| robby_ | I tried mv *.jpg ~/Pictures | 00:00 |

| daftykins | that would only work in one folder at a time, yeah | 00:01 |
| Brian21 | any one good using drbd? | 00:01 |
| robby_ | it didn't work | 00:01 |
| wilee-nilee | Brian21, The channel works with you stating the issue. | 00:02 |
| daftykins | robby_: if you're in one of the folders with the pics, it should definitely work. maybe with an additional / at the end | 00:03 |
| robby_ | daftykins, I'll try that | 00:03 |

| samX | hello all, i have a question about SD Card readers. | 00:19 |
| Prock81 | i wanted to add some lines to /etc/default/grub but it dont show | 00:20 |
| reisio | Prock81: means it was expecting something to be in /etc/default/grub with the string 'title', I'm guessing, but didn't find it | 00:20 |
| reisio | Prock81: what'd you want to add lines for? | 00:20 |
| reisio | samX: prove it | 00:20 |
| samX | My question is, why would my card reader work after initial install, but not after the updates and restart? | 00:20 |
| Prock81 | /etc/default/grub | 00:21 |
| Prock81 | err | 00:21 |
| reisio | samX: what all did you update? | 00:21 |
| Prock81 | title My XP from vhd | 00:21 |

| tripelb | Have virgin 12.04 with no net. How do I see the windows partitions? | 00:22 |
| wilee-nilee | samX, I have a acer d250 that works sporadically, it sems to want the card in when booted not just plugged in while desktop showing. | 00:22 |

| reisio | tripelb: /sbin/blkid | 00:22 |
| samX | from realtek | 00:22 |
| Prock81 | that was the error that -makeconfig gave | 00:22 |
| reisio | a lot of card readers have really awful contacts | 00:22 |
| reisio | probably due to being a million different types of card reader at once | 00:22 |

| Prock81 | i need to add a manual entry to grub, what file to edit | 00:28 |
| wilee-nilee | Prock81, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/ISOBoot | 00:28 |
| wilee-nilee | reisio, I had them on ignore and did not have the latest info thought it was still a grub problem, many users come here and you have to pry out pertinent info, I had to in this case. | 00:30 |
| Ben64 | samX: you might want to try using wine, and support for wine is in #winehq | 00:30 |
| reisio | yeah | 00:30 |
| === defined is now known as Left_Turn | ||
| samX | playonlinux uses wine | 00:31 |
| samX | i have wine 1.6 as the virtual host for the game, playonlinux is just an installer build to work with wine. | 00:32 |
| Ben64 | samX: its not the same | 00:32 |
| samX | you're right, they're not the same, but the game still loads with wine. playonlinux is just an interface for working with wine. all of the controls are done by wine though. | 00:33 |
| samX | all of the configuration is done in wine as well. | 00:33 |
| samX | but the issue is with the fact that it's a 32-bit game and i have a 64-bit install. | 00:34 |
| Ben64 | samX: regardless, support for wine is still in #winehq | 00:34 |
| samX | Oh, i see what your saying there. :D | 00:35 |
| samX | You so tricky. :P lol | 00:35 |
| Ben64 | and they probably won't help you with playonlinux | 00:35 |
| Left_Turn | hey will all my installed programs go to /home or / partition.. if that makes sense:( | 00:35 |
| Ben64 | there is a #playonlinux | 00:35 |
| daftykins | Left_Turn: software goes to /, settings go to /home/user/ | 00:35 |
| wilee-nilee | Left_Turn, depends on what is installed and how. | 00:36 |
| Left_Turn | oh.. its my / that is low in space.. should i have given / more than /home | 00:36 |
| Left_Turn | oh | 00:36 |
| daftykins | Left_Turn: mm, depends on how much media you have | 00:36 |
| wilee-nilee | Left_Turn, YOU can resize partitions with gparted on a live cd | 00:36 |
| Left_Turn | oh i see | 00:37 |
| samX | ok, then back to my sd card reader. i see the issue was fixed in kernel 3.4, but when you update after install, you're on Kernel 3.5. would that cause it to stop working after restart? | 00:37 |
| daftykins | Left_Turn: a lean install could get away with 10-20GB / but /home could be 100GB+ depending on what music/pictures/video you keep there | 00:37 |
| samX | after doing the updates that is. | 00:37 |
| wilee-nilee | Left_Turn, Turn off the swap if you do, and make sure we know if you have a lvm, raid, gpt...ect rather then a standard ext4 | 00:37 |
| Left_Turn | oh i see.. i dont plan on getting a lot of media mp3s etc.. mostly installs/software etc | 00:37 |
| Left_Turn | how do i turn off swap | 00:38 |
| wilee-nilee | Left_Turn, you can on the live cd with a right click on it in gparted | 00:38 |
| wilee-nilee | swap off | 00:38 |
| samX | again, it's an rts5116 PCI Express Card Reader. | 00:39 |
| wilee-nilee | Left_Turn, how big is the / | 00:39 |
| Left_Turn | oh i see... do i install gparted | 00:39 |
| Left_Turn | is 4GB | 00:39 |
| Left_Turn | ./ | 00:39 |
| Left_Turn | home is 7 and swap is 2 | 00:39 |
| wilee-nilee | Left_Turn, yeah way small, on a standard install, the live cd has gparted installed. | 00:39 |
| Left_Turn | oh i see | 00:39 |
| wilee-nilee | Left_Turn, Really depends on your use I see 20 gigs or so generally recommended for / but again depends on the use and install type, like is it a virtual, a wubi...etc | 00:41 |
| wilee-nilee | wubi would not have a seperate / is all. | 00:41 |
| Left_Turn | oh i see.. i will have to get it more space... its a dual installation with windows | 00:41 |
| tripelb | Reshi this in terminal right. . Is this a command? /sbin/blkid | 00:42 |
| Left_Turn | its telling me root privileges are needed to run gparted | 00:42 |
| === FreakingTea is now known as FreakingShower | ||

| Left_Turn | nope .. the install cd you mean? i can run that | 00:42 |
| wilee-nilee | Left_Turn, You have to you can't resize mounted file systems. I mentioned this already and used your nick. ;) using gparted on a live cd. | 00:43 |
| wilee-nilee | resize in linux anyway not a ext type. | 00:44 |

| quibble | using linux | 00:44 |
| wilee-nilee | quibble, gparted will delete | 00:45 |
| daftykins | quibble: do you want to keep anything else on the disk? is it Windows alone? | 00:45 |
| Left_Turn | im struggling to understand im a big noob... could i do this operation on windows and give it extra disk space | 00:45 |
| Left_Turn | oh sry i cant resize | 00:45 |
| wilee-nilee | Left_Turn, Not the linux partitions | 00:45 |
| Left_Turn | ok ill have to reinstall | 00:45 |
| samX | hrm | 00:45 |
| Left_Turn | with more space this time | 00:45 |
| wilee-nilee | Left_Turn, I doubt that, but do what you want. | 00:46 |
| quibble | daftykins wilee-nilee: I used to have windows, before it crashed and corrupted my computer's hard drive- now I want to get rid of everything related to windows so I can redownload a clean version | 00:46 |
| Left_Turn | i dont really understand what i have to do with gparted | 00:46 |
| Left_Turn | ill google i guess | 00:46 |
| quibble | also note: the windows i have now wont let me download a new windows, and it's saved somewhere NOT on the hard drive | 00:46 |
| daftykins | quibble: yeah what wilee-nilee said then - you could boot an Ubuntu liveCD and nuke it from orbit. | 00:46 |
| wilee-nilee | quibble, This a uefi setup? | 00:46 |
| quibble | wilee-nilee: i'm a noob, what | 00:47 |
| wilee-nilee | !uefi | quibble | 00:47 |

| quibble | daftykins: I'm using ubuntu right now on the corrupted computer, linux seems to be unaffected | 00:49 |
| daftykins | quibble: so it's installed on the same disk? | 00:49 |
| wilee-nilee | quibble, what is the windows installs release? | 00:49 |
| quibble | daftykins: not exactly, I replaced the hard drive and -then- downloaded linux. The windows there now is just what I would call 'windows downloader' | 00:50 |
| quibble | wilee-nilee: windows 7 | 00:50 |
| wilee-nilee | quibble, Cool, unlikely a uefi gpt. Do you want to reload that windows backup? | 00:51 |
| Ben64 | quibble: you keep using that word, i do not think it means what you think it means... download is to get information from the internet and save it on your computer | 00:51 |
| g0ran | hello guys I have a problem. I cannot adjust screen brighness on my laptop on ubuntu 13.04 with intel gpu | 00:51 |
| quibble | wilee-nilee: the corrupt windows takes over the 'windows downloader' even if reloading from a recovery/OS disk | 00:51 |
| quibble | Ben64: better term? | 00:51 |
| Ben64 | quibble: from context clues, it looks like you mean "install" | 00:52 |
| wilee-nilee | quibble, downloader? | 00:52 |
| wilee-nilee | quibble, Are you trying to run the recovery built in? | 00:53 |
| quibble | wilee-nilee: (i am using incorrect terms but bear with me) | 00:53 |
| quibble | ben64:ty | 00:53 |
| wilee-nilee | no problem | 00:53 |
| syn-ack | Windows? Downloader? huh? | 00:53 |
| === xubuntu_ is now known as GridCube_ | ||
| quibble | wilee-nilee: I wasn't using the built in recovery (that didn't work) i was using the disk recovery | 00:54 |
| quibble | windows usually comes with a recovery disk when you get a new computer | 00:54 |
| syn-ack | Doesn't sound like the recovery system is the issue, then | 00:54 |
| Ben64 | quibble: what is it you're trying to accomplish exactly, what is your end goal? | 00:55 |
| wilee-nilee | quibble, using the recovery disc how, and is this an actual oem reinstall set, or the tiny recovery disc? | 00:55 |
| quibble | wilee-nilee: It's the CD looking disk. Like the actual disk. It's supposed to reset windows when something goes wrong. It basically re-installs windows | 00:55 |
| wilee-nilee | Ben64, wanted to delete windows, I told them how and just asked if they wanted to reload a back they said they had. | 00:56 |
| quibble | Ben64: I am trying to get rid of the corrupt leftover windows that is preventing me from using windows, redownload a clean version. | 00:56 |
| Ben64 | quibble: then it seems you should be asking in ##windows | 00:56 |
| quibble | wilee-nilee will you move to ##windows? | 00:57 |
| samX | so is there anything anyone may be able to help me with with my card reader? | 00:57 |

| Hexagonite | osubuntu: It's not on the 'Search' section | 01:11 |
| Left_Turn | is there a way to delete all the unwanted software ubuntu gave me on installation | 01:12 |
| jrib | Left_Turn: sure, just uninstall whatever you want. Take care to not uninstall things you need... It may be easier for you to do a minimal install and then build from there | 01:12 |
| samX | ok, the name/title is lspci/lsusb/demsg | 01:13 |
| Left_Turn | i didnt see an option for minimal install | 01:13 |
| MonkeyDust | Left_Turn use the software center to look for software you don't (want to) use | 01:13 |
| jrib | !minimal | Left_Turn | 01:13 |
| ubottu | Left_Turn: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want. The installer is text based (rather than graphical as used on the Desktop DVD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 01:13 |
| Left_Turn | oh good idea | 01:13 |

| wilee-nilee | calligar, take you pick. http://askubuntu.com/search?q=+n600 | 01:16 |
| Ben64 | samX: the url of the pastebin | 01:16 |

| Ben64 | samX: what are those last two lines from | 01:18 |
| calligar | tis why i asked, had difficulty finding online, guess no one knows yet, oh well... | 01:18 |
| samX | the demsg | 01:18 |
| samX | they're the last lines after putting in the card | 01:18 |
| Ben64 | samX: dmesg should be a lot more than two lines | 01:19 |
| samX | it was, i guess i figured you'd just wanted the tail after putting the card in. | 01:19 |
| Ben64 | samX: you sure nothing before that is relevant? | 01:20 |
| wilee-nilee | Left_Turn, The minimal is a netload, it just starts the install to be downloaded. | 01:20 |

| samX | full demsg: http://pastebin.com/EP8CzFqn | 01:22 |
| wilee-nilee | Hexagonite, You have the latest chrome? | 01:23 |
| Hexagonite | wilee-nilee: Of course. | 01:23 |
| wilee-nilee | Hexagonite, http://internet.wonderhowto.com/how-to/enable-chrome-instant-for-faster-searching-and-browsing-0125256/ | 01:23 |
| wilee-nilee | in preferences I believe | 01:23 |
| Hexagonite | wilee-nilee: It's not on the 'Search' section though | 01:24 |
| Hexagonite | can't find it anywhere | 01:24 |
| Ben64 | samX: ok, what is the output of "lsmod" | 01:25 |
| wilee-nilee | Hexagonite, I don't use chrome so that is about it for me. | 01:26 |
| samX | lsmod: http://pastebin.com/h1HKGJri | 01:26 |
| Hexagonite | wilee-nilee: :( thanks anyway! | 01:26 |
| samX | crap, you going to be on for a while Ben64? I have to get ready to head to work. | 01:27 |
| nurow | can anyone recommend me an app to use in the place of QuickBooks on Ubuntu? | 01:29 |

| cynicist | Hexagonite: hey I was curious about your issue so I installed chrome myself and there is a checkbox in the search section for me to enable instant search | 01:40 |
| dommon | hi, I'm having issues getting my wireless card in my hp compaq nx6125 to work. I've got it on the wl driver, but it doesn't seem to recognize as a device outside of iwconfig. Thank you | 01:41 |
| cynicist | Hexagonite: so I'm not sure why it's not there in yours but it exists in both chromium and chrome for me. The version installed is 28.0.1500.95 | 01:41 |
| Hexagonite | cynicist: :( I'm even using Chrome 30.dev | 01:41 |
| Hexagonite | cynicist: what privacy settings are turned off on Chrome? one of them might be affecting Instant | 01:42 |
| ClientAlive | I'm confused. I'm trying to figure out (and install?) evernote | 01:42 |
| ClientAlive | Is evernote even made for linux (I mean as a recent release) or is evernote used through a web interface or something? | 01:43 |
| cynicist | Hexagonite: by default the only ones that aren't checked are the DnT setting and "use a web service to resolve spelling errors" but I'm surprised that the option doesn't even show up for you, maybe it has changed or moved in chrome 30? | 01:44 |
| usr13 | ClientAlive: sudo apt-get install evernote-mode | 01:44 |
| ClientAlive | right on. thx usr13 | 01:44 |
| netlar | ClientAlive: I think there is a scope for unity | 01:44 |
| ClientAlive | scope? | 01:45 |
| cynicist | Hexagonite: installing dev channel to check | 01:45 |
| ClientAlive | as in, the scope in programming? | 01:45 |
| Hexagonite | cynicist: thanks! | 01:45 |
| netlar | That will search your notes | 01:45 |
| ClientAlive | ahh | 01:45 |
| ClientAlive | I see | 01:46 |
| cynicist | Hexagonite: yep, the option is just gone from chrome 30 | 01:49 |
| ClientAlive | Well how is evernote used though? It may not be suitable for my purpose. I've converted a 75 pg .pdf document to .png with pdftoimage and separated the diagrams and text. What I want to do is create a storyboard type thing whare I can manipulate the text and images and create a set of 'diagrams' with the text attatched to it (similar to notes in uml but able to see all 75 pgs in one window). | 01:50 |
| Hexagonite | cynicist: oh. :( | 01:50 |
| ClientAlive | correction: *use a storyboard type thing* | 01:50 |
| netlar | ClientAlive: Actually everpad is an option | 01:50 |
| netlar | ClientAlive: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2012/09/use-evernote-in-ubuntu-with-everpad | 01:51 |
| ClientAlive | I need something wtih it's own interface and can use the mouse alot | 01:51 |
| cynicist | Hexagonite: this is just a guess but from how it seems to work I think it's just enabled by default and not even an option anymore | 01:51 |
| faz3 | ahalan! | 01:51 |
| cynicist | Hexagonite: I mean it works from the address bar like you would expect it to | 01:51 |
| Hexagonite | cynicist: can you try searching? it doesn't work here | 01:52 |
| cynicist | Hexagonite: yeah it works fine here, as soon as I start typing a website it starts pulling up relevant stuff even if it's not in my history | 01:52 |
| Hexagonite | cynicist: might be my connection then | 01:53 |
| Hexagonite | thanks for the support! | 01:53 |
| cynicist | Hexagonite: np man, I'd try resetting your chrome profile and maybe checking your net to see if chrome is being blocked somehow | 01:53 |
| cynicist | Hexagonite: gl :) | 01:53 |

| reisio | Prock81: why not? | 01:57 |
| nAn00k | prob lol | 01:58 |

| nAn00k | luco? | 01:58 |
| cynicist | Prock81: and then run grub-update afterwards | 01:58 |

| aj_ | I'd like to eventually completely erase my hard disk and get rid of windows 7 premium and just keep all 600 gigs on my laptop for this one OS. | 02:13 |

| daftykins | aj_: so you'd like to install/try Ubuntu first, i take it? | 02:15 |
| Th0masR0ss | The flood bots are being silly | 02:15 |
| Prock81 | i did ... sudo nano /etc/default/grub ... added title my entry and other lines ... sudo update-grub ... and i get this as the result... /usr/sbin/grub-mkconfig: 36: /etc/default/grub: title: not found | 02:15 |

| reisio | IdleOne: righto, no jokes for IdleOne | 02:15 |
| daftykins | aj_: just... use it 8D | 02:15 |
| nurow | when I print to PDF with Ubuntu, where does it save? | 02:15 |
| aj_ | I have my disk partitioned where 400 gigs is for win7 and 200 is for linux | 02:15 |
| IdleOne | reisio: you got it wrong. No more jokes for you in this channel. This is the final polite nudge you are going to get. | 02:16 |

| ClientAlive | I don't think everpad is the right package for me. I need a program for something and I don't want to use GIMP (if there is something better). I have .png images which came from a 75 pg .pdf. About half of them are diagrams and half text - but all are images (ie: .png). I need to lay them all out on a massive sized backgroud/canvas and begin cuttoing out portions of the text images and attatching them to the diagram images -> cratee somethign like a | 02:17 |
| ClientAlive | massive storyboard. | 02:17 |
| ClientAlive | I'm sure GIMP can do it but I can't use GIMP very well | 02:18 |
| reisio | ClientAlive: Inkscape | 02:18 |
| dr_willis | ! info mtpaint | 02:18 |
| ClientAlive | is inkskape complicated like GIMP (and photoshop) | 02:18 |
| ClientAlive | ? | 02:18 |
| reisio | ClientAlive: it's much simpler IMO | 02:19 |
| reisio | ClientAlive: and vector based | 02:19 |

| reisio | ClientAlive: you could also use scribus, though | 02:19 |
| reisio | ClientAlive: hard to tell by your description which would be more appropriate | 02:19 |
| dr_willis | Prock81: that added unfo does NOT go in that file | 02:20 |
| nurow | one more q: can anyone recommend an application for editing PDF files in Ubuntu? | 02:20 |
| ClientAlive | it's an old patent in .pdf where everything seemed to be lumped together as one long image | 02:20 |
| ClientAlive | but yeah | 02:20 |

| reisio | ClientAlive: man pdfimages | 02:21 |
| Prock81 | ive done that too, no error, but it never show on my menu, u did update-grub | 02:21 |

| nurow | sezzy, thanks | 02:21 |
| dr_willis | loook at the example custom file i that dir | 02:22 |
| Prock81 | and its sudo nano /etc/grub.d/40_custom | 02:22 |
| dr_willis | ive added custome entries to the 40_custome file | 02:22 |
| dr_willis | id definatly wont work in default/grub | 02:23 |
| Prock81 | does update-grub or update-grub2 make a difference for ubuntu 12.04 | 02:23 |
| dr_willis | Prock81: no differance | 02:24 |
| Prock81 | is whaT u saw fine for the sudo nano /etc/grub.d/40_custom | 02:25 |
| dr_willis | pastebin your whole 40_custom file | 02:25 |
| ClientAlive | Is there anything where you can breate dynamic effects too? Like mousover makes the text box pop up/ zoom in (like the mouseover on pictures in google). | 02:25 |

| Prock81 | reisio menuentry VS title | 02:32 |

| SonikkuAmerica | Hey! Small problem. I'm working with someone in #ubuntu-es who can't speak a whit of English, and they're stuck in a login loop on Ubuntu 12.04. We tried every trick in the book regarding .Xauthority ... any further suggestions? | 02:45 |

| wilee-nilee | dumnut, I have done this so many times I forget the actual process, it is an auto response now, and I'm assuming this is what is happening, make sure nothing is hiding behind another screen as well. | 02:49 |

| Guest8568 | does anyone here know where I can find which commands to run from a installation rescue shell | 02:53 |
| wilee-nilee | dumnut, The fun involves abuse sometimes, but we all get our kick somehow, I'm only human. | 02:54 |
| Guest8568 | everybody leavin' since I got here | 02:55 |
| wilee-nilee | Guest8568, you should state your problem overall for help maybe to the channel. | 02:55 |

| iampoz | thanks | 02:56 |
| Guest8568 | I am trying to install ubuntu using net install on a desktop 'puter. The installer was only getting to "install kernel" and failing, so I used expert command line mode and chose the virtual kernel now it fails at the next step. | 02:57 |
| nibbler | Guest8568: failing usually happens with an error message, which is very helpful in debugging any problem. | 02:58 |
| Guest8568 | so I am in a rescue install now and can't get past that. so the only option I have is to manually run | 02:58 |
| Guest8568 | the installation | 02:58 |
| wilee-nilee | Guest8568, are you Left_Turn? | 02:59 |
| Guest8568 | I am simply wanting to know where to find the documentation for what the installer does from that point on. | 02:59 |
| nibbler | my gnome3 shell got stuck somehow. alt-f2,r does not work. the "please enter a command" popup is stuck there. mousclicks work limited only. any way to execute the same as alt-f2,r in a regular shell? | 02:59 |
| Guest8568 | no wilee | 03:00 |
| wilee-nilee | nibbler, You running 3.8? | 03:00 |
| wilee-nilee | shell | 03:00 |
| nibbler | Guest8568: well, sounds like its almost done. i'd guess install the kernel, install + configure grub and its done | 03:00 |
| nibbler | wilee-nilee: gnome shell 3.6.3.1 | 03:01 |
| Matthew_Moore | Hey guys. How do i record both my voice and what i hear in my speakers at the same time? for purposes of recording audio from a voip call. | 03:02 |
| Guest8568 | it fails there... I tried apt-get -install grub and got "don't understand i in -install | 03:02 |
| wilee-nilee | nibbler, You can ctrl-alt-f2 to a tty and restart or run sudo stop lightdm then sudo start lightdm | 03:02 |
| reisio | Matthew_Moore: JACK | 03:02 |
| wilee-nilee | reboot that is* | 03:02 |
| samX | Are you still there, Ben64? | 03:02 |
| nibbler | Guest8568: the install is without a dash, just apt-get install ... | 03:02 |
| samX | sorry it took me so long to get back on. | 03:02 |
| samX | had to get my laptop setup at work. | 03:02 |
| Guest8568 | thanks... | 03:03 |
| Guest8568 | I'll try that and see what we get... | 03:03 |
| Matthew_Moore | reisio: thanx | 03:03 |
| nibbler | wilee-nilee: well, actually the ttys appear as black screen only. but i can use the gnome still - being in it right now. its just very broken. so no alternative way of alt-f2,r? | 03:03 |
| samX | I know this isn't an xchat chat, but isn't there a way to join multiple rooms? | 03:03 |

| samX | oh, nibbler, you got me there... :P lol | 03:04 |
| nibbler | samX: and for you it is, too.... | 03:05 |
| wilee-nilee | nibbler, You have a stuck alt-f2 prompt? not sure of any command line command. | 03:05 |
| samX | is there a way though, to do that? | 03:05 |
| samX | i can't remember. | 03:05 |
| john38 | Hello i need some help with something | 03:05 |
| nibbler | wilee-nilee: all black on alt-f2-f6. but thanks anyway | 03:05 |
| nibbler | samx: /join #oterchannel | 03:06 |
| john38 | Is it possible to merge unallocated space to my existing ubuntu partition????? | 03:06 |
| samX | yea | 03:06 |
| samX | i tried it and got it, lol | 03:06 |
| john38 | how | 03:07 |
| aj_ | JOhn, yeah, you can do it | 03:07 |
| aj_ | I would suggest you use gpartd | 03:07 |
| samX | i thought it would quit this chat. | 03:07 |
| aj_ | download that | 03:07 |
| nibbler | john38: basically yes. the "how" depends on the details. if you have lvm then its most easy. if not it would have to be at the end of your current partition or you might need to mess around with gparted | 03:07 |
| wilee-nilee | nibbler, In the shell alt-f2 brings up a popup is all for r to restart we are not on the same pages here. | 03:07 |
| === Rez is now known as LoRez | ||
| aj_ | and burn it to a disk; it'll be a bootable disk, using that, you'll be able to accomplish your wishes with the partitions and the free space | 03:07 |
| john38 | nibbler, should i use lvm or gparted | 03:08 |
| nibbler | john38: if you have lvm you dont need gparted. but you need to have your system installed on an lvm then. like /dev/mapper/foo mounted to / | 03:08 |
| john38 | nibbler, my partion is /dev/sda5 and ext4 | 03:08 |
| samX | Well, i'm going to open my question up to everyone. I have an rts5116 PCI Express SD Card. It was working after i installed, but after doing the updates and rebooting, it quit working. | 03:09 |
| samX | Here is my info. lsmod: http://pastebin.com/h1HKGJri full demsg: http://pastebin.com/EP8CzFqn lspci/lsusb/tail demsg: http://pastebin.com/iz7uHw8D | 03:09 |
| nibbler | wilee-nilee: ah right. my alt-f2 is stuck (like always on top, right now while i'm chatting), but also my ctrl-alt-f2 is broken, as in completely black. | 03:09 |
| me | hai | 03:09 |
| nibbler | john38: so lvm is no option. try gparted | 03:09 |
| === me is now known as Guest36272 | ||
| Guest8568 | LOL! I ran that and got "something wicked happened resolving ... (-11 - system error) | 03:09 |
| samX | if anyone can help provide me any insight, i would GREATLY appreciate it. | 03:09 |
| john38 | nibbler, ok | 03:09 |
| Guest8568 | is there a way to direct apt-get to another mirror? | 03:10 |
| Guest36272 | rm rf ~ | 03:10 |
| wilee-nilee | Guest36272, Do not ever post that!!!! | 03:10 |
| nibbler | Guest8568: you can configure apt via /etc/apt/sources.list and some .d directory | 03:11 |
| cynicist | john38: apt://gparted | 03:11 |
| Guest8568 | okay, thanks, nibbler | 03:12 |

