| guest_01 | ferie: still dont follow. dont matter its not a big deal. just kind of annoying is all ill figure iut out eventually | 01:09 |
| shade34321 | Bah, found a promising link through superuser and it's a link to the ubuntu forums:/ | 01:09 |
| vaskaloidis | ferie: but also in my ifconfig I see lo and eth1 that are configured but in my interfaces file I have only configured eth0 and it gives me an error "cannot find device eth0" when I down an ifup -a | 01:10 |

| ferie | vaskaloidis: and if it use eth1 not so big problem. | 01:11 |
| vaskaloidis | ferie: but why is it saying eth1 when I have eth0 configured in interfaces | 01:11 |
| vaskaloidis | ferie: the echo name server command didn't work either because I still can't ping google | 01:12 |
| vaskaloidis | ferie: the ifconfig says my eth1 ip is 192.168.1.109 which is the ip I assigned for eth1 | 01:12 |
| ferie | vaskaloidis: look in /etc/resolv.conf | 01:12 |
| vaskaloidis | ferie: when I try to do that it says that the changes will be overwritten | 01:12 |

| ferie | vaskaloidis: yes it is okay | 01:13 |

| vaskaloidis | Loshki: so how does it ask me if I want it installed during ubuntu install?? | 01:16 |

| FleaFlicker | can you switch to DHCP pls? | 01:37 |
| vaskaloidis | I switched to DHCP | 01:38 |
| FleaFlicker | do hostname -I again pls | 01:38 |
| vaskaloidis | when I do if down eth0 (which is the DHCP interface I configured) it says it cannot find device eth0 | 01:38 |
| vaskaloidis | same IP FleaFlicker | 01:39 |
| vaskaloidis | hold on I am going to restart my computer and take out the extra Ethernet card I have FleaFlicker - what is the restart command? | 01:39 |
| vaskaloidis | FleaFlicker: shutdown command rather | 01:39 |
| FleaFlicker | sudo halt | 01:39 |
| vaskaloidis | no shutdown to remove PCI cards physically, | 01:40 |
| vaskaloidis | not halt | 01:40 |
| FleaFlicker | shutdown | 01:41 |
| FleaFlicker | should power down | 01:41 |
| vaskaloidis | no its stuck at "system halted" | 01:41 |
| pepper_chico | anyone here uses ubuntu inside parallels for mac? | 01:41 |
| vaskaloidis | and I can't input any commands | 01:41 |

| Aprel | hi is there any way to tell grub-install/update to ignore a drive from the bootable option? | 01:43 |
| Aprel | (short of unplugging the drive) | 01:44 |
| FleaFlicker | Aprel: are you talking about during install? | 01:45 |
| === dacs__ is now known as dacs | ||
| wilee-nilee | Aprel, Does the drive have a OS, grub is seeing something? | 01:46 |
| Aprel | Installed ubuntu to a flash drive but grub saw my hard drive, included that in the bootable option in the flash drive's grub, and now can't boot in flashdrive. I think it would be fixed if I could tell grub to only look at the flash drive's partition. | 01:46 |
| FleaFlicker | Aprel: so the bios screen bi-passes the flash drive? | 01:47 |
| Aprel | it gives some error like "can't find hd0" I think it's caused because the flash drive's grub is confused the the hard drive has been included in its grub, if that makes sense | 01:48 |
| wilee-nilee | Aprel, This s full install to the flash, and did you make sure the grub bootloader on that install went to the flash's mbr? | 01:48 |
| wilee-nilee | grub is designed to multiboot | 01:49 |
| Aprel | wilee-nilee: Not sure what you mean, but the hdd grub is fine. The flash drive's grub can't boot at all. | 01:49 |
| Arbition | Where can I go to ask about armhf versions of Ubuntu? | 01:50 |
| wilee-nilee | Aprel, Did you do a full install to the flash or load a ISO? | 01:50 |
| Arbition | or rather, information about the repos | 01:50 |
| Aprel | Sorry, I should clarify, I have ubuntu on hdd. Works fine. Installed ubuntu again on flash drive, which saw the hdd, and flash drive won't boot. Grub gives an error. | 01:50 |
| Arbition | I'm getting a 404 on libxml2 | 01:50 |
| Aprel | wilee-nilee: full install. | 01:50 |
| === carlos is now known as Guest19565 | ||
| wilee-nilee | Aprel, When you did that install did you do a manual install with the something other option? | 01:51 |
| wilee-nilee | on the flash | 01:51 |
| vaskaloidis | no FleaFlicker I had to manually restart it | 01:51 |
| vaskaloidis | FleaFlicker: and internet still won't work, I have DHCP configured in my interfaces file too | 01:51 |
| vaskaloidis | FleaFlicker: shouldn't that always work | 01:52 |
| Aprel | hdd grub works perfectly well, just I need the flashdrive to boot. Seems like its grub is confused because it's indexing the hdd as well. | 01:52 |
| wilee-nilee | Aprel, Can you answer questions exactly? | 01:52 |
| Aprel | wilee-nilee: yeah, on livecd, did "something else", set up my flash drive partition, didn't touch hdd partotion, and intsalled to hdd. | 01:53 |
| Arbition | Anyone know where I should be asking for assistance on Ubuntu ports to other platforms, specifically armhf? | 01:53 |
| Aprel | sorry, ^^flashdrive | 01:53 |
| somsip | !arm | Arbition | 01:53 |
| ubottu | Arbition: ARM is a specific (RISC) processor architecture used in a variety of applications such as handhelds and networkdevices. For more information see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM . For ARM specific support, stop by the #ubuntu-arm channel. | 01:53 |
| wilee-nilee | Aprel, Good, did yo make sure in the first something other screen that the grub dropdown was pointed at the flash's mbr? | 01:53 |
| Aprel | ^^installed to flashdrive | 01:53 |
| Arbition | thanks somsip | 01:54 |
| wilee-nilee | !who | Aprel | 01:54 |
| ubottu | Aprel: 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 :) | 01:54 |
| vaskaloidis | Any ideas why my interfaces file won't load | 01:55 |
| Aprel | wilee-nilee: I don't remember the installer bringing up a grub config screen, but I made a root ext4 partition with the installer on the flashdrive and installed there. Mounting the flashdrive, I see all the ubuntu files are there. | 01:56 |
| Aprel | To clarify, I have no problems booting my hdd; that grub wasn't touched and works perfectly. | 01:57 |
| wilee-nilee | Aprel, Ah, they key on that manual install is that the grub bootloader goes to the correct mbr, it sounds like it went to the HD, can you boot the flash by loading it to the internal HD's grub bootloader by running sudo update-grub in it. | 01:57 |
| vaskaloidis | I faintly got it to work FleaFlicker !! I had to use DHCP and somehow it worked | 01:58 |
| vaskaloidis | can I put an address setting under dhcp? | 01:58 |
| kingbeast | Hola! | 01:58 |
| vaskaloidis | I am trying to host a web server and I need a static IP for the port forwarding on my router | 01:59 |
| lkthomas | hey guys | 01:59 |
| FleaFlicker | vaskaloidis: that's fine, this is just to get at least one thing working | 01:59 |
| wilee-nilee | Aprel, we are hardly getting anywhere her with an easy fix, download this app in the internal, and run just the bootinfo summary and post the url generated. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair | 01:59 |
| lkthomas | I am trying to do X forard to display GUI application on windows desktop, but the unity theme can't keep at all, anyone have idea why ? | 01:59 |
| guest01 | no you need a dns server | 01:59 |
| vaskaloidis | FleaFlicker: can I put address underneath it and it will use that address or no? | 01:59 |
| FleaFlicker | vaskaloidis: are you now able to access the internet? | 02:00 |
| vaskaloidis | FleaFlicker: yes | 02:00 |
| Aprel | wilee-nilee: I think you're right. It added an index in my hdd's grub at some point. If I try to boot the flashdrive from there, it brought up a grub command line, which I didn't know hwat to do with. So I tried booting my hdd, then mounting the flashdrive, and playing with grub-install and update-grub, and screwed it up.... Now if I boot the flashdrive's index in my hdd grub, I get an error message, not even grub command line. | 02:00 |
| vaskaloidis | FleaFlicker: but I need static though because the whole point of the server is a web server and I need port forwarding to the same IP | 02:00 |
| guest01 | you need a dns sever | 02:00 |
| FleaFlicker | vaskaloidis: install what ever you have to install, then try to set the static ip again | 02:00 |
| vaskaloidis | what could be wrong with my interfaces config!? FleaFlicker | 02:01 |
| somsip | vaskaloidis: paste it | 02:01 |
| somsip | !paste | vaskaloidis | 02:01 |
| ubottu | vaskaloidis: For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://imagebin.org/?page=add | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. | 02:01 |
| wilee-nilee | Aprel, If you run sudo update-grub on the internal with th flash plugged in it should add it to the grub menu and allow you to boot to it. I this works we can load the grub bootloader to the flash's mbr from its desktop. | 02:02 |
| vaskaloidis | somsip: I didn't post any munti line texts? | 02:02 |
| vaskaloidis | somsip: lol read up? | 02:02 |
| FleaFlicker | vaskaloidis: how are you configuring the interfaces? | 02:02 |
| somsip | vaskaloidis: you asked what is wrong with your interfaces file. I suggested you paste it. The bot told you how to paste it. | 02:02 |
| vaskaloidis | somsip: ohh sorryI thought you were telling me I typed too long of a message LOL - I can't cut and paste because I don't have SSH working because I keep messing with my interfaces file | 02:03 |
| somsip | !pastebinit | vaskaloidis | 02:03 |
| ubottu | vaskaloidis: pastebinit is the command-line equivalent of !pastebin - Command output, or other text can be redirected to pastebinit, which then reports an URL containing the output - To use pastebinit, install the « pastebinit » package from a package manager - Simple usage: command | pastebinit -b http://paste.ubuntu.com | 02:03 |
| vaskaloidis | why does it say FleaFlicker that it can't read the interface file? did I mistype something? | 02:03 |
| T-Gunn | i am having trouble logging into my webserver with public key authentication... i have been away from a server environment for a couple months and forgot the exact command to use. im on a ubuntu VM box and already have the ssh keys set up on the server and my VM ... should i jsut be able to 'ssh user@server.com' and it automatically do it? | 02:04 |
| FleaFlicker | vaskaloidis: is this machine headless or no gui? | 02:04 |
| reisio | T-Gunn: or @ip | 02:04 |
| wilee-nilee | Aprel, There are several ways to load grub to a mbr, from the OS desktop it is easiest. | 02:04 |
| T-Gunn | ok ill try it with the ip | 02:05 |
| T-Gunn | thanks | 02:05 |
| T-Gunn | @reisio that worked, thanks! :) | 02:05 |

| === mike_ is now known as Guest69274 | ||
| cynicist | SamEEE: most likely it was installed to the usb drive incorrectly, best bet is to make sure the usb drive is formatted to fat32 and then use "sudo dd if=/path/to/iso of=/dev/sdX" where X is the letter of your usb drive. If you're unsure which is your usb drive you can use "df -h" to find out | 02:43 |
| FleaFlicker | waqstar: I dont know much about mysql, however, i would start looking at the log files and see why it is not starting | 02:44 |
| KalEl | what is a good computer algebra system for ubuntu? | 02:44 |

| wilee-nilee | tones, No by choosing it from the multisystem gui, it loads it and then you unplug it when told and plug back in. That loader though I have found only liking fat32 partitions made with gparted though. | 03:34 |
| wilee-nilee | it will resize the partition on the first install as well. | 03:35 |
| LuckySMack | xiaclo, yea i would much rather throw ubuntu on there. its the only distro seems to work as much as it does on the surface pro. | 03:35 |
| krz | xiaclo: i copied my bashrc file from anothre linux machine | 03:35 |
| krz | xiaclo: do i need to something else. i.e. permissions/sym link? | 03:35 |
| xiaclo | krz: shouldn't matter, as long as the file is readable ... do you have read permission to it? I would imagine so if you copied it | 03:35 |
| tones | wilee-nilee I drag the thumb drive into the multisystem device window, but it won't stay there | 03:36 |
| krz | xiaclo: what if i deleted it | 03:36 |
| Halyard | s-haha-n: http://askubuntu.com/questions/151049/how-to-deal-with-a-frozen-screen | 03:36 |
| krz | and started again | 03:36 |
| krz | would that be good xiaclo ? | 03:36 |
| wilee-nilee | tones, You only drag iso's there. Did you format the usb with gparted, if it is not showing in that gui youmay need to. | 03:37 |
| guest01 | thanks. doesnt seem to have what im looking for. basically, how do you scroll up, and how when you connect to a server can you see all the channels | 03:37 |
| xiaclo | krz: can you give the output of "ls -a ~/.bashrc" ? | 03:37 |
| tones | wilee-nilee, I right click formatted it | 03:37 |
| xiaclo | krz: sorry "ls -l ~/.bashrc" | 03:37 |
| wilee-nilee | tones, Do it in gparted the app is finicky | 03:38 |
| tones | ok | 03:38 |
| Arbition | guest01: ask in #irssi "/join irssi" without quotes | 03:38 |
| krz | xiaclo: -rw-r--r-- 1 christian christian 4405 Jul 30 11:03 /home/christian/.bashrc | 03:38 |
| guest01 | oh ok thanks | 03:38 |
| wilee-nilee | tones, It is an excellent multiloader just has some quirks. | 03:38 |
| xiaclo | krz: that makes no sense ... the "source ~/.bashrc" should work ... | 03:39 |
| tones | wilee-nilee, yes it is, I got it working before but it stopped | 03:39 |
| tones | maybe gparted is the thing | 03:39 |
| krz | xiaclo: -bash: source: filename argument required | 03:39 |
| krz | source: usage: source filename [arguments] | 03:39 |
| cynicist | s-haha-n: gnome-system-monitor | 03:39 |
| wilee-nilee | tones, You can clone it as well once it works if you want an easy reload if you have a big usb full of stuff, I would use clonezilla. | 03:39 |
| krz | i need an arguement after the filename? xiaclo | 03:39 |
| cynicist | s-haha-n: one of the very first things I do on a fresh ubuntu install is go to keyboard shortcuts and bind gnome-system-monitor to alt+ctrl+del | 03:40 |
| tones | wilee-nilee, good idea, but a few dozen isos on it and not have to mess with downloads for a while | 03:40 |
| wilee-nilee | tones, Yeah if I was a pro using it for customers I would have two identical usb's | 03:41 |
| s-haha-n | Halyard, cynicist thanks | 03:42 |
| cynicist | yw | 03:43 |
| s-haha-n | also I just ctrl+c'd a 'sudo apt-get install package' before it was done, how do i make sure that half writtien/half made stuff is gone and deleted? autoremove? | 03:43 |
| s-haha-n | like ctrl6c'd it in the middle of installation | 03:43 |
| s-haha-n | *ctrl+c'd | 03:44 |
| wilee-nilee | s-haha-n, Never stop installs while running | 03:44 |
| s-haha-n | wilee-nilee, oh crap | 03:44 |
| s-haha-n | wilee-nilee, it was wine, once i realised the 'sudo apt-get install wine' is outdated and i should've done 'sudo apt-get install wine1.4' .. i ctrl6c | 03:45 |
| xiaclo | s-haha-n: "sudo apt-get remove package; sudo apt-get autoremove" should fix you up | 03:45 |
| wilee-nilee | s-haha-n, YOu may need to run these commands to finish it then run a purge. sudo dpkg --configure -a then sudo apt-get -f install | 03:45 |
| s-haha-n | xiaclo, so i thought but it gives me all zeros when i do | 03:45 |
| xiaclo | s-haha-n: then it didn't finish the install correctly, maybe it was still downloading when you cancelled it? | 03:45 |
| s-haha-n | wilee-nilee, ? could you put quotes around the specifics... not sure i understand.. like.. 'sudo dpkg --(package here)' ? and 'sudo apt-get -f install' ?? | 03:46 |
| wilee-nilee | s-haha-n, sudo apt-get purge "the pacjakge installed" is what you run to get all or most of it, has to be fully installed first though. | 03:46 |
| s-haha-n | xiaclo, yeah it was | 03:46 |
| wilee-nilee | s-haha-n, No the quotes mean in this space | 03:47 |
| s-haha-n | wilee-nilee, ah yes , tried.. so it was not fully installed... | 03:47 |
| Arbition | guest01: Sorry, just noticed an issue with my suggested command. It should be "/join #irssi". I excluded the hash before | 03:47 |
| wilee-nilee | s-haha-n, Run the fisrt two commands to finish the install hopefully, and then run the purge | 03:47 |
| s-haha-n | wilee-nilee, errr.. :\ sorry which two commands? | 03:48 |
| wilee-nilee | s-haha-n, sudo dpkg --configure -a then sudo apt-get -f install | 03:48 |
| xiaclo | s-haha-n: apt-get is fairly hard to shoot yourself in the foot, if something really is half-installed, you can run "sudo apt-get -f install" to finish the installation, then remove it like normal | 03:49 |
| xiaclo | s-haha-n: if you don't, apt-get will actually complain that it's inconsistent and tell you to run apt-get -f install anyways | 03:49 |
| wilee-nilee | s-haha-n, The -f-install is designed to finish installs interupted | 03:49 |
| xiaclo | s-haha-n: As long as you don't type in "Yes, do as I say!", apt-get is pretty safe | 03:50 |
| s-haha-n | wilee-nilee, xiaclo i see... thank you very much, so you can remove a half installed thing, you have to let it go the whole way. and then remove the entire thing... gotcha | 03:50 |
| s-haha-n | *can't | 03:50 |
| wilee-nilee | s-haha-n, Cool easy mistake. ;) | 03:50 |
| xiaclo | s-haha-n: yeah, that the smoothest way, or what you did and just cancel it before the install section actually begins | 03:51 |
| s-haha-n | so what does "sudo dpkg --configure -a" do? i understand "-f install" | 03:51 |
| s-haha-n | err sorry... lemme just google that :D | 03:52 |

