical partitions for ubuntu. [17:37] trijntje: no no, encryption is the recipe ;) [17:38] Any idea how to use the disk usage analyzer tool if the home folder is encryped? [17:38] isbric, I blame windows, if it didn't need 60+ GB for just the OS I wouldn't be doing this in the first place [17:38] sidney_: I think the problem here is you are on debian wheezy, not ubuntu, so it can't find a supported distro on the ppa [17:39] platzhirsch, you mean boabab? It should run fine since home folder encryption is on a per-file basis [17:39] Steevca, Are you backed up in windows, an image/clone? [17:39] sidney_, Are you advising to add a extened to 4 primaries? [17:39] trijntje: it works. Though I cannot read what folder has how much storage [17:40] well im out, best of luck to you :) [17:40] home/platzhirsch and then I only see .ecryptfs [17:41] display is all broken like static in TV , using amd radeon hd 6450 with open source radeon drivers [17:41] please help [17:41] Steevca, One of the problems here is that windows 8 is a gpt so be sure to identify if you have a msdos or uefi setuo. [17:43] trijntje: well, it's reported [17:43] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/baobab/+bug/1184283 [17:43] Ubuntu bug 1184283 in baobab (Ubuntu) "baobab is not able to read a mounted encrypted home directory" [Undecided,Confirmed] [17:43] platzhirsch, are you using a live system?

I want to host my e-mails myself in order to (partially) prevent employees of my web host (and the NSA) snooping through my stuff. Would it be possible to setup a VPS with my e-mail server and then prevent employees from the cloud company to access the machine? [17:45] * genii ponders libsdl [17:46] Mosselman, Loosen the tin foil hat. ;) [17:46] wilee-nilee: you can if you want to [17:47] hardly a ubuntu support question [17:48] wilee-nilee: hardly helpful comment the last one [17:49] Mosselman: even if your handling of email is completely safe, how are you to ensure that everyone who receives your emails do the same? [17:49] wilee-nilee: also I think it is, since I am talking about using ubuntu [17:49] Sonderblade: that is true and something that I am willing to accept [17:49] still struggling to get scanning to work without sudo. There are many different methods that I've seen via google on how to fix this and I'd like to know what is preferred way of doing it. [17:49] Mosselman: you know that emails are sent across the internet, out of your ISP's gateways....for all to read [17:50] One is to modify /lib/udev/rules.d/40-libsane.rules" SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ENV{DEVTYPE}=="usb_device", MODE="0664" and change MODE to 0666 [17:50] Sonderblade: I am not going to e-mail plans for building bombs around and stuff, it is just that I'd like to prevent employee-x from having a look around [17:50] ikonia: I have thought about this enough and I am aware of the limitations with the conceptual elements [17:50] Mosselman: you clearly haven't [17:51] Mosselman: use pgp to encrypt your messages? [17:51] ikonia: explain to me why not [17:51] Mosselman: as you believe that the people hosting your server can be "locked out" [17:51] ikonia: you can never lockout anyone 100$ [17:51] 100% [17:51] Mosselman: Mosselman it's a vps - the person who controls the host will be able to access it [17:52] what's the difference between libdl.so.2 and libdl.so.1? [17:52] Mosselman also from setting up email servers and maintaining them it is tough stuff and you need to know many things to prevent spam etc [17:52] but right now my e-mails on my webhost's server are just open, so a privileged user can just cd around [17:52] Mosselman: yes, that is correct, thats how an email setup works [17:52] ubuntu is SO dead! We have pentest OS's now even fedora and pentoo has theirs. Ours is Kali-Linux so why stay with Ubuntu? [17:52] olskolirc: don't, if you don't need/like it, do'nt use it [17:53] olskolirc: ubuntu is not designed for pentesting eclusivily, so if it doesn't meet your needs, don't use it [17:53] ikonia, I've been on Ubuntu since 1996 when it first came out [17:53] ikonia: self hosting already solves part of the problem, but with many VPS setups an admin can still change or see your root password and login, I am looking for a way to make it so that I can only (easily) gain root [17:53] for example with 2 way authentication [17:53] upgrade to better now [17:53] olskolirc: what does that matter [17:53] Mosselman but this is pretty much true for anything. At some point you have to realise that today if you