| reisio | ChrisMaQ: well, most people spend their money on computers, which come with an operating system | 03:13 |
| john38 | can somebody help me use gparted | 03:14 |
| reisio | john38: what're you having trouble with? | 03:14 |
| john38 | reisio, well i want to use unallocated space and merge it with my existing linux partition to use it as additional free space not a separate linux partition | 03:15 |
| john38 | reisio, does that make sense | 03:15 |
| samX | anyone had a chance to look at my issue with my sc card? | 03:16 |
| cynicist | john38: is this on the root partition? | 03:16 |
| john38 | cynicist, i dual boot windows 7 and ubuntu /dev/sda1 and .../dev/sda2 is ntfs with 437.93 GiB total and........unallocated 147.91 GiB ....../dev/sda3 extended...../dev/sda5 ext4 and /dev/sda6 linux swap | 03:19 |
| cynicist | john38: and which partition do you wish to change the size of? | 03:19 |
| john38 | cynicist, i want to merge unallocated with existing linux i guess root? | 03:20 |
| zakaria | probleme with nvidia drivers in xubuntu 12.04 | 03:20 |
| john38 | cynicist, use unallocated and additional free space on root partition | 03:20 |
| Hexagonite | How do you delete the 'tmp' folder in your home directory? I got UCK and it didn't quite work. It left a 'tmp' folder for the ISO contents. | 03:20 |
| cynicist | john38: the reason I ask is because to change the size of the root partition you need to use a livecd | 03:20 |
| Hexagonite | Trying to delete it pops up 'crontabs cannot be deleted.' | 03:21 |
| john38 | cynicist, oh ok | 03:21 |
| cynicist | john38: since you can't edit a partition you are currently booted into | 03:21 |
| john38 | cynicist, i have to use livecd and do it from there | 03:21 |
| john38 | cynicist, well would i be able to do that with livecd | 03:21 |
| cynicist | john38: but from a livecd you can use gparted and just choose resize and then wait for the lengthy amount of time it could take :P | 03:21 |
| tgm4883 | I've acquired a macbook pro late-2008 model (5,1), can someone assist in booting and installing 13.04 on it? I've tried booting it, but I just get a boot error | 03:22 |
| john38 | cynicist, wiould livecd add that unallocated space to existing partition | 03:22 |
| cynicist | john38: when you choose to resize you are presented with an easy to use slider that you can move around to take more or less free space | 03:22 |
| samX | eek, entered the wrong command! lol | 03:22 |
| cynicist | john38: once you are in the livecd you would need to run gparted and change the size of your root partition by right clicking on it and choosing "Resize/Move" and then manipulating the slider to take up the rest of the free space on your disk | 03:23 |
| samX | ok, so is anyone familiar with the issue with the rts5116 card reader not working? | 03:24 |
| reisio | tumppu: whwat error? | 03:24 |
| john38 | cynicist, oook ..i assume gparted is the program that livecd uses huh? | 03:24 |
| cynicist | john38: well the livecd does partitioning in the installer, gparted is a separate program | 03:25 |
| cynicist | john38: I'm not even sure if it comes on the livecd by default but you can install it in order to use it | 03:26 |
| john38 | cynicist, but i have to boot up computer into livecd right | 03:26 |
| cynicist | john38: yes, definitely | 03:26 |
| john38 | cynicist, then why would i need gparted | 03:26 |
| ChrisMaQ | are there socializing room on this thing? | 03:26 |
| john38 | cynicist, if i can do that whole thing from livecd | 03:26 |
| cynicist | john38: because you are looking for a way to change your partition size without reinstalling ubuntu right? so the installer isn't useful there | 03:27 |
| wilee-nilee | ChrisMaQ, #ubuntu-offtopic | 03:27 |
| ChrisMaQ | thanks wilee-nilee | 03:27 |
| wilee-nilee | no prob | 03:27 |
| ChrisMaQ | join #ubuntu-offtopic | 03:27 |
| Guest8568 | I'm back... | 03:28 |
| john38 | cynicist, when i boot from cd is that an option in menu that will say update existing partion or do i go to install ubuntu | 03:28 |
| wilee-nilee | ChrisMaQ, /j #ubuntu-offtopic | 03:28 |
| Guest8568 | Is there an editor available in the installer shell? | 03:28 |
| stairmast0r | how can i check if my computer is using the correct graphics driver? | 03:28 |
| stairmast0r | i installed the AMD official driver for my radeon | 03:28 |
| wilee-nilee | stairmast0r, Hows it running? | 03:28 |
| samX | aticonfig --list-adapters | 03:29 |
| cynicist | john38: neither, you would go to the ubuntu software center, install gparted, then launch gparted to edit your partitions | 03:29 |
| samX | that should show you the adapters. | 03:29 |
| john38 | cynicist, i already installed gparted now | 03:29 |
| cynicist | john38: and you would do that on the livecd because you can't edit the partition you are currently booted into | 03:29 |
| stairmast0r | samX: i have two adapters listed, and for some reason it's choosing the wrong one. (onboard llano chip, but i want to use my discrete card) | 03:29 |
| john38 | cynicist, so what option do i choose when booting from livecd | 03:29 |
| reisio | Guest8568: probably gedit, maybe nano | 03:30 |
| john38 | cynicist, try ubuntu ...install unbuntu??? | 03:30 |
| stairmast0r | wilee-nilee: not too well at times, but i'm not sure if that's the fault of the drivers or not | 03:30 |
| wilee-nilee | stairmast0r, Generally proprietary drives are not suggested, as they don't follow kernel updates, so be prepared. | 03:30 |
| stairmast0r | wilee-nilee: mainly, java can't use openGL | 03:30 |
| cynicist | john38: you use try ubuntu, so you can get into the ubuntu desktop | 03:30 |
| Guest8568 | gedit won't come up... I'll try nano | 03:30 |
| cynicist | john38: from there you can launch the software center and install gparted | 03:30 |
| john38 | cynicist, right...ok | 03:30 |
| stairmast0r | Guest8568: vim :D | 03:30 |
| wilee-nilee | stairmast0r, I would know nothing about java. | 03:30 |
| john38 | cynicist, and from gparted i can resize unallocated to existing partition | 03:30 |
| samX | stairmast0r: it should give the options list for aticonfig if you type that seperately. I believe there is a command to set the other one as default. Otherwise, you should boot to your BIOS and disable the onboard if you're not using it. | 03:30 |
| stairmast0r | samX: i can't disable the onboard. i've tried. | 03:31 |
| cynicist | john38: yes, you just need the right click the partition you want to change and choose "Resize/Move" | 03:31 |
| john38 | cynicist, ok cynicist thanks..bbl | 03:31 |
| cynicist | john38: yw | 03:31 |
| wilee-nilee | stairmast0r, I have seen you on the channel before but have not followed any problems, you had help here on this issue in general? | 03:32 |
| stairmast0r | wilee-nilee: not really, no | 03:32 |
| samX | stairmast0r: try using aticonfig --adapter={the adapter # you're trying to use} --initial | 03:33 |
| stairmast0r | samX: eg. "1"? | 03:33 |
| stairmast0r | okay, now restart X? | 03:33 |
| samX | stairmast0r: then aticonfg --adapter=1 --initial | 03:33 |
| stairmast0r | samX: i did that | 03:34 |
| wilee-nilee | stairmast0r, You might try if you feel you need to, some drivers just don't have all the bling in linux due to no support fro the manufacturers as a general point. | 03:34 |
| stairmast0r | samX: the "default" marked with an asterisk is still adapter 0 | 03:34 |
| stairmast0r | wilee-nilee: they need to get on that... | 03:34 |
| wilee-nilee | stairmast0r, Post the actual card for help if you need any, I know nothing about graphic drivers. | 03:35 |
| stairmast0r | wilee-nilee: radeon HD6570 | 03:35 |

| reisio | kotek: it's intended more as a C IDE, AIUI | 03:37 |
| stairmast0r | wilee-nilee: not really.. those don't seem to relate to the card being recognized but not used. but thank you | 03:37 |

| stairmast0r | samX: i still believe linux is worth the extra effort you have to put in :D | 03:42 |

| reisio | (in reverse order :p) | 03:49 |
| john38 | cynicist, do i have to format the unallocated space | 03:49 |
| cynicist | john38: no | 03:49 |
| cynicist | john38: did you right click and choose resize? | 03:49 |
| _whitebeard | reisio: I can do that until I use chroot, which I have to do to get to the sources.list | 03:49 |

| reisio | _whitebeard: hrmm? | 03:49 |
| john38 | cynicist, yes it was all that way at both ends | 03:49 |
| cynicist | john38: and you are sure you have unallocated free space? | 03:50 |
| john38 | cynicist, i couldnt slide any more to take up unallocated space | 03:50 |
| samX | Ok, so, again, anyone know what i can try to get my rts5116 PCI Express SD Card reader working? | 03:50 |
| john38 | cynicist, yes im sure | 03:50 |
| samX | I've tried the manufacturer driver install | 03:50 |
| _whitebeard | reisio: I am trying to salvage a failing install | 03:50 |
| === linuxhack3r is now known as register | ||
| _whitebeard | and working inside the installers shell | 03:51 |
| john38 | cynicist, thing is what i did was go into windows 7 and used a third party partioning manager to change my free space to unallocated space | 03:51 |
| samX | I had to reinstall today and it did work after the reinstall, but then when i updated ubuntu and restarted, it stopped working. any thoughts? | 03:51 |

| wilee-nilee | john38, You have to resize the extended first | 03:53 |
| john38 | resize extended ?? | 03:54 |
| cynicist | john38: yeah I didnt know your partition layout, you can only have 4 primary partitions so if you have more than that you must have an extended partition | 03:55 |
| wilee-nilee | john38, Isn't sda3 an extended partition if I remember your original post? | 03:55 |
| john38 | wilee-nilee, yes | 03:55 |
| aneks | hey guys, does anyone know much about vsftp? | 03:55 |
| wilee-nilee | john38, That is a contaner for the rest click on its edge to resize. | 03:56 |
| john38 | wilee-nilee, thing is when i booted from livecd i couldnt reisize extended just ext4 | 03:56 |
| wilee-nilee | john38, Make sure the swap is off as well. | 03:56 |
| wilee-nilee | john38, A screen shot of gparted would help in an imagebin. | 03:57 |
| john38 | wilee-nilee, from livecd | 03:57 |
| john38 | wilee-nilee, ?? | 03:57 |
| wilee-nilee | john38, That would be best probably. | 03:57 |
| john38 | wilee-nilee, how to take screenshot again | 03:57 |
| john38 | wilee-nilee, can i access xchat from livecd | 03:58 |
| wilee-nilee | !imagebin | 03:58 |
| ubottu | Screenshots can be made with the [PrtScr] button. Want to show us a screenshot of your problem? Upload an image to http://imagebin.org/?page=add and post a link to it. | 03:58 |
| wilee-nilee | john38, I think it is on it, I forget, you can make a screen shot in the install for instructions, but live is easier as far as communicating. | 03:59 |
| cynicist | john38: yes you can join xchat from the livecd | 03:59 |
| john38 | wilee-nilee, ok be right back | 03:59 |
| samX | Ok, i'm back, i just wanted to see if reinstalling the sd card reader driver would fix the issue, but it doesn't. | 03:59 |
| wilee-nilee | john38, Did you have the swap off when you tried to resize the extended? | 03:59 |
| john38 | wilee-nilee, im not sure | 04:00 |
| john38 | wilee-nilee, do i have to unmount?? | 04:00 |
| wilee-nilee | john38, That may be the problem is all. | 04:00 |
| aneks | I configured a small FTP server at home and I've set the local_root= to the directory I want users to be directed to. When I log onto the FTP server locally on my Ubuntu machine, I get directed to the appropriate directory but if I log in remotely from a Windows machine, I get directed to the / directory. Does anyone know how I can fix that? | 04:00 |
| wilee-nilee | john38, Right click the swap then swap off. | 04:00 |
| john38 | wilee-nilee, ok | 04:00 |
| c2tarun | Hi friends, here is the screenshot of my tray icons. http://www.zimagez.com/zimage/screenshot-08032013-093126am.php I can figure out all the apps but not the third one from top, can anyone please help me in finding out what it is? | 04:03 |
| _whitebeard | gave up restarted the rescue install attempt... thanks for your help | 04:06 |
| _whitebeard | everybody | 04:06 |
| WebSearchingPro | c2tarun: Its an unused icon - its called "Launcher" | 04:06 |
| WebSearchingPro | you right click it to program it | 04:06 |
| c2tarun | WebSearchingPro, ohh.. when I am right clicking it I am getting the same menu when I right click on battery icon | 04:07 |
| WebSearchingPro | click properties | 04:07 |
| c2tarun | WebSearchingPro, panel's properties? | 04:09 |
| WebSearchingPro | Rightclick the little icon with the red thing that you were asking about. | 04:09 |
| WebSearchingPro | It should have a "Properties" option | 04:09 |
| c2tarun | WebSearchingPro, it has preferences which is taking me to XFCE Power manager settings | 04:09 |
| irssi-mike | aneks: why not use samba | 04:10 |
| WebSearchingPro | Ohhh its probably a shortcut to that then | 04:10 |
| WebSearchingPro | Or a broken icon | 04:11 |
| c2tarun | WebSearchingPro, how can I remove it? | 04:11 |
| WebSearchingPro | Rightclick the time, go to Panel > Properties | 04:12 |
| WebSearchingPro | *Panel Preferences | 04:12 |
| c2tarun | done | 04:12 |
| c2tarun | then? | 04:13 |
| WebSearchingPro | under the "Items" tab you should have a list | 04:13 |
| c2tarun | WebSearchingPro, yeah, I tried to go inside settings of Notification Icons but couldn't find this broken icon | 04:14 |
| WebSearchingPro | Weird, I'm not sure then :( | 04:15 |
| c2tarun | WebSearchingPro, np :) thanks for helping | 04:15 |

| osubuntu | benkillin, lol | 04:36 |
| benkillin | would you like to know why you executed it retarded? | 04:36 |
| osubuntu | benkillin, because I expected that it wouldn't work | 04:36 |
| benkillin | and did it not work? | 04:37 |
| osubuntu | of course it does not work | 04:37 |
| osubuntu | it is a root directory which is ALWAYS created | 04:37 |

| sarthor | HI, I am getting "totem-plugin-viewer requires to install plugins to play media files of the following type: text/html decoder" when I viewing some video from Moodle website. | 04:55 |
| emmtech | Help with configuring 'samba server' using to computers for networking....any suggestions? | 04:56 |
| dr_willis | !info samba-doc | 04:56 |
| ubottu | samba-doc (source: samba): Samba documentation. In component main, is optional. Version 2:3.6.9-1ubuntu1 (raring), package size 5615 kB, installed size 13734 kB | 04:56 |
| emmtech | does samba need to be installed on both computers? | 04:57 |
| dr_willis | emmtech: a client for samba does on one. server on other | 04:57 |
| dr_willis | ! samba | 04:58 |
| ubottu | Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT. | 04:58 |
| emmtech | great inform...etc...thanks | 04:58 |
| wilee-nilee | sarthor, Are those media files in the public domain, a link maybe? | 04:58 |
| dr_willis | what os are the pcs running? | 04:58 |
| emmtech | ubuntu? | 04:59 |
| dr_willis | you dont need samba for ubuntu to ubuntu shares | 04:59 |
| sarthor | wilee-nilee, NO you need to get register, then you can view that, it is a paid registration | 04:59 |
| dr_willis | nfs. or sshfs can work well | 04:59 |
| dr_willis | or ssh. scp. ftp. and so on | 05:00 |
| wilee-nilee | sarthor, These .mov | 05:00 |
| sarthor | wilee-nilee, .mp4 | 05:02 |
| wilee-nilee | sarthor, If .mov thats quick time apple stuff I believe https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.mov you sure not mp4v | 05:02 |
| sarthor | I can view the videos of youtube / facebook etc. | 05:02 |
| emmtech | so again if there isn't any need for 'samba' for ubuntu to ubuntu shares, you are suggesting nfs ssh? | 05:02 |
| sarthor | wilee-nilee, yea I am sure | 05:02 |
| emmtech | you got me thinking now? are there any open source services of this kind that my not require such payment or registration? | 05:03 |
| wilee-nilee | sarthor, I think your dealing with quicktime but a guess really. | 05:04 |
| emmtech | well "samba is opensource" | 05:04 |
| sarthor | may be, But I know the files are .mp4 | 05:04 |
| stairmast0r | what's the actual program name of the default 13.04 volume control/sound options window? | 05:05 |
| stairmast0r | my unity is broken so i can't start it normally | 05:06 |
| wilee-nilee | sarthor, read the wikipedia on that it is not that simple, and here is some more info. http://askubuntu.com/search?q=+text%2Fhtml+decoder | 05:06 |
| wickedpuppy | hmms ... alantop you pinged me? can I help you? | 05:06 |
| wickedpuppy | netsplit happening too many times | 05:07 |
| sarthor | wilee-nilee, I am trying to give you access to that files. | 05:07 |
| dr_willis | emmtech: samba is a open sourced version of ms share stuff. | 05:08 |
| dr_willis | emmtech: depending on your needs. other ways may work better | 05:08 |
| wilee-nilee | stairmast0r, here is a reset unity link you might check out. http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2013/04/how-to-reset-unity-compiz-in-ubuntu-12-10-and-13-04 | 05:09 |
| stairmast0r | wilee-nilee: my drivers aren't working | 05:10 |
| stairmast0r | i got fluxbox up, and moving a window takes like 10 seconds | 05:10 |
| stairmast0r | also, i tried that. dconf reset -f /org/compiz/ | 05:10 |
| GeorgeTorwell | why would my boot partition get modified without me knowing about it? And why do I have a pending "Ubuntu base" security update that has no technical description? Is the NSA trying to hack me? | 05:11 |
| stairmast0r | GeorgeTorwell: use lfs | 05:11 |
| GeorgeTorwell | lfs? | 05:11 |
| sarthor | wilee-nilee, can I send you PM? | 05:12 |
| wilee-nilee | GeorgeTorwell, You can loosen the tinfoil hat. ;) | 05:12 |
| GeorgeTorwell | yeah right | 05:12 |
| GeorgeTorwell | after all the spying revelations that came out | 05:12 |
| wilee-nilee | sarthor, I don;t do PM's | 05:12 |
| sarthor | wilee-nilee, ok. http://obdoo.net/course/view.php?id=3 check here please | 05:12 |
| GeorgeTorwell | my boot partition was modified and I dont remember installing any boot updates | 05:12 |
| GeorgeTorwell | why would ubuntu update grub files on /boot well after installation? | 05:12 |
| wilee-nilee | GeorgeTorwell, what did you install what release? | 05:13 |
| GeorgeTorwell | 13.04 | 05:13 |
| wilee-nilee | GeorgeTorwell, And did an update right? | 05:14 |
| GeorgeTorwell | I have a pending ubuntu security update but no technical description is given and no information is provided. How interesting | 05:14 |
| wilee-nilee | GeorgeTorwell, Honestly your lack of details makes your post questionable at best. | 05:15 |
| wilee-nilee | posts | 05:15 |
| wilee-nilee | and the paranoia | 05:15 |
| GeorgeTorwell | I've given all the details | 05:15 |
| Ben64 | you've given no details actually | 05:15 |
| GeorgeTorwell | theres no more details to give besides a security update without description. is anyone else seeing one? | 05:16 |
| GeorgeTorwell | And lets not pretend its paranoia now that we know the NSA uploads malicious firmware to android phones and cripples CPU pRNG instructions via Windows updates. | 05:17 |
| wilee-nilee | GeorgeTorwell, Show it to us in an imagebin or pastebin | 05:17 |
| GeorgeTorwell | ok | 05:17 |
| Ben64 | do you realize how many things would fall under "a security update" ? there are tons of those all the time | 05:17 |
| santhosh | hi how to create to active directory serverin ubuntu | 05:18 |
| GeorgeTorwell | hmm interesting | 05:19 |
| GeorgeTorwell | when I pipe the update through tor I get a description | 05:19 |
| GeorgeTorwell | but through my regular internet, nothing | 05:19 |
| dr_willis | most all ubuntu upsates would be security or major byg fixs | 05:19 |
| dr_willis | !latest | 05:19 |
| ubottu | Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa. | 05:19 |
| GeorgeTorwell | I hope Ubuntu starts offering those security updates through SSL | 05:20 |
| GeorgeTorwell | why should the NSA find out what packages we have installed so they can sit aorund and look for ways to exploit our systems? | 05:20 |
| wilee-nilee | !ot | GeorgeTorwell | 05:20 |
| ubottu | GeorgeTorwell: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! | 05:20 |
| dr_willis | your paranoia is showing | 05:21 |
| GeorgeTorwell | It wasn't off topic at all, it's an important security enhancement. | 05:21 |
| dr_willis | your rants are ot. | 05:21 |
| Arcademan | Hi there I can't get Ubuntu 13.04 to load properly is there anything I might try. Upon bootup I see black and white pixels right when lightdm loads | 05:22 |
| Ben64 | !nomodeset | Arcademan | 05:22 |
| ubottu | Arcademan: 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 | 05:22 |