| guest01 | how do i check the encryption level on ssh | 04:05 |

| iampoz | I downloaded the driver from here: http://www.edimax.com/en/support_detail.php?pd_id=347&pl1_id=1&pl2_id= | 04:05 |
| bejker | after connect | 04:05 |
| wilee-nilee | iampoz, you cd to the folder | 04:06 |
| xiaclo | bejker: easiest way is to ping a full subnet "ping -b 192.168.0.0/16" and then "arp -a" | 04:06 |
| iampoz | I did that wilee-nilee, atleast I think i did | 04:06 |
| bejker | and they show all hw address? | 04:06 |

| wilee-nilee | iampoz, Is there a read in the download? | 04:07 |
| iampoz | yes | 04:07 |
| xiaclo | bejker: "arp -a" will show the arp cache, which is all MAC addresses accessed since last boot, so yes | 04:07 |

| thetinyjesus | usr13, just a random file i was testing to see if it would say permission denied | 04:58 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: Does this random file have a name? | 04:59 |
| thetinyjesus | usr13, i didnt even finish it lol | 04:59 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: The 80G ntfs partition is not even mounted right now. So what's the deal? | 05:00 |
| xiaclo | myersg: you can try installing libreoffice-gnome, that will fix some of the styling issues | 05:00 |
| thetinyjesus | yeah that is fine thats just windows crap, its the 332gb partition that was giving me issues | 05:01 |
| myersg | ...already have it installed.. | 05:01 |
| thetinyjesus | usr13, the 332 i tried to have auto mount on startup using the disks application | 05:01 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: Oh, (I thought you said it was the 80G partition). Ok. | 05:02 |
| thetinyjesus | usr13, i probably did, slightly buzzed | 05:02 |
| myersg | well..I am going to reboot..see if that helps.. | 05:02 |
| HypnotiX | Hello, what software is most similar to foobar for linux? | 05:03 |
| thetinyjesus | usr13, but it seemed to have worked fine since this most recent kernel update released today | 05:03 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: Ok. Well. Do this, (in a terminal), ls /mnt/A6B26694B26668AF | 05:03 |
| thetinyjesus | usr13, okay | 05:04 |
| thetinyjesus | usr13, listed the folders | 05:04 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: That's your Win7 install. Right? ( ls /mnt/A6B26694B26668AF shows your Win7 files. Right?) | 05:04 |
| thetinyjesus | no that is the 332gb partition | 05:05 |
| kennett | http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/5927748/ That's my automated installation file and I don't know why it keeps stopping at default route. Any ideas? | 05:05 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: Ok, then. What is the problem? (What exactly are you looking for?) | 05:05 |
| thetinyjesus | usr13, im not sure what would cause the permission errors | 05:06 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: ls /mnt/A6B26694B26668AF | pastebinit #Show us the URL. | 05:06 |
| thetinyjesus | ls /mnt/A6B26694B26668AF | pastebinit | 05:06 |

| usr13 | thetinyjesus: I'm trying to find out where the permissions problem is. | 05:09 |
| hewhomust | it might be a problem with windows | 05:09 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: You said it was somethimg that Firefox downloaded, Right? | 05:10 |
| thetinyjesus | usr13, http://paste.ubuntu.com/5927798/ | 05:10 |
| hewhomust | Is the problem that you cant access your ntfs partition? | 05:10 |
| thetinyjesus | usr13, firefox worked while transmission said permission denied | 05:10 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: Ok, so why does it say that all these files are owned by root? | 05:10 |
| thetinyjesus | usr13, no idea | 05:11 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: ls -l /home | pastebinit | 05:12 |
| caf4926 | thetinyjesus: have you considered having the partition set in fstab? | 05:12 |
| thetinyjesus | caf4926, not at all this literally just started happening tonight | 05:12 |
| thetinyjesus | usr13, http://paste.ubuntu.com/5927801/ | 05:12 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: Exactly where are you seeing an issue with not being able to access a file? Can you show us the error you get? | 05:15 |
| thetinyjesus | usr13, i can access the files perfectly fine, transmission was having an issue with downloading to the 302gb partition saying permission denied | 05:16 |
| caf4926 | thetinyjesus: the 320GB was mounted at the time? | 05:17 |
| caf4926 | 302GB | 05:17 |
| thetinyjesus | caf4926, it should have been, even after i opened up the folder to view the files and still had the permission denied | 05:17 |
| krz | ls -l .bashrc returns -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4461 Jul 30 13:15 .bashrc, how do i change the owner to christian? | 05:17 |
| test789 | test789 foo | 05:17 |
| thetinyjesus | caf4926, after unmounting the drive and going into disks and remounting, seemed to solve the issue but i know on reboot it will probably do the same | 05:18 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: So you are telling Firefox to download a file to /mnt/A6B26694B26668AF/Downloads ? | 05:18 |
| krz | anyone? | 05:18 |
| thetinyjesus | usr13, yes it did with no permission denied error, it seemed to be directly linked to transmission | 05:19 |
| caf4926 | krz: sudo chown christian .bashrc | 05:19 |
| caf4926 | *has to fly off | 05:21 |
| lodenrogue | hello guys. I'm having a scary issue. | 05:21 |
| thetinyjesus | usr13, after downloading today's new kernel headers is when it seemed to act like this | 05:21 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: Maybe you should pick a directory on that 325G partition, (or create one), and make a fstab entry for it. Okay? | 05:21 |
| lodenrogue | I installed a recommended update and whenever my computer starts up it crashes on an error screen and the caps lock starts blinking. Any idea how to fix this? | 05:21 |
| thetinyjesus | usr13, there a wiki or what not for fstab? never used it | 05:22 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: "it seemed to be directly linked to transmission".... I'm not sure what you mean by transmission. | 05:22 |
| thetinyjesus | transmission bit torrent client | 05:22 |
| thetinyjesus | pre-installed client | 05:22 |
| thetinyjesus | usr13, i bet you have been saying wtf is he talking about fixfox transmission to download for | 05:23 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: You need to plan this out. Pick a name that makes sense to you. (I'm not at all clear on what your goals are and what it is you really want to do, and I guess that only you can decide exactly what kind of mount point you would really want. but..... | 05:24 |
| lfuser-014 | )))))))))) | 05:24 |
| lodenrogue | Anyone available to help? | 05:24 |
| bejker | yes | 05:24 |
| lfuser-014 | yes | 05:25 |
| lodenrogue | I installed a recommended update and whenever my computer starts up it crashes on an error screen and the caps lock starts blinking. Any idea how to fix this? | 05:25 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: Yea, I don't know what the "transmissions" firefox download(s) are all about. | 05:25 |
| thetinyjesus | usr13, basically i am using the ntfs partition as you would an external HD and putting all media files on it | 05:25 |
| thetinyjesus | usr13, nothing but movies, music etc | 05:26 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: May I suggest making a new directory? | 05:26 |
| thetinyjesus | usr13, sure | 05:26 |
| bejker | lodenrogue: what update u instaled? | 05:26 |
| lodenrogue | the BIND update | 05:26 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: mkdir //mnt/A6B26694B26668AF | 05:26 |
| bejker | u have grub? | 05:26 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: mkdir /mnt/A6B26694B26668AF/Media | 05:27 |
| lodenrogue | bejker, not sure what that is | 05:27 |
| bejker | thise is boot loader | 05:27 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: | 05:27 |
| lodenrogue | bejker, then I probably don't have that | 05:27 |
| thetinyjesus | usr13, okay did that | 05:27 |
| bejker | something who show u kernel name after bios is finish | 05:27 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: "Media" is just a suggestion, but something like that will do. Now... create a fstab entry for it. | 05:27 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: First, create the mount point. | 05:28 |
| lodenrogue | Well if I press f12 I get some options. Right now I chose the "Use previous Linux Version" option. | 05:28 |
| bejker | lodenrogue: like small table where u can pres enter to chose what u want to run or wait 10sec to run automatic | 05:28 |
| bejker | lodenrogue: yest thise is grub what u use | 05:28 |
| lodenrogue | bejker, ok | 05:28 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: mkdir ~/Media | 05:29 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: Okay/ | 05:29 |
| bejker | so try to apt-get update | 05:29 |
| bejker | then | 05:29 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: Done? | 05:29 |
| bejker | apt-get upgrade | 05:29 |
| thetinyjesus | usr13, okay just did that | 05:29 |
| bejker | should be ok | 05:29 |
| lodenrogue | bejker, ok doing that now | 05:29 |
| bejker | ;] | 05:29 |
| thetinyjesus | usr13, im not sure how to do the fstab | 05:30 |
| bejker | i upgrade today to 3.2.0-51 kernel | 05:30 |
| bejker | and everything looks fine | 05:30 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: I'll show you. gksudo gedit /etc/fstab | 05:30 |
| lodenrogue | ok bejker I did those two things i will restart my computer now and see if that works | 05:30 |
| verses_ | Hi, unity2d fails to launch on my OS for the login I am currently using. For new logins that I created just now , works fine. I've been facing this issue from past few days. What could be a possible solution and in case if it's some critical where should I report it? | 05:30 |

| ThePieMan | do i need ti download ffmpeg along with winff? or only winff? | 05:50 |
| wilee-nilee | ryebread761, you might try nomodeset, sounds like a graphic driver issue, is this a kernel update? | 05:50 |
| ThePieMan | do i need to download ffmpeg along with winff? or only winff? | 05:50 |
| wilee-nilee | winff should work | 05:51 |

| wilee-nilee | ryebread761, Ah, well beyond my skill set besides trying nomodeset to get to de maybe. | 05:53 |
| verses_ | VLC works fine for me. | 05:53 |
| ryebread761 | How do I set that? | 05:53 |
| ryebread761 | I'm on the grub edit screen | 05:53 |
| ThePieMan | verses_, something what i can use for converting to webm or ogg | 05:53 |
| wilee-nilee | ryebread761, At grub menu hit e and put it in the area of ro splash | 05:53 |
| wilee-nilee | end of kernel is fine ryebread761 | 05:54 |

| kkiitt | run into interesting problem. POP mail works fine with evolution when using 3G ISP, but fails with home wireless. Any ideas where to look | 06:14 |

| mumpitze1 | kkiitt: use the home wireless and run "telnet <pop email host> 110 | 06:15 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: Change rw,user to auto,user,rw | 06:15 |
| thetinyjesus | usr13, okay all set | 06:15 |
| caf4926 | * I prefer this, JFYI: UUID=A6B26694B26668AF /home/thetinyjesus/Win7 ntfs defaults 0 0 | 06:16 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: sudo umount ~/Win7 | 06:16 |
| mumpitze1 | caf4926: I don't think "defaults" includes "user" | 06:16 |
| mumpitze1 | or rw | 06:16 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: mount ~/Win7 | 06:16 |
| mumpitze1 | also, if you mount it this way, I don't think the permissions are set right | 06:16 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: Ok? | 06:17 |
| thetinyjesus | usr13, so far yeah | 06:17 |
| thetinyjesus | usr13, did have to do sudo | 06:17 |
| thetinyjesus | usr13, not sure if that matters or not | 06:17 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: sudo mount ~/Win7 | 06:17 |
| thetinyjesus | usr13, yeah that worked | 06:17 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: ls ~/Win7 |grep Media | 06:17 |
| thetinyjesus | usr13, says Media | 06:18 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: Errors? ________yes? ________no? | 06:18 |
| thetinyjesus | usr13, no :P | 06:18 |
| usr13 | Ok good. | 06:18 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: ln -s ~/Win7/Media ~/Media | 06:19 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: Okay? | 06:19 |
| thetinyjesus | usr13, okay | 06:19 |
| ikonia | why do'nt you just mount it as ~/Media | 06:20 |
| thetinyjesus | usr13, the Win7 folder is on the home folder now linked to the 302gb partition | 06:20 |
| ikonia | why make the symlink ? | 06:20 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: That should do it. Now just put a file or two in that directory and see. You should have access. | 06:20 |
| ThePieMan | looks like there is no more silverlight support | 06:20 |
| ikonia | setting the file system to "ntfs" is the read only kernel module I believe | 06:20 |
| ThePieMan | silverlight is ended for ubuntu | 06:20 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: Yes, that is right. And "Media" is same on both. | 06:20 |
| thetinyjesus | usr13, yeah it allowed me to put a file in the directory | 06:20 |
| ikonia | ThePieMan: it's ended for Microsoft, so linux has no chance | 06:20 |
| thetinyjesus | usr13, you rock | 06:21 |
| ThePieMan | ikonia, hmm, i was talking about moonlight project | 06:21 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: Ok that should do it. (Sorry it took me so long. I make mistakes...) | 06:21 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: But you probably learned, (from my mistakes). Right? | 06:21 |
| thetinyjesus | usr13, psh you're way beyond my capabilities | 06:21 |
| thetinyjesus | usr13, lots yeah | 06:22 |
| thetinyjesus | usr13, really appreciate it | 06:22 |
| ikonia | usr13: why didn't you just mount it on ~/Media, why ~/Win7/Media and then symlink ? | 06:22 |

| usr13 | thetinyjesus: What we just did is now part of your capabilities. (If you do not have total-recal type memory, [don't feel bad I don't either] make some notes on this now.) | 06:23 |
| mumpitze1 | when one mounts a ntfs drive "mount /dev/sda2 /mnt". what are the permissions of the files on that drive? | 06:23 |
| thetinyjesus | usr13, yeah i don't my memory kicks in once i start doing something its like OH thats right! | 06:23 |
| usr13 | ikonia: Well, just seems a little feature rich to have both. | 06:24 |
| thetinyjesus | usr13, is it the fstab that allowed the folder to link to the home directory ? | 06:24 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: Yes. | 06:24 |
| thetinyjesus | usr13, awesome | 06:24 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: See man fstab | 06:24 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: It will be automatically mounted from now on, (as long as that line is in the fstab file). | 06:25 |
| thetinyjesus | usr13, thats what i have been looking to do since i began using ubuntu more than windows | 06:26 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: So, when you save videos in the Media directory in Win7, you'll see same ones in ~/Media in Ubuntu. Okay? | 06:26 |
| thetinyjesus | usr13, makes sense :) | 06:26 |
| kkiitt | help | 06:27 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: You can do the same with any other directory as well. Just create symlinks | 06:27 |
| thetinyjesus | usr13, it makes no difference if i save in win7/media or go to sda3 and save right? | 06:27 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: Right, they will be same place either way. | 06:28 |
| thetinyjesus | usr13, thats awesome | 06:29 |
| usr13 | thetinyjesus: Ok good. | 06:29 |
| thetinyjesus | usr13, again man thank you | 06:29 |

