| c2tarun | Hi friends, I use two cloud services for syncing data across my various devices. One is dropbox and Other is Ubuntu One. But these applications always running in background drain my laptop's battery. I want to schedule tasks that sometime on weekends (when I am safely at home's wi-fi) dropbox and ubuntu one automatically starts and do the necessary syncing. Can anyone please point me in the right direction from where to start? | 00:50 |

| darkblue_b | hi all - if I look at `uname -a` and see the kernal version.. and I do `dpkg-query --show` and I see a few other linux-image packages installed with other version numbers. is it safe to remove those other packages? | 03:35 |
| darkblue_b | is it what I think it might be.. just other kernals sitting there? I am not facile with this, as you can tell | 03:36 |
| darkblue_b | I assume dpkg-query --show is listing things that are installed... | 03:36 |
| lgc | Hi, how can I configure my laptop so it goes into suspend mode when I close the lid? | 03:37 |

| holstein | darkblue_b: also, look and see what size the kernels actually are.. to see if its worth bothering removing them | 04:07 |

| qwertz__ | hi! anyone familiar with samsung SSDs and disk encyrption? | 12:10 |
| baizon | qwertz_: well i encrypt using encfs | 12:10 |
| baizon | only some folders | 12:10 |
| qwertz__ | will disk encryption in some way bind the SSD to the specific BIOS/laptop it's configured on? | 12:10 |
| qwertz__ | baizon, samsung pro SSDs have some hardware level encryption | 12:11 |
| qwertz__ | i hope it's fully transparent to any software (including the OS) | 12:11 |
| baizon | qwertz_: not really, because /boot wont be encrypted | 12:11 |
| qwertz__ | baizon, are you sure? | 12:11 |
| baizon | qwertz_: you mean the hardware specific encryption? | 12:12 |
| qwertz__ | as far as i understand (so far), anything on the disk is encrypted | 12:12 |
| qwertz__ | baizon, yes | 12:12 |
| Sysi | I think most new ssd:s have low level encryption, but encrypted filesystem is different | 12:12 |
| qwertz__ | i just want the guy who'll steal my laptop in the future not to be able to extract any data from my SSD | 12:13 |
| Sysi | http://vxlabs.com/2012/12/22/ssds-with-usable-built-in-hardware-based-full-disk-encryption/ | 12:13 |
| qwertz__ | Sysi, yep, already read that | 12:14 |
| qwertz__ | the SSD in question is Samsung's 840 pro | 12:14 |
| qwertz__ | Sysi, even with that link, i do not understand on which level the encryption takes place | 12:15 |
| qwertz__ | i want to hardware to take care of everything. i want to be able to plug the disk into another machine, use the same password and get access to my data. | 12:16 |
| qwertz__ | i don't want speed penalties due to encryption | 12:16 |
| qwertz__ | and i don't want to take care of anything besides setting a password i'm asked whenever i boot | 12:16 |
| bgardner | qwertz_: Encryption takes processing power, you sacrifice at least some speed no matter what. | 12:17 |
| baizon | qwertz_: http://smallbusiness.chron.com/samsung-ssd-encryption-work-39204.html | 12:17 |
| Sysi | that article says only intel has properly working low-level encryption, in any case crypto will mean performance decrease | 12:17 |
| qwertz__ | baizon, thanks for that link! that seems to be the resource i needed | 12:19 |

| xubuntu004 | u here ? | 12:24 |
| xubuntu004 | cen anyone help | 12:57 |
| cfhowlett | xubuntu004, details ... | 12:57 |
| bgardner | xubuntu004: Ask away | 12:57 |
| xubuntu004 | i installed xubuntu | 12:57 |
| xubuntu004 | and my wireless antenna not working | 12:58 |