want total control of all of your info whether it's super secret stuff or not. There is no 100% way unless you unplug from the net. [17:53] Mosselman: running on a VPS does not change that [17:53] aren't we all pentesters? [17:53] olskolirc: Were you looking for some sort of support, or are you just here to rant? [17:53] really [17:53] Mosselman: the people who run the vps hosts - will always have access to your data [17:54] What is a Pentester [17:54] Pici, I was here when freenode started too [17:54] Mosselman then setup a server at home and the data resides in your vicinity and you have physical control [17:54] ikonia: I never said they can't [17:54] Mosselman: so why are you asking if you can do this [17:54] olskolirc: We don't care. [17:54] netlar someone who penetrates for a living :P [17:54] the legal way of saying hacker netlar [17:54] ikonia: you just want to be negative it seems [17:54] Mosselman: no, I'm being realistic [17:55] YOU don't Pici get a grip and move the f on [17:55] Mosselman: I can lie to you to be positive if you want, "sure sure, you can make it totally safe and block the people who run the hosts from your data" [17:55] ikonia: security is not black-white. you can have different levels [17:55] Mosselman: from your discussion view point, it's clear [17:56] ikonia, i used to admin here you stupid cunt [17:56] lets say normally an employee can even see your root password in his admin panel, then he can just access straight away for a little snoop [17:56] Mosselman: forget the admin pannel [17:56] Mosselman: the people who run the virtual hosting "host" will always have access to the virtual guest data [17:56] ikonia: if however I'd have some other form of extra authentication, lets say 2 way through mobile, he'd have to at least try harder [17:57] is there an easy way to tell if ive encrypted my backup drive, upgrading a few bits and dont want to risk losing access to my files [17:57] Mosselman: You're running your machine on someone else's hardware.

[17:58] deluge daemon indeed [17:58] pick ikonia, you just don't get the point, if you encrypt your drive for example they should not be able to access the data right?

[18:01] ikonia: If anything I have repeated what I said myself [18:01] Mosselman: not as I read in #ubuntu-server [18:01] could goole it but your all faster :) [18:01] Mosselman: I suggest you get on with it if you feel you are correct [18:01] dirtydaw1: recursive and force. You *need* the -r for directories. [18:01] dirtydaw1: just use the built-in man pages next time: man rm [18:02] pici and and others i thank you all again! [18:02] ikonia: I suggest you evaluate why it is that you want to waste time in a support chat to be condescending to people [18:03] Mosselman: I'm not doing that, I'm advising you that you do'nt need to do what you are trying to do - it's a waste and doesn't work as you fel [18:03] feel [18:03] Mosselman: you feel it is worth while and does work that way, in that case, whats the point of asking, stop asking and get on with "doing" [18:04] This is the udev rules files that Brother provides which they state should allow you to scan without superuser. https://gist.github.com/anonymous/f344694ca9950fe908eb I installed the deb and this file installs to /etc/udev/rules.d/40-brother-libsane-type1.rules but I still can't scan as a normal user.

Since the live usb isn't booting the normal installation should behave the same I guess :) [19:47] !init | goddard [19:47] goddard: Boot options: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions - To add/remove startup services, you can use the package 'bum', or update-rc.d - To add your own startup scripts, use /etc/rc.local - See also !grub and !dualboot - Making a boot floppy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto === schmidtm_ is now known as schmidtm [19:49] esing, Is this a dualboot and if so what's the other OS? === KindOne- is now known as KindOne [19:50] wilee-nilee Yes it should be dual boot. The other OS is Windows8 [19:50] And it's EFI [19:51] !uefi | esing Have you looked here. [19:51] esing Have you looked here.: 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 [19:51] I need some help. Trying to make this. http://uncommonsense2000.blogspot.com/2013/04/how-to-make-hybrid-android-liveusb-and.html Need a recommendation for a ~4+gb linux live dvd, compressed, that I can both use to make this and use in general as a bootable linux dvd. :) [19:52] esing, I did see various problems on the web with that gpu, but that uefi is more fun than you