| Morg0th | hello, i have a problem after installing Ubuntu on a laptop: i had to add "acpi=off" to the kernel boot options otherwise the screen would be black. but when i add this option the wifi is hard-blocked (rfkill says hard blocked and the keyboard light is orange). when i remove the kernel option the light is blue (which is correct) but the screen does not work. any ideas of how i could fix this please? (i tried with ubuntu 12.04 and 13.04) | 06:53 |
| auronandace | !nomodeset | Morg0th | 06:54 |
| ubottu | Morg0th: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 06:54 |
| Morg0th | auronandace: thanks, but i tried to select nomodeset when i installed ubuntu 12.04, i also had a black screen. i also tried with "nolapic" but it didn't fix the problem either. i did not try nomodeset on 13.04 though, i'll try it but i doubt it changes anything if it didn't work on 12.04 | 06:56 |
| varunendra | !boot | Morg0th, have you tried other boot options as well? | 06:58 |
| ubottu | Morg0th, have you tried other boot options as well?: 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 | 06:58 |
| Morg0th | varunendra: i saw a topic about a black screen and i tried the 3 options they suggested, that means "acpi=off", "nolapic" and "nomodeset". only acpi=off worked for the screen but it messes with my wifi | 07:00 |

| GreekFreak | I am trying to update my server using aptitude update and I keep getting "Something wicked happened resolving (-11 - System error)". I tried removing the lock files, and not even the apt-get update --fix-missing works (same error). Any suggestions? | 07:46 |
| ikonia | GreekFreak: it can't resolve the host of the repo | 07:46 |
| GreekFreak | ikonia, which mean? Is that a problem on my server or where it's pulling from? | 07:47 |
| GreekFreak | *means | 07:47 |
| ikonia | GreekFreak: either, it could be your server failing to resolve it, or that host being removed from the public internet DNS | 07:48 |
| varunendra | GreekFreak, can you ping "archive.ubuntu.com"? | 07:48 |
| GreekFreak | ikonia, is there a way to find out which? | 07:48 |
| ikonia | GreekFreak: test your resolver manually, check the host out on the internet | 07:49 |
| ikonia | varunendra: where did he say the host archive.ubuntu.com was failing to resolve | 07:49 |
| GreekFreak | varunendra, ping archive.ubuntu.com says "ping: unknown host archive.ubuntu.com" | 07:49 |
| varunendra | ikonia, there ^^ ;) | 07:49 |

| bita | plz help me | 07:56 |
| varunendra | GreekFreak, I think you can add the nameservers to /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base file then. Not sure if you'll need to restart networking or something for it to take effect. | 07:56 |
| GreekFreak | varunendra, I'll try it and restart the server and let you know | 07:57 |
| varunendra | GreekFreak, you shouldn't need to restart the server, just networking at most.. | 07:57 |
| llutz | GreekFreak: add a line "dns-namersers 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4" to your /etc/network/interfaces | 07:57 |
| varunendra | yeah, probably the recommended method.. ^^ | 07:58 |
| GreekFreak | llutz, varunendra trying it now. | 07:58 |
| llutz | dns-nameservers* | 07:58 |
| GreekFreak | llutz, where in the file? | 07:59 |
| llutz | GreekFreak: in the part after "iface ethX ...." | 08:00 |
| GreekFreak | llutz, I ask cause I have 2 groups of the type "iface p5p1 inet static" which have the same thing in both | 08:00 |
| llutz | GreekFreak: your primary network interface congif | 08:00 |
| llutz | config | 08:00 |
| varunendra | whichever is connected to internet... | 08:01 |
| MrKaliman | Anyone experience with fan blowing constantly on a dell E-series (E5400) ? | 08:01 |
| GreekFreak | llutz, there is already a line dns-nameservers. I assume i simply add the new IPs, and not create a new one | 08:01 |
| llutz | GreekFreak: yes, or change the given IPs (if those do not work) | 08:01 |
| GreekFreak | llutz, I added them and saved. aptitude update still gives the same error | 08:03 |
| GreekFreak | am I supposed to restart anything? | 08:03 |
| GreekFreak | MrKaliman, is that a laptop? And is it a new one? | 08:04 |
| varunendra | MrKaliman, you may try "fancontrol" package. But will only help if your motherboard has required sensors on it to work with "lm-sensors". | 08:04 |
| MrKaliman | GreekFreak: yep it's a laptop, no not a new one (older model) | 08:04 |
| blazemore | MrKaliman: I know you have already used sensors-detect. Looking on Google it seems a lot of people (not just using Ubuntu) find the fan spins up all the time, but Dell released a BIOS fix | 08:05 |
| MrKaliman | installed i8kctl but fan speed is setting is for 1 second and then the fan increases to max speed again. This laptop is not official certified for ubuntu 13.04 ... | 08:05 |
| varunendra | GreekFreak, maybe try "ifdown" >> "ifup" and/or "sudo service networking restart". | 08:05 |
| Mattias | Which version is the mysql-server package? community or enterprise? | 08:06 |
| MrKaliman | blazemore: yesterday I upgraded the BIOS but no luck :-( | 08:06 |
| Mattias | I'd assume community? | 08:06 |
| llutz | GreekFreak: "sudo resolvconf -a p5p1" (or whatever your iface is named), then "sudo resolvconf -u" | 08:07 |
| llutz | varunendra: running "ifdown" on a remote host might kick you out, if oyu're connected via ssh/telnet... | 08:08 |
| GreekFreak | MrKaliman, I had a similar problem with my HP Pavilion g7. Not sure if it's the same thing, but my issue was the fan of my Graphics card. I couldn't intall the right drivers. | 08:08 |
| varunendra | llutz, I'm gonna keep note of those commands you suggested.. | 08:08 |
| varunendra | Oh, llutz, I forgot - Thanks! :D | 08:09 |
| MrKaliman | GreekFreak: Yep, read about these yesterday but not applicable to my problem. Hence thanks for the information. | 08:11 |

| GreekFreak | llutz, is it supposed to take long to do that command? | 08:13 |

Im trying to install ubuntu 13.04 on my laptop (hp pavillion g6) For some reason i get to the logo screen and ubuntu tells me it cant mount /tmp? the says press s to skip and m to manually fix.

| ghostlines | Good day, if I edit a firewall rule with iptables will it be reflected in ufw? | 08:50 |
| houser | mumpitzel, and its not working...and in apache log it said could not find sendmail...so i figured that was the problem | 08:50 |
| Benny_ | Blazemore_: yeah mate, tried this on 3 different discs and 2 bootable usb | 08:51 |
| mumpitzel | houser: sendmail is the wrong MTA to use for you. ubuntu already comes with exim or postfix | 08:51 |
| mumpitzel | houser: all MTAs provide a sendmail binary | 08:51 |
| houser | mumixam, hmm ok...why would it then be mentioned in the apache errorlog? | 08:51 |
| BlitzHere | Hi all. I just started the ubuntu netinstall with the locale set to English-India. That's fine but I don't like the number format xx,xx,xxx. I prefer the standard xxx,xxx,xxx. It is possible to change this later on? I did a google search for this but there are no results for number format - only for date format... | 08:52 |
| auronandace | Benny_: if the image you downloaded is corrupt then it doesn't matter how many disks you try it on | 08:52 |
| mumpitzel | BlitzHere: yes | 08:53 |

| Ponce17 | <ActionParsnip>> i have tried but I don t know why, i can't write in this channel | 08:58 |
| houser | mumpitzel, so instead of setting endmail_path = /usr/sbin/sendmail what should i send it to? | 08:58 |
| houser | +s | 08:58 |
| auronandace | !identify | Ponce17 | 08:58 |
| ubottu | Ponce17: You can identify automatically by using your NickServ password as the server password in your IRC client. When identifying manually, do NOT send the command from a channel's tab, as a typo will give away your password. If that happens, identify and then type « /msg NickServ set password <new-password> » in the server tab as soon as possible. | 08:58 |

| energizer1 | I'm trying to set up vnc. I dont understand the concept of local port forwarding, or why i want it. | 09:08 |
| bin__ | mumpitzel: I believe you don't understand the whole purpose of setting up an irc for Ubuntu | 09:09 |
| mumpitzel | energizer1: do you have a router? do you want to access VNC from outside your LAN? | 09:09 |
| bin__ | mumpitzel: or any IRC channel in that matter | 09:09 |
| energizer1 | mumpitzel: yes and yes | 09:09 |
| mumpitzel | bin__: then maybe stay with ubuntuforums or any other support channel of your choice? | 09:09 |
| mumpitzel | energizer1: then you need to do port forwarding on your router | 09:10 |
| alfreddba | is it possible to install monit on remote server and monitor from local browser...if possible pls guide me... | 09:10 |
| energizer1 | mumpitzel: i have port forwarding set up on my router | 09:10 |
| energizer1 | i have ssh working | 09:10 |
| energizer1 | (from outside the lan) | 09:10 |
| mumpitzel | energizer1: your router shields your local ubuntu from the internet: it's not possible to reach your ubuntu from the internet directly due to NAT. port forwarding makes it possible to access selected ports | 09:11 |
| mumpitzel | energizer1: good. do the same for port 5900 | 09:11 |
| energizer1 | mumpitzel: done | 09:11 |
| mumpitzel | or if you want to go through SSH for your VNC connections, you need to port forward with ssh (it can do that too) | 09:11 |
| energizer1 | what does that mean | 09:12 |
| auronandace | energizer1: using vnc through ssh makes it a lot more secure | 09:12 |
| mumpitzel | VNC isn't protected, it transmits all the data and passwords in cleartext, sniffable by everyone. ssh encrypts everything and is therefore more secure | 09:12 |
| energizer1 | ok suppose i want to do it through ssh | 09:13 |
| mumpitzel | then you need to port forward through ssh | 09:13 |
| energizer1 | sounds like thats different than port forwarding in the router. what does it mean? | 09:13 |
| mumpitzel | it means you can port forward via ssh too. yes it's done differently, the result is similar/the same however | 09:14 |
| energizer1 | alright how do i go about that | 09:15 |
| mumpitzel | what ssh client do you use when you are away from home? | 09:15 |
| energizer1 | openssh | 09:15 |

| Gilligan94 | roger | 09:38 |
| ActionParsnip | Gilligan94: what you can do though, is mount the NTFS partition as yuo expect then make the $HOME/Pictures folders be symlinks back to the NTFS, this gives central storage of files and is transparent to the user | 09:39 |

| energizer1 | ActionParsnip: Ok so i went into vino on my host-to-be and enabled viewing. Then on my laptop i type "ssh -L 5900:localhost:5900 my.server.com". This means I'm forwarding traffic from the host's port 5900 port to the client's 5900 port. Then on the client I open "SSL/SSH VNC Viewer" and connect to localhost, because the remote host's port is now located on the client's localhost:5900.

| Twenty-three | my graphics card is set properly and any other program will work fine with the data projector | 10:15 |
| Twenty-three | i wonder if this is a common problem and whether it has any solution, google hasn't given me anything related | 10:15 |
| ActionParsnip | Twenty-three: I suggest you report a bug, also try in a non-compositing session | 10:15 |

| energizer1 | ActionParsnip: In my "SSL/SSH VNC Viewer localhost:0" window, which appears after i run the ssh -L command, it asks me for "energizer@localhost's password", not my vino-VNC "Require the user to enter this password" password. Why does it do that? | 10:17 |
| ikonia | energizer1: your running ssh, it will ask you for the host your are ssh'ing into's password | 10:18 |
| energizer1 | i have public cryptography, so i dont have to password when i ssh normally. is it different for vnc? | 10:19 |

| anonymous418 | how to format pendrive completely and check any errors | 10:20 |
| ActionParsnip | anonymous418: use gparted | 10:20 |
| ikonia | anonymous418: just use gparted | 10:20 |
| anonymous418 | is it software | 10:21 |
| ikonia | yes | 10:21 |
| ActionParsnip | anonymous418: yes, how could it not be software?? | 10:21 |
| ActionParsnip | anonymous418: what else could it be? | 10:21 |
| anonymous418 | any alternative using terminal window | 10:21 |
| ikonia | anonymous418: parted or fdisk | 10:22 |
| ikonia | but I'd advise you to use gparted unless you know what you are doing | 10:22 |
| ActionParsnip | anonymous418: fdisk and mk2fs, you can even use parted in CLI, gparted is just a GUI for parted | 10:22 |
| Kaushik_ | #gnu-health | 10:22 |
| anonymous418 | i am newbie and i need clear explanation | 10:22 |
| ikonia | anonymous418: then use gparted | 10:22 |
| ActionParsnip | anonymous418: do you have a desktop OS? | 10:23 |
| ikonia | anonymous418: that is the best tool for a new user | 10:23 |
| anonymous418 | i love to use terminal | 10:23 |
| energizer | i think i understand. when i the SSH VNC window, its like logging into the host computer from the host computer, so it need a login. is that the proper interpertation? | 10:23 |
| ikonia | anonymous418: use gparted gui - it is the best tool for a new user to get this done correctly | 10:23 |
| ActionParsnip | anonymous418: then look into fdisk and mk2fs, if you want to format it to NTFS then use WIndows | 10:23 |

| anonymous418 | by doing | 10:24 |

| ikonia | anonymous418: we have helped you | 10:25 |

| anonymous418 | k thanku | 10:25 |
| energizer | ActionParsnip: im pretty psyched it works. thanks ap | 10:26 |
| ActionParsnip | anonymous418: fdisk can remove and add partitions as you need, you can format partitions using mk2fs | 10:26 |

| Taejix | Ubuntu has crashed for me and I'm not sure why. It's now refusing to boot and I have no idea what to do about it. What should my clueless self be doing about this? Should I just try to format and reinstall? I'd rather not loose the stuff I didn't have backed up. | 10:45 |
| ikonia | Taejix: what is the error when it trys to boot | 10:45 |
| Taejix | Errr... I'm not sure which bit of it I'm supposed to be looking for. Sorry. | 10:46 |
| ikonia | Taejix: you said it refuses to boot - what is the problem when you try to boot | 10:47 |
| Taejix | It goes straight to the terminal/command line/I'm not sure of the correct term here, spits out several lines of stuff I don't understand, and refuses to do anything. | 10:48 |
| ikonia | Taejix: when it goes to the command line, can you type ? | 10:48 |
| Taejix | Nope. | 10:48 |
| ikonia | you'll need to write down/take a photo/screen shot of the last few lines of the error you see and share it with the channel | 10:49 |

| LongCatTH | suicide salamander! | 11:12 |
| lind | hopefully 14.04 will be a solid release | 11:12 |
| Deepfriedice | HypnotiX1, Because you made it as root, and haven't set it as publicly writable yet. | 11:12 |
| FoxPaw | hey does anybody have issues with the 5.1 surround setup? | 11:13 |
| Deepfriedice | lind, I guess it's worth pointing out: year.month | 11:13 |
| lind | I'm not crazy about how ubuntu now makes money off your usage stats | 11:13 |
| lotuspsychje | FoxPaw: maybe you can describe your specific issue in chat here mate? | 11:13 |
| HypnotiX1 | Deepfriedice: and how do i give myself permision :) | 11:14 |
| ActionParsnip | lind: if you remove the feature, they don't..... | 11:14 |
| FoxPaw | I setup the pulse config file by uncommenting remixing enabled and lfe remixing | 11:14 |
| HypnotiX1 | i found it thanx | 11:15 |
| Deepfriedice | HypnotiX1, Ugh, that'll be fun. Start with "chmod 777 /path/to/mountpoint/". | 11:15 |
| FoxPaw | and sometimes when I boot my pc pulse fails to load | 11:15 |
| lind | I run Linux, Windows, and Mac depending on what I'm doing | 11:15 |
| ActionParsnip | Deepfriedice: please don't advise 777, ever | 11:15 |
| HypnotiX1 | it worked with sudo chown username /path | 11:15 |
| lotuspsychje | lind: please stick to ubuntu supporting questions | 11:16 |
| FoxPaw | so I have to disable those remixings and reboot, then enable them again and reboot again to enable everything | 11:16 |