| xubuntu004 | i used this tutorial https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx but its not help | 12:58 |
| xubuntu004 | or i doing something wrong | 12:58 |
| cfhowlett | xubuntu004, which method did you use? I use the STA no internet access method and I had wifi in 2 minutes without a reboot | 12:59 |
| xubuntu004 | i used b43 | 13:02 |
| xubuntu004 | now i try that oder | 13:02 |
| xubuntu004 | bomzas@bomzas-HP-G5000-GH972EA-ABU:~$ uname -r 3.8.0-27-generic bomzas@bomzas-HP-G5000-GH972EA-ABU:~$ dpkg --get-selections | grep headers linux-headers-3.8.0-19install linux-headers-3.8.0-19-genericinstall linux-headers-3.8.0-27install linux-headers-3.8.0-27-genericinstall linux-headers-genericinstall bomzas@bomzas-HP-G5000-GH972EA-ABU:~$ cd /cdrom/pool/main/d/dkms bash: cd: /cdrom/pool/main/d/dkms: No such file | 13:05 |
| xubuntu004 | i put xubuntu instal disc , i wrrited it on dvd | 13:05 |
| cfhowlett | xubuntu004, right. skip that file and keep going. | 13:05 |
| xubuntu004 | disc | 13:05 |
| cfhowlett | xubuntu004, the install instructions were written for 10.04 and not updated to 12.04. I've been told the missing files were rolled into a newer kernel. | 13:06 |
| xubuntu004 | bomzas@bomzas-HP-G5000-GH972EA-ABU:~$ ^C bomzas@bomzas-HP-G5000-GH972EA-ABU:~$ cd /cdrom/pool/main/p/patch bash: cd: /cdrom/pool/main/p/patch: No such file or directory bomzas@bomzas-HP-G5000-GH972EA-ABU:~$ sudo dpkg -i patch* dpkg: error processing patch* (--install): cannot access archive: No such file or directory Errors were encountered while processing: patch* bomzas@bomzas-HP-G5000-GH972EA-ABU:~$ cd /cdrom/pool/main/f/faker | 13:08 |
| cfhowlett | xubuntu004, never seen that one before and it doesn't explain the error. You alternative is to plug into the internet on a hardwire connection, run the additional drivers app under system and see if that triggers the installation | 13:10 |
| xubuntu004 | i am not relly good in computers and dont know hot to do all that | 13:11 |
| xubuntu004 | now i connected on wire internet | 13:12 |
| cfhowlett | look at Settings>Additional Drivers | 13:13 |
| xubuntu004 | No propietary drivers in use | 13:25 |
| cfhowlett | xubuntu004, ask in #ubuntu channel | 13:26 |
| xubuntu004 | Thanx for help | 13:26 |

| [JJ]Albert | I have question about the proprietary catalyst drivers. | 21:15 |
| [JJ]Albert | At the moment, the latest drivers for FGLRX in the (X)ubuntu repository is at Catalyst 13.1. | 21:16 |
| [JJ]Albert | But the latest Catalyst drivers for Linux is 13.4 | 21:16 |
| [JJ]Albert | I've not installed it for fear of messing up my xorg settings, but trying to build the installer for my system (Xubuntu 13.04, AMD x86_64) | 21:17 |
| [JJ]Albert | -- It hasn't worked. | 21:18 |
| [JJ]Albert | The only installer for 13.4 I've found is only being made for the next Ubuntu/Xubuntu version. | 21:18 |
| [JJ]Albert | And that won't work, probably. | 21:18 |
| [JJ]Albert | So I want to know if there's an alternate for Raring that I could use to get the latest stable Catalyst drivers. | 21:19 |
| [JJ]Albert | FGLRX/Catalyst/AMD. | 21:19 |
| === azeam_afk is now known as azeam | ||
| bekks | [JJ]Albert: Why cantyou use the drivers shipped by your release? | 21:40 |
| [JJ]Albert | I can use those | 21:40 |
| [JJ]Albert | The problem is more with performance of drivers, and the fact that (And I've used Linux for longer even if I suck at it still, so don't assume I just came over for--) Steam on linux wont use 13.1 for big picture mode. | 21:41 |
| [JJ]Albert | But mainly performance. | 21:41 |
| Taylr0x | Can someone point me in the direction of how to get flash working with Firefox? I've tried grabbing it via the addons feature but it doesnt seem to work/install properly. | 21:45 |
| Taylr0x | !flash player | 21:46 |
| [JJ]Albert | I thought Flash Player came with Xubuntu by default? | 21:47 |
| Sysi | nope, licencing issues | 21:50 |
| Sysi | !restricted | 21:50 |

| [JJ]Albert | Oh, it must be because one opts for restricted extras at installation time. | 21:51 |
| Sysi | if you just want flash, install package flashplugin-installer | 21:51 |
| [JJ]Albert | I'm guessing by now that I should just wait for 13.10 instead of trying to install 13.4? | 21:52 |
| [JJ]Albert | Catalyst 13.4 that is. | 21:52 |