should be allowed to have. [19:52] I've never used linux before, hence why I'm asking in an ubuntu forum, I hear it's easier to use than other distros. [19:52] wonton_, Depends on the user realy. [19:53] alright im back [19:54] wonton_, I would use a usb. [19:54] I'm a computer nerd with dos and windows experience, but no linux experience. I plan to code, develop, use flash if possible, use google chrome if possible, etc. Tools I would like (in no particular order), include compilers, mono, a web browser, flash, etc. [19:55] im having this super annoying wifi issue, I have a realtek RTL8188CE wifi card and for some reason my wifi is sucking hard. I can connect to the internet just fine, but it is super slow. If it even works at all. Most of the time it just doesnt load. I have tried downloading drivers from their website to no avail. I really need to get this working. If anyone knows any solutions it would be great. I have tried googling but no [19:55] I have an intel mac with no hard drive, it may not boot from USB... hmm... I also have TONS of spare DVD's (and yes, a few flash drives)... but mostly DVD's, so regardless, I will make at least one DVD. [19:55] wilee-nilee Hm, so I better try it with 13.10, considering the haswell gpu issues [19:55] im using ubuntu 12.04 [19:55] wonton: make a dvd and try it out [19:55] You seem to misunderstand, THE LIVEDVD IS NECESSARY TO FORMAT THE USB FLASH DRIVE PROPERLY FOR BOOTING. [19:56] I am merely asking for your help selecting a good one so I don't have to throw it out after. [19:56] Sorry for yelling. [19:56] reisio: yes when you install it .. they assume you are setting it up as a 24/7 server [19:56] wonton_: we support ubuntu here, we don't make other distro recommendations, ask in ##linux [19:57] try lubuntu or ubuntu or xubuntu, they are all easy to pick up [19:57] wonton_, You have hardly even come close to explaining you goal here [19:57] I'm asking if anyone has an Ubuntu live DVD recommendation. [19:57] ^-^ [19:57] wonton_: go to ubuntu.com download and burn to dvd [19:57] is anyone able to help me? [19:58] I need to use a linux live CD to format my flash drive. I am looking for the most useful ubuntu distro. Most of the ones on ubuntu are about 1.6gb, way too small. I'm looking for something I'll get more life out of, a LiveDVD distro that will fill the DVD. :) I want one packed to the brim. [19:58] johnsmiththeman, Those cards can be problematic. [19:58] goddard: good times [19:58] johnsmiththeman: what happened when you tried the drivers from realtek? [19:58] Are there any 3+gb Ubuntu distros? [19:58] goddard: http://www.google.com/search?q=ubuntu%20disable%20apache%20start :) [19:59] they didnt make any difference that i can tell [19:59] wonton_: none supported here no [19:59] johnsmiththeman: perhaps an antenna issue? [19:59] no it was working fine under windows 7 yesterday [19:59] wonton you can download a live cd and download the tools you need [19:59] sectools.org [19:59] !uck | wonton_ [19:59] wonton_: uck is a tool that helps you customise official Ubuntu Live CDs (including Kubuntu/Xubuntu and Edubuntu) to your needs. See http://uck.sourceforge.net/ [20:00] esing, I would not assume a beta has better use for the gpu, but thats me. [20:00] johnsmiththeman: maybe try a newer kernel? [20:00] http://ubuntu-fr.org/ [20:01] i was wondering if it's possible to publish a website on ubuntu one [20:01] How would i do that? I just ran all the updates from update manager [20:01] r1d4a3, Stop posting garbage. [20:02] wilee-nilee Hm, I read this article https://spicious.com/sony-vaio-pro-11-with-ubuntu.html and there is this information "To install Ubuntu, you need to grab the Ubuntu 13.10 daily image. The 13.04 image doesn't correctly setup the GPU at boot. " === ubuntu is now known as Guest89945 [20:03] " doesn't correctly setup the GPU at boot. " <- Iam not sure if he's talking about the graphic boot parameters or actually X configuration [20:03] 2 $ [20:03] wilee-nilee, [20:03] esing, could be right could be wrong it is one webpage on the net [20:04] Hm, ye. I should try out then and see :) [20:04] windows donnate [20:04] what is the newest kernel version? [20:04] Now comes the fun part. XD Well, since I need to use Uck to make my livecd, does anyone have a suggestion of which LiveCD/Live dvd I should download to boot from/download and make Uck? The most generally useful one. (Recursion. XD) I'm heading over to linux, if anyone has any livedvd recommendations, you may reply here, in ##linux, or via direct message. Thanks.