| lind | kk | 11:16 |
| Deepfriedice | t that usualy prefarable to chown? | 11:16 |
| ActionParsnip | Deepfriedice: 777 is rarely practical or needed, you will more than likely cause things to break | 11:17 |

| Deepfriedice | ActionParsnip, on a removable drive? | 11:18 |
| ActionParsnip | I use it in interviews and never suggest people be chosen if they mention 777 as a solution | 11:18 |
| ActionParsnip | Deepfriedice: is it NTFS? | 11:19 |
| Deepfriedice | So, what would be the "correct" way to make a removable drive globally writeable? | 11:20 |
| Guest38025 | Hi all. I want to install ubuntu with full disk encryption, but the installer only gives this option when I replace windows, not when I select installing ubuntu alongside windows. What's going on? | 11:20 |
| ActionParsnip | Deepfriedice: depends on the file system | 11:20 |
| lolcat | Guest38025: Lol | 11:20 |
| lolcat | Guest38025: what encryption? | 11:20 |
| ActionParsnip | Deepfriedice: if it is NTFSm then it will be writable and no combination of Linux permissions will stick as NTFS cannot hold the permission | 11:21 |
| Deepfriedice | ActionParsnip, Sure, but on "real" file systems? | 11:21 |
| ActionParsnip | Deepfriedice: NTFS ejected properly WILL be user writable, idiot users who do not use the safe remove feature in their OS will get issues and will need to chkdsk and then safe remove. It will then work properly | 11:21 |
| Guest38025 | lolcat, full disk encryption, its an option in the installer | 11:21 |
| MonkeyDust | Guest38025 because 'full disk' means full disk, also the part where windows sits | 11:22 |
| ActionParsnip | Deepfriedice: on Linux file systems, the access is set like the OS access, You can give a+w recursive through the storage but that removes any ownership access restrictions in place | 11:22 |
| Deepfriedice | ActionParsnip, isn | 11:23 |
| Deepfriedice | Damn it. | 11:23 |
| Guest38025 | lolcat, MonkeyDust, thats just splitting hairs, then full disk encryption is impossible because /boot cannot be encrypted anyway | 11:23 |
| Deepfriedice | Isn't that just effectivly running chmod -R 777? | 11:23 |
| Deepfriedice | even if you don't use that commend? | 11:23 |
| MonkeyDust | Guest38025 i guest what you want, is 'full partition encryption' | 11:24 |
| MonkeyDust | guess* | 11:24 |
| lolcat | Guest38025: wrong. You cna place boot on another harddrive | 11:24 |
| Guest38025 | MonkeyDust, yes, full partition encryption for ubuntu | 11:25 |
| lotuspsychje | i got same blur in dash as in this url: http://askubuntu.com/questions/285525/dash-background-blur-problem on an older X800 ati card, any sugestions? | 11:25 |
| MonkeyDust | Guest38025 i have never seen that option | 11:25 |
| damana | kids play | 11:26 |
| Guest38025 | lolcat, so with your definition it's impossible to have full disk encryption if you only have a single harddisk. Thats what I mean with splitting hairs | 11:26 |
| MrGrobag | hi, if I set password for none, should I log out/in to finalize? now sudo ... ask me for password.. | 11:26 |
| cynicist | MonkeyDust: that's because the encryption option is only for your home folder not the full disk | 11:27 |
| cynicist | MonkeyDust: but yes there is a checkbox for it in the installer | 11:27 |
| MonkeyDust | cynicist address Guest38025 please | 11:27 |

| damana | lotuspsychje sure thing | 11:29 |
| ZIPY | Guest38025: u cant use full disk encryption with dualboot on same disk including windows | 11:29 |
| callmesid | no , instead it contains files with .roo , .ro1 etc format | 11:29 |
| ZIPY | Guest38025: but u can encrypt partition with ubuntu | 11:30 |
| hewhomust | MrGrobag, How did you select no password? | 11:30 |
| callmesid | hewhomust : no , instead it contains files with .roo , .ro1 etc format | 11:30 |
| Guest38025 | ZIPY, is there a way to do this from the graphical installer? | 11:30 |
| MrGrobag | hewhomust: User Accounts | 11:30 |
| MrGrobag | from the system setting | 11:31 |
| MrGrobag | s | 11:31 |

| hewhomust | MrGrobag, can you run apt-get update or anything? | 11:31 |
| ZIPY | Guest38025: can u choose lvm + encryption in gui? | 11:31 |
| callmesid | yes | 11:31 |
| callmesid | <ActionPa1snip> yes | 11:31 |
| Guest38025 | ZIPY, no, only when I choose replace windows | 11:31 |
| MrGrobag | hewhomust: currently ask me for enter password, but pressing enter on it (or write the old pass) gives back password asking | 11:32 |
| ActionPa1snip | callmesid: install unp too, makes life a lot easier | 11:32 |
| ZIPY | and when u choose manual partition instead of guided? | 11:32 |
| dacs | on a 13.04 how can i re-run the installer agian please, so that it can ask me again if this is a server, file server, media server, etc... | 11:32 |
| Guest38025 | ZIPY, then I can select a partition as 'physical volume for encryption', but then it doesn't ask for password on reboot and crashses with missing init | 11:34 |

| maxiPad3gs | ActionPa1snip: sorry | 11:35 |

| ActionPa1snip | maxiPad3gs: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/X220 shows it works out of the box | 11:35 |
| ActionPa1snip | maxiPad3gs: are there any bugs reported? | 11:36 |
| maxiPad3gs | ActionPa1snip: no it did work. I used synaptic to remove UbuntuOne client and i think i broke it. =removed a package supporting it? | 11:36 |
| hewhomust | MrGrobag, I would suggest changing your password then logging out | 11:36 |
| joshu | silly question but I want to double check. Is this command string ok to create a tar with correct permission that I can move to a different machine and it will be identical? tar -cvpzf backup.tar.gz | 11:37 |
| MrGrobag | hewhomust: tried, but the change button is grayed out so disabled :/ | 11:37 |
| ActionPa1snip | maxiPad3gs: doubt that will do it, you could reinstall it to see if its happier | 11:37 |

| maxiPad3gs | so there is no actual package that supports the USB 3.0 that i might have removed? | 11:38 |

| MrGrobag | np | 11:39 |

| hewhomust | MrGrobag, did you manage to change your password? | 11:39 |
| callmesid | how can i convert into an iso | 11:39 |

| Mattias | sudo su - user <-- this will pretty much be the same as if I logged in with that user right? or will the environment be different? | 11:39 |

Not having a positive experience right now... this is a series of problems I dont feel responsible for causing :( | 11:40 |
| ActionPa1snip | Mattias: you will become that user for the terminal session, the bashrc is read for that user | 11:40 |
| Mattias | great | 11:40 |
| Guest38025 | ZIPY, yeah, I guess I have to do it manually. Strange that hte ubunut installer doesn't support encryption of the windows partitions | 11:40 |
| Mattias | ActionPa1snip, Was thinking I might as well do that rather then logout, then login as them every time | 11:40 |
| ActionPa1snip | Mattias: that is why: sudo -i is advised over: sudo su it uses your own profile rather than root's | 11:40 |
| callmesid | i have rar file with r00 r01 files inside . how can i convert it into iso image | 11:40 |
| Mattias | oh | 11:40 |
| Mattias | rather than* | 11:41 |
| ZIPY | Guest38025: because windows has to be installed before ubuntu if u want dualboot | 11:41 |
| hewhomust | callmesid, you probably just want to extract them | 11:41 |
| Deepfriedice | callmesid, urar <firstfile> | 11:41 |
| Deepfriedice | Then just write the content to an ISO image. | 11:41 |
| ZIPY | Guest38025: and u cant install windows first if u use ubuntu to encrypt ^^ | 11:42 |
| Guest38025 | ZIPY, oops, I meant strange that ubuntu installer cannot encrypt only the *ubuntu* partition | 11:42 |

| jrib | dacs: so permissions are fine. Does the file do what you want when you execute it in a terminal? | 11:49 |
| varunendra | maxiPad3gs, then your usb 3 HUB is being handled by the correct driver "xhci_hcd". As far as I know, that is all you need for it to work at USB 3 speeds. What makes you think it has lost its speed? | 11:49 |
| dacs | jrib: yes | 11:49 |
| jrib | dacs: it's probably just a limitation of the gui that you can't launch executable files directly. Try creating a launcher | 11:50 |
| maxiPad3gs | varunendra: i can tell when i transfer large files. it works as a 2.0 it mayhelp to know that last night i was in where i should not have and removed ubuntu one client and maybe onother ubuntu one related package from synaptic packet manager.? could i have done something there? | 11:50 |
| ZIPY | Guest38025: i said crypttab, but there is no crypttab when full disk encryption since it is in the encrypted partition too. its all in grub | 11:51 |
| varunendra | maxiPad3gs, I don't think so. Like I mentioned, the driver is all that is responsible for the performance of the interface. It maybe the filesystem driver or something else that may be affecting the speed. At hardware handling level, it should be okay as much as I can tell. What medium you are transferring the file(s) to/from? | 11:53 |

| ActionPa1snip | maxiPad3gs: do you dual boot the system? | 11:55 |
| ZIPY | Guest21482: another option is backing up windows use full disk encryption and set the backup back to a new partition | 11:55 |
| maxiPad3gs | no i dont dual boot and it was working before so for sure i did this. i for sure broke this by removing a package or running conky or something I did. | 11:55 |

| lotuspsychje | odd1: photorec is for the data recovery | 12:28 |

| lotuspsychje | odd1: im sure the channel will recommend you most pro packages here | 12:38 |
| odd1 | blazemore, tried clementine, its not bad but nearly as good as foobar2000, + theres no way to customize the looks... u can make foobar2000 look exactly as you want | 12:39 |
| blazemore | yes foobar2000's interface is very customisable | 12:40 |
| blazemore | odd1: You could run foobar2000 through wine | 12:40 |
| Deepfriedice | odd1, foobar2000 seems to be one of the more-missed Windows programs | 12:40 |

| ActionPa1snip | cgtdk: pretty sweet | 15:19 |
| esing | blazemore Well, the author writes "The 13.04 image doesn't correctly setup the GPU at boot. " And you said the driver is there for sure for haswell in 13.04. So the authors means that only the configuration is wrong with 13.04? (So I can workaround the issue?) | 15:19 |
| cgtdk | lotuspsychje: Nothing is happening. I am considering using it. | 15:19 |
| blazemore | I might have been mistaken then esing | 15:19 |
| esing | blazemore What do you suggest me to do, try another linux distru? | 15:20 |
| esing | (or wait until ubuntu supports haswell igpu) | 15:20 |
| blazemore | esing: I think you have to use Ubuntu 13.10 daily builds, or use something more cutting edge like Arch | 15:21 |

| rsvp | blazemore, haha, OK gotcha. Thanks very much. (in the kindest sense ) | 15:33 |
| blazemore | neta: Since you would have had to make a conscious decision to use it, by running the Wubi installer from Windows | 15:34 |
| ActionPa1snip | jancoow_: considering it is a desktop, if you let screensaver hibernate you etc, is it ok? | 15:34 |
| blazemore | neta: I'd recommend just clearing up some space on your Ubuntu installation, rather than messing around with partitions. It's clear you don't *completely* understand it, and that's fine, but it just means its best not to go resizing them etc | 15:34 |
| ActionPa1snip | neta: if you run: mount | grep host do you see a line output? if so, it's wubi | 15:35 |

| jancoow_ | actionpa1snip: yes i know that i can trhow the motherboard away.. No the plan was make it wake on lan because i dont use it always (torrentserver, mysql, apache) so the first problem is it dont get in hibernate.. | 15:36 |

| jancoow_ | actionpa1snip: if the system do it automaticly then i have the same problem | 15:36 |
| neta | from the windows.. no CD or USB stick | 15:36 |
| blazemore | neta: Yes so you have wubi | 15:36 |
| neta | i don't think clearing would give my enough space | 15:37 |
| blazemore | !wubi | neta we don't generally recommend using wubi because it tends to cause more problems than it solves | 15:37 |

| blazemore | neta: You can uninstall Ubuntu through Wubi using the Programs and Features tool in Windows | 15:39 |
| blazemore | neta: And then reinstall it, but this time give it more space | 15:39 |
| blazemore | neta: Or, preferably, do a real install with real partitions, making sure you give your Ubuntu installation plenty of space when you're choosing with the slider - On large modern hard disks 20G is plenty | 15:40 |

| esing | (Instead of grub2) | 15:40 |
| blazemore | esing: I don't see why not, since grub doesn't boot windows directly, it just chainloads the Windows bootloader | 15:40 |

Unfortunately, in Windows the user can create, copy, delete files in the redirected folder which means they appear on UBuntu in | 16:02 |
| joshu | /home/test/scans. I want to prevent this. I have checked and it is not possible to do on the Windows side, so it has to be done on the client Ubuntu side. If I use chmod 444 then the user won't be able to scan to that folder. That's why I was doing the mount bind, remount ro | 16:02 |

| X-Sleepy-X | !cue | McDeffice perhaps this can help | 17:34 |

| ryebread761 | Oh - thanks | 17:37 |
| kboodu | linux-ninja: You'll need to look on the NetApp system. But I suspect it's not letting you alter the permissions. | 17:37 |

| adamk | ryebread761: Out of curiousity, what model video card is that? | 17:37 |
| ryebread761 | AMD Radeon HD 8750M | 17:38 |
| adamk | ryebread761: You may want to consider using the proprietary driver for a video card that new... | 17:38 |
| ryebread761 | I'll consider it | 17:38 |
| ryebread761 | Just pop these in /lib/firmware/radeon right? | 17:39 |
| adamk | ryebread761: Yep. | 17:39 |
| adamk | I only recommend the proprietary driver because the open source one won't have any 3D acceleration. I'm not sure about 2D acceleration.... That may or may not work. | 17:39 |

| l3d | ok I am running 12.10 and just started to get not enought room on boot partition that I should clean un used files . what should I do | 18:23 |
| wilee-nilee | ffio_, I'm back for about 20 min, do you have that script from the bootrepair ? | 18:23 |
| ffio_ | wilee-nilee: i fixed it :D | 18:24 |
| cgtdk | Morg0th: It would probably be helpful to those more knowledgeable than me if you tell us what kind of graphics card and driver you're using. | 18:24 |
| ffio_ | thanks mate :) | 18:24 |
| wilee-nilee | Morg0th, nomodeset is a low graphic run, have you checked additional drivers and can you add the graphic card to your queries? | 18:24 |
| wilee-nilee | ffio_, Cool. | 18:25 |
| Morg0th | indeed. i have an Intel Graphics card, i am currently using the default intel driver (installed with ubuntu) | 18:25 |
| wilee-nilee | ffio_, Not sure if that script helped it has a lot of info, but it can be really a great tool. | 18:25 |
| Morg0th | wilee-nilee: i have an Intel Graphics card. i did not try to install other drivers because hardware acceleration works fine with acpi=off.. this is frustrating | 18:27 |
| Morg0th | i'll try to check if i can find some other drivers then i guess | 18:27 |
| cgtdk | I'm not sure there are alternative drivers | 18:27 |
| cgtdk | I think there's only the official one | 18:27 |
| ffio_ | wilee-nilee: :) you seem to be an linux expert ? | 18:27 |
| wilee-nilee | Morg0th, I would investigate whether hardware acceleration works all that well anyway with this in linux, make sure your goals and understanding are in line. | 18:28 |
| wilee-nilee | this card that is | 18:28 |
| wilee-nilee | graphic cards and the bling involved in modern graphics are not as easily accessible in linux at times. | 18:29 |
| wilee-nilee | ffio_, Not really I'm familiar with grub but in a limited way, mainly I have to much free time, so I have spent a ton of time on the irc and helping on the ubuntu forums, it is a hobby really. | 18:31 |
| Morg0th | wilee-nilee: hmm i tried to see how well it's working when i don't add "nomodeset" and it works quite well. should i try to find something that works with nomodeset or should i get rid of this option? | 18:32 |
| ffio_ | wilee-nilee: that's great :) | 18:33 |
| wilee-nilee | Morg0th, nomodeset is generally used when one has no drivers that will even get a screen | 18:33 |
| Morg0th | wilee-nilee: ok i see. thanks for you help | 18:34 |
| wilee-nilee | ffio_, One advantage I have I think is that upon returning to college 6 years ago never having needed a computer, I happened to get a open source ubuntu setup to start on, so I never used windows until later. | 18:35 |