| eclipse | and i'm stuck in 640x480 resolution | 06:22 |
| syn-ack | apodio, yep | 06:22 |
| hewhomust | eclipse, is it the only gpu or do you also have intel? | 06:22 |
| eclipse | i also have intel | 06:22 |
| linelevel | Hi, is it safe to put database passwords in my cronttab directly, as opposed to in a file with mode 600 which is read by a cronjob? The crontab can't be read by any other [non-root] user anyway, right? | 06:22 |
| apodio | alsa or pulse | 06:22 |
| syn-ack | apodio, Pulse. | 06:22 |
| apodio | think i have both not sure tho | 06:22 |
| apodio | ok | 06:22 |
| Loshki | syn-ack: you were close enough that I could google it without knowing anything else about it, that's good enough in my book. | 06:22 |
| syn-ack | eclipse, The current nVidia driver doesn't support optimus. Only the intel would work | 06:22 |
| apodio | ok i got it up | 06:23 |
| syn-ack | apodio, Ok so, click on input devices | 06:23 |
| eclipse | but it was working awhile back when i was on linux mint.. | 06:23 |
| eclipse | what about bumblebee? does that work? | 06:23 |
| apodio | ok i did and internal microphone shows up | 06:23 |
| apodio | but it doesn not show activity on it at the bottom | 06:23 |
| syn-ack | eclipse, you would still have to configure yourself an x config file | 06:24 |
| syn-ack | apodio, is it muted? | 06:24 |
| apodio | its at 32% volume so no i dont think it is muted | 06:24 |
| eclipse | well, how do i fix this resolution then? | 06:24 |
| eclipse | and the missing desktop | 06:24 |
| eclipse | the menu to the left is gone | 06:24 |
| Loshki | linelevel: right, the real risk IMO is if someone gets root access to your machine, which usually means anyone who has physical access to the hardware | 06:24 |
| syn-ack | I can only do one issue at a time. Would someone else please give me a hand | 06:24 |
| syn-ack | apodio, click on the mute button to mute it then unmute it again | 06:25 |
| apodio | eclipse i had this problem b4 try googling sumthing like xorg wizard setup | 06:25 |
| apodio | theres a command for it | 06:25 |
| apodio | to setup x | 06:25 |
| eclipse | alright | 06:25 |
| linelevel | Loshki: Right, but there's no keeping my db password safe in that case anyway, I figure. | 06:25 |
| syn-ack | apodio, well, it's a little more invloved that than that. he's got to install bumblebee as well | 06:25 |
| apodio | ok i did | 06:25 |
| apodio | oo | 06:26 |
| syn-ack | apodio, so is it working? | 06:26 |
| apodio | still nothing btw :c | 06:26 |
| apodio | no | 06:26 |
| syn-ack | hrm. k | 06:26 |
| apodio | is there a way to see if i even have the kernal modules loaded? | 06:26 |
| syn-ack | apodio, try pulling it up in the ALSAmixer | 06:26 |
| syn-ack | apodio, you have sound, right? | 06:26 |
| apodio | yea | 06:26 |
| syn-ack | then it's loaded | 06:26 |
| acidrain | i have an issue when clickin on torrent links (or any other link on the net that launches an application), when asked to chose an application to carry out the process i dont have any options. for example, im trying to use a torrent file, i can currently only save the link to desktop, and use transmission to open it. how can i make it so transmission automatically launches when i click on a torrent link? | 06:27 |
| apodio | mic boost is 0% | 06:27 |
| syn-ack | this is in ALSA? | 06:27 |
| apodio | yea | 06:27 |
| syn-ack | do the mute thing again, please | 06:27 |
| apodio | in alsa? | 06:27 |
| acidrain | i can click on "choose an application" but i cant find anything | 06:27 |
| Loshki | syn-ack: it's ok to be selective about what you answer if you get overloaded. When that happens I usually try and concentrate on the harder stuff | 06:27 |
| gt8ost4l | can anybody tell me if this would work https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LinuxWireless | 06:28 |
| syn-ack | apodio, yeah | 06:28 |
| syn-ack | Loshki, I do it in order of arrival. | 06:28 |
| Shashank | I tried to install g++ using sudo apt-get install g++ but it says you have broken dependencies. How to install g++ | 06:28 |
| apodio | ok it doesnt show M for mute but i did turned it down and then up wut are the settings it shud be? mic 100% mic boost is 0 internal mic is 40% | 06:28 |
| damian_ | hi | 06:29 |
| syn-ack | apodio, and is it working? | 06:29 |
| apodio | nope | 06:29 |
| syn-ack | turn the internal mic up some more. | 06:29 |
| syn-ack | sup, willis | 06:30 |
| etfb | LibreOffice has started opening up in a Firefox browser window instead of its own window! How do I fix that? Has anyone seen anything like that? | 06:30 |
| apodio | still nothing | 06:30 |
| shafox | Hi, I am on ubuntu 12.04 box, recently installed one apache2 update and since then all the virtual hosts are not pointing to the correct directories , its now pointing the default localhost . also i am getting one error on apache2 restart shafox@shafox:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart | 06:30 |
| shafox | * Restarting web server apache2 AH00558: apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.1.1. Set the 'ServerName' directive globally to suppress this message [ OK ]. I know the servername is not localhost but why there is a AH00558 stamp before the error message ?? | 06:30 |
| syn-ack | apodio, Remember that modem driver the other user found? | 06:30 |
| damian_ | hi guys im brand new to this shit and i have no clue as to what to do all i know is that like everything is impossible to figure out like installing java | 06:30 |
| syn-ack | apodio, download that for me, please | 06:30 |
| apodio | u mean off that link? | 06:31 |
| Loshki | linelevel: agreed, but note the risk of penetration goes up sharply IMO if you allow any kind of network access. | 06:31 |
| syn-ack | apodio, yessir | 06:31 |
| dr_willis | !java | damian_ | 06:31 |
| ubottu | damian_: To just use java you need a "Java Runtime Environment" (JRE) and/or a browser plugin. If that is not sufficient you will need a "Java Development Kit" (JDK) aka "Software Development Kit" (SDK). Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java about how to install one of three current implementations. | 06:31 |
| apodio | yea i need to update kernal tool i think cuz i cant even use it yet my kernel is behind it... lol | 06:31 |
| apodio | mite be kernel | 06:31 |
| linelevel | Loshki: It's a database server.. kind of hard to avoid. :P | 06:31 |
| syn-ack | wait | 06:31 |
| apodio | yea? | 06:31 |
| syn-ack | you're not up to date, apodio? | 06:31 |
| dr_willis | damian_: i just use the java in the repos | 06:31 |
| apodio | sadly no | 06:31 |
| syn-ack | apodio, Update, please | 06:32 |
| apodio | the distribution im using is apodio linux lol and i just installed a bit ago but | 06:32 |
| IdleOne | :/ | 06:32 |
| eclipse | argh this is hopeless | 06:32 |
| syn-ack | dr_willis, Android requires me to use Sun Java. :/ | 06:32 |
| dr_willis | !manual | damian_ | 06:32 |
| ubottu | damian_: The Ubuntu Manual will help you become familiar with everyday tasks such as surfing the web, listening to music and scanning documents. With an emphasis on easy to follow instructions, it is suitable for all levels of experience. http://ubuntu-manual.org/ | 06:32 |
| apodio | i did apt-get update upgrade etc and it did a kernel update | 06:32 |
| apodio | so idk | 06:32 |
| apodio | ill try tho | 06:32 |
| damian_ | yeah but i wanna install java so i can run games | 06:32 |
| etfb | Oh, never mind. Worked it out. | 06:32 |
| eclipse | btw how do you run xchat in tty | 06:33 |
| etfb | Turns out LibreOffice is unusable in Unity. | 06:33 |
| syn-ack | eclipse, you don't | 06:33 |
| eclipse | syn-ack why not? | 06:33 |
| syn-ack | eclipse, you have irssi, bitchX(if that's still around) and IRCII for TTYs | 06:33 |
| dr_willis | eclipse: try weechat for a console irc client | 06:33 |
| Loshki | syn-ack: I *wish* I could answer any and all questions in *any* order. Most of the time I have to pass cos I don't know the answer... | 06:33 |
| syn-ack | weechat's console too, eh? | 06:33 |
| dr_willis | dont use birchx ;-) | 06:33 |
| eclipse | thankyou. | 06:34 |
| damian_ | i dont even know how to set up the copy and paste this is sad | 06:34 |
| acidrain | i have an issue when clickin on torrent links (or any other link on the net that launches an application), when asked to chose an application to carry out the process i dont have any options. for example, im trying to use a torrent file, i can currently only save the link to desktop, and use transmission to open it. how can i make it so transmission automatically launches when i click on a torrent link? | 06:34 |
| syn-ack | Loshki, you'll learn | 06:34 |
| dr_willis | damian_: setup? details please. | 06:34 |
| Shashank | I tried to install g++ using sudo apt-get install g++ but it says you have broken dependencies. How to install g++ | 06:34 |
| syn-ack | Shashank, install the rest of GCC | 06:35 |
| sixtyby3 | Shashank, you could try apt-get install build-essential | 06:35 |
| overdub | damian_, any highlighted text will paste with the middle button | 06:35 |
| damian_ | im starting to feel i should just go back to windows 7 but its a little late for that so ill just have to learn | 06:35 |
| sixtyby3 | That did the trick for me | 06:35 |
| syn-ack | Shashank, sudo apt-get install bin86 build-essesntial | 06:35 |
| dr_willis | damian_: start with that ubuntu manual | 06:35 |
| Shashank | syn-ack I already have gcc. I can run c programms easily in my ubuntu but I can't run c++ codes | 06:36 |
| syn-ack | damian_, Theres no way to learn without doing | 06:36 |
| syn-ack | Shashank, Surely you mean compile | 06:36 |
| Shashank | yes compile | 06:36 |
| syn-ack | Shashank, Install what I told you to | 06:36 |
| apodio | im upgrading it to a generic 3.2.0-21 linux image kernel | 06:36 |
| syn-ack | apodio, That's better than what you' | 06:37 |
| syn-ack | ve got | 06:37 |
| apodio | yea ik :P haha | 06:37 |
| dr_willis | !compile | 06:37 |
| ubottu | Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first). Also read !checkinstall | 06:37 |
| apodio | meanwhile while ur free know any tips to make linux look sexier? :P | 06:37 |
| apodio | stuff like dockbars etc | 06:38 |
| aeon-ltd | apodio: too subjective, ask in offtopic and forums | 06:38 |
| syn-ack | apodio, I run console only. Sorry. | 06:38 |
| apodio | ok :c lol | 06:38 |
| apodio | its ok =o | 06:38 |
| dr_willis | you mean •gaudy• | 06:38 |
| Bil | Linux is sexy | 06:38 |
| apodio | ik :P it is | 06:38 |
| syn-ack | I have only an 80x80 display and thats how I like it | 06:38 |
| dr_willis | !dock | 06:39 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu includes several dock-like navigation bars. Some options are: avant-window-navigator, cairo-dock, docky (formerly part of gnome-do), stalonetray, simdock, kdocker, kooldock. | 06:39 |
| aeon-ltd | Bil: too bad it's not elegant | 06:39 |
| apodio | lol | 06:39 |
| Bil | sexier than what is it that windows is on . Whats sexier? | 06:39 |
| tones | syn-ack, a green screen? | 06:39 |
| syn-ack | tones, Nah, white on black | 06:39 |
| apodio | :p idk haha i juss like changing looks thats all | 06:40 |
| apodio | brbrolly gotta reboot | 06:40 |
| apodio | *prolly | 06:40 |
| apodio | yea brb | 06:40 |
| Bil | apodio why do you want to use Linux for? | 06:40 |
| aeon-ltd | oooh just missed them | 06:40 |
| damian_ | i feel they over complicate things on purpose on this os but maybe its because im new but i dont think so | 06:41 |
| Bil | what^^ | 06:41 |
| aeon-ltd | damian_: examples? | 06:41 |
| overdub | damian_, over time, you'll come to see that what looks like complexity, is actually freedom | 06:41 |
| syn-ack | damian_, Wait till you learn | 06:41 |
| dr_willis | damian_: they dont. its you.. :) | 06:41 |
| damian_ | well like how i have to use command prompt to help me install something like minecraft lol | 06:42 |
| overdub | the power is in the command prompt | 06:42 |
| aeon-ltd | you don't have to, if you already have java, launching the jar would do fine | 06:42 |
| overdub | guis are the confinement | 06:42 |
| damian_ | ill give it a go i guess it just seems the over complicate it | 06:42 |
| dr_willis | damian_: the omgubuntu site has a guide on minecraft | 06:42 |
| Artemis3 | damian_, to install free software, you don't need to. Is Minecraft free software? The author of it is responsible, not the os. | 06:42 |
| Bil | they dont over complicate its easier than it used to be ./configure; make; make install wasnt to hard to work out but what do Linux users have to cry about now? Nothing Linux is superior | 06:43 |
| dr_willis | i want sexier icons :-P | 06:43 |
| aeon-ltd | not if you use any complex peripherals | 06:44 |
| Bil | Design your own then at least linux lets you do that | 06:44 |
| aeon-ltd | but then again that is also the responsibility of the manufacturer | 06:44 |
| damian_ | so just wondering what type of advantages in something like minecraft would you get? | 06:44 |
| aeon-ltd | damian_: advantages from doing what? | 06:45 |
| Bil | nothing but what would windows give you the benefit of minecraft? | 06:45 |
| aeon-ltd | gpu drivers | 06:45 |
| gt8ost4l | can anybody tell me where do i find the version of the kernal thats running | 06:45 |
| dr_willis | in mineceaft? | 06:45 |
| damian_ | just having linux with "freedoms" like what freedom? | 06:45 |
| dr_willis | !gpl | 06:45 |
| ubottu | gpl is the GNU General Public License. See http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html | 06:45 |
| aeon-ltd | damian_: to do anything | 06:45 |
| Bil | gt8ost4l uname -r | 06:46 |
| damian_ | like alter the game completely? | 06:46 |
| aeon-ltd | damian_: don't like your UI? change it, don't like your terminal? change that, hate BASH? change that | 06:46 |
| Artemis3 | damian_, free software is available in the software centre, for example, "Minetest", which still needs some work to implement all in minecraft, but will get there. | 06:46 |
| aeon-ltd | damian_: no, minecraft isn't open source. though modding it is allowed i think | 06:47 |
| dr_willis | damian_: minecraft is not gpl free | 06:47 |
| aeon-ltd | damian_: it's not like minecraft has a shortage of mods | 06:47 |
| damian_ | well ill call it a night but thanks guys | 06:47 |
| Bil | its a 16 bit graphic game whys it so popular? | 06:47 |
| aeon-ltd | Bil: like lego but with zombies | 06:48 |
| Artemis3 | however, minetest = c, minecraft = java. The perfomance difference is astounding :) | 06:48 |
| shafox | Can anybody take look at this and tell me what is the issue http://superuser.com/questions/627441/recent-apache2-update-broke-virtual-host-and-new-error-on-restart-or-starting | 06:48 |
| damian_ | its not the bit that makes the game | 06:48 |
| Artemis3 | join the minetest community and make it do your will :) | 06:49 |
| damian_ | whats minetest? | 06:50 |
| Artemis3 | http://minetest.net/ | 06:51 |
| damian_ | its weird because i used to know every knook and cranny on windows then i went to linux | 06:51 |
| === |_ocke3 is now known as |_ocke | ||
| sukantk | hello | 06:52 |
| Artemis3 | you have to take time to learn things, no way around that. But consider how many people know the other os, and how few know this one, guess who will become more valuable :) | 06:52 |
| Bil | when you first used windows how at home or easy did you find it? | 06:52 |
| damian_ | very true and if it werent for this one half the features on other ones wouldnt exist because of this community | 06:53 |
| apodio | still nothing | 06:53 |
| damian_ | very very easy | 06:53 |
| Shashank | syn-ack, it says gcc is already the newest version | 06:53 |
| Bil | shashank you compiling? | 06:55 |

| shafox | apodio, me ? | 07:05 |

| syn-ack | apodio, according to this, you have intel audio, not nVidia | 07:06 |
| apodio | weird | 07:06 |
| shafox | well that will solve the generic error but what about the virtual host dir ? | 07:06 |
| syn-ack | apodio, what distro are you running? | 07:06 |

| acidflash | apodio: ok your device is being read by ubuntu, this is your device -> MCP72XE/MCP72P/MCP78U/MCP78S High Definition Audio | 07:20 |
| acidflash | apodio: now we need to check if there is drivers for it. | 07:20 |
| apodio | ok | 07:20 |
| syn-ack | drivers are loaded | 07:20 |
| syn-ack | he's got sound, acidflash | 07:20 |
| apodio | maybe its not the updated driver tho | 07:20 |
| apodio | tell me the command to run | 07:21 |
| apodio | lspci? | 07:21 |
| syn-ack | acidflash, it's snd_intel | 07:21 |
| syn-ack | apodio, you just upgraded your kernel. You have the newest drivers | 07:21 |
| acidflash | syn-ack: ok. | 07:21 |
| apodio | ok :c | 07:21 |
| Shoosah | hi guys, I just started working with ceph and I wanted to create a monitor | 07:21 |
| acidflash | apodio: im going to check if there is a specific driver for your version of HDA, your using generic snd_intel is generic. | 07:22 |
| apodio | ok ty | 07:22 |
| syn-ack | acidflash, Thanks for going over my work, but I just wanted to help ya along | 07:22 |
| apodio | and if u want to try to help using teamviewer etc let me know lol | 07:22 |
| acidflash | syn-ack: thanks, your saving lots of time. | 07:22 |
| apodio | ty both :P | 07:22 |
| acidflash | syn-ack: did you already check for specific drivers aswell? | 07:22 |
| apodio | not sure i tried alot tbh lol | 07:23 |
| syn-ack | acidflash, He's got the nForce chipset, but I'm unsure as to weather or not he needs the sound drivers for line in or if it's just for HDMI | 07:23 |
| syn-ack | whether, that is | 07:23 |
| apodio | i have no clue lol usually just one driver per device but i guess it kinda counts as two | 07:23 |
| Shoosah | I checked bootstrap-mds and bootstrap-osd | 07:24 |
| syn-ack | acidflash, AFAIK, that was just for HDMI out... | 07:24 |
| Shoosah | bt the keyrings was not in there | 07:24 |

| apodio | umm 3.2.0 something i think 1sec let me check | 07:25 |
| syn-ack | apodio, type this into your irc client | 07:25 |

| syn-ack | acidflash, he's on 12.04 | 07:26 |
| acidflash | syn-ack: thanks. | 07:26 |
| acidflash | apodio: I have a suggestion, might help might not, but its worth a try. | 07:27 |
| apodio | the actual like brand name of linux is apodio but its based off of ubuntu and debian i think | 07:27 |
| apodio | ok | 07:27 |
| acidflash | apodio: I would suggest removing alsa, and installing pulse audio | 07:27 |
| apodio | ill try anything | 07:27 |
| apodio | ok 1sec | 07:27 |
| apodio | purge alsa? | 07:27 |
| syn-ack | noooo | 07:27 |
| apodio | lol | 07:28 |
| syn-ack | just the userland | 07:28 |
| syn-ack | apt-get remove, not purge | 07:28 |
| apodio | ok :P | 07:28 |
| apodio | so juss apt-get remove alsamixer or wut? | 07:28 |
| acidflash | apodio: pulse audio might help to route things down the right irqs, _if_ the problem is with alsa. | 07:28 |
| Prock811 | how can i convert this to grub2 http://paste.ubuntu.com/5942884/ | 07:28 |
| shafox | Bill: Any clue ? | 07:28 |
| acidflash | apodio: yes. | 07:29 |
| apodio | ok alsa-base its uninstalled | 07:29 |
| apodio | reboot? | 07:29 |
| syn-ack | why? | 07:29 |
| Bil | shafox sorry nipped to the shop any clue on what? | 07:30 |
| syn-ack | You're in linux, not windows. :P | 07:30 |
| apodio | idk lol | 07:30 |
| apodio | so wut now | 07:30 |
| Prock811 | put my name if u talking to me | 07:30 |
| acidflash | apodio: look for and install pulse audio | 07:30 |
| apodio | ok sec | 07:30 |
| acidflash | aptitude search pulse | 07:30 |
| acidflash | that should bring up a list. | 07:30 |
| Shoosah | I started to use ceph and I followed the step in the webpage > http://ceph.com/docs/master/start/quick-ceph-deploy/ and I stuck in the gathering keys because the keys are actually not created in the bootstrap-mds and bootstrap-osd, then I thought the ringkeys which is in mon file might be copied into those files manually, then I proceeded to add ceph osd but I actually stuck in activating them without any response! do you have any idea | 07:31 |
| Shoosah | ?! | 07:31 |
| shafox | Bill: any clue on the question that I have posted in superuser for the same apache virtual host error . link here http://superuser.com/questions/627441/ | 07:31 |
| Bil | ceph is a file system and off topic | 07:31 |
| dr_willis | never even heard of ceph. its not in the repos eh? | 07:32 |
| apodio | ok its installed | 07:32 |
| shafox | for a virtual host in apache2 i have to do that in /etc/apache2/sites-available/ or /sites-enabled/ ? | 07:33 |
| acidflash | apodio: try and see if the mic volume bar is moving when you speak into it now? | 07:33 |
| apodio | ok sec | 07:33 |
| Prock81 | http://paste.ubuntu.com/5942884/ | 07:33 |
| apodio | nope :c | 07:34 |
| syn-ack | apodio, May I ask you if there's any particular reason you're on LTS? | 07:35 |
| apodio | LTS? | 07:35 |
| syn-ack | the version you're on | 07:35 |
| JohnathonDoe | Long Term Support | 07:35 |
| syn-ack | it's somewhat old, apodio. | 07:35 |
| apodio | o no its just the distro i downloaded | 07:35 |
| apodio | anyway i can upgrade? | 07:36 |
| JohnathonDoe | Yes | 07:36 |
| dr_willis | Prock81: ask in #grub perhaps | 07:36 |
| acidflash | do-release-upgrade | 07:36 |
| Bil | depends on whats in /etc/httpd/httpd.conf | 07:36 |
| syn-ack | I'm wondering if a distro jump wouldn't help solve the issue | 07:36 |
| apodio | ok sec | 07:36 |
| jdoles | apodio: don't do that. | 07:36 |
| apodio | y | 07:36 |
| acidflash | syn-ack: I doubt it would, his laptop is from 2008 (the board). | 07:36 |
| syn-ack | hrm. | 07:36 |
| acidflash | syn-ack: its worth a try though. | 07:36 |
| apodio | its worth a shot right? | 07:36 |
| jdoles | syn-ack: do you know what LTS means? | 07:36 |
| apodio | yea i thought so | 07:37 |
| apodio | sec | 07:37 |
| Bil | shafox the only thing missing from your http config is https everything else looks ok | 07:37 |
| syn-ack | I know exactly what it mean | 07:37 |
| syn-ack | s | 07:37 |
| jdoles | syn-ack: the whole point is that people do *not* need to mess with their systems. | 07:37 |
| JohnathonDoe | LTS is the most stable release. | 07:37 |
| jdoles | syn-ack: if for every tiny issue, someone recommends to upgrade to a non-LTS version, it completely loses its meaning. | 07:38 |
| syn-ack | Look, if he's not able to get hardware support on this version, a jump might not be out of the question | 07:38 |
| apodio | └─> do-release-upgrade Checking for a new Ubuntu release No new release found | 07:38 |
| JohnathonDoe | syn-ack: It's possible he has support but needs to muck with the configuration. | 07:38 |
| JohnathonDoe | Depends on the hardware. | 07:38 |
| acidflash | apodio: if you want to go to non-lts you need to change something somewhere, :) | 07:38 |
| syn-ack | jdoles, I'm one of the last people in the world to actually recommend a jump. | 07:38 |
| dr_willis | a live cd test would be a safeer test to see if the latest works | 07:38 |
| syn-ack | HOWEVER | 07:38 |
| acidflash | apodio: just a min i can pull it up for you, if your inclined to try. | 07:39 |
| syn-ack | dr_willis, Good point | 07:39 |
| apodio | yea | 07:39 |
| shafox | Bill: which http conf file ? | 07:39 |
| apodio | acidflash any chance u can help me directly? | 07:39 |
| === ubuntu is now known as Guest33461 | ||

| shafox | Bil* ^^ | 07:40 |
| Guest33461 | Hi all, I'm having trouble installing ubuntu. Every time I reboot I get 'kernel panic, init not found'. I did notice no partition has the boot flag set, could that be the cause? | 07:40 |
| shafox | Bil: there is no httpd dir under etc :( | 07:41 |
| Bil | guest that means the kernel couldnt load init | 07:41 |

| gt8ost4l | can anybody tell me which of the patches for my driver to install | 07:41 |
| shafox | Ok Bil: Should I reinstall Apache ? | 07:42 |
| Ben64 | apodio: what problem are you having? upgrading to 13.04 will likely not solve it | 07:42 |
| Bil | shafox propbably yeah as if /etc/httpd isnt there as even though Debian/Ubuntu call it apache2 it still uses the same directory structure | 07:42 |
| shafox | What I have to do for a clean Install Apache ? Bil | 07:43 |
| apodio | mic wont work but i get sound and its same card i think | 07:43 |

| Bil | shafox if your servers host name is non resolvable then thts wht you will get | 07:48 |
| Ben64 | oooaaaoooo: possible? yes. efficient, easy, reliable? no. | 07:50 |
| shafox | Bil: the server name and the hosts file all contain the same name , names are not different as you can see in the question that i have posted in the superuser http://superuser.com/questions/627441/ | 07:50 |
| Bil | shafox just add include path to sites enabled tou your mqain /etc/http/httpd.conf if that file isnt there then yes you need to reinstall Apache | 07:50 |
| shafox | Ok. Bil. Thanks | 07:51 |
| oooaaaoooo | Ben64: do you know of any notable attempts? | 07:52 |
| Bil | notable attempts on what? | 07:52 |
| Guest33461 | Is it required so set the boot flag on a partition for ubuntu to boot properly? | 07:52 |
| Bil | no guest | 07:53 |

| keith_ | Halo | 08:11 |
| Bil | nabn what? | 08:12 |
| Bil | I thought we had finished with dependency hell | 08:13 |
| nabn | Bil, i installed libconfig++-dev and the error went away. i now have new errors. i'll try dealing those. well, you asked for output of 'dpkg | grep gcc', but that returned some 'dpkg: error: need an action option' | 08:13 |
| nabn | Bil, thanks. | 08:13 |

| Sgarg2 | hi! I tried installing g++. but it shows the following error. g++ : Depends: g++-4.6 (>= 4.6.3-1~) but it is not going to be installed. What should I do? | 08:15 |
| Bil | <trijntje> init not found is a very generic error so we need to know what was if anything was changed , was the server resently rebooted? Have you tried booting from an older kernel? | 08:16 |
| trijntje | Bil, I just did a fresh install, so there are no older kernels | 08:17 |
| trijntje | I also checked the disk for errors, no errors found | 08:17 |
| dr_willis | trijntje: so has it ever worked\booted right? | 08:21 |
| Sgarg2 | I tried installing g++. but it shows the following error. g++ : Depends: g++-4.6 (>= 4.6.3-1~) but it is not going to be installed. What should I do? | 08:21 |
| trijntje | dr_willis, no, the first boot after install I get the kernel panic. The pc has been running ubuntu fine for over 5 years, including the version I'm trying to re-install now, 13.04 64bit | 08:21 |
| dr_willis | trijntje: i would verify the cd/usb and do a memtest. jyst to be sure | 08:23 |
| Sgarg2 | I tried installing g++. but it shows the following error. g++ : Depends: g++-4.6 (>= 4.6.3-1~) but it is not going to be installed. What should I do? | 08:23 |
| trijntje | dr_willis, I already verified the usb, no errors. I'll start memtest as well, but I cant imagine thats the problem | 08:24 |
| Sgarg2 | I tried installing g++. but it shows the following error. g++ : Depends: g++-4.6 (>= 4.6.3-1~) but it is not going to be installed. What should I do? | 08:25 |
| Sgarg2 | I tried installing g++. but it shows the following error. g++ : Depends: g++-4.6 (>= 4.6.3-1~) but it is not going to be installed. What should I do? | 08:25 |
| trijntje | hmm, memtest wont start, to small lower memory, whatever that means | 08:25 |
| dr_willis | install to the hd from a different pc.. move the hd over. ;-) | 08:25 |
| dr_willis | memtest from grub menu says that? | 08:25 |

| Sgarg2 | please some one help me. I tried installing g++. but it shows the following error. g++ : Depends: g++-4.6 (>= 4.6.3-1~) but it is not going to be installed. What should I do? | 08:26 |
| Ben64 | Sgarg2: you should look at what ubottu said to you | 08:27 |
| dr_willis | Sgarg2: once every 10 min is enough | 08:27 |
| dr_willis | figure out why its not going to be installed.... | 08:28 |
| Sgarg2 | dr wills I also tried installing using synaptic. It gives the same error | 08:30 |
| trijntje | dr_willis, yeah, the memtest from the installed system gives that error. The memtest from the live system says 'cannot run with older kernel' | 08:30 |
| Ubnoobtu | o/ | 08:30 |
| dr_willis | since synsptic is just an front end.. that makes sense | 08:30 |
| Sgarg2 | I also tried installing g++ 4.6 but it also depends on some other thing | 08:30 |
| dr_willis | trijntje: thats seems weird | 08:30 |
| dr_willis | i normally kust install the build-essential packages | 08:31 |
| trijntje | dr_willis, the memtest in grub has been broken for years now, no idea why | 08:31 |
| Sgarg2 | can you tell me the command to install build essential package | 08:32 |
| syn-ack | Sgarg2, sudo apt-get install | 08:32 |
| dr_willis | trijntje: weird. try a different distro like tinycorelinux 16mb in size.. see if it acts weird | 08:32 |