[20:14] yes i tried [20:14] ls and everything [20:14] it's good [20:15] and you do have enough space there? ;P [20:15] :D [20:15] Ubuntu studio looks interesting. [20:15] 120gb or so [20:15] and my drive is 80gb [20:15] the internal one [20:15] bs= will give me the "empty" parts too? [20:16] dd will always give you the empty parts [20:16] thats how it works [20:16] ah, so what exactly is bs? [20:16] block size [20:16] see 'man dd' and the 10000's of dd examples online for its ussage [20:17] use bs, or else speeds will be very very slow. [20:17] Dr_willis: on the assumption that /media is on /dev/sda, won't that create a loop where dd is reading the output as part of the input? [20:17] hi, is there a PPC specific channel? [20:17] th0r, dd reads the Device directly. not the filesystem [20:17] odd1, you are NOT imageing the drive you are booting from are you? [20:18] no ofc [20:18] anddam: /msg alis list *bunt*ppc* [20:18] sda to sdc [20:18] Dr_willis: and that is why I listen in here.....something new every day . Thanks [20:18] sda is 80gb sdc is 400gb [20:18] odd1, and what do you plan on doing with this 80gb image file? [20:18] anddam: time to switch to Debian perhaps [20:18] reisio: "end of output", yep [20:18] Dr_willis: i'll mount it on windows... [20:19] and then use photorec to try to recover anything [20:19] well good luck with that. [20:19] http://www.osforensics.com/tools/mount-disk-images.html [20:19] i'll mount it with this [20:19] it might want an image of /dev/sda or it may be ok with /dev/sda1 but i guess trying sda first will be ok. [20:20] ya i was also a bit confused with that but imho thewhole disk is better [20:20] hopefully i get something back [20:20] odd1: photorec is available in linux [20:21] odd1: it's part of the testdisk package [20:21] I'll just ask: I'm trying to boot an old powerbook G4 with an ubuntu image from USB stick, I'm not sure how to make the USb stick bootable, the wiki instructions are a bit confusing and result in a APT device with an HFS partition that OF cannot access [20:22] histo: yeah i know, i also downloaded it on hiren, but win7 is my main pc, so there isnt rly much of a difference [20:22] and i tried running it on win and it works [20:22] Dr_willis: dd if=/dev/sda of=/media/ubuntu/temp/backups/hddimage.img bs=4M [20:23] so this is the whole command? [20:23] you will need sudo rights of course. ;) [20:23] ah yes :) [20:23] try it and see - it will take it some time to finish [20:23] ok, thanks! [20:23] you can watch the size from antoehr terminal and see it grow [20:23] odd1: does this drive have bad sectors? [20:23] watch 'ls -l /media/ubuntu/whatever/whatever/whatever.img' [20:24] if the disk has bad sectors or other hardware issues.. you should be using 'ddrescue' i imagine [20:24] +1 for all banks's acount [20:24] anddam: PPC? nasty. [20:24] histo: nope, not that i know of... i just messed it up by installing zorin os over it [20:25] i will honestly be suprised if any data is recoverable at all. [20:25] should i use spinrite first on it? [20:25] .txt ? [20:25] name.txt [20:25] r1d4a3, you are rambling on about somthing? [20:25] Hello.

[20:29] ALLTHECODE: wait some time. it did last some time in the first boot for me. but if nothing helps go to tty1 and remove that ppa with ppa-purge [20:30] ALLTHECODE, no idea. i dont use encryption. === BadLarry_ is now known as BadLarry [20:30] alt-ctrl-f1 thrugh f6 may get you to a console also.

I used it as instructed, but in the end I didn't see any updates, I'm guessing it went to the official repos to get 5.3.3 binaries. I'm guessing this is because the unofficial PPA was meant for 10.04 and I am running 10.10? Is there a way to fake the PPA to give me the updates? === Vampire0_ is now known as Vampire0 [21:35] beign that 10.04 is so far out of updates, I'm guessing 10.10 and 10.04 are fairly convergent by now, no? [21:35] jaenie: sounds like you've made a huge mess of your machine [21:36] don't think so it works fine... it just ignored the new ppa [21:36] you're meant to disable PPA' and remove software before upgrading [21:36] yes, as I said, i went through the instructions [21:36] disable which ppa? the official one? [21:37] 10.10 is out of support totally, but 10.04 is still in support for servers only. I'd recommending updating to 12.04 or newer and then trying again, unless your computer is too old for the newer versions [21:37] jaenie: yes, disable ALL PPA's [21:37] and 3rd party repos [21:37] and remove any software supplied by them [21:37] hyprvx, i wish i could [21:37] ikonia, why? [21:37] jaenie: because the software can cause conflicts [21:37] jaenie, what's the problem when you update? [21:37] as I said, i dont think anything was installed by them === nymous is now known as register === carlos is now known as Guest10359 [21:38] jaenie: it has to be - otherwise you wouldn't be using them [21:38] hyprvx, 12.04 is chock full of multi-head problems === register is now known as abyss42 [21:38] 12.1 or 13.04? [21:38] ikonia, i never said i was using software from the ppa, as I did say, i still have the only ones in place, even after removing, adding the new ppa, and then uninstalling [21:38] hyprvx: well, as he said 12.04 I assume he measn 12.04 [21:38] 12.04.02 [21:39] i did not say I have 12.04 [21:39] hi [21:39] i said, 10.04 [21:39] jaenie: then you didn't remove them for th upgrade [21:39] I was asking if he had tried 12.10 or 13.04 [21:39] jaenie: for the multi-head problems - you did [21:39] jaenie: that was the reference [21:39] hyprvx: he said 12.04 [21:39] 22:38 < jaenie> hyprvx, 12.04 is chock full of multi-head problems [21:39] help [21:39] hence why he's not using 12.04 [21:39] Guest10359: bravo, great problem description [21:39] i want to register please [21:39] ikonia: remove old php related items, add ppa, update, upgrade. that's the process. stil have the same php i had before I started. [21:40] and I asked if he had tried 12.10 or 13.04 as well as 12.04 [21:40] jaenie: yes, that's not what you're meant to do, but it's too late now [21:40] sorry iKonia [21:40] hyprvx: they are not LTS [21:40] ikonia, yes, your quoting me doesnt say that I actually upgraded. Some time ago, on another partition i attempted, and dropped the project after multiple attempts to get multi-head working as desired. [21:41] !register > Guest 10359 [21:41] jaenie: ok, then you've used a 10.04 repo with 10.10 - just as bad [21:41] !register > Guest10359 [21:41] Guest10359, please see my private message [21:41] but its actually done nothing [21:41] jaenie: thankfully the packages are problem locked to the version [21:41] since when reinstalling the software, after removing and adding the new ppa, the software came from official repos [21:42] Version: 5.3.3-1ubuntu9.10 [21:42] Maintainer: Ubuntu Developers [21:42] that's from $ aptitude show php5 [21:42] jaenie: we are getting a bit away from the problem, sorry, what is it you want to achieve === Guest10359 is now known as piranha_portugal [21:43] ikonia, to use those 10.04 php5.3.10 binaries, or even better to find a PPA with 5.3.10 for 10.10 [21:43] jaenie: don't mix versions [21:43] i have been unable to find a PPA for 10.10 and obviously have not been able to hack it with the 10.04 [21:43] at this point, i don't care about mixing versions [21:44] jaenie: well you really sould [21:44] well, aside from the religious discussion, is there a way to accomplish this, per my initial question? [21:44] jaenie: no-one is developing/packaging for 10.10 as it's EOL, so I'd consider trying to plan to move to a supported version === WhiteDawn_ is now known as WhiteDawn [21:44] ikonia, that would take us back to the other discussion regarding 12.04 [21:44] !info php5 lucid [21:44] php5 (source: php5): server-side, HTML-embedded scripting language (metapackage).

[21:46] dirtydaw1: repos removed [21:46] OerHeks: looks like as the repos have been archived, yes [21:46] jaenie: I am answering [21:47] jaenie: no-one is developing repos for 10.10 as the repos are archived, so you're best bet is to plan an upgrade to a supported version and work out the problems [21:47] you'd told me to do something orthagonol to the actual problem, which I've said I cannot do, as 12.04.02 is rife with multi-head problems [21:47] i know that would be the "best bet" except it doesnt work for other reasons [21:47] jaenie: I've not told you something orthagonol at all [21:47] so, i'm ok with doing what's not the "best bet" [21:47] jaenie: what others reasons, those are (hopefully) reasons we can work through as the distro is supported [21:48] wath do ppl think of shodan ? [21:48] anyone else gotten their google account password changed? [21:48] piranha_portugal: of wht ? [21:48] why are you not building php5 from source? [21:48] basso: nothing to do with ubuntu [21:48] ikonia, i've already spend enough time trying to get 12.04 to work. i don't have the time. [21:48] FleaFlicker: because that is a huge problem [21:48] jaenie: well, 10.10 is EOL so there are no repos [21:48] FleaFlicker, because if i could get the ansewr on how to trip aptitude to use the 10.04 ppa on my 10.10 system, i'd be done by now [21:48] ikonia ^^^^^ [21:48] jaenie: you can't [21:49] jaenie: the whole point are the packages are locked [21:49] egads, its like i'm on windows [21:49] jaenie: it's nothing like that [21:49] don't be silly [21:50] jaenie you're trying to make something work that's 'dead', don't reject every and any advice you're getting here [21:50] MonkeyDu1t, not sure if you're following along here, but i haven't. no one's given me advice yet that isn't a road I've already travelled [21:51] the rise of the meta... [21:51] jaenie: you could always contact the PPA maintainer and see if he'd consdier rebuilding and packaging for 10.10 [21:51] log in [21:51] quick question, I installed Skype, and the icon isn't showing up on the taskbar, any way I can force it to? [21:51] jaenie: it's very doubtful, but worth a punt if you're locked into the position you suggest your in [21:51] that's not a bad idea [21:52] i wish it were only a suggestion of a situation [21:52] jaenie: just so you're aware a lot of the multihead issues have been found and resolved/acceptable work around in place [21:53] hence why I suggested working through problems on a supported distro, but that of course is your call [21:54] ikonia, i wasted hours and hours in the past couple of months trying those out, waiting for updates, using edgers, compiliing on my own, etc, etc. its quite the comedy. FINALLY i get it all working just right with xfce... only to find the mouse gets stuck on the primary screen. known issues, multi-reported. no solution. [21:54] and its not an xfce issue [21:54] and it happens on ATI and Nvidia [21:54] helo [21:54] I'm not going to argue it - it's up to you, [21:54] lets distrurb you [21:54] what's up to me?