| ac_slater | Hey guys. I'm having some font issues here. I have my fonts in /usr/share/fonts/local/ and have updated my font cache, and can access these fonts in my consoles/urxvt. Though the font(s) in question arent recognized by their '-*-*....' strings. Any advice, etc ? | 18:42 |
| Orpheon | I need some help. I want to install steam on ubuntu 11.10, trying to install it the naive way gives me an error that libc6 isn't version >= 2.15 (which is correct). I googled and found a deb package of libc6 which installed correctly with dpkg, but now I'm having a few other packets (libc6_dev, libc6:i386, some other libraries) which are complaining of incompatible versions. Does anyone know a) a better way to install this stuff (upgrading i | 18:43 |
| Orpheon | s not an option) or b) at least a way to revert the changes and go back to the old libc6 v2.13? Thank you | 18:43 |
| lasers | ac_slater: Try xfontsel | 18:44 |
| ac_slater | lasers, it doesnt show up in xfontsel | 18:44 |
| lasers | ac_slater: /usr/local/share/fonts? | 18:45 |
| lasers | ac_slater: (or ~/.fonts, perhaps)? | 18:46 |
| ac_slater | lasers, either place the font is detected and I can use it. Except, 1) its not in xfontsel and things that need to access it by the '-*-*-*....' method cant. | 18:47 |

| aantoon | hi, i tried "boot-repair" and it did not fix my problem can someone take a look at this pastebin please http://paste.ubuntu.com/5930020/ | 19:05 |
| reisio | aantoon: and your problem is? | 19:05 |
| aantoon | 1 of two time's i cant get grub to load | 19:06 |
| Phantomas | reisio: Does it matter? He can solve it using "the simplest" way ;) | 19:06 |
| reisio | Phantomas: I answered the specific question you asked | 19:06 |
| reisio | Phantomas: did you have another? | 19:06 |
| reisio | aantoon: to load at all, or to boot the OS of your choice? | 19:06 |
| theadmin | aantoon: Sounds quite like a hardware problem. My old computer was this way. HD failure was the cause. | 19:07 |
| theadmin | aantoon: But I'm not 100% sure. | 19:07 |
| Phantomas | reisio: My question was obvious: "Is there a workaround for pam_mount to unmount a volume at the end of the session?" | 19:08 |
| Phantomas | reisio: I didn't ask "Is pam_mount fine?" | 19:08 |
| reisio | Phantomas: sure you did | 19:08 |
| zenpac | Does webex work in Ubuntu 64bit, with openjdk-jre-7? | 19:08 |
| reisio | zenpac: if it works on any distro, it also works on Ubuntu | 19:08 |
| reisio | and vice versa | 19:09 |
| reisio | moreover, if it works _simply_ on any distro, it probably also works simply on what many people consider to be the most popular distro (Ubuntu) | 19:09 |
| aantoon | reisio: to load at all, this is a fresh install 12.04 alternate 32bit. i can load but it gives me a black "nothing" screen firts, after hitting ctrl/alt/t i can get a terminal and ther it asks me for my luks pass | 19:09 |
| reisio | ctrl+alt+t?... | 19:10 |
| Phantomas | reisio: I'm not sure if I should keep this conversation going. If you have a solution to suggest to my problem (which, in case you haven't understood it yet, is unmounting a volume with pam_mount at the session end), feel free to do it. | 19:10 |
| aantoon | reisio: eh yes, teminal | 19:10 |
| reisio | Phantomas: thanks, I do feel free | 19:11 |

| theadmin | Is there a way to assign a file to "Open with..." the Windows way, i.e. by extension, not mime-type in Nautilus?

| aantoon | reisio: don't tell me you didn,t know this would start a terminal??? | 19:12 |
| reisio | theadmin: when you assign one to another type it assigns both? | 19:12 |
| reisio | aantoon: that doesn't answer my question | 19:12 |

| reisio | Henix_Aurorus: ha | 19:13 |
| reisio | Henix_Aurorus: CTRL+ALT+t, or ALT+f2 and type terminal | 19:13 |
| Henix_Aurorus | (Can you tell I'm new to linux?) | 19:13 |
| reisio | aantoon: if X is running, you're well past GRUB | 19:13 |
| reisio | aantoon: what was the problem, again? | 19:13 |
| reisio | Henix_Aurorus: no it's just that aantoon just mentioned that shortcut | 19:14 |
| === kboodu|AFK is now known as kboodu | ||

| choct155 | I have just installed Ubuntu 13.04 on a new laptop (dual-booting with Windows 8). The signal strength is great on the Windows side, but dismal on the Linux side. Is there a remedy out there I have not yet tried? I have attempted: 1. Disabling power management for my network adapter, 2. modifying the Avahi daemon via /etc/nsswitch.conf, 3. modifying ath9k.conf with the 'nohwcrypt = 1' option, 4. deactivating IPv6, 5. upgrading th | 19:14 |
| choct155 | e ubuntu kernel to 3.9.0-030900-generic. Computer = ASUS Q550LF, Adapter = Atheros AR9485. If there is a better place to ask, that would be useful as well. Thanks | 19:14 |
| reisio | theadmin: they have different extensions? | 19:14 |
| theadmin | reisio: Yes. | 19:15 |
| theadmin | reisio: Nautilus classifies them both as "SQLite3 Database", however. | 19:15 |
| theadmin | ...which is correct, indeed. | 19:15 |
| reisio | theadmin: interesting, I didn't know nautilus was that smart :) | 19:16 |
| theadmin | reisio: Most Linux file managers I know use the contents of the file to determine the type, with extension as fallback | 19:16 |

| Henix_Aurorus | Then why is it showing up in a dependancy error? | 19:38 |
| reisio | probably because it's a factor in the dependancy error | 19:38 |
| reisio | dependency* | 19:38 |
| Henix_Aurorus | But both dependcies it's displaying are present :| | 19:39 |
| theadmin | reisio: Or, the wrong version? Although... I don't think the version of libc changes within the same release | 19:39 |
| Henix_Aurorus | Also, don't mind the typoes- on a tablet. | 19:39 |
| theadmin | Henix_Aurorus: Maybe you're trying to install a package for an Ubuntu version that's different from yours? | 19:39 |
| Henix_Aurorus | Latst version of ndiswrapper | 19:40 |
| Henix_Aurorus | Already checked | 19:40 |
| Henix_Aurorus | And I'm 90% sure that -utils and -common are the same version | 19:41 |
| theadmin | Henix_Aurorus: No, that's not what I'm talking about. | 19:41 |
| zenpac | reisio: webex no work in 64bit ubuntyu | 19:41 |
| Henix_Aurorus | ... | 19:41 |
| mudkip908 | Henix_Aurorus: Do you really need ndiswrapper? | 19:41 |
| theadmin | Henix_Aurorus: I mean the Ubuntu version the packages are built for. You can't, for example, install 13.04 (raring) packages on 12.04 (precise) | 19:41 |
| Henix_Aurorus | Or, maybe they're not | 19:41 |
| mudkip908 | Henix_Aurorus: What kind of network card do you have? | 19:41 |
| Henix_Aurorus | WG311v3 | 19:42 |
| Henix_Aurorus | NETGEAR | 19:42 |
| mudkip908 | well, crap | 19:43 |
| mudkip908 | Looks like there isn't a native driver for it | 19:43 |
| mudkip908 | So, you do need ndiswapper. | 19:43 |
| mudkip908 | Honestly if it's giving you so much trouble it may be better to just go and buy a well supported wifi card | 19:43 |
| mudkip908 | Like AR9285 | 19:43 |
| Henix_Aurorus | Yeah, and I think I might know the problem | 19:43 |
| thecodethinker | My computer wakes up almost instantly after going to sleep. It usually works just fine (and always works fine when booted to windows.) Does anyone know a way to fix this? I have a thinkpad edge e531... if that helps | 19:44 |
| mudkip908 | Henix_Aurorus: What do you think is the problem? | 19:45 |
| Henix_Aurorus | Inconsistent versions | 19:45 |
| Henix_Aurorus | I think I grabbed the wrong version of ndiswrapper-utils | 19:46 |
| mudkip908 | Henix_Aurorus: I found a post on the Linux Mint forums from someone who claims to have found a working driver: forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=49&t=42823&start=0 | 19:46 |

| Gatorz | hello | 19:47 |
| Gatorz | I need some help with my ubuntu server please anything would be great thanks! | 19:47 |
| thecodethinker | Gatorz: whatcha need | 19:47 |
| joshu | not sure from googling can I use $HOME in an upstart script? | 19:47 |
| Myrtti | Gatorz: a proper question would assist a lot in the helping | 19:47 |
| Gatorz | pretty much the DNS isnt working correctly not sure why thecodethinker | 19:47 |
| thecodethinker | Gatorz: helps if you ask the question... people tend to get mad if u just say "I NEEDZ HEP" | 19:47 |
| Ben64 | joshu: probably not | 19:47 |
| Pici | joshu: probably, but it gets run as root so it is likely not what you want. | 19:47 |
| Gatorz | only one of the domains work out of the 12 | 19:48 |
| thecodethinker | Gatorz: well,..... did it ever work correctly? | 19:48 |
| mudkip908 | Henix_Aurorus: does your driver have a file called WG311V3.INF? | 19:48 |
| daftykins | Gatorz: check if there are router / nameserver IPs in /etc/resolv.conf | 19:48 |
| joshu | Pici Ben64 ok so just specify it as /home/test where needed? | 19:48 |
| Gatorz | alright | 19:48 |
| Pici | joshu: yes | 19:48 |
| joshu | Pici thanks | 19:48 |
| Gatorz | well daftykins | 19:48 |
| Henix_Aurorus | Mudkip908: yes | 19:48 |
| Gatorz | the resolv gives me the local address | 19:48 |
| Phys | Greetings. Could you guys help me with: http://pastebin.com/sQn2XXX4 | 19:48 |

| Gatorz | nameserver: 127.0.0.1 | 19:49 |
| mudkip908 | Henix_Aurorus: And does it have a SYS file with the same name? | 19:49 |
| Gatorz | daftykins | 19:49 |
| daftykins | Gatorz: then that'll only work if your system is running DNS. you'll have to change it to an external nameserver or your router | 19:49 |
| Gatorz | ah well, I am using a static IP can I just use that instead? | 19:49 |
| Henix_Aurorus | Mudkip908: yes it does | 19:50 |
| Gatorz | what about google DNS? | 19:50 |
| daftykins | Gatorz: sure, you can change it to google DNS. 8.8.8.8 | 19:50 |
| mudkip908 | Henix_Aurorus: CD to the directory with the driver, and run the following command: "sudo ndiswrapper -i WG311V3.INF" | 19:50 |
| reisio | zenpac: I doubt that, but I also don't care :) | 19:50 |
| Gatorz | nameserver 127.0.0.1 | 19:50 |
| Gatorz | nameserver 8.8.8.8 | 19:50 |
| Gatorz | nameserver 8.8.4.4 | 19:50 |
| Gatorz | so like that daftykins | 19:50 |
| daftykins | Gatorz: no you need to remove localhost. that's never going to work | 19:50 |
| Gatorz | ah | 19:50 |
| Henix_Aurorus | I alreadý did that | 19:50 |
| daftykins | Gatorz: test with 'nslookup example.com' | 19:51 |
| mudkip908 | Henix_Aurorus: What happened? | 19:51 |
| Gatorz | ah | 19:51 |
| Henix_Aurorus | The problem is sudo modprobe isn't recognizing ndiswrapper | 19:51 |
| Phys | I do not know how can I remove an compiled driver from my system. | 19:51 |
| Phys | http://pastebin.com/sQn2XXX4 | 19:51 |
| mudkip908 | What does modprobe have to do with it? | 19:51 |
| mudkip908 | Henix_Aurorus: Never mind... | 19:52 |
| Henix_Aurorus | So I can use the drivers | 19:52 |
| mudkip908 | Henix_Aurorus: Does the driver appear when you run "ndiswrapper -l" | 19:52 |
| mudkip908 | And does it say "hardware present"? | 19:52 |
| Gatorz | ah | 19:52 |
| Henix_Aurorus | yes | 19:52 |
| === randolph` is now known as rendoorf | ||

| l3d | boot is still 100% used how would I clean it ? | 19:57 |
| Henix_Aurorus | No lines that particularly stand out | 19:57 |
| auronandace | l3d: use synaptic to uninstall older kernels | 19:57 |

| Henix_Aurorus | Besides of course this really long one | 19:57 |
| mu | Phys: I'm stuck at the command line | 19:58 |
| mu | I changed the GDM theme and am now unable to login, so I seek to rollback the last change I've made to see if that helps | 19:58 |
| mudkip908 | Henix_Aurorus: Can you at least take a picture of it? | 19:58 |
| mu | Though I don't have a lot of faith in that approach | 19:58 |
| mudkip908 | Or type it out | 19:58 |
| Gatorz | hmm | 19:58 |
| Henix_Aurorus | Yeeeeeep | 19:58 |
| Gatorz | I still need a bit of help with this DNS | 19:58 |
| Gatorz | not sure what the issue is | 19:58 |
| Henix_Aurorus | The problem is my lack of -utils | 19:59 |
| Gatorz | I have triied to figure out why all the names arent showing up but, still am nore sure why | 19:59 |
| Henix_Aurorus | I just noticed the error at the top of my screen | 19:59 |
| mudkip908 | Henix_Aurorus: And you're having a problem installing -utils? | 19:59 |
| mu | Basically when I try to login with any user/root, I go to enter my password and everything hangs. I can still move my mouse and access GDM panels (accessibility/power/etc) but I can't seem to login | 19:59 |
| mu | It's weird. | 19:59 |
| Phys | mu, could you remove the gdm. I suggest that you log in tti mode, pressing alt + f1, startx, and do whatever you like! | 20:00 |
| Henix_Aurorus | ...I am half considering throwing this tableet at the tall | 20:00 |
| Henix_Aurorus | Wall* | 20:00 |
| mu | Phys: Yeah I guess I'll try that | 20:00 |
| Henix_Aurorus | And yeah, it gives me dependency errors | 20:00 |
| Henix_Aurorus | Which I think is related to non-matching versions | 20:01 |
| mudkip908 | Henix_Aurorus: I'll be back in 20 minutes. | 20:01 |
| Henix_Aurorus | That's okay, that's about as long as it'll take for me to get somewhere | 20:01 |

| mu | Well. | 20:02 |
| zenpac | Anyone had luck with Webex on Ubuntu 64bit | 20:02 |
| mu | I disabled GDM and did as you said, only to be greated with a password prompt when using startx | 20:02 |
| mu | Something about the login keyring not getting unlocked | 20:02 |
| mu | AND SAME THING. | 20:03 |
| mu | Ahem, same thing happens. Everything hangs. | 20:03 |
| mu | Oh I guess I can cancel | 20:03 |
| Gatorz | hmm | 20:03 |
| Gatorz | I think the DNS might have an issue | 20:03 |
| mu | I have a sneaking suspicion that GDM isn't the problem | 20:03 |