| Ubnoobtu | Oh, thanks, dr_willis and ubottu | 08:35 |
| dr_willis | Sgarg2: so you need to find out why its not going to be installed | 08:35 |
| jrib | Sgarg2: this is usually because you have used packages not from the official repositories for your distribution version (either through other repositories (like PPAs) or manually .deb installs). Can you speak to that? | 08:36 |
| Sgarg2 | how can I find out that? | 08:36 |
| jrib | Sgarg2: this would be something you remember. | 08:36 |
| Ubnoobtu | how susceptible is ubuntu to virus and like attacks. | 08:36 |
| dr_willis | Ubnoobtu: basically nil. | 08:37 |
| jrib | !virus | Ubnoobtu | 08:37 |
| ubottu | Ubnoobtu: Antivirus is something you don't need on !Linux. except where files are then passed to windows computers (perhaps using samba), See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus | 08:37 |
| Sgarg2 | can I completely uninstall gcc and then install it again. will it help? | 08:38 |
| dr_willis | tey it and see | 08:38 |
| dr_willis | tey | 08:38 |
| dr_willis | try | 08:38 |
| Ubnoobtu | Pretty great, does ubuntu have any flaws other than not being corporately pimped at the cost of the consumer? | 08:39 |
| Left_Turn | how to i enter root to run a program with root privileges? | 08:39 |
| dr_willis | wow.. buzzwords | 08:39 |
| dr_willis | !sudo | 08:39 |
| ubottu | sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (GNOME, Xfce), or !kdesudo (KDE). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo | 08:39 |
| Left_Turn | thanks | 08:39 |
| Sgarg2 | if I uninstall libstdc++6 synaptics says that it is an essential package and uninstalling it may result in disturbed system behaviour | 08:40 |
| Ben64 | Sgarg2: probably shouldn't do that then | 08:40 |
| histo | Ubnoobtu: it is pimped at the cost of the consumer's via ads | 08:41 |
| syn-ack | histo++ | 08:42 |
| Ubnoobtu | histo I can deal with the ads, just not the screwing over the windows does. | 08:43 |
| histo | Ubnoobtu: true | 08:43 |
| histo | Ubnoobtu: also it's easy to remove the shopping lens | 08:43 |

| trijntje | dr_willis, now running memtest from 32 bit 12.04-2, do you have any clue what the problem could be if it isnt faulty memory? | 08:44 |
| histo | !shopping | it's not FUD it's easy to remove | 08:44 |
| ubottu | it's not FUD it's easy to remove: If you wish not to see "More Suggestions" from places like Amazon in your Ubuntu, simply remove the package unity-lens-shopping, or adjust your Privacy settings as shown here: http://goo.gl/kFO4u . Mark Shuttleworth's blog entry on this is at http://goo.gl/uF7zZ | 08:44 |
| Ben64 | histo: that was directed towards syn-ack , not you. | 08:45 |
| syn-ack | wow | 08:45 |
| Ubnoobtu | Is there any other utilities that would be useful for a beginner to use or great to have to tinker with to see the potential this Os ofers? | 08:45 |
| dr_willis | trijntje: dozens if potential hardware issues. if it used to work and now dosent | 08:46 |

| stairmast0r | what's the actual program name of the default 13.04 volume control/sound options window? | 08:46 |
| sqrt7744 | does anyone know how I list all the files in /usr that are *not* both owned by root *and* in the root group? I can do the oppsite search, i.e. finding all files that are owned by root with find -user, but that doesn't help much | 08:46 |
| Left_Turn | in order to give space from 1 partition to another, do i have to unmount the drive? | 08:46 |
| syn-ack | Then call me out instead of triggering a bot, and if you don't like my opinion, so be it, but man up and we can have a debate about it in #offtopic. | 08:46 |
| histo | stairmast0r: isn't it gnome-volume-mixer or something | 08:46 |
| Ben64 | Ubnoobtu: probably a better question for #ubuntu-offtopic or #ubuntu-discuss | 08:47 |
| syn-ack | Gnome-volume-control, I thought | 08:47 |
| dr_willis | Left_Turn: you dont resize in use filesystems | 08:47 |
| trijntje | dr_willis, I just choose to reinstall because my windows needed more disk space, I had no issues with ubuntu before, and both windows and the live system run fine | 08:47 |
| Ben64 | syn-ack: i don't care about your opinion, but don't go fud'ing around in this channel | 08:47 |
| Ubnoobtu | histo| I whent there to see what they had to offer and it all seemed out of my skill level. i'm stll installing via GUI | 08:47 |
| histo | Left_Turn: yes it needs to be unmounted | 08:47 |
| stairmast0r | ahhh.. gnome-sound-applet gives you the tray icon | 08:48 |
| Left_Turn | ok thanks | 08:48 |
| histo | trijntje: well then something went wrong with your install or it has a newer kernel etc.. than the live cd | 08:48 |
| Ubnoobtu | ben64| rgr tht, sryy for crowding the chat up. | 08:48 |
| dr_willis | trijntje: on a different box. try a full unstall to usb. see if it works on the problem box | 08:48 |
| jrib | Sgarg2: I can help you but you have to answer the questions asked of you. | 08:48 |
| Ben64 | Ubnoobtu: not a problem, just the other channels are more open to conversations and suggestions of software and whatnot. this is for support questions only | 08:49 |

| trijntje | dr_willis, I'll try that after memtest has completed, still have 13.10 on an externa drive which should work | 08:50 |
| Left_Turn | guys so / is like for the OS, and /home is like for data storage? | 08:51 |
| histo | Left_Turn: /home is all yoru user files etc... | 08:51 |
| Left_Turn | oh i see | 08:51 |
| Left_Turn | so / should be made bigger than /home | 08:51 |
| histo | Left_Turn: / is everything else software, libraries, system wide configs are in /etc, logs in /var/log, boot files in /boot | 08:51 |
| histo | Left_Turn: No I would make /home bigger | 08:51 |
| histo | Left_Turn: if youa re used to windows think of /home as c:\Users | 08:52 |
| Left_Turn | or.. i have low space in / and /home seems unused histo | 08:52 |
| Left_Turn | oh i see histo | 08:52 |
| histo | !partition | Left_Turn | 08:52 |

| Ubnoobtu | Thanks guys, I look forword to seeing everyone again. best community I've see yet. thanks for the help and understanding. keep it up and dont be fud'ing, lol. | 08:52 |
| histo | Ubnoobtu: np anytime | 08:52 |
| Left_Turn | thanks | 08:52 |
| trijntje | Left_Turn, if your feeling lazy, just put everything on /. /home will be located in / anyway, so you dont have to worry about assigning enough space to / and /home | 08:53 |
| babinlonston | Will any one please verify my iptables ...............shall i put the pastebin | 08:53 |
| Left_Turn | i see.. ok thanks | 08:53 |
| Left_Turn | i wish i did that | 08:53 |
| histo | babinlonston: verify it for what? | 08:53 |
| histo | Left_Turn: well on the up side having a seperate /home is more beneficial if you ever reinstall you just blowout / but leave /home alone | 08:54 |
| Left_Turn | i see histo.. ill leave them separate then.. and look at gparted | 08:55 |
| babinlonston | histo: you here cool its .... i need it to apply it in my remote vps before that i want to verify it by any one professional like u ppls , i used it in local pc and its getting block after a reboot , so need to verify by u | 08:55 |

| ubottu | gparted is a !GTK/!Gnome !GUI partitioning program. Type « sudo apt-get install gparted » in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php | 08:56 |
| frojnd | Now I can't even delete or purge linux headers with apt-get. How do I free up space of /boot or remove headers? | 08:56 |
| frojnd | Left_Turn: It's a remote computer on whom I have only ssh access | 08:57 |
| Left_Turn | oh | 08:57 |
| Left_Turn | ? | 08:57 |
| frojnd | Left_Turn: I need to do it via ssh then. GUI apps don't help me | 08:58 |
| Left_Turn | sorry frojnd that was for me to search | 08:58 |
| frojnd | Left_Turn: ah :) Ok :D | 08:58 |
| Left_Turn | :) | 08:58 |
| jdale | Who was I talking to ? | 08:58 |
| histo | babinlonston: What do you mean it's getting block after a reboot? Does that mean it's working or not locally? | 08:58 |
| histo | babinlonston: also any reason you don't use ufw? | 08:59 |
| frojnd | Anyways, can somoene help me solve my problem with no space left on /boot partition and therefor can't use apt-get program? | 08:59 |
| jdale | I was talking to someone | 08:59 |
| jdale | Whi | 08:59 |
| histo | frojnd: are you sure / isn't full? | 08:59 |
| babinlonston | histo: its Ubuntu server 12.04 only have iptables not ufw checked already | 08:59 |
| jdale | Who? | 08:59 |
| frojnd | histo: yes: http://sprunge.us/WeG | 09:00 |
| histo | !ufw | babinlonston | 09:00 |
| ubottu | babinlonston: Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has built-in firewall capabilities. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | GUI frontends such as Gufw also exist. | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo | 09:00 |
| frojnd | histo: yes: http://sprunge.us/WeGb correct link | 09:00 |
| dr_willis | frojnd: askubuntu.com has shell scripts to clean out old kernels | 09:00 |
| histo | frojnd: well it's ugly but navigate to /boot and rm some older kernels and images | 09:00 |
| babinlonston | no the command ufw not working for me ... command not found | 09:01 |
| histo | frojnd: or use dpkg | 09:01 |
| frojnd | histo: I have some new kernels too that actually aren't in use, which is odd | 09:01 |
| babinlonston | ubottu: even man ufw tried | 09:01 |
| ubottu | babinlonston: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 09:01 |
| histo | frojnd: they aren't in use untill you reboot | 09:01 |
| babinlonston | lol | 09:01 |
| histo | babinlonston: sudo apt-get install ufw | 09:02 |
| jdale | Eh | 09:02 |
| babinlonston | histo: without doing iptables working then i dont want to intall it na | 09:03 |
| histo | frojnd: what happens when you dpkg -r packagename | 09:03 |
| frojnd | histo: now I don't know if I Want this, since new kernels aren't in use | 09:03 |
| Ben64 | babinlonston: what? you know iptables is not magical. you're not going to get hacked by downloading a package without iptables running | 09:03 |
| histo | frojnd: if you install a new kernel you can't use it until rebooting | 09:04 |
| frojnd | histo: that's the thing. It was an error | 09:04 |
| histo | frojnd: what was error? | 09:05 |
| frojnd | histo: due to no space left: http://sprunge.us/TgVM | 09:05 |
| osubuntu | sudo apt-get install ufo ? | 09:05 |
| * histo people have trouble with english tonight | 09:05 | |
| babinlonston | Ben64: im saying already there is iptables na then one more firewall need to be installed ? | 09:06 |
| histo | frojnd: yeah it can't generate a initrd if there is no space on /boot | 09:06 |
| frojnd | histo: and this is the list of kernels in boot, second and last are marked as active: http://sprunge.us/RDgj | 09:06 |
| user123 | right left click not working on desktop in ubuntu 13.04...what to do ? | 09:06 |
| histo | frojnd: either expand the /boot partition or remove a kernel that isn't being used | 09:06 |
| frojnd | histo: is it safe for me to remove linux-image-3.2.0-31-generic and linux-image-3.2.0-36-generic ? | 09:07 |
| histo | user123: panic | 09:07 |
| Ben64 | babinlonston: ufw uses iptables | 09:07 |
| histo | user123: is this a touchpad? | 09:07 |
| histo | frojnd: are you currently booting to either of those kernels? | 09:07 |
| frojnd | histo: I'm currently booted in (uname -a says:) 3.2.0-38-generic | 09:07 |
| user123 | histo: hp g6 notebook | 09:08 |
| histo | frojnd: If you don't need to boot them then ofcourse it's okay to remove them. I usually keep two kernels on my machines the current and one previous version | 09:08 |
| babinlonston | sudo apt-get install ufw | 09:08 |
| babinlonston | Reading package lists... Done | 09:08 |

| histo | babinlonston: then ufw allow or deny to your hearts content | 09:08 |
| frojnd | histo: I'll try with pkg, since apt-get is in error zone. Btw, what is the way to expand /boot? My / is 250GB which is huhe and /boto only has 100MB ? CLI - method | 09:09 |
| frojnd | s/huhe/huge | 09:09 |
| babinlonston | let me give the iptables in paste | 09:10 |

| frojnd | histo: just a sec | 09:10 |
| histo | user123: it was just a notebook previously now it's a desktop? | 09:11 |
| Ben64 | i bet since the new kernel is half installed, it's trying to complete that before removing anything else | 09:11 |

| frojnd | Ben64: that's is pretty much what is trying to do | 09:11 |
| osubuntu | in a shell script | 09:11 |
| osubuntu | it seems to do nothing | 09:12 |
| user123 | histo: the desktop screen and not physical desktop.....the system is still the same notebook | 09:12 |

| Ben64 | ikonia: what do i win? frojnd: ok, i'd suggest moving .36 or another old one out to / or /home or something, let it finish doing .51, then you can purge .31 and put the old file back, etc, blah blah | 09:12 |
| babinlonston | histo: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5943106/ | 09:13 |

| osubuntu | jrib, I run a script which contains that with sh, but the shell doesn't seem to switch | 09:13 |
| jrib | osubuntu: correct. It only matters if you execute the file. e.g. ./foo.sh | 09:13 |

| jrib | osubuntu: let's take a step back. What exactly do you want to accomplish? | 09:15 |
| histo | frojnd: then get rid of another one and apt-get -f install | 09:16 |
| osubuntu | jrib, nothing, just asking.... | 09:16 |
| Ben64 | frojnd: time to remove more old kernels then | 09:16 |
| user123 | histo: any solutions ? | 09:16 |
| jrib | osubuntu: when you execute the file, the interpreter you specify in the shebang line will be used. i.e. You run "./file.sh", the operating system sees the shebang line "#!/bin/bash", the operating system then runs /bin/bash file.sh. If you don't execute the file directly but instead decide to pass it to some other program then that other program will launch. So if you call "zsh file.sh" zsh will launch and | 09:18 |
| jrib | if it's programmed to, interpret its first argument, file.sh. Or if you launch "gedit file.sh" gedit will launch and open file.sh for you to edit. | 09:18 |

| user123 | histo: default | 09:23 |
| Ben64 | frojnd: 28MB should be enough to install the new one, you really should get a bigger /boot or get rid of the /boot partition all together | 09:24 |

| histo | user123: if you log out and back in are you able to click on your desktop? | 09:24 |
| frojnd | Ben64: will try and remove /boot later. Hm so apt-get -f install should do it now? | 09:25 |
| Ben64 | frojnd: yeah | 09:25 |
| user123 | histo: no...tried it already | 09:25 |
| jrib | nantou: not that it matters much but you should probably either unset http_proxy or just set it to "", not to ";". As for chromium, it probably uses system settings which are stored and accessed through some GNOME api (guessing). Check your chromium settings | 09:25 |

If you tell people that you are unable to right click on the desktop would be a little better description than your mouse buttons don't work. As you've stated they work in other places. | 09:26 |

| fishcooker | what happen ther | 10:10 |

| fishcooker | anyone how to solve that instantnyl | 10:11 |
| Ben64 | frojnd: yeah thats normal, it builds the grub.cfg using that and other parts | 10:12 |
| frojnd | but where do I tell it to use .38 kernel in case with 51 goes something wrong | 10:12 |
| SuperLag | Gegsite: I'm sorry, man. I'm not even going to pretend to know how to fix that. I have Blender installed, as well... and I didn't have to do anything with the stock Python to get it to work. | 10:12 |
| Gegsite | I try to reinstall python | 10:13 |
| SuperLag | Gegsite: I'd try to just reinstall python-dbus, first | 10:13 |
| fishcooker | http://paste.ubuntu.com/5943250/ | 10:14 |
| Ben64 | frojnd: i would normally say the GRUB_DEFAULT=0 line, but i'm not sure if the old kernels can be selected that way anymore | 10:14 |
| fishcooker | anyone has the same problem | 10:14 |
| SuperLag | Gegsite: go with the simplest solution before you try something drastic | 10:14 |
| fishcooker | it happen when i type command "htop" | 10:14 |
| frojnd | Ben64: because of new GRUB and everything? | 10:14 |