So first I installed Ubuntu 12.04 LTS on my Decktop AMD Phenom II x4 3.20 / RAM 4 / Mother: M4A78T-E / video: ASUS Radeon EAH5750 /HDD: checked - OK. Problem: the system randomly freezes: mouse doesn't work, no alt+ctrl+F1, no reaction by REUSIB. Then I installed 13.04 it is same situation but it is more like problem with video card with default driver as well with proprietary driver. I can not [23:07] install proprietary driver. I mean catalyst said that videocard not correct. [23:07] i tried that, but none fits what i like [23:07] Ntemis: I'm just stating that you said you only did one thing and in fact it is not true. By the way though webmin is not suggested nor recommended [23:07] i tried that in 'profiles' [23:07] !webmin | Ntemis [23:07] Ntemis: webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. [23:07] ferie, is ur dvr has web access? [23:08] sunnyjay: yep but it will only work whe i install a internet explore .cab file. [23:08] webmin is the defacto free server manage tool for many people [23:08] i cant find a free replacement [23:08] !ebox | Ntemis [23:08] Ntemis: zentyal is a web-based GUI interface for administering a server. It is designed to work with Ubuntu/Debian style configuration management. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Zentyal (Project formally known as eBox - including in Lucid/10.04). [23:08] if you know any please tell [23:08] deyneko: try go to default vga update the driver. and start over [23:09] when i run #easy_install pyasn1 it says easy_install not installed even thou i have already done apt-get install python-setuptools. PLEASE HELP! [23:09] ANYONE> [23:09] msata: nomal you do not use apt-get to python. [23:09] i think that cant do what webmin can [23:10] i will have a look though [23:10] msata: why are you using easy_install as root? [23:10] ferie, try safari browser on ubuntu [23:10] dunno what should i be using? [23:10] how do i install pyasn1 as root [23:10] sunnyjay: do safari support .cab files ? [23:10] ferie yes I tried but situation same - random freezing when I can only use reset buton. Actually I use same distributiv on a noutbook (I'm writing from it) - and it is OK [23:11] msata: ideally you would be using apt-get to install your python packages if you need them system-wide. Even better, if you need this for some sort of project, you would use virtualenv (and pip) [23:11] deyneko: can you get to a terminal on it. ? [23:11] msata: you can install this package using apt-get: sudo apt-get install python-pyasn1 [23:11] ferie, check this link http://www.filecrop.com/safari-browser.cab.html [23:11] after freezing no, but I have a time before freezing [23:12] thanks sunnyjay i will try whe safari [23:12] unable to locate package python-pyasn1 [23:12] ferie: hang on [23:12] ? [23:12] sunnyjay: is safari available for linux [23:12] ferie, let me know if it solves your problem [23:12] ferie: don't download anything from that site [23:12] ferie: it is not to be trusted [23:12] msata: what ubuntu version? [23:13] 12.04.02 [23:13] !who | msata [23:13] msata: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) [23:13] jrib: is this free? http://www.zentyal.com/pricing-editions/ [23:13] sunnyjay: open your computer and tag out the card start up remove the driver. and back whe the card [23:13] ferie: do you understand those files are high risk [23:13] jrib: 12.04.02 [23:13] !tab [23:13] You can use your key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. [23:13] Ntemis: I imagine the community edition is [23:13] ikonia: i know. i will not try [23:13] ferie: ok, great, just checking [23:14] yeah but no raid management for servers [23:14] so scrap [23:14] !info python-pyasn1 precise | msata [23:14] msata: python-pyasn1 (source: pyasn1): ASN.1 library for Python. In component main, is optional. Version 0.0.11a-1ubuntu1 (precise), package size 29 kB, installed size 229 kB [23:14] msata: run « sudo apt-get update » and try again [23:15] I have 1) mac mini, 2) a laptop, 3) network cables / router and 4) no monitor. Is there some way of installing ubuntu on the mac mini? i.e. some way for the mac mini to boot off a cd, which opens up a ssh port, which I can ssh in (over my LAN) from my laptop ... and then install from there [23:15] clj_newb_2345: burn ubuntu to cd - put ubuntu cd in mac mini, boot mac mini from