| thecodethinker | teresaejunior: I found it :P | 20:10 |

| reisio | ah | 20:12 |
| mu | But they are not interesting, no errors that I can find | 20:12 |
| reisio | why? :p | 20:12 |
| theadmin | thecodethinker: Someone can't into English :D I think they mean "quite enough" | 20:13 |
| mu | reisio: Well it seems whenever I use a particular theme for GDM, my system "hangs" at login when I enter in my passwrod, though the mouse and GDM itself functions fine | 20:13 |

| reisio | mu: neat | 20:13 |
| mu | I switch to the default theme and am able to login fine. | 20:13 |
| reisio | mu: you could eliminate parts of the theme until it works to narrow down the problematic file/s | 20:14 |

| Myrtti | mu: fyi GDM hasn't been used with Ubuntu by default for some time. So please ask in their channel | 20:15 |

| reisio | thecodethinker: clean off the trackpad with a damp cloth or paper towel | 20:16 |
| theadmin | mu: I think you can "vi /etc/gdm.conf" or whatever the file is | 20:16 |
| theadmin | mu: And edit the theme line there | 20:16 |
| theadmin | mu: I haven't used GDM much so can't tell | 20:16 |

| wilee-nilee | AmnesiaV, Running in a root terminal is a bad habit, use sudo. | 20:31 |
| wilee-nilee | ubuntu is not set to run that way | 20:31 |
| AmnesiaV | wilee-nilee: it's sudo -i, calm down :-) | 20:31 |

| teresaejunior | thecodethinker: ok | 20:40 |
| mudkip908 | Henix_Aurorus: Look if there's anything related to ndiswrapper in dmesg. | 20:40 |
| Ben64 | AmnesiaV: you should still look at the error it gives you | 20:40 |
| thecodethinker | teresaejunior: http://sprunge.us/DaUC | 20:40 |
| AmnesiaV | Ben64: I see it, as I said, it's a problem with apt changes and multiarch I think. t's trying to use the i386 one. There's a bug report for it but i don't understand it | 20:41 |
| Henix_Aurorus | I did just find something interesting | 20:41 |
| Ben64 | AmnesiaV: E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. | 20:41 |
| Henix_Aurorus | Lp: driver loaded but no devices found | 20:41 |
| thecodethinker | teresaejunior: is that better? | 20:41 |
| teresaejunior | thecodethinker: yes, the scripts spit a few errors, but none of them really seems to fail... | 20:42 |
| Henix_Aurorus | Don't know if that's related but I felt I'd mention it | 20:42 |
| mudkip908 | Henix_Aurorus: Maybe reboot? I really don't know at this point. | 20:42 |
| thecodethinker | teresaejunior: the computer goes to sleep. but then instantly wakes up | 20:43 |
| Henix_Aurorus | The weird thing is I already ebooted | 20:43 |
| AmnesiaV | Ben64: I don't though: the break is becuase it's confused over mulltiarch. If i do "dpkg --get-selections | grep hold" it's all OK, and I can install other packages | 20:43 |
| teresaejunior | thecodethinker: yes, after 5 seconds, it seems... | 20:43 |
| Ben64 | AmnesiaV: its not because of multiarch | 20:44 |
| thecodethinker | teresaejunior: really? it seems instant from here | 20:44 |
| teresaejunior | thecodethinker: has nothing to do with wpa_supplicant, actually... | 20:44 |
| Henix_Aurorus | Okay, I'm going to try something | 20:44 |
| thecodethinker | teresaejunior: does it say what's waking it up? | 20:44 |
| mudkip908 | Henix_Aurorus: What are you gonna try? | 20:44 |
| teresaejunior | thecodethinker: no, see from Tue Jul 30 16:38:50 EDT 2013: performing suspend | 20:45 |
| Henix_Aurorus | What was the command to uninstall a package again? | 20:45 |
| AmnesiaV | Ben64: OK, I'll accept that if you say it. But I'm sure I have no broken packages and I can install or deinstall other stuff fine. However there is a bug report for this package (wine) and I don't understand it | 20:45 |
| mudkip908 | Henix_Aurorus: apt-get remove <package> | 20:45 |
| Ben64 | AmnesiaV: the most likely problem is you have too many PPAs or something else that is messing with wine's dependencies | 20:46 |
| thecodethinker | teresaejunior: well that's just dandy | 20:46 |
| AmnesiaV | Ben64: All I have is google chrome and medibuntu | 20:46 |
| Ben64 | might be medibuntu | 20:47 |
| wilee-nilee | medibunutu is not supported anymore | 20:47 |
| teresaejunior | thecodethinker: the problem doesn't seem to be with pm-utils, you could try some other kernel to see if it works... | 20:47 |
| thecodethinker | teresaejunior: okay hold on a second. I'll boot to an older kernal | 20:48 |
| thecodethinker | teresaejunior: it seems to work on this kernel | 20:51 |
| thecodethinker | teresaejunior: I guess it's a bug with the newest kernel? | 20:51 |
| teresaejunior | thecodethinker: probably, which version? | 20:51 |
| thecodethinker | teresaejunior: this is 3.8.0-19 and the newer one i think is 3.8.0-27 | 20:52 |