| wildc4rd | I am getting loads of 'system problem detected' messages at the moment, on 13.04, is this normal, and is there a log somewhere I can look at to find out why? | 10:36 |
| saschagehlich | is ext4 stable yet? | 10:36 |
| ThePendulum | wildc4rd: I got these a lot too, and since it's usually a false negative or insignificant, I ended up disabling the prompts :P | 10:36 |
| wilee-nilee | wildc4rd, Those problems list what they are, any third party stuff like from PPA's | 10:36 |
| ThePendulum | wildc4rd: If you find yourself being able to continue normal operation time after time, and this isn't a machine used professionally, I'd personally justs set enabled=0 in /etc/default/apport | 10:38 |
| ThePendulum | This disables the error message. | 10:38 |
| wilee-nilee | I purged it | 10:38 |
| ThePendulum | It's a grey area to do that, but well | 10:38 |
| ThePendulum | I personally found it happening too often | 10:38 |
| defined | hey i downloaded codec to play dvds... but i get error messages from my DVD drive when i try putting in data disks. why? it says unable to mount dvd volumn. | 10:40 |
| amrit | hi | 10:40 |
| === defined is now known as Left_Turn | ||
| ThePendulum | Left_Turn: I am assuming the disc is known to be working? | 10:40 |
| flipper88_fl | is there is ppa for vlc? | 10:41 |
| Left_Turn | yes it works on my windows.. ThePendulum | 10:41 |
| Left_Turn | but not ubuntu | 10:41 |
| ThePendulum | flipper88_fl: ppa:n-muench/vlc | 10:41 |
| wilee-nilee | flipper88_fl, yes | 10:41 |
| amrit | whats the visual difference in 12.04 and 13 | 10:41 |
| Gegsite | that shitty kazam keeps erroring anyways | 10:41 |
| ThePendulum | flipper88_fl: I don't want to be mean... but it was the first Google result ;) | 10:41 |
| Gegsite | I did uncomment those lines from /usr/bin/kazam and still ha an error now it is module : 'gi' | 10:42 |
| Gegsite | I think he can import any moduls at all | 10:42 |
| MonkeyDust | wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww | 10:43 |
| MonkeyDust | oops | 10:43 |
| ThePendulum | Are you okay, MonkeyDust? | 10:43 |
| ThePendulum | I mean we have to ensure no one dropped dead on his keyboard after a line of coke or something | 10:44 |
| Gegsite | IF somebody can make a zip pack from /usr/lib/python* and end me many thanks | 10:46 |
| Left_Turn | also how can i get my ubuntu screen display as clear as my windows | 10:46 |
| kk | hello guys | 10:47 |
| HypnotiX | I have 3 ext4 partitions and i want to merge them, is it possible to that and keep the data from my main one ? | 10:47 |
| kk | I am windows user and would like to learn Ubuntu..Any god starting place? | 10:47 |
| HypnotiX | to do that* | 10:48 |
| Gegsite | kk, youtube? | 10:48 |
| Andi1337 | @kk install ubuntu first under wine or use a virtual machine | 10:48 |
| kk | Getsite, tried but somehow i missed it | 10:48 |
| kk | I have instaleld on | 10:49 |
| jrib | kk: help.ubuntu.com | 10:49 |
| kk | Virutalboc | 10:49 |
| jrib | !manual | kk | 10:49 |
| ubottu | kk: The Ubuntu Manual will help you become familiar with everyday tasks such as surfing the web, listening to music and scanning documents. With an emphasis on easy to follow instructions, it is suitable for all levels of experience. http://ubuntu-manual.org/ | 10:49 |
| MonkeyDust | kk boot a live cd or usb, hile you're in it, do some reading, click around a bit, see what's where etc https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwitchingToUbuntu/FromWindows | 10:49 |
| kk | and using irc via ubuntu | 10:49 |
| SuperLag | Gegsite: reinstall. | 10:49 |
| kk | thanks. will check guys | 10:49 |
| HypnotiX | you mean me SuperLag | 10:49 |
| MonkeyDust | kk and get to know nixie pixel | 10:49 |
| kk | Yes thats my goal. Need to start learning Ubuntu fast for my work | 10:50 |
| SuperLag | Gegsite: seriously. You mess with something so crucial to the system, I wouldn't trust it after that.... unless you're able to completely undo what you've done, by going in reverse. | 10:50 |
| kk | Thanks guys for the links. will check | 10:50 |
| SuperLag | HypnotiX: no, I mean Gegsite | 10:50 |
| HypnotiX | I have 3 ext4 partitions and i want to merge them, is it possible to do that and keep the data from my main one ? | 10:50 |
| SuperLag | no | 10:50 |
| Gegsite | SuperLag, I just want to use kazam for fun but it is not a must have , whatever | 10:51 |
| HypnotiX | so i just erase everything and create a partition :( | 10:51 |
| Gegsite | in any other program I did not notice any problems so FU kazam | 10:51 |
| === Quaaad is now known as Lajjla | ||
| SuperLag | Gegsite: why are you blaming the app, when you likely caused the issue? :) | 10:52 |
| MonkeyDust | HypnotiX backup first, if you start experimenting with partition | 10:52 |
| MonkeyDust | s | 10:52 |
| Gegsite | how do you know I had done it 100%? | 10:52 |
| SuperLag | Gegsite: moving python libraries? | 10:53 |
| Gegsite | if I uncoment the "import dbus" line from kazam still not findig the next import stuff | 10:53 |
| SuperLag | Gegsite: and that app depends on python bits, in order to work | 10:53 |
| SuperLag | Gegsite: that's exactly the point | 10:53 |
| Gegsite | I did reinstall from synaptic the python-dbus python* libs nothing helpd | 10:54 |
| SuperLag | Gegsite: your whole python setup seems hosed... and simply dropping a copy of someone else's in.... that's not going to do | 10:54 |
| Gegsite | so either synaptic is not reinstalling or kazam is bad | 10:54 |
| SuperLag | Kazam works for me, just fine. | 10:54 |
| Gegsite | these python files are just files, copy paste will work | 10:55 |
| SuperLag | Okay. Whatever you say. | 10:55 |
| SuperLag | that's obviously worked so well for you, up to this point :) | 10:56 |
| Gegsite | haha, recordmydesktop is no problem to work... | 10:56 |
| HypnotiX | why is ubuntu so awesome compared to windows? | 10:56 |
| Gegsite | nope it is not awesome | 10:57 |
| HypnotiX | i think it is so far | 10:57 |
| HypnotiX | boot times, memory usage | 10:57 |
| HypnotiX | i like unity much more then win 7 gui | 10:57 |
| SuperLag | HypnotiX: good hardware helps, too. :) | 10:57 |
| Gegsite | lack of programs like pro cad cam software etc | 10:57 |
| HypnotiX | thats not linuxs fault :P | 10:57 |
| SuperLag | Gegsite: if it's so bad, then why waste time with it? | 10:57 |
| ThePendulum | Okay this is odd | 10:57 |
| ThePendulum | I plugged in my laptop | 10:57 |
| ThePendulum | But it's not charging... | 10:58 |
| SuperLag | Gegsite: or did you just come here to troll? | 10:58 |
| ThePendulum | It does charge on Windows | 10:58 |
| Left_Turn | any programmers here? | 10:58 |
| Gegsite | I use linux for more than 15 years SuperLag so save time to say that | 10:58 |
| SuperLag | Left_Turn: just ask your question | 10:58 |
| ThePendulum | Left_Turn: I'm mainly a webdev but shoot | 10:58 |
| SuperLag | Gegsite: sure. | 10:58 |
| SuperLag | Gegsite: I'm convinced. | 10:58 |
| HypnotiX | pendulum backend or frontend ? | 10:58 |
| Left_Turn | ubuntu comes with a lot of languages... if i remove all 3rd party packages during instalation.. will i still recieve all the languages? | 10:58 |
| ThePendulum | HypnotiX: bOTH | 10:59 |
| ThePendulum | *caps invert | 10:59 |
| Left_Turn | i want languages but i dont want all the extra software | 10:59 |
| SuperLag | Gegsite: if you'd had that much experience, then you'd likely have had this issue fixed, and on your way.... a LONG TIME AGO | 10:59 |
| HypnotiX | how do you go about testing in ie in ubuntu | 10:59 |
| MonkeyDust | HypnotiX you don't | 10:59 |
| jrib | Left_Turn: it's not clear what you mean by "3rd party package during instalation" nor is it clear what you mean by "all languages" | 10:59 |
| SuperLag | HypnotiX: Wine would be the easiest, I think | 10:59 |
| HypnotiX | i installed virtualbox for that | 10:59 |
| SuperLag | HypnotiX: then use that | 11:00 |
| SuperLag | HypnotiX: much cleaner keeping that stuff in a VM | 11:00 |
| HypnotiX | so far i noticed that browsers render differently in linux :( | 11:00 |
| MonkeyDust | HypnotiX yes, that's the way to do it and the advice you'd get | 11:00 |
| Gegsite | SuperLag, because I use it I'm not a programmer IT genius | 11:00 |
| ThePendulum | HypnotiX: I usually develop on my main PC and test it on Windows on my laptop (both machines are dual booted), including I.E. If that's not an option, I usually use a virtual machine or this site where you can select browsers on different OS' and it will show you a screenshot (not sure what the site's called again). | 11:00 |
| Left_Turn | jrib my installation was too big.. during installation there was an option to include 3rd party software which i did.. im wondering if i deselect this option.. will i still get languages like python, java etc | 11:00 |
| MonkeyDust | HypnotiX that's because windows != linux | 11:00 |
| client | Thependulum how do I check for events when loading an index.html file? | 11:00 |
| Gegsite | If I say ubuntu is not awesome compare to any other OS why it is a problem? | 11:00 |
| ThePendulum | client: You mean whether something goes wrong, or what? | 11:01 |
| jrib | Left_Turn: that's probably not much just some codecs and such (not sure). What does "too big" mean exactly? You don't have hard drive space? | 11:01 |
| HypnotiX | well its weird tbh, same version of firefox renders differently in linux then windows | 11:01 |
| ThePendulum | Gegsite: Feel free to say that. It's just that most people in here opted for Ubuntu thus think it's better than other OS' :P | 11:01 |
| HypnotiX | same fonts | 11:01 |
| SuperLag | Gegsite: I'd say it's counterproductive to come into an Ubuntu support channel, and start slamming Ubuntu... for errors you caused. | 11:01 |
| Left_Turn | yeah im out of space in my '/' | 11:01 |
| Left_Turn | jrib | 11:01 |
| client | like say I'm loading an index.html file and its redirecting me somewhere to a remote auth page. how do I check the code/event that is pushing me there? | 11:01 |
| jrib | Left_Turn: how big is /? | 11:01 |
| Left_Turn | jrib do u know if lubuntu provides python | 11:02 |
| Left_Turn | 4GB | 11:02 |
| ThePendulum | client: Assuming you didn't create index.html (otherwise you would've put the code in there yourself?) | 11:02 |
| jrib | Left_Turn: it does. Didn't we tell you about minimal install yesterday though? You can pick only the packages you want there | 11:02 |
| Gegsite | ubuntu is not kazam and not windows. I just said that | 11:02 |
| client | It's ironic Gegsite. You could be sitting in a win7 irc instead, but here you are... | 11:02 |
| Left_Turn | im unsure about manually picking stuff | 11:02 |
| ThePendulum | client: Most browsers let you check the source with ctrl + u. I.e. Chrome has a more advanced debugging tool, it's available when right clicking on a page. The redirect should be visible when doing that. | 11:02 |
| Gegsite | just try to make kazam work sorry | 11:02 |
| flipper88_fl | Left_Turn: you ought to be finew with a46-32gb flash stickl as an imaged backup/install nedium | 11:03 |
| jrib | Left_Turn: also, even if lubuntu didn't provide python (it does because python is used all over the place), you can still install things through apt after the initial install | 11:03 |
| SuperLag | Left_Turn: I'm going out on a limb saying so... but I think nearly all Linux distros provide some form of Python, by default | 11:03 |
| ThePendulum | This is so strange | 11:03 |
| ThePendulum | My laptop is plugged in and charging... | 11:03 |
| ThePendulum | And Ubuntu just thinks the battery magically increases power | 11:03 |
| Left_Turn | python is only an example... i just want all little things programming related included | 11:03 |
| jrib | Left_Turn: you can install whatever you want afterwards | 11:04 |
| ThePendulum | Left_Turn: You want ALL the dev tools? | 11:04 |
| flipper88_fl | With wine and everything else my root partiton is 6.3GB | 11:04 |
| ThePendulum | I mean, there are dozens of lagnauges | 11:04 |
| client | ThePendulum is this advanced debugger tool available only in chrome or chromium too? | 11:04 |
| ThePendulum | client: Both | 11:04 |
| Left_Turn | ok thanks guys i think i know what to do now | 11:04 |
| ThePendulum | client: It's developed to Chromium and adapted in Chrome | 11:04 |
| ThePendulum | My / is 6.6GB | 11:05 |
| jrib | Left_Turn: is there no more room for you to make a bigger /? | 11:05 |
| ThePendulum | My Windows root is 70GB | 11:05 |
| ThePendulum | Over 10 times as big | 11:05 |
| ThePendulum | Go figure... | 11:05 |
| client | I see the source but I don't see the events @ ThePendulum | 11:05 |
| Left_Turn | there is... but it involves gparted.. i just want a clean install.. jrib | 11:06 |
| ThePendulum | client: Maybe the redirect is happening on the back-end? | 11:06 |
| ThePendulum | I.e. in PHP or Ruby | 11:06 |
| ThePendulum | Whatever the site uses | 11:06 |
| ThePendulum | You can't view the source of that without access to the server | 11:06 |
| jrib | Left_Turn: honestly, if you have more room I would make / a bit bigger. You'll likely regret it later if you don't | 11:06 |
| ThePendulum | 0:22 left... 0:25 left... 0:30 left | 11:06 |
| ThePendulum | C'mon Ubuntu | 11:06 |
| ThePendulum | You know it's charging | 11:07 |
| Left_Turn | yes jrib ill give it more space in a new install... but i dont really want to do this process with gparted | 11:07 |
| Left_Turn | is there anyway i can tell ubuntu to make the installation less than 5 gb | 11:07 |
| client | Left_Turn I would advise you to separate your dev environment from your everyday linux usage. | 11:07 |
| ThePendulum | I am a dev and I do not do this | 11:08 |
| client | Left_Turn you can. By using something like Lubuntu or Xubuntu. | 11:08 |
| ThePendulum | client: Why, if I may ask? | 11:08 |
| Left_Turn | right Lubuntu seems the best choice atm @ client | 11:08 |
| Left_Turn | im just tired of wasting dvds on tiny iso files | 11:08 |
| ZIPY | i prefer xubuntu over lubuntu | 11:08 |
| ThePendulum | Aaaah, Lubuntu, the XP gui of this decade | 11:08 |
| client | Take for example, the ports issue @ThePendulum. When you install lamp, you don't want that lamp to be on your everyday linux system too. | 11:08 |
| ThePendulum | Left_Turn: Use a flash drive? | 11:09 |
| Left_Turn | dont have 1 | 11:09 |
| ZIPY | like xfce more then lxde | 11:09 |
| ThePendulum | You can make a USB live CD with a tool like UNetbootin | 11:09 |
| ThePendulum | Oh | 11:09 |
| ThePendulum | Left_Turn: They aren't too expensive... | 11:09 |
| client | Left_Turn my current system is 10 years old. Runs pretty ok on Xubuntu. looks nice too. | 11:09 |
| Left_Turn | i need linux now.. not tomorrow:( | 11:09 |
| Left_Turn | so xubuntu ove lubuntu? | 11:09 |
| ThePendulum | client: Ooooh, like that. Yeah, my server is seperate, but my actual development (the editor, the SSH sessions, the graphical editors, the testing, etc.) still happens on my main system. | 11:09 |
| Left_Turn | over* | 11:09 |
| ZIPY | xubuntu first | 11:09 |
| ThePendulum | Left_Turn: I'd opt for that, yes | 11:10 |
| MonkeyDust | Left_Turn there is a learning curve, like with everything | 11:10 |
| ZIPY | if it is still to slow u can go the lighter one lubuntu :P | 11:10 |
| client | I haven't used lubuntu so I can't criticise it. But xubuntu is very pretty. | 11:10 |
| ThePendulum | Xubuntu at least looks okay | 11:10 |
| ZIPY | but there is not much difference | 11:10 |
| ThePendulum | Lubuntu... well, not for me tbh | 11:10 |
| Left_Turn | ok thanks.. xubuntu ill try | 11:10 |
| ThePendulum | It looks like Windows XP | 11:10 |
| ZIPY | same here | 11:10 |
| ThePendulum | Although KDE is even worse imo | 11:10 |
| ThePendulum | (Not to critise the devs, they do a great job) | 11:10 |
| jemark | rather gnome2? | 11:10 |
| ThePendulum | But it's not my flow of design | 11:10 |
| client | ThePendulum have you looked at nitrous.io ? | 11:10 |
| ThePendulum | jemark: Xubuntu is very easily configured to look like gnome2 imo | 11:11 |
| ThePendulum | I wish I saved my configs | 11:11 |
| ThePendulum | client: I have not, I'll check it out | 11:11 |
| jemark | ThePendulum: indeed | 11:11 |
| ThePendulum | client: Not sure if it's for me. I'm rather comfortable with my Ubuntu development set-up | 11:11 |
| client | I was doing some course on coursera and some guys recommended nitrous.io instead of using AWS | 11:11 |
| ThePendulum | Mind you, I am mainly a webdev, so I don't have to compile | 11:12 |
| client | yeah all these cool web tools come with a restricted "free" tier. | 11:12 |
| ThePendulum | I do my coding mainly in gedit and vim | 11:12 |
| client | gedit :'D | 11:12 |
| ThePendulum | It works just fine :P | 11:12 |
| client | do you use node.js ? | 11:13 |
| ThePendulum | I don't | 11:13 |
| ThePendulum | I probably should | 11:13 |
| MonkeyDust | what's node.js ? | 11:13 |
| client | Looool MonkeyDust :'''''''''''D | 11:14 |
| client | node.js is what Ruby on Rails was 3 years ago | 11:14 |
| ThePendulum | I want to learn Ruby | 11:14 |
| ThePendulum | But I am going to college in September and we'll be learning Python | 11:15 |
| ThePendulum | ugh. | 11:15 |
| client | Ruby can't scale | 11:15 |
| client | but you can get an 80k job with it | 11:15 |
| Left_Turn | hey since my data dvd cant open... can ubuntu open winrar files? | 11:15 |
| ThePendulum | Well PHP isn't too great either | 11:15 |
| client | plus a 0.5% equity in a startup | 11:15 |
| ThePendulum | Left_Turn: Winrar files being .rars? | 11:15 |
| NewWorld | ThePendulum: what are you complaining about? python is HUGELY popular | 11:15 |
| Left_Turn | yes ThePendulum | 11:15 |
| ThePendulum | Left_Turn: It can, yes | 11:15 |
| Left_Turn | ok great.. thanks | 11:16 |
| client | ok, if PHP and Ruby suck. Is Python/Django the next best option? | 11:16 |
| ThePendulum | NewWorld: Well, yes, but it's not all too great for webdev and I'd rather dev in C++ for desktop | 11:16 |
| ThePendulum | client: Python for webdevelopment isn't too optimal | 11:16 |
| client | I've heard that PHP is optimised for Apache. As far as scaling goes, its the best option | 11:17 |
| ThePendulum | I heard a bunch of arguments against PHP | 11:18 |
| ThePendulum | Honestly, I'm still happely using it | 11:18 |
| ThePendulum | *happily | 11:18 |
| client | which framework are you using? | 11:18 |
| ThePendulum | I'm afraid, Dave... My English is going. | 11:18 |
| client | if any*** | 11:18 |
| Kumara_Ilija | Hello everyone, Kumara_Ilijahere and i'm here and ready to DDoS. | 11:18 |
| amireldor | Don't know about ruby, but Django can scale, PHP can scale, and all is nice. PHP has some flaws in its design (google for "php sucks"), but PHP can still do the job | 11:18 |
| ThePendulum | client: Depends on the application. Momentarily, none, and I'm starting to notice that. I used to use CodeIgniter. | 11:18 |
| ubnoobtu | hey All. | 11:19 |
| ThePendulum | hey ubnoobtu | 11:19 |
| client | CodeIgniter is dying. The original dev team is abandoning it | 11:19 |
| ThePendulum | I guess | 11:19 |
| ThePendulum | I really need something low-profile | 11:19 |
| client | ubnoobtu :'D | 11:19 |
| ThePendulum | CodeIgniter was huge, too | 11:19 |
| amireldor | what's the recent hype in the php frameworks world? | 11:19 |
| client | there's waves being made about laravel. very lightweight | 11:19 |
| ThePendulum | Something to handle routing, an MVC model and templates, and maybe some modules like auth and cookies | 11:20 |
| ThePendulum | That's enough for me | 11:20 |
| ThePendulum | *breadcrumbs | 11:20 |
| ThePendulum | not cookies | 11:20 |
| ThePendulum | lol | 11:20 |
| FloodBot1 | ThePendulum: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 11:20 |
| ThePendulum | knock it off laddy | 11:20 |
| ubnoobtu | Can someone tell me, where the hell do I find the program list, or better yet, how do I sellect an app to open a link? | 11:20 |
| ThePendulum | ubnoobtu: I don't think there's a list of programs like in Windows... | 11:20 |
| ThePendulum | If there is, I've never seen or needed it | 11:20 |
| client | definitely not in hell ubnoobtu :p | 11:20 |
| amireldor | ubnoobtu, what do you mean by opening a link? | 11:20 |
| ghking | hello everyone. I have registered an account in http://www.vps.me/ ,but it new an phone number in usa to active it. unfortunately i am in china.who can help me to active it, i will send my account to you, thank you very much really! | 11:21 |
| blazemore | !ot | ghking | 11:21 |
| ubottu | ghking: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! | 11:21 |
| client | ThePendulum lets write one and post on GitHub :D | 11:21 |
| ThePendulum | client: It would be | 11:21 |
| ThePendulum | ugh, Enter, go away | 11:21 |
| ThePendulum | It would be 50% awesomeness and 50% 'dafuq's this?' | 11:21 |
| amireldor | ThePendulum, there are some decent micro-web-frameworks in php | 11:21 |
| ThePendulum | I account for the latter 50% | 11:21 |
| ThePendulum | I know there are | 11:21 |
| ThePendulum | I just don't know which ones :/ | 11:22 |
| ubnoobtu | Im trying to dl some infovia magnet link... but yea,,, when I open the maflink, it doesnt show the avaible apps t process it | 11:22 |
| ThePendulum | And someone recommends something now, and in half a year, it's absolute crap all the sudden | 11:22 |
| jrib | ThePendulum, amireldor: please move the framework/web language discussion to #ubuntu-offtopic. Let's keep #ubuntu dedicated to technical support related to ubuntu | 11:22 |
| ThePendulum | Same on ##hardware :O 'Get a monitor with DisplayPort, it's the next big thing!'. Now I have two, and I'm better off with HDMI. | 11:22 |
| client | there's only 1 place worse for getting answers to your questions. Stackoverflow | 11:22 |
| ThePendulum | jrib: Fair enough | 11:22 |
| ubnoobtu | sorry, its dark in here, I swear I know how to spell. | 11:22 |
| client | ok ok jrib we'll move :D | 11:23 |
| amireldor | ubnoobtu, are you trying to download a torrent with a magnet link? | 11:23 |
| === kalce is now known as _doctor_love_ | ||
| Left_Turn | see this is what i dont understand. my DVDR data CD for hours has been returning errors as to why it can't open.. then without me doing anything it just randomly opens.. what gives? | 11:23 |
| ubnoobtu | amireldor | yes | 11:23 |
| blazemore | !details | ubnoobtu | 11:24 |
| ubottu | ubnoobtu: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 11:24 |
| darm0k | hi i got a problem | 11:24 |
| amireldor | ubnoobtu, and when you click a link on firefox you can't find transmission (the default bittorrent client in ubuntu) | 11:24 |
| darm0k | i tried to start darmok at tanagra but it won't run | 11:24 |
| blazemore | ubnoobtu: Try Transmission which comes with Ubuntu, or Deluge which is in the repositories and can be installed easily through the Software Centre. Both these bittorrent clients will handle magnet links | 11:25 |
| blazemore | !details | darm0k could you re-state that? | 11:25 |
| ubottu | darm0k could you re-state that?: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 11:25 |
| darm0k | i tried to start the module darmok from program tanagra, but it always comes with an error like "shaka when the walls fell" | 11:26 |
| ubnoobtu | I'm using 13.10 , I'm trying to download some motown cause I like oldies and I just got this pc. I currently have two downloads running from a diferent site, but I go to PB, and do the usual, and transmission isn't appearing. I DL'd qb, thinking the updated cersion would help with maglinks, and its not appearing on the "which app to open" list. | 11:26 |
| jrib | darm0k: ok, haha... let's move on | 11:26 |
| yeats | Left_Turn: /var/log/syslog should have some messages about /dev/sr0 (or /dev/dvd or /dev/cdrom) | 11:26 |
| darm0k | maybe its' a tamarian Horse? | 11:27 |
| amireldor | ubnoobtu, try /usr/bin/transmission, or look in /usr/bin (not on ubuntu right now so can't check) | 11:27 |
| ubnoobtu | ty, | 11:27 |
| ubnoobtu | doing it now | 11:27 |
| jrib | darm0k: it was a good joke, but back to support please | 11:27 |
| BluesKaj | Howdy all | 11:27 |
| Left_Turn | thanks yeats | 11:27 |
| Kumara_Ilija1 | Hello everyone, Kumara_Ilijahere and i'm here and ready to DDoS. | 11:29 |
| ubnoobtu | so usr/bin is the dirrectory for all the programs? And what else? | 11:29 |
| ubnoobtu | Hi | 11:29 |
| jrib | !fhs | ubnoobtu | 11:29 |
| ubottu | ubnoobtu: An explanation of how files and directories are organized on Ubuntu, and how they can be manipulated, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LinuxFilesystemTreeOverview see also: man hier | 11:29 |
| Left_Turn | umm.. yeats not only did my dvdr data cd open..it open all of my windows drives?? my OS, data ?? | 11:30 |
| Left_Turn | i can see them on ubuntu | 11:30 |
| Left_Turn | which is actually not a bad thing:) | 11:31 |
| Left_Turn | is this behaviour normal.. to see the drives and files of your windows OS on ubuntu? | 11:32 |
| jrib | Left_Turn: yes | 11:32 |
| Left_Turn | oh | 11:32 |
| gregor_ | dose anyone know any smtp servers that i can telnet to to send mail on the command line ? | 11:32 |
| Left_Turn | so i did a whole lot of backing up for nothing:( | 11:33 |
| jrib | Left_Turn: those are the good kinds of backups. You make backups but you never want to use them. | 11:33 |
| jrib | never regret a backup -_- | 11:33 |
| Left_Turn | true jrib.. as a result i think i may now stick with ubuntu rather than xubuntu | 11:34 |
| darm0k | shaka when the walls fell | 11:34 |
| Left_Turn | ill learn gparted sometime in the future | 11:34 |
| darm0k | you don't need that | 11:35 |
| iKillCypher | hello guys how do I install ubuntu 13.04 64bit without having an CD Or USB | 11:36 |
| peppercornmedley | with wubi? | 11:36 |
| iKillCypher | wubi is only 12.04 | 11:36 |
| ikonia | iKillCypher: most realistic advice, buy a usb stick or cdrom | 11:36 |
| Alabulie | hello. Can I design a program with WinForms in MonoDevelop in Ubuntu 12.04 ? | 11:37 |
| Alabulie | (in C#. I mean) | 11:37 |
| iKillCypher | I lend it to my friend | 11:37 |
| iKillCypher | is there any other way to install 13.04 | 11:37 |
| iceroot_ | Alabulie: #mono #c# or something like that | 11:37 |
| Left_Turn | sorry to be a pain... i was curious and clicked on work spaces.. and i have 4 desktops running in parallel.. is thi normal all the time, or should only 1 run as they eat resources? | 11:37 |
| iceroot_ | Left_Turn: they dont eat much resources | 11:38 |
| iceroot_ | Left_Turn: and 4 is the default | 11:38 |
| Left_Turn | ok i see.. thats great | 11:38 |
| Left_Turn | never saw that with windows | 11:38 |
| iceroot_ | Left_Turn: its also possible in windows, just not the default | 11:38 |
| Left_Turn | ah ok i see | 11:39 |
| ChrisFR06 | Hi there, I would like to have some nice looking widgets on my desktop on Ubuntu 13, how is that possible ? | 11:39 |
| ZIPY | ChrisFR06: conky is best for that, but its not easy to configure customize, but u can download some configurations | 11:41 |
| ChrisFR06 | Ok, i'll try it out | 11:41 |
| ChrisFR06 | But is it true that you can pick the widget stuff from KDE (don't know howw its called anymore) and put it on gnome (ubuntu) ? | 11:42 |
| ikonia | ChrisFR06: you can't mix like that | 11:42 |
| kolo | o/ | 11:42 |
| ChrisFR06 | Oh, are u sure ? | 11:43 |
| ikonia | ChrisFR06: yes, they are different desktops with different display libraries | 11:43 |
| kolo | running ubuntu 12.04 I'm not able to get libstdc++ dure to held broken package, here is the output of an apt-get install : http://0bin.net/paste/y5d0KFYcFqeLDduI#bEzbo9dnJFKReVBH+o2Raskfe7kQDbNr4mb3syUuowU= | 11:43 |
| ChrisFR06 | Yes, of course :s | 11:43 |
| kolo | I tried apt-get clean, update and upgrade (in this order) | 11:43 |
| ikonia | kolo: you have a PPA/3rd party repo enabled that's causing a conflict | 11:44 |
| ChrisFR06 | ikonia: But look, on this website http://askubuntu.com/questions/38830/does-unity-have-any-widgets a guy has KDE widgets on ubuntu ! | 11:45 |
| ChrisFR06 | ""You can use KDE Plasma Widget (Plasmoids) This is screenshot my desktop using Plasmoids "" | 11:45 |
| ikonia | ChrisFR06: yes, he will have installed all the KDE libraries for that | 11:46 |
| ikonia | ChrisFR06: looks at what he's installed "plasma-desktop" that brings in all the KDE stuff | 11:46 |
| ChrisFR06 | Ok, i'll try this | 11:46 |
| ChrisFR06 | But do you think it could "destroy" my desktop ? | 11:46 |
| ChrisFR06 | like when you mess around too much with compiz ? | 11:46 |
| Kumara_Ilija2 | Hello everyone, Kumara_Ilijahere and i'm here and ready to DDoS. | 11:47 |
| OerHeks | ChrisFR06, that was 2011, with gnome2, i wonder what the effect will be in 13,04 with gnome3 | 11:47 |
| ChrisFR06 | OerHeks: what was in 2011 ? | 11:47 |
| OerHeks | ChrisFR06, see the date on your post | 11:47 |
| ChrisFR06 | Yes but ubuntu has unity on the screenshot of the guy | 11:48 |
| ChrisFR06 | so it could work on 13 | 11:48 |
| ikonia | what do you mean "could work" | 11:48 |
| ChrisFR06 | The KDE Plasma widgets could work properly on ubuntu 13 | 11:48 |
| ikonia | ChrisFR06: they will do, if you install all the KDE stuff | 11:49 |
| LjL | i need some quick help with cron. i have an IRC bot ("phenny") that, since i'm leaving for holidays, i want to make sure doesn't die, so i wanted to put it into crontab and restart it daily. however, it behaves very strangely when started from crontab: it can't seem to find a few executables (that are normally in PATH) it uses. i've tried variations such as starting it with "./phenny", "bash ./phenny", "~/.profile ; ./phenny", but they didn't seem to help | 11:49 |
| ChrisFR06 | Yes, ok, i'll try to ! I just hope it wont screw up my desktop like when you mess with compiz too much but thank for your anwsers :) | 11:50 |
| Ben64 | LjL: use a script | 11:50 |
| ikonia | LjL: are you starting it direct from cron, or using cron to call a script | 11:50 |
| ChrisFR06 | Bye everyone and thanks for your help :D | 11:50 |
| ChrisFR06 | o/ | 11:50 |
| Kumara_Ilija2 | Hello everyone, Kumara_Ilijahere and i'm here and ready to DDoS. | 11:52 |
| LjL | Ben64: i've tried that too, i made a "start.sh" with #!/bin/bash at the start | 11:52 |
| LjL | ikonia: i've tried both methods | 11:52 |
| ikonia | LjL: can we have a look at the script | 11:52 |
| LjL | by the way, this is my user's crontab, not /etc/crontab | 11:52 |
| jrib | LjL: did you try just setting PATH in your crontab (or your script) to what it normally is outside of cron? | 11:53 |
| kolo | ok so is there anything more than removing it from sources.list and updating apt to do ? | 11:53 |
| iceroot_ | LjL: you should have a look at "trap" instead of using cron for that | 11:53 |
| LjL | ikonia: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5943516/ | 11:53 |
| iceroot_ | LjL: trap is designed to react when a script/comman dies/ends | 11:53 |
| LjL | jrib: no, that seemed too obvious :P | 11:53 |
| jrib | LjL: I like the killall python | 11:53 |
| ikonia | LjL: try it with either a.) absolute paths b.) setting $PATH in the script | 11:54 |
| LjL | jrib: i tried using "pidof -x phenny" or such but they didn't work! | 11:54 |
| ikonia | LjL: does the date >>phenny.log work ok and just not the start | 11:54 |
| kolo | ikonia: after cleaning sources.list and updating apt, I still have the error, here is my sources.list : http://0bin.net/paste/kQETXTs0t-2toVJ4#emDxuMfFg3HQk2Ab2g5s/bONNT0TrZONZ4zizE1eUak= | 11:54 |
| LjL | ikonia: the date does get printed | 11:54 |
| LjL | i'll try with setting PATH | 11:55 |
| ikonia | kolo: what do you mean, cleaning the sources.list, what was in the sources.list that you had to clean ? | 11:55 |
| LjL | iceroot_: what package is that in? | 11:55 |
| Ben64 | LjL: i bet the problem is the ./phenny | 11:55 |
| ikonia | LjL: ok, so ~ is being recognised. | 11:55 |
| Ben64 | LjL: use full paths at every instance and try it again | 11:55 |
| iceroot_ | LjL: should be in bash | 11:55 |
| kolo | ikonia: unecessary ppa, third party repository | 11:56 |
| iceroot_ | LjL: http://linux.die.net/Bash-Beginners-Guide/sect_12_02.html | 11:56 |
| Ben64 | line 10 should read something like "/home/bob/phenny >> /home/bob/phenny.log" | 11:56 |
| LjL | iceroot_: oh, that "trap". i assumed it was something else | 11:56 |
| ikonia | kolo: I suspect that's caused the conflict | 11:56 |
| ikonia | kolo: (of course that would have to be checked) | 11:56 |
| Ben64 | but that still might not work, depending how phenny runs | 11:57 |
| LjL | Ben64: uhm but i need to be cd'd into the right directory, since the bot expects some things to be in its pwd | 11:57 |
| kolo | ikonia: what is confusing me is that it's a conflit with ubuntu package | 11:57 |
| ikonia | LjL: still cd in, but try using absoloute paths | 11:57 |
| ikonia | kolo: that is to be expected if the PPA's have caused a conflict | 11:57 |
| kolo | mmmmh ok, I have to find now the package that caused the conflict and remove it ? | 11:58 |
| ikonia | kolo: correct | 11:59 |
| Kumara_Ilija2 | Hello everyone, Kumara_Ilijahere and i'm here and ready to DDoS. | 11:59 |
| kolo | is there any tips, suggestion for easier package finding? | 12:01 |
| LjL | ikonia, jrib, Ben64: it seems to work now. i'm not sure whether the key change was the absolute path, or the inclusion of a PATH variable, but right now i just don't have the time to find out. thanks for the help | 12:02 |
| ikonia | LjL: we'll work it out on your return | 12:02 |
| jrib | LjL: enjoy your trip | 12:03 |
| LjL | thanks | 12:03 |
| kolo | grmbl I don't understand, I change my sources.list file, but apt-get update still fetch unwanted ppa | 12:05 |
| Ben64 | kolo: use the ubuntu software center, go to Edit, then Software Sources to change sources | 12:07 |
| kolo | will try | 12:07 |
| OerHeks | kolo, check the folder /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ for ppa entry's | 12:07 |
| ikonia | kolo: it's not fetching unwated PPA, it's trying to finish your install that is in conflict | 12:07 |
| OerHeks | and removing a ppa just by deleting the list does not solve, i would use ppa-purge to reverse | 12:08 |
| kolo | ikonia: even the update ? | 12:08 |
| ikonia | kolo: yes, because it's got packages in an incomplete state | 12:08 |
| kolo | ok | 12:08 |