cd, install ubuntu [23:15] I don't have an external monitor [23:15] clj_newb_2345: ooh I see [23:16] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/NetworkConsole might be what I want [23:16] jrib: zentyal-samba - Zentyal - File Sharing Service are those guys serious lol [23:16] webmin all the way! [23:16] scapyal [23:17] Ntemis: it's your server; just keep in mind it's not recommended nor supported [23:17] i can live without transmission bt [23:17] i will notify ppa guys [23:17] thanks for the help [23:18] jrib: you are correct it was the update [23:18] msata: cool [23:18] jrib: but for some reason it fails updating, i can't even do a wget on a site. but i can ping google? [23:18] ferie: about access to terminal - after freezing no, but I have a time before freezing [23:19] I'm having problems with draftSight. I have managed to install it using this tutorial http://linuxaideddesign.blogspot.co.uk/2012/03/draftsight-and-ubuntu-1204-lts-64bit.html However, when draftSight runs, most of the screen does not update and the mouse disappears when it moves over this non-updating region. It seems to be loading files as the drop-down lists show correct layers and linetypes from my drawing and the correct layout tabs but the drawin [23:19] So, I opened a minimized Konsole window and my computer restarted without actually turning off and closed all my programs [23:19] what [23:19] Kitt3n: sounds like your xserver crashed [23:20] deyneko: can you open the computer tag out the screen card, boot up and remove the driver. back whe the card and update. [23:20] ikonia, Okay? How can I check that out === BadLarry_ is now known as BadLarry [23:21] Kitt3n: re-test it [23:21] hey, I'm installing rEFInd on my system, and want to know if the gnuefi version would work on a system with UEFI. [23:21] does any one know? [23:21] jrib: i added 8.8.8.8 as a name server to /etc/resolv.conf and it started working [23:21] jrib: thanks dude! [23:22] Can someone help me diagnose a problem I am having with Xubuntu? I'm getting a ~60 second hang on login just after I put in my password. [23:22] ferie: sorry I didn't understand exactly... I have access to ubuntu files from windows. I can remove driver. But at present there are files for proprietary driver but system said that it use default one. [23:22] ikonia, I launched Konsole, minimized it and reopened it, boom same crash [23:23] Kitt3n: get a bug logged [23:23] ikonia, about? KDE's console emulator crashing and no idea what is actually doing it? [23:24] denwerko: so you can ssh to the computer or ? [23:24] ferie, yep, i can [23:24] sorry for afk [23:24] ehm, you probably got wrong name... deyneko ? [23:25] Kitt3n: I'd put it against the KDE desktop in general rather than konsole [23:25] Kitt3n: put all the details in [23:25] ikonia, Okay, I found something similar, and it's linked to AMD. Not a big surprise [23:25] denwerko: okay what the name of the card ? [23:25] Can someone help me diagnose a problem I am having with Xubuntu? I'm getting a ~60 second hang on login just after I put in my password. I have been having the problem for a few months, I haven't been able to figure out why. [23:25] ferie if you asking me about ssh - no I can not use it just don't know how [23:26] deyneko: i will help you [23:26] ikonia, yes, it's indeed AMD. I resized Konsole's window and the same thing happened. Fun. [23:26] ferie: ASUS Radeon EAH5750 [23:27] Kitt3n: get it logged, it's reproducable [23:27] anyone else having trouble updating through update manager in DE? [23:27] ikonia, it's already logged [23:27] deyneko: google putty and download it [23:27] Kitt3n: by you or someone else [23:27] Someone else having the same problem. [23:27] Kitt3n: ahh [23:27] hey I'm trying to create a deb from an open source project so I can build once and then move the binary product to other machines. I'm using this: sudo checkinstall -fstrans=no -install=no -pkgversion="1.1.0-beta1" -pkgname=freerdp -y -requires=libavcodec53 [23:28] ikonia, LONG ago too [23:28] never used check install so any feedback is welcome [23:28] joshu: don't do it [23:28] yooooooo [23:28] joshu: build packages properly [23:28] ferie OK I'will download === Guest97433 is now known as CheeseMasta [23:28] ikonia hey. is that difficult? [23:28] yeah buddy! [23:29] joshu: more work, but no, you should be