| blazemore | mojtaba: If you back up your entire /home/<username> folder you will be backing up all your personal application settings | 21:27 |
| wilee-nilee | ah still possible | 21:27 |
| mwic | Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS \n \l | 21:27 |
| wilee-nilee | if you can type you can use a nick | 21:27 |
| dak0 | blazemore, even the app and Ubuntu settings? | 21:27 |
| mojtaba | blazemore: Is there any other directory which I should care about it? | 21:27 |
| MonkeyDust | mwic and on the other side? | 21:27 |
| mwic | Centos 5.5 | 21:28 |
| reisio | mwic: over what, LAN? | 21:28 |
| mojtaba | dak0: Is there any other directory which I should take care about it? | 21:28 |
| mudkip908 | Henix_Aurorus: Download packages.ubuntu.com/raring/ndiswrapper-dkms and packages.ubuntu.com/raring/ndiswrapper-source | 21:28 |
| mwic | reisio, no this is over internet | 21:28 |
| dak0 | mojtaba: I wonder that too | 21:28 |
| mwic | The same rsync worked okay from another box (Fedora 18) last week | 21:28 |
| reisio | mwic: what makes you think uploading 300MB will take less than a few minutes? | 21:29 |
| mwic | reisio, I can watch the file grow from 0KB to 12MB | 21:29 |
| mwic | Then it stops growing | 21:29 |
| mudkip908 | Henix_Aurorus: installed them and run "sudo depmod -a" and then "sudo modprobe ndiswrapper" | 21:29 |
| mwic | so it appears that it hung; also it was hanging regardless of file before | 21:29 |
| reisio | mwic: just rsync or rsync + ssh? | 21:29 |
| blazemore | mojtaba: Not really, everything else is system files which might need to be different on the new machine | 21:29 |
| mwic | just rsync .. | 21:29 |
| blazemore | mojtaba: Just make a note of which applications you have installed | 21:29 |
| mwic | reisio, | 21:29 |
| mudkip908 | Henix_Aurorus: It's getting kinda late here, so I'll be back tomorrow | 21:29 |
| mudkip908 | goodnight. | 21:30 |
| mojtaba | blazemore: I have installed xampp and xbmc for example | 21:30 |
| mwic | guess I'll try rsync -avW -e ssh ... | 21:30 |
| Henix879 | TABLET | 21:30 |
| mojtaba | blazemore: beside other applications like Matlab and VMware | 21:30 |
| reisio | mwic: so just this one remote server? Or local? or? | 21:30 |
| Henix879 | FUCK OFF | 21:30 |
| blazemore | OK mojtaba, your personal xbmc settings are stored in /home/<username>/.xbmc or something similar | 21:30 |
| BillyZane | umm | 21:30 |
| mojtaba | blazemore: which are not part of ubuntu. | 21:31 |
| BillyZane | Henix879, please refrain from using profanity | 21:31 |
| mwic | reisio, I'm just rsyncing one remote server to a "local" one | 21:31 |
| blazemore | mojtaba: So as long as you back up your /home/<username> directory, then you can copy your personal settings back after you reinstall xbmc etc | 21:31 |
| Henix879 | oi -_- | 21:31 |
| mwic | "local" because I'm actually shelled into a machine inside a VPN | 21:31 |
| Henix879 | Sorry, I tend to get very irritable when something other than this useless piece of junk gets stupidly slow | 21:31 |
| Henix879 | anyway, could anyone repost what mudkip908 linked earlier? | 21:32 |
| mobile_ | anyone ever get a reason 6 wifi issue before | 21:32 |
| mojtaba | blazemore: What about the /var directory? as I have installed xampp for example. | 21:32 |
| mojtaba | blazemore: Is there any documentation which explicitly says which directories are important for which users? | 21:32 |
| mwic | rsync with -e ssh seems to have hung at 9.3 MB | 21:32 |
| Henix879 | ...I guess that's a no. | 21:33 |
| reisio | mojtaba: you could just back it _all_ up | 21:33 |
| mojtaba | reisio: Is it necessary? | 21:33 |
| Henix879 | Great, now I have to track it down myself. ¬_¬ | 21:33 |
| reisio | mwic: what about scp for that file | 21:33 |
| reisio | mojtaba: nope, but you'd have fewer questions to ask | 21:34 |
| mojtaba | reisio: I do not want to restore my system completely. | 21:34 |
| BillyZane | does anyone here know how to use qemu? | 21:34 |
| choct155 | reisio: I missed the bug. What are you referring to? | 21:34 |
| reisio | mojtaba: that's irrelevant | 21:34 |
| mojtaba | reisio: I though the room is for asking questions. | 21:34 |
| choct155 | wilee-nilee: it wasn't easy! | 21:34 |
| mwic | reisio, it's only freezing on *this* file because that's what it's currently on. If I skip/remove that file, it freezes on a different one | 21:34 |
| Henix879 | Actually, are the logs publicly available? | 21:34 |
| reisio | mojtaba: having a backup of your entire system doesn't require you to restore it all | 21:34 |
| reisio | Henix879: yes | 21:34 |
| MonkeyDust | BillyZane type /join #qemu, over 100 people there | 21:35 |
| mojtaba | reisio: I am using ubuntu's default backup system and it gives me many files with .gpg files. | 21:35 |
| reisio | choct155: http://is.gd/uhicix | 21:35 |
| Henix879 | !logs | 21:35 |
| Henix879 | ...nope. | 21:35 |
| ubottu | Official channel logs can be found at http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/ . LoCo channels are now logged there too. | 21:35 |
| mobile_ | how about reconnecting sshfs after hibernate? any ideas. im using cron to start the mount | 21:35 |
| reisio | more people in #kvm | 21:36 |
| Henix879 | owait | 21:36 |
| dak0 | reisio: mojtaba: isn't it possible to backup the whole OS? | 21:36 |
| choct155 | reisio: thank you sir! i will check it out | 21:36 |
| Ben64 | i have 12.04, and just upgraded tonight, bunch of packages, rebooted, and now my bluetooth adapter doesn't work. what can i do to try to fix it? I tried loading the previous kernel version, tried installing a newer kernel, nothing seems to work. | 21:36 |
| reisio | mobile_: /etc/pm | 21:36 |
| BillyZane | MonkeyDust, i've been lurking in there for over a week, no one talks in that channel or responds. it's inappropriate to ask in here but i don't know where else to go | 21:36 |
| mojtaba | dak0: I do not want to bakcup the whole OS. | 21:36 |
| reisio | dak0: yup | 21:36 |
| reisio | Ben64: try taking it out and putting it back in? Or another port? | 21:36 |
| mwic | okay reisio it might be proceeding now .. but it's *very* slow ... first 9MB came over in about 10 sec; the next 1MB has taken 3 minutes | 21:36 |
| mobile_ | for? | 21:36 |
| reisio | mwic: right, ssh isn't as good at transferring | 21:36 |
| dak0 | mojtaba: if you have exteral hard drive it's not a big deal or you want clean install on the new machine | 21:36 |
| BillyZane | MonkeyDust, i have a very basic question. i just want to boot one of my partitions | 21:37 |
| reisio | mwic: but it could mean it isn't a hardware issue :) | 21:37 |
| Ben64 | reisio: yeah thats been tried | 21:37 |
| reisio | mobile_: ...for what you asked for? | 21:37 |
| mojtaba | dak0: I want a clean installation. and just restore all my settings. | 21:37 |
| mobile_ | ye but twhat do i do with /etc/pm | 21:38 |
| reisio | mobile_: look inside it | 21:38 |
| MonkeyDust | BillyZane ask your question here in the channel and in one line | 21:39 |
| mwic | I wonder if I just let this run overnight I'll be happy in the morning | 21:39 |
| abaddon | Hello fellow Ubuntu users, I would like to know how to edit a file through an automated script where in I run the script it adds an entry to the repository list then removes the entry once my script has run. | 21:39 |
| kristopolous | cp the file | 21:40 |
| kristopolous | cat >> to the end of it | 21:40 |
| kristopolous | then cp the file back | 21:40 |
| reisio | abaddon: sed -i 's/foo/bar/g' baz && qux && sed -i 's/bar/foo/g' baz | 21:41 |
| kristopolous | I've got a much crazier question ... my dhclient keeps blowing away resolv.conf and replacing it with 127.0.0.1 | 21:41 |
| kristopolous | and I don't know where or what is doing thta | 21:41 |
| reisio | abaddon: or if the file isn't that dynamic, you could just cp file orig.file && mv modified.file file && foo, etc. | 21:41 |
| kristopolous | I've tried the goog, the man pages | 21:42 |
| kristopolous | everything I could find | 21:42 |
| kristopolous | isn't there like some modern evented sys-v style thing going on | 21:42 |
| kristopolous | and dhclient sends out some type of event | 21:42 |
| kristopolous | that something can listen to | 21:42 |
| kristopolous | and blow the file away? | 21:42 |
| Galgorth | I installed guest additions in ubuntu 12.04 with Virtualbox but it still thinks I'm using a laptop monitor or something. The only two available resolutions are 1024x768 and 800x600. How can I enable higher resolutions? | 21:43 |
| th0r | kristopolous, it is being caused by dhcp. In Network Mangler, if I recall, there is an option to just fetch the IP address, as opposed to the dns and such. | 21:43 |
| wilee-nilee | !enter | kristopolous don't swamp the channel | 21:43 |
| ubottu | kristopolous don't swamp the channel: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line. Don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 21:43 |
| reisio | Galgorth: http://wvarner.blogspot.com/2008/05/installing-virtualbox-guest-additions.html | 21:43 |
| abaddon | reisio, so if i wanted to add the entry it'd be sed -i "/etc/repository" deb http://blahblah then... wuuuuuut?? | 21:44 |
| th0r | kristopolous, I think the conf file setting you want is in /etc/dhcp, or /etc/dhcp3 | 21:44 |
| kristopolous | I'm not using NetworkManager | 21:44 |
| reisio | abaddon: depends on what you're doing :) | 21:44 |
| BillyZane | MonkeyDust, ok | 21:44 |
| Henix879 | >channel's logged | 21:44 |
| th0r | kristopolous, in /etc/dhcp/dhcp.conf there is a 'request' line....that includes 'domain-name-servers' | 21:45 |
| Henix879 | >logs are behind by a bare minimum of 20 minutes | 21:45 |
| Henix879 | gee that's helpful >.> | 21:45 |
| Henix879 | what, are they updated every hour or something? | 21:45 |
| wilee-nilee | Henix879, scroll up. | 21:46 |
| mwic | hm, I don't know if this is what's slowing rsync down reisio but syslog has | 21:46 |
| mwic | dbus-protocol.c: Too many objects for client ':1.86', client request failed. | 21:46 |
| mwic | plus "Invalid query packet" and "last message repeated 7 times.. . | 21:46 |
| Henix879 | what I'm looking for isn't in my logs because AndroIRC was being a pain and I don't have logging enabled for it | 21:46 |
| BillyZane | I have, on this hard drive, 3 partitions: NTFS, and 2 ext4. the NTFS partition has windows 7 and the ext4 partitions have my / and /home drive (Ubuntu 13.04). I'd like to use qemu to boot my windows 7 drive from Ubuntu. I don't know how to use qemu, I tried the following command: qemu-system-x86_64 -boot c -vga std -soundhw all -m 4098 ... I got an error msg: "no bootable device." | 21:46 |
| kristopolous | right, it's in there ... this isn't a matter of me not getting domain name servers, it's a matter of me getting 127.0.0.1 as the domain name server each time | 21:46 |
| bazhang | !1984 | Henix879 | 21:47 |
| ubottu | Henix879: Official channel logs can be found at http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/ . LoCo channels are now logged there too. | 21:47 |
| reisio | BillyZane: what's the output of this?: egrep 'svm|vmx' /proc/cpuinfo | 21:47 |
| wilee-nilee | Henix879, Contrary to your parents treatment of you thew world does not revolve around a single individual outside their own reality. :) | 21:47 |
| Henix879 | I'm looking at the logs and the problem is they're behind enough that what I'm looking for isn't there | 21:47 |
| Henix879 | ... | 21:47 |
| reisio | Henix879: what good is saying that | 21:48 |
| reisio | Henix879: what're you looking for | 21:48 |
| kristopolous | Also, it's worth noting that this is independent of the network I connect to. This has been happening for a few days and persists over probably 8-12 networks so far | 21:48 |
| abaddon | reisio, OK, Let me restart. I want to edit the file in /etc/repository and add the line deb http://blah. This must be done through a script. The script adds a few repos and updates the list then installs a lot of programs. The repo, SpaceFM, I want to add doesnt have a correct way to just add-apt-repo. So the repo file should be edited with the given repo | 21:48 |
| bazhang | Henix879, its just a few minutes, please relax | 21:48 |
| BillyZane | reisio, http://pastebin.com/jwCp9Rpf | 21:48 |
| th0r | kristopolous, all dhcp networks? | 21:48 |
| abaddon | #! paste | 21:48 |
| mwic | every time: goes really fast up to 13MB then slows down to 1MB/hr or so | 21:49 |
| abaddon | #! ubuntu | 21:49 |
| Henix879 | I'm looking for the links for two versions of ndiswrapper mudkip908 linked earlier, once of which was -source and the other I managed to forget | 21:49 |
| kristopolous | yes, all of them ... I have this fear that maybe some file got removed instead of edited | 21:49 |
| wilee-nilee | abaddon, What are you looking for? | 21:49 |
| BillyZane | reisio, i did not find an svm highlight, but vmx was highlighted | 21:49 |
| Henix879 | shortly after he linked those AndroIRC pretty much exploded and I was forced to switch to my computer to keep my sanity | 21:49 |
| abaddon | trying to get the paste link for ubu | 21:49 |
| wilee-nilee | !pastebin | 21:49 |
| ubottu | For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://imagebin.org/?page=add | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. | 21:49 |
| abaddon | wilee-nilee, trying to get the paste link for ubu | 21:49 |
| Henix879 | and unfortunately he left just before HexChat opened | 21:49 |
| blazemore | Henix879: Download packages.ubuntu.com/raring/ndiswrapper-dkms and packages.ubuntu.com/raring/ndiswrapper-source | 21:50 |
| bazhang | Henix879, -utils | 21:50 |
| Henix879 | yes that | 21:50 |
| Henix879 | thank you | 21:50 |
| th0r | kristopolous, then it is most likely the dhcp client config on your computer. If you read that conf file there are a couple of options that could be the culprit. | 21:50 |
| blazemore | No problem | 21:50 |
| abaddon | wilee-nilee, so i can show reisio my script so he can see what i'm trying to do | 21:50 |
| bazhang | welcome | 21:50 |
| wilee-nilee | !pastebin | abaddon | 21:50 |
| ubottu | abaddon: For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://imagebin.org/?page=add | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. | 21:50 |
| kristopolous | sure, but the configuration files mtime match the installdate of this box, which is like 8 months ago | 21:50 |
| abaddon | wilee-nilee, thax | 21:51 |
| mwic | reisio, even more interesting: scp *also* slows down/stalls after 13MB transferred | 21:51 |
| reisio | BillyZane: then you should use kvm (or "qemu-kvm" or "kvm-qemu") instead of just qemu | 21:51 |
| reisio | BillyZane: unless Ubuntu is calling kvm just 'qemu' now | 21:51 |
| reisio | I don't keep track | 21:51 |
| BillyZane | reisio: oh, thank you! i'll do a search for qemu and see if there is a qemu-kvm | 21:51 |
| wilee-nilee | I repeat myself when under stress, I repeat myself when under stress, I repeat myself when under stress, | 21:51 |
| mwic | trying scp -l 8192 now | 21:52 |
| BillyZane | reisio: there is in deed a qemu-kvm , however, i already have qemu installed. should i uninstall qemu first? | 21:52 |
| reisio | BillyZane: just make sure you're using the kvm version, no matter what it's called | 21:52 |
| reisio | BillyZane: nah they're probably using that name for both now | 21:52 |
| BillyZane | oh i see | 21:52 |
| BillyZane | reisio, should i install qemu-kvm then? | 21:52 |
| abaddon | reisio, here is my script. At the beginning where i'm adding repos is where I want the entry to be added then at the end the entry should be deleted.. http://paste.ubuntu.com/5930596/ | 21:52 |
| mdinstuhl | So I'm trying an experiment. No browsers, just command-line tools. I am using mplayer to stream SomaFM, centerim to chat with gtalk people and vi to edit this groovy script. | 21:52 |
| reisio | BillyZane: sure you haven't already? | 21:53 |
| BillyZane | nope | 21:53 |
| mdinstuhl | Just realized I'm hungry and there is no command line tool to order a pizza. :( | 21:53 |
| BillyZane | reisio: installing | 21:53 |
| BillyZane | ok i'll try that command again | 21:53 |
| jrib | mdinstuhl: actually there is. | 21:53 |
| BillyZane | reisio, i get the same error. in fact, i will copy and paste the msg. | 21:53 |
| mdinstuhl | jrib: I guess I would write a script that connected to their site using curl or wget... | 21:53 |
| jrib | mdinstuhl: https://github.com/coryarcangel/Pizza-Party-0.1.b | 21:54 |
| mdinstuhl | jrib: Checking it out now... you might be my new hero. | 21:55 |
| jrib | mdinstuhl: it's an old project and the project page seems dead so I doubt it still works | 21:55 |
| reisio | BillyZane: best to check with #kvm, but I believe what you want is -hda /dev/whateverWindowsIsOn | 21:55 |
| BillyZane | can't seem to copy and paste.... it says... booting from floppy... boot failed. booting from DVD/CD, boot failed, booting from room... iPXE initialising devices...ok ... iPXE 1.0.0+ -- open source network boot firfmware ... DHCP, net0, next server, nothing to boot: no such file or directory (ipxe.org/2d03e13b) no more network devices, no bootable device. | 21:55 |
| kostkon | mdinstuhl, and here's the famous vid http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x7pPajOvQGo | 21:55 |
| reisio | BillyZane: don't expect it to magically work, you might have to install some extra drivers or the like | 21:55 |
| BillyZane | reisio: i have windows on... /media/user/F08FA908A/ , so i put a dev in front? i'll try that | 21:56 |
| BillyZane | qemu-system-x86_64: -hda /dev/media/riz/F2AC4107AC40C7B5: could not open disk image /dev/media/riz/F2AC4107AC40C7B5: No such file or directory | 21:56 |
| mwic | I think I'm fixed; thanks reisio scp -l 1200 appears to do the trick .. I will try with rsync --bwlimit=1200 now | 21:56 |
| reisio | mwic: neat | 21:57 |
| reisio | BillyZane: no, no | 21:57 |
| mwic | so far so good | 21:57 |
| abaddon | reisio, Any ideas? | 21:57 |
| reisio | BillyZane: run 'mount' and find out where /media/user/F08FA908A is mounted _from_ | 21:57 |
| reisio | BillyZane: and use that (after you umount it) | 21:57 |
| BillyZane | ohhhh | 21:57 |
| BillyZane | oh oh oh oh oh!! | 21:58 |
| reisio | twss | 21:58 |
| BillyZane | reisio, i saw this on system monitor | 21:58 |
| BillyZane | it's on ... /dev/sda2 | 21:58 |
| Casey | just put my 12.04 LTS server on a 32" LCD...1 meter away from me :) | 21:59 |
| BillyZane | qemu-system-x86_64: -hda /dev/media/riz/F2AC4107AC40C7B5: could not open disk image /dev/media/riz/F2AC4107AC40C7B5: No such file or directory | 21:59 |
| BillyZane | bla!! | 21:59 |
| Casey | Sorry, just a little happy. Been needing a use for this 32" | 21:59 |
| xaegis | Hello. I am having an issue with the newest kernel in Ubuntu 13.04. My computer fails to boot unless I am using 3.8.0-26, 3.8.9-27 obly boots to black screen with cursor and will not accept input. | 21:59 |
| BillyZane | riz@NightViper:/usr/share/man$ qemu-system-x86_64 -boot c -vga std -soundhw all -m 4098 -hda /dev/sda2 | 21:59 |
| BillyZane | qemu-system-x86_64: -hda /dev/sda2: could not open disk image /dev/sda2: Permission denied | 21:59 |
| reisio | BillyZane: -hda /dev/sda2, after you umount from /media | 21:59 |
| BillyZane | reisio, i have to mount? | 21:59 |
| === thirsteh_ is now known as thirsteh | ||
| reisio | BillyZane: umount | 21:59 |
| BillyZane | umount... | 21:59 |
| BillyZane | i'm not sure how to umount | 21:59 |
| reisio | BillyZane: it's already mounted, to /media | 21:59 |
| BillyZane | reisio, oh ok | 22:00 |
| BillyZane | what's umount for then? | 22:00 |
| Dr_willis | umount uNmounts a filesystem ;( | 22:00 |
| reisio | BillyZane: you should be able to do it from the file manager | 22:00 |
| reisio | otherwise sudo umount /media/whatever | 22:00 |
| mdinstuhl | Ima fork the heck outta this PizzaParty script. Maybe even add support for Pizza Hut and Papa Johns! | 22:00 |
| reisio | you might need root to run the qemu... -hda /dev/sda2 bit, too | 22:00 |
| BillyZane | reisio, ok, i'll do that | 22:00 |
| BillyZane | reisio, ok i mounted it | 22:01 |
| BillyZane | err.. umounted it | 22:01 |
| jrib | mdinstuhl: afterwards you can work on adding some good pizza places to it ;) | 22:01 |
| iampoz | Hi guys, I have an 8 gb usb drive that I want to put a complete image back up of my current os (ubuntu 12.04) and all of the files. Such that when I mess it up, I can simply re-install it by usb to the current state | 22:01 |
| iampoz | what is the best way to do this? | 22:01 |
| BillyZane | dr_willis: hi :) | 22:01 |
| wilee-nilee | iampoz, How big is the install? | 22:01 |
| iampoz | not sure, any way to find out? | 22:02 |
| Ben64 | i have 12.04, and just upgraded yesterday, a bunch of packages, rebooted, and now my bluetooth adapter doesn't work. what can i do to try to fix it? I tried loading the previous kernel version, tried installing a newer kernel, nothing seems to work. | 22:02 |
| wilee-nilee | iampoz, How big are the partitons? | 22:02 |
| thekkid | Does anyone know how to download from ftp using regex not just globbing | 22:02 |
| wilee-nilee | iampoz, Iamges are generally equal to the OS, unless in a tar, so 8 gigs sounds to small really. | 22:03 |
| iampoz | sorry wilee-nilee, not sure how to figure that out | 22:03 |
| iampoz | it is a fairly fresh install | 22:03 |
| Vec | Good evening guys, i'm wondering how i can find out why my ubuntu server greets me as i SSH to it with "System restart required" ? | 22:04 |
| wilee-nilee | iampoz, I would have images on an external HD, a flash has better use, but thats me. | 22:04 |
| BillyZane | reisio, ok, the folder is unmounted now | 22:04 |
| Vec | I found nothing in syslog. | 22:04 |
| jrib | Vec: you want to understand the implementation or you want to know why you need to restart? | 22:04 |
| Dr_willis | Vec, because theres been a kernel update/upgrade or some other critical package and the system needs rebooted to use the new kernel or other binarys | 22:04 |
| mdinstuhl | Vec: It could be that apt has downloaded some patches that require a restart. | 22:04 |
| === g_byers is now known as gbyers[Away] | ||
| odd1 | hey Dr_willis, wanted to tell you, in the end testdisk worked great and i've gotten most of my data back... sadly i did lose some jpgs... | 22:05 |
| sponzor | is there any discution about what happened to forum ? i cant find a thread on forums :P (hacked some days ago...) | 22:05 |
| mdinstuhl | Vec: if you issue shutdown -r now it should take care of everything. | 22:05 |
| Vec | jrib: I want to know what triggers that notification/need considering i have not touched the server since 2 days ago where i SSH'd to it and just checked logs. | 22:05 |
| iampoz | okay, gpart says my main partition is 294.1 gb and unused is 282.3 | 22:05 |
| mdinstuhl | Vec: which version are you running? | 22:05 |
| jrib | Vec: the only thing I know that does that is certain upgrades (like a new kernel) | 22:05 |
| iampoz | so I need atleast a 16 gb usb? | 22:05 |
| Vec | Dr_willis: I see,is this a often occurance? How do people get 9001 days of uptime then? | 22:05 |
| Vec | mdiers: thanks | 22:05 |
| Vec | mdinstuhl: 13.04 server | 22:06 |
| mdinstuhl | Vec: lemmie check to see if anything was pushed out within the past two days. | 22:06 |
| BillyZane | reisio, i used the following command: sudo qemu-system-x86_64 -boot c -vga std -soundhw all -m 4098 -hda /dev/sda2 ... a window popped up and it said: booting from hard disk.... A disk read error occured, press Ctrl+alt-del to restart | 22:06 |
| wilee-nilee | iampoz, So, way to big to save as an image on the flash use a external HD and clonezilla, it saves in packages, however needs an equal to larger partition for reloading. | 22:06 |
| Vec | jrib: Ok, if its an update like that i could find it somewhere in some log? | 22:06 |
| OerHeks | http://www.ubuntu.com/usn/usn-1919-1/ 29 july | 22:06 |
| Vec | mdinstuhl: many thanks | 22:06 |
| jrib | Vec: sure, both dpkg and apt keep logs | 22:06 |
| ethana3 | My monitor doesn't have proper EDID so I looked up the specs and made an xorg.conf, but it's being ignored | 22:06 |
| wilee-nilee | iampoz, Clonezill will just save the packages so only the size of the data, more or less. | 22:07 |
| luke1_ | Hello. Can someone please tell me what a lens is? | 22:07 |
| LeTux | Hi | 22:07 |
| reisio | luke1_: when you hit alt+f2 and search for things | 22:07 |
| wilee-nilee | luke1_, Not witout a statement of the problem to the channel. | 22:08 |
| Vec | jrib: Im reading the dpkg log now, but im at a loss for what exactly to look for :x (im a novice you see) | 22:08 |
| LeTux | Is it bad that I use GNOME? | 22:08 |
| k1l | luke1_: see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Unity/Lenses | 22:08 |
| jrib | Vec: look for the install of a linux-image file perhaps | 22:08 |
| reisio | LeTux: it's neither bad nor good | 22:08 |
| jrib | s/file/packageo | 22:08 |
| mdinstuhl | Vec: run 'cat /var/log/apt/history.log' and see if anything shows up that looks odd. | 22:08 |
| LeTux | reisiso: ok | 22:08 |
| luke1_ | Thank you. | 22:08 |
| Vec | There seems to be updating of a lot of packages @ 30/07 | 22:09 |
| Elembis | I have to be missing something simple, but: how do I change from the purple theme to something different? | 22:09 |
| OerHeks | jrib vex linux kernel or broadcom driver http://www.ubuntu.com/usn/ | 22:09 |
| Elembis | I installed the Mediterranean themes, I think, but I don't see them in the Themes avaiable in Settings > Appearance. | 22:09 |
| LeTux | im gonna switch DE-s in a couple of minutes | 22:09 |
| iampoz | wilee-nilee, so I only need 12.2 gb of space? that how much is currently being used... and to reload it, i need equal or greater then the current partition (so reloading it on to this laptop should not be a problem)...? | 22:09 |
| iampoz | is clonezill the best to use? | 22:09 |
| LeTux | i have gnome openbox lxde and xfce | 22:09 |
| k1l | LeTux: lets stick to support in this channel. we have #ubuntu-offtopic for chatter | 22:10 |
| wilee-nilee | iampoz, Exactly. | 22:10 |
| Vec | jrib: Found this in dpkg log -> "2013-07-30 06:54:17 install linux-image-3.8.0-27-generic:amd64 <none> 3.8.0-27.40" I'm interpreting this to be some big update? | 22:10 |
| iampoz | wilee-nilee, so wouldent a 16 gb usb flash drive work to put the image onto? | 22:10 |
| jrib | Vec: it's a kernel | 22:10 |
| BillyZane | reisio: thanks for the help, i feel i've made a lot of progress on this so far. hopefully someone from #qemu will wake up | 22:11 |
| BillyZane | lol | 22:11 |
| reisio | BillyZane: #kvm | 22:11 |
| wilee-nilee | iampoz, And if the partition you reload to has a different # you can change it in the save. | 22:11 |
| Vec | jrib: Then i have my answer i guess :] | 22:11 |
| BillyZane | oh.. ok | 22:11 |
| BillyZane | thank you | 22:11 |
| Vec | mdinstuhl: I ran your command and it showed the same info i found in dpkg log,just neatly organized by date. Ill remember that, thanks :> | 22:12 |
| abaddon | reisio, Hey... any clues? | 22:12 |
| wilee-nilee | iampoz, Yes a 16 gig flash would work, if it were me I would get the biggest you can afford, in lieu of multiple clones. | 22:12 |
| wilee-nilee | or rysnc backups...etc | 22:12 |
| Vec | jrib, mdinstuhl: Thanks both of you. I've concluded that its the kernel update that makes my ubuntu install require a restart. Just a follow up question: How often does updates that require restarts happen (ballpark) ? | 22:13 |
| iampoz | wilee-nilee, that sounds good then. and it saves other files and program settings as well? - so after reloading, i would not be able to tell a difference from its current state to its reloaded state? | 22:13 |
| reisio | abaddon: to? | 22:13 |
| wilee-nilee | iampoz, Correct it is a clone of what it was when saved. | 22:13 |