| fishcooker | how to turn to server auronandace + MonkeyDust | 12:43 |
| auronandace | fishcooker: if you are using it as a desktop then we can't support you | 12:43 |
| fishcooker | thats the great option | 12:43 |
| ikonia | fishcooker: this sounds a little odd your building apps for a dead distribution, on hardware you don't even know the spec of | 12:43 |
| fishcooker | hmmm.. | 12:43 |
| usr13 | fishcooker: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade | 12:43 |
| fishcooker | i just continue this project ikonia | 12:43 |
| MonkeyDust | fishcooker or modify the app in such way, that it does not break | 12:44 |
| fishcooker | hmmm i just do the rule MonkeyDust, but your option to turn to server will be the greap option here | 12:45 |
| usr13 | fishcooker: See my pm. | 12:45 |
| auronandace | fishcooker: to turn it into a server you uninstall all the desktop packages (that can be tricky) | 12:46 |
| fishcooker | hmmm, just wonder why they don't turn to server at first | 12:46 |
| fishcooker | i just continue it here | 12:47 |

| ripplebit | I'm having trouble installing ubuntu on a usb. | 13:14 |
| ripplebit | What are the steps? | 13:14 |
| SuRfDaEmOn | ripplebit: what os are you in now? | 13:15 |
| ZIPY | ripplebit: what system r u using | 13:15 |
| ZIPY | ^^ | 13:15 |
| ripplebit | Ubuntu | 13:15 |
| anonee | btw is there anything similar to YUMI for linux systems? | 13:16 |
| ZIPY | then use the usb creater | 13:16 |
| ZIPY | anonee: deb files for ubuntu/debian | 13:16 |
| ripplebit | ZIPY: right which settings do I use? format type etc | 13:16 |
| ibqn | hey, is there any ppa repo which has gettext version >= 0.18.2 ? | 13:16 |
| Beetoo | anyone having problem with sky2 module | 13:16 |
| ZIPY | ripplebit: simply delete the usb with usb diskcreator then choose the iso | 13:17 |
| anonee | ZIPY u mean on YUMI site? | 13:17 |
| Beetoo | sky2 module not working for marvell yukon ethernet | 13:17 |
| Beetoo | hel[ | 13:17 |
| Beetoo | help* | 13:17 |
| ZIPY | anonee: i thought u mean the .yum files | 13:17 |
| ZIPY | ano anoneeu mean the usb disk creator too? | 13:18 |
| ZIPY | for multiboot | 13:18 |
| anonee | ZIPY yep, multiboot | 13:18 |
| ripplebit | ZIPY: Do I need to create a partition, and also which command do I run to put the iso onto the usb? is it sudo dd if=iso.iso /dev/sdb? | 13:18 |
| ZIPY | ripplebit: thats how u do on terminal | 13:19 |
| ZIPY | ripplebit: if u use the gui of disk creator u dont need that | 13:19 |
| ripplebit | ZIPY: Ah ok | 13:19 |
| ZIPY | dd works too but if u put in the wroing of= u will delete everything on it | 13:19 |
| ZIPY | dd if=/input path of=/pathtourusb (/dev/sdX) x= ur usbdrive | 13:20 |
| ZIPY | but be carefull with dd since it will overwrite even ur system drive if u put the wrong partition drive in of= | 13:20 |
| ripplebit | ZIPY: the 'make startup disk' button can't be selected for some reason on the disk creator | 13:21 |
| ZIPY | ripplebit: better use the usb-creator, its saver | 13:21 |
| ZIPY | did u choose ur iso and ur usb drive? | 13:22 |
| ripplebit | yeah | 13:22 |
| anonee | ZIPY you mean safer? | 13:22 |
| ZIPY | anonee: i was talking to ripplebit | 13:22 |
| ZIPY | ripplebit: did u choose delte ur usb? | 13:22 |
| ripplebit | ZIPY: Yeah I erased the disk | 13:23 |
| ZIPY | strange, u choose an ubuntu image? | 13:23 |
| ZIPY | it only works with isos | 13:23 |
| ripplebit | Ubuntu 12.04 LTS | 13:23 |
| ripplebit | downloaded from the ubuntu website | 13:23 |
| ZIPY | k then do it from terminal | 13:23 |
| ripplebit | ZIPY: right using dd? | 13:24 |
| ZIPY | ripplebit: yes but first look for the right drive (sudo fdisk -l) | 13:24 |
| ZIPY | ripplebit: look for ur usb drive /dev/sdX | 13:24 |
| dicaxa | I'm not saying you're a slut, but if your twat had a password, it would be 'password'. | 13:24 |
| ripplebit | ZIPY: On disk creator it says there's not enough free space. Do I need to redo the partiition using a different format? | 13:25 |
| dicaxa | You smell | 13:25 |
| ZIPY | sudo dd if=/pathtourubuntu.iso of=/dev/sdX bs=4M && sync <-- replace sdX with ur usbdrive | 13:25 |
| ZIPY | ripplebit: can u paste the output of sudo fdisk -l to http://paste.ubuntu.com/ | 13:26 |
| anonee | OK, so now I still have the following problems: | 13:26 |
| ripplebit | ZIPY: sure | 13:26 |
| anonee | 1. my phone PAN network is showing multiple times on the network list, how do I delete the duplicates? | 13:26 |
| anonee | 2. many programs are showing multiple times on the list when I select open with another application in nautilus.. suggestions? | 13:26 |
| dicaxa | I like to sit back and relax and imagine you sucking my dick. | 13:26 |
| anonee | anonee: 3. I can't mount ext4 drive, I've read here and there but not yet found the solution? | 13:26 |

| nevyn | islandmonkey: so the errors in your log are that jack can't start streaming audio to the soundcard | 14:57 |
| nevyn | this either means. you don't have permission to the soundcard | 14:57 |
| nevyn | or the soundcard has no audio endpoints | 14:57 |

| flashingpumpkin | :( | 15:12 |
| jrib | flashingpumpkin: I don't know if you can do it at the window manager level but do you want to poke a bit? I have an idea. | 15:16 |
| MonkeyDust | flashingpumpkin unity-tweak-tool lets you modify a lot of features | 15:16 |

| flashingpumpkin | MonkeyDust, yeah, had already a look at unity-tweak-tool and didn't find anything :( | 15:18 |
| islandmonkey | nevyn: Oh - I did that immediately after the reboot. It's on channel 0 now | 15:18 |
| nevyn | islandmonkey: card 0 | 15:19 |
| Analist | Brasil ?? | 15:19 |
| flashingpumpkin | jrib, happy to hear your idea | 15:19 |
| nevyn | islandmonkey: but I'm curious as to how many cards there are (it's common in modern machines to have 2 one for analog audio and one for hdmi) | 15:19 |
| jrib | flashingpumpkin: interesting. I don't really see a way to do that without a massive hack unless the wm supports it. But we can probably get the windows to always open in your other monitor instead of the laptop. What's the output of "xrandr" and what's the output of "echo $DISPLAY"? | 15:19 |
| islandmonkey | nevyn: Yes - there is one for hdmi as far as I'm aware | 15:20 |
| OerHeks | ghking, we do not provide phonenumbers so you can vps on that bill | 15:20 |
| islandmonkey | But that doesn't show up /asound/cards | 15:20 |
| nevyn | islandmonkey: so you have 2 cards listed before plugging in the usb-midi? | 15:20 |
| flashingpumpkin | jrib, I've already tried xrandr --output VGA2 --primary if that's what you're hinting at :) | 15:20 |
| islandmonkey | nevyn: Yep | 15:21 |

| williamtdr | rompt? | 15:22 |
| jrib | flashingpumpkin: alright, run some tests: try "DISPLAY=:0.0 gedit" and then try "DISPLAY=:0.1 gedit" | 15:22 |
| islandmonkey | nevyn: Nope, never touched it | 15:22 |
| nevyn | bleh alsa-base.conf even | 15:22 |
| jrib | flashingpumpkin: erm, make sure you close gedit after the first since it will probably just open a tab the second time | 15:22 |
| flashingpumpkin | jrib, got it | 15:23 |
| jrib | flashingpumpkin: or for the extra paranoid, try xclock instead of gedit | 15:23 |
| flashingpumpkin | jrib, 0.1 doesn't exist :) | 15:23 |
| islandmonkey | nevyn: Nope, never touched that either | 15:23 |
| nevyn | islandmonkey: in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf is there a line: | 15:23 |
| nevyn | options snd-usb-audio index=-2 | 15:23 |
| flashingpumpkin | neither does 1.0 | 15:23 |
| jrib | flashingpumpkin: ok so your setup is basically one large screen stretched over two monitors? | 15:24 |
| nevyn | islandmonkey: that options line should prevent usb-audio (the driver for the usb-midi adapter) from ever claiming the card 0 slot | 15:24 |
| flashingpumpkin | jrib, that's how I would interpret it yeah | 15:24 |

| islandmonkey | nevyn: Not there (I wonder if some buggy update this week removed it) | 15:26 |
| daniel11 | anyone? | 15:26 |
| jrib | flashingpumpkin: yeah. You could either swap the order of your screens (which presumably is undesirable because of their physical locations) or pass explicit -geometry of +1920+0 (or similar). These both suck. Is unity still just a compiz plugin? | 15:26 |
| nevyn | daniel11: there is no back there's just fix | 15:27 |
| daniel11 | nevyn: yes, yes, thats what I mean | 15:27 |
| daniel11 | what is the fix? | 15:27 |

| nevyn | link it to the right place. | 15:27 |
| islandmonkey | nevyn: Oh, wait, it is there | 15:27 |
| daniel11 | what is the right place? I assume that every single person running 32bit in this forum has that file on their own systems. where it supposed to link to? | 15:28 |
| jrib | flashingpumpkin: if you install ccsm and check out CompizConfig>Window management>Window Placement > Multi Output Mode (this is from an old askubuntu thread), you may be able to do something. Poke around ccsm if you haven't yet | 15:28 |
| nevyn | nfi havn't run 32bit for years | 15:28 |
| daniel11 | I'm guessing its not hard to figure out where the 32bit is supposed to link to if you know where the 64 bit equivilent does.. | 15:28 |
| nevyn | daniel11: look in /lib/i386-linux-gnu at all the libudev * | 15:28 |

| spikespiegel | jitse, idk how to chmod (ex) /media/Volume 3/ | 16:12 |
| jitse | spikespiegel, use quotes around the path | 16:13 |
| spikespiegel | jitse, thanks | 16:14 |
| _Y_o_ | <compdoc> SMART support is: Available - device has SMART capability. | 16:14 |
| _Y_o_ | SMART support is: Enabled | 16:14 |
| jitse | spikespiegel, chmod 755 "/media/Volume 3" | 16:14 |
| _Y_o_ | compdoc, Device is: Not in smartctl database [for details use: -P showall] could be wrong? | 16:15 |
| compdoc | _Y_o_, open disk utility, and open the SMART for the drive. See what it says about the drive's health, and look at Reallocated Sectors. Or use smartctl -a /dev/sda (or whatever the drive) | 16:15 |
| _Y_o_ | smartctl -a /dev/sda | 16:16 |
| compdoc | maybe need to: sudo smartctl -a /dev/sda | 16:17 |
| _Y_o_ | yeah ...too fast | 16:17 |
| spikespiegel | jitse, yeah im not really sure whats going on, when i tried to do /home with a video it worked, now doing the partition it doesnt want to add the files | 16:17 |

| MonkeyDust | A1Recon there's System Settings > Privacy if that's what you mean | 16:20 |
| jitse | spikespiegel, Right. You should take a look at "Plex Media Scanner.log" in /var/lib/plexmediaserver/Library/Application Support/Plex Media Server/Logs | 16:20 |
| A1Recon | MonkeyDust: i just don't need to see one specific folder... | 16:21 |
| spikespiegel | jitse, still saying permission denied, i even tried to chmod 755 the exact folder on the partition | 16:23 |
| spikespiegel | jitse, according to the logs | 16:23 |
| _Y_o_ | compdoc, nothing special with smart data. Everything is good. | 16:24 |
| jitse | spikespiegel, did you use chmod recursively (with the -R option)? | 16:25 |
| spikespiegel | jitse, i did not | 16:25 |
| jitse | spikespiegel, ok, so you set the permissions on /media/Volume 3/ but not on the files and dirs *in* /media/Volume 3 | 16:26 |
| natsukao | hi | 16:26 |
| spikespiegel | jitse, makes sense, do you run chmod 755 -R or chmod -R 755 | 16:27 |
| jitse | spikespiegel, chmod -R 755 | 16:27 |
| natsukao | i would like to know why was removed xmms and why was replaced with xmms2 | 16:27 |
| natsukao | programs such as Streamtuner can't works with xmms2 | 16:28 |
| whoever | hi all, is there a better terminal irc client then irrsi | 16:28 |
| _Y_o_ | ok my problem is too much specific. Grep is not the only one. so i'm going to resinstall ubuntu OS. | 16:28 |
| _Y_o_ | thanks all | 16:28 |
| codephobic | hi | 16:29 |
| natsukao | i inform you that i toke contact with Canonical, and specially wsith Mr. Mark Shuttleworth, to have a reply | 16:29 |
| spikespiegel | jitse, hmm it is still having the same permission denied error in plex | 16:29 |
| codephobic | just had a very weird problem with my ubuntu 13.04. | 16:29 |
| ikonia | natsukao: grow up | 16:30 |
| codephobic | For months it's been working fine but today, just after a reboot, the sound went. | 16:30 |
| ikonia | bandroidx: talking to Mark Shuttleworth about why a single package has been replaced is childish | 16:30 |
| codephobic | No sound, no sound card, nothing. | 16:30 |
| codephobic | I tried checking alsamixer ... nothing. | 16:30 |
| bandroidx | huh? | 16:30 |
| ikonia | bandroidx: oops sorry | 16:30 |
| bandroidx | ah | 16:30 |
| bandroidx | np | 16:30 |
| ikonia | bandroidx: that was for natsukao | 16:30 |
| codephobic | I rebooted into Windows, works fine, but ubuntu doesn't even seem to see an audio chip | 16:30 |
| natsukao | i asked why was replace xmms with xmms2 | 16:31 |
| ikonia | bandroidx: my fault, apologies | 16:31 |
| bandroidx | no apology needed :) | 16:31 |
| ikonia | natsukao xmms is dead, | 16:31 |
| spikespiegel | natsukao, bet shuttleworth will bend over back wordwords for you | 16:31 |
| ikonia | natsukao: that's why | 16:31 |
| codephobic | my motherboard is an Asus M5A78L-M USB 3 | 16:31 |
| Myrtti | natsukao: probably because Debian dropped it | 16:31 |
| natsukao | and you offended me, without giving a reply to my request | 16:31 |
| Farang8 | i first time here, write from Opera. Please tell me, its free? | 16:31 |
| Myrtti | or I could be wrong too | 16:31 |
| ikonia | Myrtti they dropped it because it's prett dead | 16:31 |
| jitse | spikespiegel, weird. Try restarting plex | 16:32 |
| natsukao | this was decided from Ubuntu, it was not decided from Debian | 16:32 |
| ikonia | natsukao it's not in debian | 16:32 |
| Myrtti | natsukao: actually, it's not in debian, and debian is upstream of ubuntu | 16:32 |
| spikespiegel | jitse, going to try a reboot | 16:32 |
| natsukao | programs Free Software such as Streamtuner works with xmms | 16:32 |
| === BadLarry is now known as BadLarry_ | ||
| ikonia | natsukao that doesn't change anything | 16:33 |
| natsukao | if needed i'll go to write to Debian | 16:33 |
| jitse | spikespiegel, sure | 16:33 |
| ikonia | natsukao why don't you stop being silly and if you need it that bad ask for help getting it | 16:33 |
| natsukao | i'll go to search responsable | 16:33 |
| ikonia | natsukao: as to be honest, your moaning and complaining and silly threats to write to Mark Shuttleworth are not gaining you any good will / help | 16:33 |
| ikonia | natsukao: if you do state what you want to do with can try to help you find a solution | 16:34 |

| iamnotarobot | Have you tried running the installer to find out? | 16:43 |
| kunaguvarun | iamnotarobot, Not yet. Just looked at screenshots. | 16:45 |
| islandmonkey | kunaguvarun: Are you installing it alongside another OS? | 16:46 |
| kunaguvarun | Yes, with Win7 | 16:46 |
| kunaguvarun | I've got some 40GB of unallocated space | 16:46 |
| iamnotarobot | You can open the 'manual' option and configure partitions exactly as you want them. | 16:46 |
| islandmonkey | kunaguvarun: Oh, well when the installer asks you where and how to install Ubuntu - there should be an option to "Install Ubuntu alongside Windows 7" | 16:47 |
| iamnotarobot | With 13.04 you can install 'alongside' | 16:47 |
| kunaguvarun | islandmonkey: Yes I saw that option in installer guide. I thought It would be an option to install Ubuntu inside same Windows partition | 16:48 |
| islandmonkey | kunaguvarun: No, that's a program called Wubi | 16:49 |
| kunaguvarun | islandmonkey:Oh, I don't want to install through Wubi. | 16:49 |
| islandmonkey | The option I've told you will install Ubuntu in a separate partition. | 16:49 |
| kunaguvarun | If there is no option to chose install to "Free space", I'll go with traditional installation method, by creating 3 partitions out of free space | 16:50 |
| iamnotarobot | I don't think wubi is supported any more | 16:50 |

| === _BJFreeman is now known as BJfreeman | ||
| flyin4x4 | Yes u will need to do that | 17:05 |
| nathanesau1 | but it does not work for computers with UEFI boot or pre-installed windows 8 | 17:05 |
| nathanesau1 | which is WHY it DOES NOT work for me | 17:05 |
| nathanesau1 | i was wondering if there was another way | 17:05 |
| imthenachoman | hey guys, i have tried googling but no luck. anyway to get ubuntu to work with mac/apple keyboard so things like apple+a work right? | 17:06 |

| schnitzl | hi. i need some help to get some files via puty to a ssh box. | 17:12 |
| schnitzl | can someone guide me through? | 17:12 |
| Muuuh_ | hmmm... why would I choose the mongodb-10gen package over the mongodb package from ubuntu ? | 17:13 |
| SuRfDaEmOn | schnitzl: you probably want to set the ssh box as the default connection in putty and then run psftp | 17:13 |
| jitse | spikespiegel, very strange. It might help to take your question to the Plex forum | 17:13 |
| schnitzl | SuRfDaEmOn, default connection? why that. | 17:14 |
| schnitzl | and yes. psftp. thats it. | 17:14 |
| schnitzl | how to get that running? | 17:14 |
| SuRfDaEmOn | schnitzl: if i remember correctly, psftp didn't let me choose which server to connect to, it just went for my default, I could be wrong. | 17:14 |
| schnitzl | ah ok. good to know. | 17:15 |
| schnitzl | how to start psftp? | 17:15 |
| SuRfDaEmOn | schnitzl: get psftp from the putty site and run it | 17:15 |
| schnitzl | ima try with pscp, wich is another option | 17:15 |
| schnitzl | should be the same | 17:15 |
| SuRfDaEmOn | schnitzl: might need to use cmd | 17:15 |
| schnitzl | yea. cmd i guess | 17:15 |

| schnitzl | is there a possibility to download the files directly | 17:23 |
| holstein | schnitzl: you think you cant login as root? try it | 17:23 |
| schnitzl | i cant | 17:23 |
| holstein | schnitzl: then, you wont be able to start services | 17:23 |
| schnitzl | i can login as schnitzel | 17:23 |
| holstein | schnitzl: you would contact the administrator of the machine for help | 17:24 |
| schnitzl | and than change to root | 17:24 |
| schnitzl | sudo bash | 17:24 |
| schnitzl | but i cant login directly as root. | 17:24 |
| holstein | schnitzl: sudo -i | 17:24 |
| holstein | !root | 17:24 |
| ubottu | Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 17:24 |
| schnitzl | nah. thats not it ;) | 17:24 |
| holstein | schnitzl: it actually is.. login as a user with sudo privs and run "sudo -i" | 17:25 |
| damian_ | how do i use synaptic | 17:25 |
| schnitzl | its no ubuntu box i think :( | 17:25 |
| holstein | damian_: you can lanuch it from the menu | 17:25 |
| holstein | schnitzl: you are connecting to a non-ubuntu box from putty? | 17:25 |

| usr13 | schnitzl: You don't know what operating system it is? | 17:25 |

| schnitzl | puty, first choice. | 17:26 |

| usr13 | sudo nmap -O2 -sV --version_light -p0-65535 192.168.xxx.x #Show lots of info about PC | 17:27 |
| schnitzl | but with psftp i cant login as root. neither sudi -i nor sudo bash are working. | 17:27 |
| schnitzl | no nmap. | 17:27 |
| damian_ | why does life on linux have to be so complicated :( | 17:27 |

| holstein | schnitzl: are you connecting to ubuntu from putty? | 17:27 |
| schnitzl | thy didnt i think about that. | 17:27 |
| schnitzl | i think its no ubuntu box. not sure which os. | 17:28 |
| schnitzl | :D | 17:28 |
| holstein | Casey: i mean, a file manager from a live CD is a GUI | 17:28 |
| holstein | schnitzl: then, seek support in the channel that maintains the operating system you are using.. thanks | 17:28 |

| Casey | Holstein let me correct my post sorry, Is there a way to migrate a current 12.04 server install to a raid 1 using a GUI. | 17:29 |
| holstein | whoever: i use escape arrow.. press escape, release it.. hit the arror key.. using terminator now instead of gnome-terminal | 17:29 |
| schnitzl | holstein...does it matter? its a basic ssh problem. not os related i thought. and since i am a little experienced with ubuntu, which is my linux system of choice, i thought i may ask here. | 17:29 |
| holstein | Casey: a file manager *is* a GUI | 17:29 |
| schnitzl | i have pretty nice experience in the past with you guys :D | 17:29 |
| holstein | schnitzl: yes.. it matters.. as this is the support channel for ubuntu, and we, as volunteers, cant support other OS's, since we are likely not aware of the details of other OS's | 17:30 |
| usr13 | schnitzl: If you are a linux user, why did you say you are using putty? | 17:30 |
| holstein | schnitzl: this has nothing to do with "nice".. i assure you, you are *welcome* and encouraged to use ubuntu.. but if you are not using ubuntu, you are in the incorrect channel | 17:30 |