able to manage fine [23:29] joshu: you know freerdp is in the repos already [23:29] ikonia old version [23:29] :( [23:29] joshu: do you need the newer version ? [23:30] yeah the ubuntu one is 1.0.1 and is broken. the freerdp-team have a PPA which is the newer stable one 1.0.2 but it too is broken. I've spent several days trying to get help with this, but in the end I've had to build it myself. [23:31] Hey guys, I'm running into a major issue here. Everytime I visit a particular website, X crashes. Here's a paste of the piped error by firefox http://paste.ubuntu.com/5927095/ I am using Ubuntu 13.04 [23:31] joshu: broken ? [23:31] hey guys. if I have two clients trying to modify an object A to the same server, how do i make sure that only one of the clients succeeds? [23:31] ikonia I go through the motions, cmake, make and then sudo make install. But now I want to move this to several ubuntu machines and I don't want to spend hours trying to figure out how to build a package. Otherwise I'll just have to copy over the whole build directory. [23:32] ikonia yeah printer redirection etc, the freerdp-team PPA won't even run for me at all [23:32] joshu: yeah, you want to build this into a proper package [23:32] so, does anyone know if gnuefi would work on UEFI? [23:33] I've dowloaded the putty [23:33] deyneko: i will msg you now much text i will sent you === BadLarry is now known as BadLarry_ [23:39] my irssi is flipping out. so maning quits and connects [23:40] ikonia is it a long procedure to build a package properly? any good guide, recipe that I can follow? [23:40] !packaging | joshu [23:40] joshu: The packaging guide is at http://developer.ubuntu.com/packaging/html/ - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/NewPackages for information on getting a package integrated into Ubuntu - Other developer resources are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment - See also !backports and !sponsoring [23:40] joshu: first one will be a bit messy, but you'll soon get the hang of it === QuirkyBunny is now known as luckybunny [23:43] ikonia http://developer.ubuntu.com/packaging/html/packaging-new-software.html#starting-a-package upstream tar ball do I need to download the git repo as a tar for this step? [23:44] joshu: just tar it up [23:45] !seen helol [23:45] I have no seen command [23:46] unix command to change a number of filenames [23:46] ok and should I remove ubuntu's bundled xfreerdp before building a package and installing it later to avoid conflicts or will mine overwrite ubuntu's version? [23:47] say like ls . | mv x*.rb x [23:47] delinquentme: use "rename" [23:49] jrib, example of how to rename all blahX.rb to blahX [23:50] delinquentme: rename 's/.rb$//' *X.rb [23:50] anyone have an idea on how to get freetype 2 / zlib support for PIL on Ubuntu? - https://privatepaste.com/26bf9ff106 [23:50] delinquentme: use rename with -n, so that it will not change anything. It will just tell you what it would do. Safer this way [23:51] Shadowandlight: doesn't the package have it? Where are you getting the output you pasted...? [23:51] jrib, noted [23:52] jrib: that output was from running "sudo apt-get install python-dev zlib1g-dev libfreetype6-dev" then "pip install --upgrade PIL" [23:52] Shadowandlight: pip is bad [23:53] easy_install then? [23:53] easy_install is bad [23:53] or apt-get? [23:53] Shadowandlight: why don't you use the "python-imaging" package with apt-get? Anyway, if you need to use pip (for example in virtualenv), install pillow, not PIL [23:54] ok good night [23:55] hey I installed Ubuntu on my HD on another computer than booted it off the computer i intend to use it on, and when I try to configure the ethernet that is on the motherboard I keep getting an "cannot find device eth0, failed to bring up eth0" error [23:55] I have configured the interfaces file correctly I beleive [23:55] vaskaloidis: does lspci show the ethernet card? [23:56] histo: yes it shows the motherboard ethernet jack, the extra ethernet card I have installed and the wireless ethernet card I have [23:57] vaskaloidis: does ifconfig show eth0? [23:57] no just lo [23:57] wait now eth1 came up [23:57] vaskaloidis: do you have multiple nics? [23:57] yes [23:57] histo: eth1 never showed up before [23:58] and idk how it did histo because I commented it out of the interfaces file