| wilee-nilee | iampoz, No problem, and the best way to avoid asking for help, which personally I hate doing. ;) | 22:14 |

| qwebirc4201 | Hi i have a problem after using the cp command on a live cd and rbooting i cant even acces my hard drive ! And fdisk or gparted dont even recognise the hard disk some help plz or my hard drive is death ? | 22:14 |
| abaddon | reisio, no, I can send it again? | 22:15 |
| abaddon | reisio, http://paste.ubuntu.com/5930596/ | 22:15 |
| wilee-nilee | qwebirc4201, The live cd has a smart check I believe, what does gparted show? | 22:15 |
| reisio | abaddon: why aren't you using something that's in the official repos? | 22:15 |
| qwebirc4201 | wilee-nilee, it only show the first ssd memory card ( 20gb) and not the second (500gb ) | 22:16 |

| abaddon | rai None of the File managers are as light and user friendly as SpaceFM | 22:16 |
| reisio | nothing about file managers in this paste is there? | 22:16 |
| reisio | abaddon: what's the problem, again? | 22:17 |
| mdinstuhl | Vec: most of the kernel patches may or may not directly affect your system, so you kind of have to make sure it's something that you need. If you're running a DNS server in production then a kernel update to get rid of a Xorg bug might not be worth your time. | 22:17 |
| wilee-nilee | qwebirc4201, cp is beyond my skill set, however stating the one used and how to the channel will probably help. | 22:17 |
| abaddon | reisio, OK, I need that script to edit the repository file to add the SpaceFM repo link. At the end of that script it needs to remove the link | 22:18 |
| iampoz_ | sorry wilee-nilee, i got dced so I may have missed somthing you said... I was asking about where to get clonezill | 22:18 |
| abaddon | reisio, How do I goes about doing that? | 22:18 |
| wilee-nilee | iampoz, http://clonezilla.org/ it is a bootable app. | 22:19 |
| reisio | abaddon: you know the line you want to add & remove? | 22:19 |

| wilee-nilee | qwebirc4201, the no access to anything from the live cd is suspicious, hard to tell really at least for me, if it were just a broken partition table you might at least have access at times, how old is the HD, and this sounds like a computer that may have started with a uefi setup. | 22:21 |
| MonkeyDust | abaddon you want to use a debian source in ubuntu? | 22:21 |
| wilee-nilee | is the uefi correct qwebirc4201 | 22:21 |
| abaddon | MonkeyDust, It works. -shrugs- | 22:22 |
| xananax | Hello, I am looking to upgrade my Ubuntu, I have 2 questions: 1 - after a long while, I have selected the apps that I like, with the interface i like, etc. I am on 12.10, and want to upgrade to 13.x. Is there any way to keep my added PPAs and my list of installed software to install everything anew?( I am going for a fresh install) - 2: Will I have to download my steam games again, or can I just leave them be (my home is on its own partition) | 22:22 |
| reisio | abaddon: echo 'deb http://ignorantguru.github.com/debian/ unstable main' >> path/to/file && whatever; sed -i 's@deb http://ignorantguru.github.com/debian/ unstable main@@g' path/to/file | 22:22 |
| jrib | xananax: why aren't you upgrading? | 22:22 |
| qwebirc4201 | wilee-nilee what is uefi ? i had the computer since 1 year acer timeline U . the system is i had one hard drive to start windows quiclky 20Gb the second to the syste and files 500 gb | 22:23 |
| wilee-nilee | xananax, YOu have to chek that the PPA's cover that release. | 22:23 |
| xananax | jrib, I fear it won't be clean. | 22:23 |
| genii | reisio: more like echo "something" | sudo tee -a /somewhere/unpriveleged | 22:23 |
| xananax | wilee-nilee, if one particular PPA doesn't, it is fine, but I have a lot | 22:23 |
| jrib | xananax: I don't know what that means | 22:23 |
| wilee-nilee | qwebirc4201, Was this a W8 oem install originally? | 22:23 |
| qwebirc4201 | no its W7 | 22:23 |
| qwebirc4201 | its bios | 22:23 |
| xananax | jrib, I mean, I fear that upgrading will lead to more problems than a fresh install | 22:23 |
| xananax | I've had that in the past | 22:24 |
| xananax | upgrade would break | 22:24 |
| reisio | genii: perhaps, but even so it wouldn't matter to me, but abaddon | 22:24 |
| jrib | xananax: so upgrade and see? You don't lose anything. | 22:24 |
| wilee-nilee | qwebirc4201, Cool just making sure is all, can we assume you have no images/clones? | 22:24 |
| xananax | jrib, hah :) ok makes sense, I shall, but my question still stands in case it doesn't work | 22:24 |
| mdinstuhl | xananax: I've never done what you're suggesting, but your ppa info should be stored under /etc/apt/sources.list.d if you wanna back them up. | 22:24 |
| qwebirc4201 | wilee-nilee no i havnt in bios setup i see the hard drive HD O ,O but it cant boot on him | 22:24 |
| abaddon | reisio, But? | 22:25 |
| sam113101 | how do I present windows? | 22:25 |
| jrib | xananax: you can create a list of installed software, but if you upgrade, packages may change and packages may be renamed or removed | 22:25 |
| reisio | abaddon: but? | 22:25 |
| reisio | abaddon: means it would matter to you, not I | 22:25 |
| wilee-nilee | qwebirc4201, Hard to say why, I would use a smart check on the HD, in the disk partitioner on a ubuntu install not gparted is a smart check, I think the same app is on the live cd. | 22:25 |
| xananax | jrib, I see. | 22:25 |
| reisio | that is: there's no point putting 'reisio: ' at the beginning of msgs that are irrelevant to me | 22:25 |
| wilee-nilee | don't tempt me muhahhha | 22:26 |
| mojo706 | wilee-nilee, can you help? | 22:27 |
| abaddon | reisio, ohhh, ok. One more question. is the sed -i etc etc part the part that removes the entry? | 22:27 |
| reisio | abaddon: yup | 22:27 |
| wilee-nilee | mojo706, Use a kernel that does not panic, must be more than one set, anyone ask if this happens every boot? | 22:29 |
| wilee-nilee | mojo706, I closed my account at the forums a couple of years ago. | 22:29 |
| mojo706 | wilee-nilee, he says that its happened 3 times | 22:29 |
| wilee-nilee | mojo706, Hard to say O would use another if there are more than one, maybe a fsck on the partition, out of my skill set really. | 22:30 |
| wilee-nilee | I* | 22:30 |
| abaddon | reisio, Ahhhh, ok. errr ONE More question. This is just for my learning. What is with the main@@g part mean? | 22:30 |
| mojo706 | wilee-nilee, thanks for the reply | 22:32 |
| wilee-nilee | mojo706, No prob. | 22:32 |
| reisio | abaddon: you can man sed, but basically sed 's/foo/bar/g' replaces foo with bar | 22:33 |
| reisio | abaddon: you can use most any char other than / however | 22:33 |
| reisio | which is handy when you want to replace things with /'s | 22:33 |
| reisio | so s/foo//g replaces foo with nothing, and so does s@foo@@g | 22:34 |
| abaddon | reisio, Hmmm, ok, well thank you for your assistance | 22:35 |
| abaddon | =] | 22:35 |

| vaskaloidis | Awaken: ok do I do that during boot, the config? | 23:11 |
| jrib | arthurdent: what happens exactly when you place a .php in /var/www/home/*/web? | 23:11 |
| Sir-Litepool | first ones already configurd? | 23:11 |

| arthurdent | jrib: apaches default 503 page (forbidden) | 23:11 |
| Awaken | that link explains it. Be careful though not to typo anything, you could make your system fail to boot - i would just change the timeout and not touch anything else | 23:12 |
| jrib | arthurdent: and with an html file with identical permissions? | 23:12 |
| arthurdent | jrib: works as expected | 23:12 |

| jrib | arthurdent: have you checked if it works with the default location for userdirs (~/public_html)? | 23:15 |
| arthurdent | like by reconfiguring apache2 to host /home/*/public_html instead of /var/home/www/*/web? | 23:16 |
| jrib | arthurdent: yes, that should have been the default setup | 23:16 |
| arthurdent | yeah, I did not try that. I'll try it now, give me a minute. | 23:16 |
| jrib | arthurdent: reset userdir.conf (or whatever) to default | 23:17 |
| jrib | arthurdent: make sure you clear browser cache too | 23:19 |
| uhelp | OerHeks, yes the router would ... but I don't have access to the router. What I do have access to is the command line (bash). | 23:19 |
| uhelp | OerHeks, since I have root I should be able to extract it | 23:19 |
| OerHeks | uhelp it is stored in keyring, try "gnome-keyring-daemon --help" | 23:20 |
| uhelp | OerHeks, I will look there. Thank you | 23:21 |
| arthurdent | jrib: i think i overwrote userdir.conf like a dunce, is there an easy way to pull a clean copy from aptitude? | 23:21 |
| jrib | arthurdent: you can reinstall the package for it and pass some flags, but it may be easier to just apt-get source PACKAGE instead and find the file in there | 23:22 |
| jrib | arthurdent: you can find the package that provides it with dpkg -S /path/to/file | 23:22 |

| Shadowandlight | i've blown away my original install due to various reasons, but twice now as I learn to use ubuntu i keep getting this graphics issue that basically results in ubuntu desktop not loading | 23:26 |
| Shadowandlight | im using server + desktop install on a VM box | 23:26 |
| Shadowandlight | am i doing something wrong? | 23:26 |
| Deepfriedice | What graphics card and driver are you on? | 23:28 |
| Shadowandlight | AMD 7850 | 23:28 |
| Shadowandlight | latest beta i believe | 23:28 |
| Shadowandlight | desktop works for a bit, but maybe after a restart or 2 it wont load the graphics | 23:28 |

| KeyboardNotFound | How to install QT C++ with apt-get ? | 23:29 |
| Deepfriedice | Shadowandlight, Does it work fine on the open source drivers? | 23:29 |
| Shadowandlight | well i dont install any other drivers (on purpose at least) I just load it from the VM box Deepfriedice | 23:30 |
| arthurdent | jrib: it's not finding my userdir at all now, not even for html. I have a feeling it was set up in this hokey way on purpose. this is on a machine full of AD users | 23:30 |
| netlar | I want some of the apps to just minimize when hitting the close button | 23:31 |
| jrib | arthurdent: you have no user with a home in /home? | 23:31 |
| arthurdent | it gets populated only when users are logged in. for some reason it's not working with the user I'm currently logged in as | 23:31 |
| jrib | arthurdent: can you pastebin the new userdir.conf? | 23:31 |
| MonkeyDust | netlar there's alltray, it minimizes any app to the tray | 23:32 |
| netlar | MonkeyDust: but not the laucher | 23:32 |
| MonkeyDust | netlar forget what i said, it doesnt anymore in 13.04 unity | 23:32 |
| Deepfriedice | Shadowandlight, Between the VM and the proprietary beta driver, I don't know who you would track down any kind of issue. | 23:33 |
| netlar | MonkeyDust: Not a big deal, just thought maybe somehow you could edit the menu bar buttons app by app | 23:34 |

| daniel11 | hello. i restarted my computer just now and I'm getting a blinking underscore _ on the top left hand corner of the screen and no x server. can anyone help? | 23:34 |
| arthurdent | jrib: otherwise it's completely vanilla, I got it from the apache source | 23:34 |
| netlar | daniel11: I get that too sometimes | 23:34 |
| jrib | arthurdent: ok, so you put in the commented lines and then just html works but php gives you 503? | 23:34 |
| netlar | daniel11: I just power off pc, and reboot, but seems kinda irratating | 23:35 |
| arthurdent | right | 23:35 |
| daniel11 | netlar: comforting yet unhelpful. I like it! :-P | 23:35 |

| jrib | arthurdent: check for silly issues? Typos etc. | 23:36 |
| netlar | daniel11: I get that sometimes since I am using the binary driver from AMD | 23:36 |
| jrib | arthurdent: you could try #httpd but sometimes they have issues with the way debian does configuration of httpd. I don't mind troubleshooting more but after some food (~30 min) | 23:36 |
| arthurdent | jrib: sure, I might be gone in 20 minutes, but thanks a ton for being patient with me | 23:36 |
| daniel11 | I recently installed the binary driver from nvidia hoping it would speed up the gui.. could that be the cause? restarting doesnt help | 23:36 |
| netlar | daniel11: I probably is the binary driver | 23:37 |
| jrib | arthurdent: my only thought is that there may be some issue with the fact that your userdir sits inside your doc root (some config may be conflicting somewhere). If moving homes is an issue, try moving docroot (just to troubleshoot) | 23:37 |
| daniel11 | what can I do about that? | 23:37 |

| daniel11 | tell me how I can get a terminal before startup at least.. | 23:42 |
| arthurdent | actually i could just change the root dir to somethign else, it's not being used for anything | 23:42 |

| daniel11 | I cant get a terminal. if my computer is capable of doing that at this point, I dont know how. | 23:45 |

| Sir-Litepool | can someone guide me on how to add an extra ip to my server | 23:50 |
| daniel11 | sir-litepool - ifconfig <interface>:1 <ip>. for example sudo ifconfig eth0:1 192.168.0.5 | 23:53 |
| daniel11 | increase the number after the colon by one for each addition IP | 23:54 |
| Sir-Litepool | daniel11, thanks for your reply, so if my current config is http://pastie.org/8191661 and i want to add 77.95.225.49 | 23:54 |
| Sir-Litepool | do i do ifconfig eth0:1 77.95.225.49 | 23:55 |
| daniel11 | sir-litepool - that should work | 23:55 |
| Sir-Litepool | thanks daniel11 | 23:56 |