The client are both well-connect and can ping the server. this is the openvpn.conf in the server: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5944539/ and the /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward is set to 1. | 17:31 |
| usr13 | schnitzl: And what exactly is your question? | 17:31 |
| damian_ | why do simple everyday task lke downloading and installing a program half to be researched just to find out how to install it | 17:31 |
| schnitzl | if it makes you happy i can switch to a ubuntu VM and start some console....would have the same effect :( | 17:31 |
| holstein | schnitzl: you can rrn the command usr13 gave you.. cat /etc/issue | 17:31 |
| schnitzl | you already helped me! filezilla was a nice idea :D | 17:31 |
| usr13 | schnitzl: And what exactly is your question? (And does it have *anything* to do with Ubuntu?) | 17:31 |
| usr13 | schnitzl: Ok, there you go. | 17:32 |
| schnitzl | ;) | 17:32 |
| holstein | damian_: what are you trying to do? with most OS's, you will need to learn things when coming to it | 17:32 |
| holstein | damian_: synaptic is a GUI package manager.. you might want to try the software center | 17:32 |
| mapreri | and (ridiculous!) both the client can ping another client (my android phone) | 17:32 |
| damian_ | as of right now all im trying to do is install minecraft and i think i did java right | 17:33 |
| holstein | damian_: confirm that java is installed | 17:33 |
| holstein | !java | damian_ | 17:33 |
| ubottu | damian_: To just use java you need a "Java Runtime Environment" (JRE) and/or a browser plugin. If that is not sufficient you will need a "Java Development Kit" (JDK) aka "Software Development Kit" (SDK). Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java about how to install one of three current implementations. | 17:33 |
| usr13 | schnitzl: But not sure why you'd use filezilla if you have ssh access. But if you are going at it from a MS Windows platform, well, I dono, filezilla is probably good. (Not sure how relevant the conversation is but....) | 17:33 |

| Candroth | Last try: I'm getting a looping error on starting up my netbook and I'm trying to get into recovery mode. What I see on the wiki page is different from what my computer does (namely I don't see a recovery mode option). Where do I go from here? | 18:58 |

| saiarcot895 | Candroth: do you get a menu (typically purple background) to load Ubuntu? | 18:59 |
| kreso | hello? | 18:59 |
| Candroth | The purple background loads, I can move the cursor for a second, the Ubuntu logo pops up, and it starts looping the 'cannot write bytes: broken pipe' error | 18:59 |
| Shloop | wow this place used to be a lot more helpful | 18:59 |
| whoever | kresoa hello | 18:59 |
| Shloop | what happened lol | 18:59 |
| islandmonkey | kreso: Hey there | 19:00 |
| kreso | oy, people. just got my ubuntu, still finding my ways around it | 19:00 |
| saiarcot895 | Shloop: I can't find the auto-clear you're talking about | 19:00 |
| kreso | question | 19:00 |
| ikonia | kreso: try being polite | 19:01 |
| ikonia | kreso: rather than "oy people" | 19:01 |
| meta4 | anyone else have a broken system after recent upgrade on 12.4LTS? | 19:01 |
| ikonia | meta4: forgot other peoples problem, state your problem | 19:01 |
| Candroth | I've had no luck holding Shift (as the wiki suggests), or ctrl-alt-f1 as other places have suggested; if I hit ESC I get into a setup menu but I still don't see a recovery mode option anywhere. | 19:01 |
| kreso | i'm sorry, didn't mean to be disrespectful | 19:02 |
| saiarcot895 | Candroth: does it make a difference if you hold the right Shift button? | 19:02 |
| meta4 | working 12.4 system last night; auto-update runs; now networking is broken | 19:02 |
| Candroth | I did think of that. I tried left Shift, right Shift, both Shift -- nothing. | 19:02 |
| ikonia | meta4: can you expand more and clearer than "networking is broken" | 19:02 |
| Candroth | ESC is the only key that seems to do anything, and that puts me into a Setup menu that doesn't look like the GIS results for 'gnu grub menu' | 19:03 |
| meta4 | it trys to do a DHCP auto-negotiate and fails | 19:03 |
| ikonia | meta4: ok, so is this wired or wireless ? | 19:03 |
| islandmonkey | kreso: Anyway, what's your question? | 19:03 |
| islandmonkey | Can anyone please explain why JACK is refusing to load? http://pastebin.com/qsaqVKL7 | 19:04 |
| meta4 | rebooting with earlier kernel version yeilds same issue | 19:04 |
| kreso | my laptop overheated and crashed while updating | 19:04 |
| Candroth | Being as linux-noobish as I am, am I better off trying to create a boot-USB through my Windows box and loading that instead to try fixing it? | 19:04 |
| meta4 | sorry, wireed | 19:04 |
| ikonia | islandmonkey: jack server is missing, not running, hence why the socket file is missing | 19:04 |
| kreso | after cooling it, tried to turn it back on. worked, until it crashed again. | 19:04 |
| Shloop | saiarcot895 http://i.imgur.com/qF9LkH9.png | 19:04 |
| meta4 | the NIC is fine; works in XP and netbsd | 19:05 |
| Candroth | (This may have started because of a system update I started and then aborted. I'm not sure, like I said, supernoob.) | 19:05 |
| kreso | it usually overheats and all, but never this much | 19:05 |
| ikonia | meta4: what is the interface name ? | 19:05 |
| meta4 | eth0 | 19:05 |
| kreso | how much damage has been done? (if any) | 19:05 |
| ikonia | meta4: so what happens if you do "sudo dhclient eth0" ? | 19:05 |
| saiarcot895 | Candroth: are you able to boot into a Live CD/USB? | 19:05 |
| meta4 | dunno; haven't tried that; brb | 19:06 |
| Candroth | I haven't tried yet saiarcot895 because I don't have a Live boot option yet. That's what I"m wondering if I should create. | 19:06 |
| saiarcot895 | Shloop: I think that just unmounts whatever is there, because ISO files are mounted on a loop device | 19:07 |
| saiarcot895 | Shloop: that being said, it seems you were mounting something that is in a CD drive | 19:07 |
| stetho | Hi all. I'm trying to get to grips with PXE booting, apt mirror and kickstart - I've got the PXE booting working and if I set an existing machine to do its updates from my local apt-mirror that works as well. However, if I create a ks.cfg file with the line url --url http://192.168.1.7/ubuntu it fails. The installer says it can't find the mirror, the log says http://192.168.1.7/ubuntu//dists - 404; I think that double slas | 19:07 |
| stetho | my problem but I can't figure out where it's coming from. | 19:07 |
| Shloop | saiarcot895 hmm that's weird. I haven't loaded anything from a CD drive. The only thing I was trying to mount is a HDD | 19:08 |
| saiarcot895 | Candroth: my guess is that there's some missing package in Ubuntu or there's a hardware problem, but I'm not sure how to resolve it from a live CD | 19:08 |
| meta4 | lol - now the stupid thing is working; I'd done nothing but reboot the fucker 6+ times | 19:09 |
| ikonia | meta4: there is no need for that language | 19:09 |
| meta4 | whatever; bye | 19:09 |
| saiarcot895 | Shloop: actually it might not be on a CD drive; I'm just going based on the location "/cdrom/casper/filesystem.squash" | 19:10 |
| Candroth | I could understand that guess sairacot895; I tried doing a bunch of updates last night and it hung or errored out (I'm honestly not sure), maybe that fubared something? | 19:10 |
| phong_ | hi guys | 19:10 |
| Candroth | Eh, I'll try working on a Live/recovery USB and work my way from there. Trial and error, I guess -- if nothing else works, I'll back up the files I want to keep and reformat. This is my first Linux in ten years, I won't let it beat me | 19:15 |
| Candroth | I've been invited to dinner with some folks, so I'm off for now. | 19:15 |
| anildigital | Anyone know keyboard shortcut to open app launcher on xfce? | 19:15 |
| bali | hello friends, i have LTS 12.04 64-bit installed on a AMD 64-bit system with 4GB RAM. But my 'System Details' in settings is showing only '3.3 GB' of RAM. Why is 64bit OS not showing all 4GB of RAM? | 19:15 |
| HisaoNakai | anildigital - App launcher? Do you mean Run? Alt+F2 does that, in that case. | 19:17 |
| ikonia | bali: can you show me the output of "uname -a" please. | 19:17 |
| bali | ikonia: sure, just a sec | 19:17 |
| OerHeks | bali most likely the onboard videocard is enabled | 19:18 |
| ikonia | OerHeks: 900mb would be an agressive onboard card | 19:18 |
| saiarcot895 | ikonia: 700 MB | 19:18 |
| ikonia | ? | 19:18 |
| bali | ikonia: output of 'uname -a' http://pastebin.com/BAyTEwTY | 19:18 |
| HisaoNakai | anildigital - If it doesn't, making keyboard shortcuts in XFCE is super easy, go to the menu -> settings -> settings manager -> keyboard -> application shortcuts tab. | 19:19 |
| saiarcot895 | ikonia: 4 GB-3.3 GB=0.7 GB=700 MB | 19:19 |
| ikonia | saiarcot895: oh 3.3, | 19:19 |
| ikonia | I thought he said 3.1 | 19:19 |
| ikonia | bali: ok, thats great can you now do the output of the command "free" please and put it in a pastebin please. | 19:19 |
| saiarcot895 | regardless, it would still be pretty heavy-duty | 19:19 |
| HisaoNakai | anildigital - समझे जी ? :) | 19:19 |
| bali | OerHeks: correct, this is a low end AMD APU, E1-2100 | 19:19 |
| samX | hello again all, i'm back with the question about my sd card reader rts5116 PCI Express card reader. so i screwed up my system again last night working on some video issues i was having and had to reinstall again. When i first install 12.04, the card reader works fine. but after updates, it's gone. anyone have any thoughts? | 19:19 |
| daftykins | samX: is it the kernel doing it, or a package? | 19:20 |
| samX | i tried removing the old kernel files that weren't being used, but that did not resolve. | 19:20 |
| bali | ikonia: output of 'free' : http://pastebin.com/3J7NqyFs | 19:20 |
| samX | so i don't "think" it's kernel related, but i don't know. | 19:21 |
| anildigital | HisaoNakai: hindi? | 19:21 |
| daftykins | samX: have you tried booting an older kernel? | 19:21 |
| HisaoNakai | anildigital - yeah :) | 19:21 |
| lotia | hello all. when attempting to set up a source package for a ppa is there a way to satisfy build dependencies using other ppa packages? | 19:21 |
| samX | I have not | 19:21 |
| samX | i'm just afraid of screwing up my system again, lol. | 19:21 |
| saiarcot895 | lotia: more of a question for #launchpad, but yes | 19:21 |
| ikonia | bali: ok, so that's clearly showing 3.4GB of ram, so either something like your video card is using 600mb of ram (check the bios - this is very unlikely though) or you've actually got less ram than you think | 19:21 |
| samX | i found a temp fix once while google'ing the issue, but can't seem to find that fix | 19:21 |
| lotia | saiarcot895: thanks | 19:22 |
| samX | i've tried manual install of drivers | 19:22 |
| samX | i'm thinking that maybe it's a linking issue. but i don't know at this point. | 19:23 |
| OerHeks | bali, this command tells more about CPU memory consumption > grep -i --color memory /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 19:23 |
| OerHeks | c/GPU | 19:24 |
| Ziber | If I do "du -s * | sort -rn", I want to make the file sizes more readable, in like GB or something. Can I use xargs for this somehow? | 19:24 |
| ikonia | Ziber: du -h | 19:24 |
| bali | OerHeks: 'grep -i --color memory /var/log/Xorg.0.log' shows no output... | 19:24 |
| Ziber | Yes, but then if I sort -rn, it disregards the G vs K, etc. | 19:24 |
| shadej | I want to run nmap as a root from a java program | 19:24 |
| shadej | to do that i have made the nmap program to be setuid program | 19:25 |
| samX | i guess, at this point, i'm just trying to figure out the cause. I don't know if i should post a bug report on the issue or not. | 19:25 |
| shadej | how can i run it now? | 19:25 |
| chverma79 | hello | 19:25 |
| daftykins | samX: just booting an older kernel as a one time thing won't do any damage. try it. | 19:25 |
| chverma79 | can anyone hear me | 19:25 |
| daftykins | samX: locate the offending update package that breaks things by updating slowly maybe, though it could likely just be the kernel change | 19:25 |
| saiarcot895 | chverma79: no, but we can see your messages | 19:26 |
| shadej | mudkip908: i have got a native library to seuid | 19:26 |

| chverma79 | and nice cool lxde mint 15 | 19:27 |
| HisaoNakai | saiarcot895 - There isn't and well, lots of English impaired people from India, so I figured I'd help. I'll stop if it's against rules :( | 19:27 |
| mudkip908 | shadej: to your native binary | 19:27 |
| HisaoNakai | (saiarcot895 not to the best of my knowledge) | 19:27 |
| samX | is there an easy way to do that if i've removed the old kernel files in an attempt to fix it thinking it was regarding upgrading the kernel? | 19:28 |
| mudkip908 | shadej: PM me a description of what your program is supposed to do | 19:28 |
| saiarcot895 | HisaoNakai: my bad; there's a channel for India, but not necessarily for Hindi | 19:28 |

| ikonia | Ziber: logrotate can do it | 19:29 |
| Ziber | Hm. Okay. | 19:30 |
| mudkip908 | HisaoNakai: it probably has a different name on ubuntu | 19:30 |
| bali | ikonia: i can understand the GPU memory hole in 32-bit OS, but is it possible in 64-bit? | 19:30 |
| samX | correct. my thought was maybe something with the old kernel was hanging on to the driver map causing the issue, so i tried removing all the old kernel files not being used and reinstalling the drivers. | 19:30 |
| ikonia | bali: it's not a hole | 19:30 |
| chverma79 | can anyone tell me whats all this logs | 19:30 |
| chverma79 | and what are people randomly discussing???? | 19:30 |
| OerHeks | Bali, any chance you have windows 8 32 bit installed next to ubuntu? with fastboot enabled? | 19:30 |
| ikonia | bali: if your onboard card is setup to use 600mb (that's wild if it is) then that's where your missing ram is | 19:30 |
| shadej | mudkip908: no because i need to use database | 19:30 |
| ikonia | chverma79: it's an ubuntu support channel - nothing random here | 19:31 |

| chverma79 | so how do i BlueEagle | 19:33 |
| ggabriel96 | is it possible to make a dualbook on a single virtual machine? | 19:33 |
| chverma79 | ggabriel96: hi | 19:33 |
| chverma79 | yes ggabriel96 | 19:33 |
| ggabriel96 | hi chverma79. in virtualbox? | 19:33 |
| chverma79 | yup | 19:33 |
| jitse | shadej, take a look at nmap4j.sourceforge.net | 19:33 |
| samX | thanks again for your help. :D | 19:33 |
| ikonia | ggabriel96: a virtual machine is the same as a physical machine | 19:33 |
| ikonia | ggabriel96: (in terms of capabilities) | 19:33 |
| shadej | jitse: for what? | 19:33 |
| ggabriel96 | I know, it's because I don't remember having the option to customize the partitions when installing a system on a virtual machine | 19:34 |
| HisaoNakai | chverma79 - General IRC tip, try to ask your question in one line. Because clarity ;) | 19:34 |
| ikonia | ggabriel96: you select that in the installer, it's nothing to do with it being a virtual machine | 19:34 |
| jitse | shadej, it's a library to call nmap from java programs | 19:34 |
| jitse | shadej, that's what you're trying to do, right? | 19:34 |
| shadej | jitse: yeah | 19:35 |
| ggabriel96 | hmmm | 19:35 |
| ggabriel96 | thanks ikonia | 19:35 |
| shadej | jitse: but will that still ask me for privillege to run nmap with options like -PR | 19:36 |

| FuzzyThor | is there a way i can upload a file from my server to a remote ftp web server | 19:37 |
| jitse | shadej, yes | 19:37 |
| ikonia | FuzzyThor: by ftp | 19:37 |
| ggabriel96 | see you guys | 19:37 |

| ggabriel96 | ty everyone | 19:37 |
| newbie34 | I want to match multiline text with grep | 19:37 |
| ikonia | FuzzyThor: ignore what chverma79 said, it's nothing to do with root | 19:37 |
| jitse | shadej, you'll need to run the parent application with sudo in order to get the root privileges. | 19:37 |
| newbie34 | Anyone familiar? | 19:37 |
| shadej | jitse: why i should i add additional overhead? | 19:37 |
| FuzzyThor | I own my root linux server but i use a remote webhost | 19:38 |
| ikonia | FuzzyThor: what's the actual problem ? | 19:38 |
| shadej | jitse: how about making the child application to be setuid | 19:38 |
| jitse | shadej, you can't do that with java | 19:38 |
| BlueEagle | newbie34: Do you want . to also match the newline character or are you looking for \n? | 19:38 |
| jitse | shadej, there's no way to do a setuid with java | 19:39 |
| FuzzyThor | Well i dont know how i can get files from my server thats in my house to a remote webserver through ftp | 19:39 |
| shadej | jitse: there is JNA | 19:39 |
| ikonia | FuzzyThor: use the "ftp" command | 19:39 |
| newbie34 | BlueEagle: dot-match-all would be a good solution, but I didn't find it in grep | 19:39 |
| BlueEagle | newbie34: If you go to http://regexpal.com/ you can enter sample data there and see how the regex picks up matchers. You may also find very good help in #regex. | 19:40 |

| ikonia | FuzzyThor: ftp hostname.of.ftp.server | 19:40 |
| Stdedos | BlueEagle: text is like 40k lines, kinda big for web apps ... I will also need a replace later | 19:40 |
| BlueEagle | Stdedos: Well, you would not use the entire production data, only a segment for testing purpouses. Also, in which context is the text being parsed? | 19:41 |
| Stdedos | xml database, I need to swap path-to-files and delete some | 19:42 |

| BlueEagle | Stdedos: And please do not change nicks in the middle of a conversation. I ignore nick changes in order to keep the channels from scrolling out of control. | 19:42 |
| jrib | Stdedos: you can use perl regexp with grep and should be able to active dotall | 19:42 |

| Stdedos | BlueEagle: pcregrep that is? | 19:42 |

| Stdedos | yes that is correct, only one line to change, but if they must be deleted, the whole <> </> block must go aswell | 19:45 |
| Stdedos | jrib: No, as I am a complete firstcommer | 19:45 |
| BlueEagle | Stdedos: If you pastebin an example of the source blocks and expected result and go to #regex I am sure you will find some help there. | 19:46 |

| daftykins | shafox: olivia as in you installed Linux Mint in place of Ubuntu? | 19:48 |
| ikonia | FuzzyThor: "put" | 19:48 |
| ikonia | FuzzyThor: I'd suggest a quick google for "ftp commands" | 19:48 |
| shafox | daftykins: yes | 19:48 |
| OerHeks | shafox, "olivia" is a mint codename, mint is not supported here | 19:48 |
| daftykins | shafox: there's no support for non-Ubuntu here i'm afraid, even if it's 'related' | 19:48 |
| OerHeks | !mint > shafox | 19:48 |
| ubottu | shafox, please see my private message | 19:48 |

| john38 | Hello can somebody help me out with scalpel for a sec??? | 19:48 |
| jrib | john38: ask your actual question | 19:49 |
| chverma79 | how to make a usb modem work in linux? | 19:49 |
| daftykins | john38: ask the full question and you might get a response if someone knows | 19:49 |
| BlueEagle | !patience | john38 | 19:50 |
| ubottu | john38: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com/ or http://ubuntuforums.org/ or http://askubuntu.com/ | 19:50 |
| john38 | jrib, i installed scalpel ...and i edited the conf.txt to recover only the type of file i want when i go to recover in terminal it recovers almost the size of the whole harddrive | 19:50 |
| jrib | john38: I still don't see a question, but you should ask the channel | 19:50 |
| chverma79 | how to make a usb modem work in linux? | 19:51 |
| john38 | jrib, my harddrive is 504gb and the file i belive is only 16 or 17gb | 19:51 |
| chverma79 | and even configure proxy in linux | 19:51 |
| FuzzyThor | ikonia: thanks for the help i was able to upload the file | 19:52 |
| john38 | jrib, how do i recover the file i want without it taking up whole harddrive | 19:52 |
| mjburgess | hello, i have groupadd svradm, chgrp /etc/hosts to svradmin, chmod g+w /etc/hosts and usermod -a -G mjburgess svradm | 19:52 |
| Stdedos | BlueEagle: No luck so far from jrib | 19:52 |
| mjburgess | but if i vim /etc/hosts its still readonly | 19:52 |
| mjburgess | groups mjburgess shows svradm | 19:52 |
| === aaaaaaaaaaa is now known as aaaaaaaaaaaaa | ||
| jrib | john38: that is a proper question. But you should be sure to ask the channel and not me. I don't know about scalpel. When you reask (in a few minutes) be sure to ask your question on one line with the details you gave just now | 19:52 |
| chverma79 | and even configure proxy in linux for torrents | 19:52 |
| mjburgess | ll /etc/hosts shows root:svradm | 19:53 |
| jrib | Stdedos: xmlstarlet is the xml tool I know of that you can use from the command line, but it will take some reading/learning | 19:53 |
| ikonia | mjburgess: changing the permissions on /etc/hosts is a bad idea | 19:53 |
| ikonia | mjburgess: you also need to restart your shell to get the new group membership | 19:53 |
| john38 | jrib, usually people tell me what i;ve done so far to get a clearer picture | 19:53 |
| mjburgess | ah, shell restart | 19:54 |
| jrib | john38: sure, just do it on a single line | 19:54 |
| mjburgess | well if its root:root to begin with, it can have abitary permissions | 19:54 |
| ikonia | mjburgess: what ? | 19:54 |
| john38 | How do i recover a specific file in scalpel??? | 19:54 |
| mjburgess | if you need root priviliages to modify a file, then that file can be owned by anyone.. | 19:55 |
| ikonia | mjburgess: sorry, that's not good logic, but do what ever you want | 19:55 |
| mjburgess | well i've restarted my shell, and it's still readonly | 19:55 |
| ZIPY | john38: with photorec you can choose filetype to recover, never worked with scalpel tho | 19:55 |
| ikonia | mjburgess: ls -la /etc/hosts please | 19:56 |
| mjburgess | -rw-rw-r-- 1 root svradm 229 Aug 2 19:52 /etc/hosts | 19:56 |
| ikonia | mjburgess: id mjburgess | 19:56 |
| john38 | ZIPY, i know how to search for a specific file type i need to know how to search for specific name and size but thanks... | 19:56 |
| mjburgess | uid=1000(mjburgess) gid=1000(mjburgess) groups=1000(mjburgess),4(adm),24(cdrom),27(sudo),30(dip),46(plugdev),108(lpadmin),124(sambashare),1001(bumblebee),1002(svradm) | 19:56 |
| ikonia | mjburgess: how did oyu restart your shell ? | 19:56 |
| mjburgess | ctrl-d | 19:57 |
| mjburgess | ctrl-alt-t | 19:57 |
| ikonia | mjburgess: type "exit" to until it logs you out | 19:57 |
| ikonia | mjburgess: then log back in and try it | 19:57 |
| mjburgess | i ALT-F6'd and it works | 19:58 |
| mjburgess | must just need to logout | 19:58 |
| mjburgess | - thanks | 19:58 |
| Kyzz | I keep getting "NTFS signature not valid while trying to mount an external hdd | 19:58 |
| ikonia | Kyzz: you need to run chkdisk from a windows host on it | 19:58 |
| john38 | ZIPY, how do i install photorec | 19:59 |
| Kyzz | ikonia: What will that do? | 20:00 |
| ikonia | Kyzz: fix the disk | 20:00 |
| Janika_Dusty | Hello everyone, Janika_Dustyhere and i'm here and ready to DDoS. | 20:00 |
| Kyzz | ikonia: Even if nothing is wrong? I see ntfs parts in it? | 20:00 |
| ikonia | Kyzz: what ? | 20:00 |
| ZIPY | john38: apt-get install testdisk | 20:01 |
| Kyzz | If I view the disk in Ubuntu I see there are parts of it that are NTFS | 20:01 |
| john38 | ZIPY, ok | 20:01 |
| ZIPY | john38: to run -> sudo photorec | 20:01 |
| ikonia | Kyzz: ?? it's an ntfs disk, it should be ntfs. | 20:01 |
| minidino | How would I go about deciding if I should learn vim, vi, or emacs (or mabey even something else)? | 20:01 |
| ikonia | minidino: well, you'd sit down and think about if you want to learn that | 20:02 |
| ikonia | minidino: thats how you decide if you want to learn something | 20:02 |
| minidino | ikonia: I mean like how do they compare? | 20:02 |
| ikonia | minidino: then you open a browser, and search for each one, noting down the differences / pros cons | 20:02 |
| john38 | ZIPY, i have a 1000gb harddrive but i dual boot windows 7 and ubuntu i dont want to search entire drive just ubuntu partition | 20:03 |

| ZIPY | john38: i just tried, i selected the partition and then go to proceed | 20:05 |
| john38 | ZIPY, ik i did that | 20:05 |
| ZIPY | what happens when u select the partiton | 20:05 |
| ZIPY | jumps 1 higher? | 20:05 |
| john38 | ZIPY, do i choose linux or extended | 20:06 |
| ZIPY | ur linux partition is in the extended i guess so choose linux | 20:06 |
| jitse | shadej, indeed | 20:06 |
| === ubuntu is now known as alc | ||

| shadej | when we call the program from the command line we dont need to do anything | 20:08 |
| shadej | but when calling from a program we have to use setuid() why is that necessary? | 20:09 |

| BlueEagle | Stdedos: Well post a pastebin and I'll see if I can make heads or tails. | 20:12 |
| chverma79 | guys | 20:13 |
| chverma79 | any idea on how to set proxy and the port in linux for torrents | 20:13 |
| john38 | ZIPY, how do i tell to recover only zip files | 20:13 |
| Stdedos | BlueEagle: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5945049/ | 20:13 |
| BlueEagle | Stdedos: I assume that is what you have. What is it you want from it? | 20:14 |
| ZIPY | john38: after choosing the partition choose "file opt" press s to disable all and select .zip, then b to save | 20:15 |
| Stdedos | BlueEagle: I can write the regex needed to match what I want | 20:15 |
| Stdedos | I want all my subsequent matches to remove the whole block | 20:15 |
| alc | hi, i've tried to install ubuntu 13.04, but somewere between bot-repair and reboot, i've lost my windows partitions, and ubuntu's one got damage, could anyone help me recovering at least the windows8 backup ones? bot-repair log: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5944101/ | 20:16 |
| BlueEagle | Stdedos: That is not a good enough explination for me to be able to help you. | 20:16 |
| Taylr0x | Filezilla used to have, I think and please correct me if I am wrong, a sister program for hosting FTP servers. Can someone please remind me what it was? Or recommend one to me if this isn't the case please. | 20:16 |
| Stdedos | BlueEagle: Help me to elaborate. All I can think of is what I am matching, which is the path to file or the extension | 20:17 |
| chverma79 | alc reinstall the grub bootloader | 20:17 |
| BlueEagle | Stdedos: So if the value of Filepath occurs more than once then the entire <song> block should be removed? | 20:18 |
| john38 | ZIPY, do i press enter when choosing zip | 20:18 |
| pet2001 | Taylr0x: Filezilla server. It's Windows-only, as far as I know... | 20:18 |
| jitse | shadej, are you absolutely sure you need nmap -PR? | 20:18 |
| Stdedos | BlueEagle: If I will need that path removed for a reason, recursively every file belonging there must be removed - thus every entry of it | 20:19 |
| Taylr0x | pet2001, I thought that was going to be the case as I recall using it whilst on Windows. Bugger. | 20:19 |
| alc | chverma79: thanks. but i think it's a worst problem, the only recognized partition is ubuntu's one, i've got 4 hidden partitions acording to gparted, but don't know what else can make | 20:19 |
| shadej | jitse: if there is another solution to ping host that intensionally ignore ping requests | 20:20 |
| BlueEagle | Stdedos: So if you want to replace <Song FilePath="E:\Τα έγγραφά μου\Η μουσική μου\ÓÁÑÌÐÅË\ÐáñÜîåíï Óõíáßóèçìá\11-Σώπα.mp3" FileSize="3667825"> | 20:20 |

| OerHeks | shadej, why ? servers that ignore pings have a reason to do so, | 20:21 |
| chverma79 | alc it happens only when your linux distro doesnt recognize the windows partition | 20:21 |
| BlueEagle | Stdedos: So you want to replace FilePath="E:\Τα έγγραφά μου\Η μουσική μου\ with FilePath="D:\Something\sensible? | 20:21 |
| ZIPY | john38: first b to save | 20:21 |
| chverma79 | alc you need to manually modify the grub file by live booting | 20:21 |
| Stdedos | That's one aspect, changing the file path | 20:21 |
| shadej | OerHeks: I know but i want to hosts on my LAN | 20:22 |
| Stdedos | BlueEagle: The other aspect of my modification is to remove entries from a speciefic path | 20:22 |
| shadej | how can i do that with out using -PR option in nmap | 20:22 |
| chverma79 | alc orelse check fosswire site for a thread realted to it, i got mine solved there | 20:22 |
| alc | chverma79: performing another bot-repair? | 20:22 |
| chverma79 | ok | 20:22 |
| anonee | I activated bluetooth to browse files on my phone, selected the PAN profile, I did the selection 3 times instead of selecting my phone from the bluetooth menu and selecting (browse files), as a result, I have my phone name listed 3 times in the network list, on click, they will ask if I want to use my phone's internet. how can I remove the duplicates? | 20:22 |
| BlueEagle | Stdedos: The first you don't need regex for. The second you don't want to use regex for. | 20:22 |
| ZIPY | john38: then q to go back and then choose search | 20:22 |
| Stdedos | BlueEagle: Ok ... why and why? | 20:23 |
| alc | chverma79: it can't even recognize windows on bot, can it be grub? | 20:23 |
| chverma79 | alc yes | 20:24 |
| BlueEagle | Stdedos: Well if you know the exact text you are searching for and what to replace it with a regular search and replace is all you need. No regex required. As for manipulating *ML, regex is not the right tool for the job. | 20:24 |
| chverma79 | check for how to repair grub bootloader | 20:24 |
| mudkip908 | shadej: use arping | 20:25 |
| jitse | shadej, well, you could do a plain netcat to a (pseudo) random port on the host you need to check. Example: http://fpaste.org/29947/ | 20:25 |
| Stdedos | BlueEagle: I do know what I am searching for, but I got some parameters on the table, splitting folders and so forth | 20:25 |
| jitse | shadej, the error message is different, you see. Connection refused = up, No route to host = down | 20:26 |
| shadej | mudkip908: arp -n ? | 20:26 |
| Stdedos | BlueEagle: And again, deleting entries, still have some variables | 20:26 |
| jitse | shadej, exactly | 20:26 |
| BlueEagle | Stdedos: If you are not able to describe completely what you need then it would be hard for anyone to help you. Perhaps xmlint is the tool for you? | 20:26 |
| shadej | jitse: ok i will try that | 20:27 |
| BlueEagle | Stdedos: Maybe you even want a xml transform document? | 20:27 |
| jitse | shadej, but ARP only works on the local network, you'll need another trick to check hosts outside of your LAN | 20:27 |
| Stdedos | BlueEagle: Noooo! I feel this is getting way over than where I feel a solution might be! | 20:29 |
| shadej | jitse: ok, but i need to solve the setuid and java issue because i need to run nmap as a root for OS finger printing,port scanning,mac address discovery .. | 20:29 |
| Stdedos | BlueEagle: I just want a way to tell the replace engine, if you bump into this, <(search parameters)>, then delete it untill the first </Song> is found | 20:30 |
| john38 | ZIPY, you there | 20:30 |
| BlueEagle | Stdedos: Well, what you think the solution is, and what the solution actually is doesn't really have to match. I too once thought that regex was the key to all serach and replace needs, but it is not, and read http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/2009/11/parsing-html-the-cthulhu-way.html if you do not believe me. | 20:30 |
| john38 | ZIPY, how do imagebin a photo again so you can tell me which installation is the one i want | 20:30 |
| chverma79 | hi | 20:32 |
| alc | chverma79: any idea of the page title? I haven't found anything | 20:32 |
| alc | should it be this one? -> http://fosswire.com/post/2009/05/restoring-overwritten-grub/ | 20:33 |
| ZIPY | john38: didnt understand ur last question | 20:33 |
| john38 | ZIPY, well when i started recovery for zip it made over 2000 recoverys ....it wasnt fininished yet but i dont recall having deleted so many zip files | 20:34 |
| john38 | ZIPY, in the past | 20:34 |
| wilee-nilee | alc, I missed you initial description, are you trying to repair the grub bootloader? | 20:35 |
| ZIPY | hm did u choose whole disk or only free space? | 20:35 |
| john38 | ZIPY, i think free space | 20:35 |
| ZIPY | if u deleted the file accidently u should use free space | 20:35 |
| john38 | ZIPY, i did choose free space | 20:37 |
| Stdedos | BlueEagle: sudo apt-get install perl? :/ | 20:37 |
| john38 | ZIPY, and it had about 2hr remaining | 20:37 |
| jrib | Stdedos: you could have mastered xmlstarlet by now | 20:37 |
| HxD_NightFall | I love the massive amount of joinings and leabings | 20:37 |
| jitse | shadej, ok, as I said before, setuid is not an option. The easiest solution would be: use Runtime.getRuntime().exec(new String[]{"sudo", "nmap", "-PR", "host"}) and add an entry to the sudoers file on your machine | 20:37 |
| wilee-nilee | HxD_NightFall, My client allows that to be turned off, makes it a bit easier. | 20:38 |
| Stdedos | jrib: I headed over to CPAN, found this http://search.cpan.org/~grantm/XML-Simple-2.20/lib/XML/Simple.pm ,and I saw a Makefile.PL | 20:38 |
| jrib | Stdedos: pretty sure almost any language you pick will have an xml library. And I would be surprised if you don't have a perl xml library in the repositories | 20:39 |
| shadej | jitse: what will that sudoer do? | 20:39 |

| john38 | ZIPY, the filename is intermediate.zip | 20:52 |
| HisaoNakai | levo - There appear to be loads of them listed in synaptic. Try a few more out, try asking in ##video or somewhere, or try contacting support of the software which doesn't work. | 20:52 |
| john38 | ZIPY, sudo scalpel /dev/sda5 -o /home/recovered -i intermediate.zip | 20:53 |

| ggabriel96 | hey chverma79 ^^ | 20:56 |
| Dr_Willis | If cheese had a 'record for XXX time' it would be almost perfect for my needs. | 20:56 |
| ggabriel96 | can you help me? | 20:56 |
| john38 | ZIPY, couldnt open file ---no such file or directory | 20:56 |
| Dr_Willis | ggabriel96: well dont use the term 'logs out' when you mean X is crashing back to the login screen. ;) | 20:56 |
| ZIPY | john38: ok wait let me try | 20:57 |
| whoever | Dr_Willis: script a timer on the pid creation | 20:57 |
| Dr_Willis | ggabriel96: try making a new user. see if affects them also. | 20:57 |
| ggabriel96 | Dr_Willis: oh, didn't know it was that | 20:57 |
| Dr_Willis | whoever: yea. but the goal is to set it up where the wife can do it. :) | 20:57 |
| whoever | Dr_Willis: that sounds a little hi-tech for here | 20:57 |
| ggabriel96 | Dr_Willis: will virtual box be available for the new user? | 20:57 |
| ggabriel96 | or I'll have to download it again? | 20:57 |
| whoever | Dr_Willis: aren't there hooks for chesse tha8t you can use | 20:58 |
| Stdedos | jrib: So, let's say I am kinda familiriazing with xmlstarlet. XPath all that (so far) seems to me does is making simple matches | 20:58 |
| Dr_Willis | basically i need a time field/widgit where she can enter like 1.3 hrs.. and hit play on the vcr. then click 'go/record' on the app. and she can walk away.. other day we frogot we were recording and got a 15hr video capture file of static. :) that filled up the hd. | 20:58 |
| Stdedos | jrib: How can I make more complex search requests? | 20:59 |
| Dr_Willis | ggabriel96: make a new user in virtualbox (you got ubuntu in vbox? make a new user in ubuntu in vbox) Unless i missread your issue. | 20:59 |
| guntbert | ggabriel96: it will be available | 20:59 |
| Dr_Willis | ggabriel96: or you maean VBOX itself is crashing your desktop? | 20:59 |
| ggabriel96 | Dr_Willis: oh, no. I didn't even create a virtual machine yet! | 20:59 |
| ggabriel96 | yes, it's crashing my system | 20:59 |

| Dr_Willis | ggabriel96: because sudo su is wrong. ;P | 21:02 |
| ggabriel96 | oh | 21:03 |

| Dr_Willis | ggabriel96: id try making a new user as a test. just to eliminate the potential that it could be a user setting issue. | 21:08 |
| Leo145 | jrib: because i'm writing a server program and one of its tasks is to take some c++ file from user. compile it and run it. and it should have specific input and output file and it should be run as a limited user. | 21:08 |
| ggabriel96 | you mean a user on my system, not in virtual machine, right | 21:09 |
| ggabriel96 | ? | 21:09 |
| jrib | Leo145: why do you need sudo? | 21:09 |
| Dr_Willis | ggabriel96: since you have no OS runningin the vm. :) the only place you can add a new user is on the ubuntu os correct? | 21:09 |
| ggabriel96 | yes | 21:10 |
| kubunto | o wow | 21:10 |

| codephobic | now when I reboot into ubuntu, it does not go to unity, or rather it doesn't look like unity. there is no launcher nor is there the menubar at the top of the screen | 21:56 |
| codephobic | I can't seem to get unity to work again | 21:57 |
| codephobic | (and I still have no sound) | 21:57 |
| wilee-nilee | codephobic, When you ran that purge did you look at all that was removed? | 21:57 |
| codephobic | wilee-nilee, "sudo apt-get remove --purge alsa-base pulseaudio" this is all that I ran | 21:58 |
| codephobic | removing alsa-base and pulseaudio | 21:58 |
| Cren | wilee-nilee: swedish | 21:58 |
| wilee-nilee | codephobic, And in the terminal it says what its going to do and you have ti yes or no it did you look? | 21:58 |

| ggabriel96 | Dr_Willis: after restoring it, can I delete xorg.conf? | 21:59 |
| codephobic | wilee-nilee, It worked correctly but then I think when I reinstalled (and the sound didn't work), I tried to remove & purge again and then reinstall, at which point it "hanged" and I did a hard reboot. | 21:59 |

| wilee-nilee | Cren, No, you are hardly understandable, in general I want exact details, bad communication compounds this. | 22:03 |
| codephobic | wilee-nilee, is there anyway to recover ubuntu at an earlier point in time (like Window's "system restore"), say from sometime today? | 22:03 |
| ggabriel96 | ok | 22:03 |
| ggabriel96 | sudo rm xorg.conf? | 22:03 |
| holstein | ggabriel96: why remove? | 22:03 |
| wilee-nilee | Cren, #ubuntu-se might be easier | 22:03 |
| ggabriel96 | holstein: I just restored nouveau | 22:04 |
| codephobic | I don't know why the sound card stopped working in Ubuntu, out of the blue, and I think it's something to do with some buggy update done to the kernel, atleast that's what I deciphered from my earlier googling. | 22:04 |
| holstein | ggabriel96: you can always just rename.. or move it out of the way.. not need to removing things like that since you might be troubleshooting | 22:04 |
| Taceo | we are using ubuntu 10.10, it seems | 22:04 |
| ggabriel96 | holstein: I copied it into documents, now imma remove it | 22:04 |
| Cren | wilee-nilee: i already told you want i have done, and whats the problem, i want get the menu entries back, and not the panel. | 22:05 |
| wilee-nilee | codephobic, Not really, try this reset for unity though if it is 12.10 or 13.04 sometimes a couple of reboots can fix a hard shutdown. http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2013/04/how-to-reset-unity-compiz-in-ubuntu-12-10-and-13-04 | 22:05 |

| ggabriel96 | holstein: that part I know. I don't know the rest. is is sudo mv xorg.conf xorgbackup.conf for exemple? | 22:06 |

| ggabriel96 | ok. nouveau restored normally (i did it with additional drivers). what doing a sudo apt-get purge nvidia-current would do now? | 22:10 |
| wilee-nilee | thunder-storm, I believe there is a unity-tweak app that may have that option, but surely others | 22:11 |
| johnj2 | assuming I have a broken pulseaudio, is there an easy way to figure out what's wrong and how to fix it? | 22:12 |
| holstein | !audio | johnj2 | 22:12 |
| ubottu | johnj2: If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !players and !mp3. | 22:12 |

| johnj2 | I don't have trouble getting sound to happen. I just don't have a working volume control. | 22:14 |
| ggabriel96 | aha! virtualbox doesn't crash x with nouveau! | 22:14 |
| ggabriel96 | its some error with nvidia settings | 22:14 |
| holstein | johnj2: then, you have no issues with pulse | 22:15 |
| ggabriel96 | is there any configuration tool for nouveau? | 22:15 |
| holstein | johnj2: open a terminal and type "alsamixer" | 22:15 |
| wilee-nilee | thunder-storm, Not sure that app is available for 12.04 though. | 22:15 |

| thunder-storm | ok, i will try, thank you wilee-nilee | 22:17 |
| holstein | ggabriel96: what configuration? | 22:17 |
| ggabriel96 | holstein: or, is there any way to fix that with nvidia driver? I can't play tf2 with nouveau XD (i won't have time to do so anyways, but...) | 22:17 |
| ggabriel96 | holstein: I mean, any config tool , just like nvidia has the nvidia settings | 22:17 |
| wilee-nilee | LXLE, Details go a long way for help here. ;) | 22:17 |
| holstein | ggabriel96: you should need one, what configuration are you trying to do? | 22:17 |

| Ubuntivity | Hello people. I have a problem with the 'beep' on my Ubuntu Server 12.04 | 22:35 |
| Ubuntivity | On my Desktop PC running Ubuntu server 12.04, I removed the blacklisting from /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf then did a 'sudo modprobe pcspkr' then it worked fine | 22:35 |
| theadmin | motaka2: Sure, you can use any of the official Ubuntu desktops. To do so, simply install xubuntu-desktop, lubuntu-desktop or kubuntu-desktop from the Software Centre. | 22:36 |
| Ubuntivity | But I did the same steps on a Laptop with Ubuntu server 12.04 but it did not work! | 22:36 |
| motaka2 | theadmin, which one do you suggest for a LAMP programmer? | 22:36 |
| theadmin | motaka2: Uh. None. Servers aren't supposed to have desktops. | 22:37 |
| Pricey | motaka2: Sorry, that link wasn't for you! | 22:37 |
| Pricey | SuperLag: http://standards.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html might be interesting. | 22:37 |
| theadmin | motaka2: If you mean for development, then eh, shouldn't matter, what matters is the text editor you use and that's about it... | 22:37 |
| motaka2 | theadmin, It's not a server, I use it for my day work but I mostely use programming staff since I am programmer | 22:37 |
| motaka2 | theadmin, I use netbeans, if i install one of those spplication, i dont need to reinstall my apps again right ? | 22:38 |
| theadmin | motaka2: Not at all, you can even use all of the multitude of desktops -- you choose which desktop environment to use when you log in | 22:39 |
| motaka2 | theadmin, so those desktops consume less cpu/meory etc ? | 22:40 |
| theadmin | motaka2: That depends. KDE (which Kubuntu uses), for example, is generally heavier, but much more functional and customizable than plain Ubuntu (in my opinion anyway). Xfce (Xubuntu) and LXDE (Lubuntu) are a lot lighter. Xfce is more functional than LXDE in general, though. | 22:41 |
| motaka2 | theadmin, so over all Kubuntu is lighter than current desctop I am using ? | 22:42 |
| theadmin | motaka2: No, Kubuntu would be a bit heavier, I think. | 22:42 |

| jrib | Ubuntivity: what you are probably wanting is to use the pc speaker which is unrelated afaik. You need to load the appropriate kernel module (sounds like you are, maybe? (be more verbose)). And you also need to probably sort out some configuration issue in your shell since I'm pretty sure ubuntu disables bell actually playing noise by default | 23:03 |

| loki_ | I need help | 23:16 |
| SuRfDaEmOn | !ask | loki_ | 23:16 |
| wilee-nilee | loki_, State your issue for help. | 23:16 |
| ubottu | loki_: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience | 23:16 |
| fishscene | compdoc: That's the exact conclusion I was coming to. But I sincerely suspect the card was being pushed, but it wasn't allowed to cool fast enough, which would cause the extreme lag I was seeing. | 23:16 |
| Ubuntivity | Welcome loki_ | 23:16 |
| fishscene | Anyway, thanks everyone for your input, I'll look into swapping in an NVIDIA card I have lying around :) | 23:16 |
| loki_ | i have an acer 5740 running ubuntu 12.04 and it will not detect my blutooth card | 23:16 |
| compdoc | fishscene, I never realized the driver was responsible for cooling. | 23:16 |
| subcool | willybilly0101, nope | 23:17 |
| subcool | im working on rebooting. i just thought there was a was to probe the usbs to see whats there.. | 23:17 |
| loki_ | the bluetooth card is built into machine | 23:17 |
| kostkon | loki_, what's the output of: hcitool dev | 23:18 |
| loki_ | it is blank | 23:18 |
| fishscene | compdoc: I'm not an expert, I think I stated it incorrectly - sorry about that. It felt like the card wasn't allowed to clock itself up to handle the load, so it didn't need to cool itself. | 23:18 |
| wilee-nilee | subcool, In general without a desktop the usual access is probably not there, what I see in that blink are gui | 23:19 |
| loki_ | it is not detected | 23:19 |
| wilee-nilee | link* | 23:19 |
| kostkon | loki_, did it work in windows? | 23:19 |
| Left_Turn | !Mount | 23:19 |
| ubottu | mount is used to attach devices to directories. See also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount | 23:19 |
| loki_ | yeah | 23:19 |
| subcool | ok.. lets try something else that needs to work. | 23:21 |
| subcool | my HDMI isnt pushing audio.. | 23:21 |
| subcool | i think Dr. something told me its a kernel issue, but- i cant seem to find what he had forwarded me a long time ago | 23:21 |
| motaka2 | hello should I instal xfce4 or xubuntu desktop ? whats the diffrence? | 23:22 |
| holstein | subcool: it might not work.. i would look at the graphics driver.. | 23:22 |
| holstein | motaka2: xubuntu uses xfce.. what is your goal? to have XFCE and unity? | 23:22 |
| wilee-nilee | motaka2, xfce4 is a little lighter is all. | 23:22 |
| loki_ | any suggestions?? | 23:22 |
| holstein | motaka2: i would just install xfce4... you can always convert xubuntu if you want | 23:22 |
| Dr_Willis | xubuntu-desktop is xfce+extras | 23:22 |
| loki_ | i dont like windows and dont want to go back | 23:23 |
| holstein | loki_: it might not be supported by the manufacturer in linux | 23:23 |
| loki_ | was afraid of that | 23:23 |
| hester | I've installed some software from source but I'm unable to get a working icon to appear on the unity dash. | 23:23 |
| Dr_Willis | hester: you made a proper whatever.desktop file for the binaries? | 23:23 |
| johnj2 | If I can use alsamixer but not pavucontrol, what is wrong? | 23:24 |
| loki_ | you how to get dvds to play?? | 23:24 |
| holstein | johnj2: nothing.. maybe you are not using pulse | 23:24 |
| Dr_Willis | !dvd | loki_ | 23:24 |
| ubottu | loki_: Ubuntu's default installation and repositories do not include packages needed to play commercial DVDs for legal reasons. For information on adding them, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/PlayingDVDs | For information on the legalities involved, see the "DVD" section of https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats | 23:24 |
| Dr_Willis | loki_: theres a extra package to install. and a script to run to get dvds playing I recall | 23:24 |
| hester | Dr_Willis: There was one included, I checked it against the sample found online at help.ubuntu.com | 23:25 |
| johnj2 | Is there some way that I can start using Pulse? | 23:25 |
| loki_ | sweet thanks everybody | 23:25 |
| Dr_Willis | hester: could be its got installed to the wromng place, or not installed at all. or the dash menus havent refreshed to show the file yet. | 23:25 |
| Dr_Willis | hester: you could copy it to ~/.config/menus/applications-merged/ | 23:26 |
| hester | Dr_Willis: i'm able to run the tool from terminal just fine, so long as specify the full path. I included the full path in the *.desktop file too. | 23:26 |
| hester | copy what? the .desktop file or the executable? | 23:26 |
| loki_ | any thoughts on reaver?? | 23:26 |
| Dr_Willis | hester: .desktop files go in that dir. its a user custome menu directory | 23:27 |
| holstein | loki_: reaver? | 23:27 |
| loki_ | wps cracking tool | 23:27 |
| [deXter] | Hey all, any recommendations for an Ubuntu friendly Haswell Ultrabook? | 23:27 |
| hester | aah, I had it in /usr/share/applications/ or something like that. | 23:27 |
| holstein | loki_: i would ask in an appropriate channel.. maybe networking or security | 23:27 |
| Dr_Willis | hester: if theres other desktop files in that dir. then the dash should see it. it might take it some time to find it. | 23:28 |
| loki_ | ah | 23:28 |
| hester | even after a full restart? | 23:28 |
| hester | Dr_Willis: | 23:28 |
| Dr_Willis | hester: never really noticed. I rarely do stuff dorm source any more. once you run git.. it should have an icon you can pin to the launcher | 23:29 |
| wilee-nilee | [deXter], You are not new here and know the channel norms, polls are not part of them. ;) | 23:29 |
| [deXter] | wilee-nilee, Yes, but this isn't a poll, it's a serious question. | 23:31 |
| ikonia | [deXter]: this is a serious statement - no poll, | 23:31 |
| [deXter] | It's *not* a poll. | 23:32 |
| holstein | [deXter]: i would look for users with that hardware, and ask them.. or just try it live on the hardware first hand | 23:35 |
| ikonia | [deXter]: you'll need to resarch the hardware of the kit you want | 23:35 |
| hester | Dr_Willis: no such file or directory... I failed to mention I'm using 13.04 | 23:36 |
| [deXter] | Thanks guys, I guess I'll just pop into one of the stores and try out a live usb.. | 23:36 |
| tgm4883 | I'm not a mod here, and maybe I should just keep my opinion to myself, but I'd have to agree with [deXter] that while this may feel like a poll, it should probably still be allowed. The spirit behind the no poll rule was because people would ask something like "what is the best cd burning software", in which there would be many replies because there are hundreds of different cd burning programs, each with different feature sets. However, he is ask | 23:37 |
| tgm4883 | ing for a recommendation on hardware that works with Ubuntu. Something that there is a limited number of | 23:37 |
| Dr_Willis | hester: what file/dirctory are you talking about? | 23:37 |
| apt-get_install | Hi, can I help multipe folders in one bookmark, like Windows and Explorer's libaries? | 23:37 |
| apt-get_install | Maybe in an other file manager? | 23:37 |
| hester | Dr_Willis: sorry, /home/<me>/.config/menus/applications-merged/ | 23:37 |
| Dr_Willis | apt-get_install: you could make a direcvtory that contains soft links to other directorues | 23:37 |
| Dr_Willis | hester: make the directory then? | 23:37 |
| apt-get_install | Dr_Willis: i dont wanna have alot of subfolders | 23:38 |
| holstein | apt-get_install: you can have as many bookmarks as you like.. | 23:38 |
| apt-get_install | you see, i have three disks | 23:38 |
| Dr_Willis | hester: that might not be the right place. let me look at my dirs | 23:38 |
| apt-get_install | i dont wanna search though every bookmark | 23:38 |
| apt-get_install | that's just stupid | 23:38 |
| apt-get_install | i want i bookmark, or libary, that contains EVERYTHING in several folders | 23:39 |
| holstein | apt-get_install: you can mave as many bookmarks as you want, to custom locations | 23:39 |
| apt-get_install | holstein:but to only one localtion, right? | 23:39 |
| holstein | apt-get_install: the file manager can be seen as that library | 23:39 |
| Dr_Willis | hester: seems i got .menu files in there not .desktop files, theres some directory that adds custome desktop files. i just cant find it | 23:39 |
| holstein | apt-get_install: its a bookmark to a location.. im not sure what you are asking | 23:39 |
| Dr_Willis | hester: askubuntu.com may have some info on where to put custom launchers | 23:40 |
| hester | Dr_Willis: ah okay, from what I've found it's the /usr/share/applications/ dir ... yeah let me poke around there some more. Thanks for your time. | 23:40 |
| apt-get_install | holstein: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/working-with-libraries | 23:40 |
| brontosaurusrex | apt-get_install, filemanager ./location1 ./location2 ./locationN < you could script it | 23:40 |
| Dr_Willis | hester: theres a user owned similer directory | 23:40 |
| Dr_Willis | hester: or just put the .desktop file in your home and see if you can double click it fom there | 23:40 |
| apt-get_install | brontosaurusrex: holstein: http://cdn.howtogeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/25library.png | 23:41 |
| kostkon | Dr_Willis, it's ~/.local/share/applications | 23:41 |
| hester | Dr_Willis: I actually went to the orig file and tried the ol' double-click "there was an error" | 23:41 |
| apt-get_install | http://cdn.howtogeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/26library.png | 23:41 |
| apt-get_install | like that | 23:41 |
| holstein | apt-get_install: there is a pictures folder | 23:41 |
| holstein | apt-get_install: you can use symlinks.. or another filemanager.. i can think of a few ways to emulate that | 23:42 |
| apt-get_install | holstein: but i cant add different locations to the picture bookmark | 23:42 |
| apt-get_install | holstein: yes, that's what i wondered | 23:42 |
| apt-get_install | and no, symlinks are not suitible | 23:42 |
| Dr_Willis | you could put a link to your other picture directory, in your Pictures folder i guess. ;) | 23:42 |
| holstein | apt-get_install: you can add symlinks inside that pictutes folder.. thus, being able to get to them, as stated, from that pictures bookmark | 23:43 |
| Dr_Willis | no idea how it would be differnt really. | 23:43 |
| holstein | apt-get_install: sim links *are* suitable.. though, you might now want to use them | 23:43 |
| brontosaurusrex | apt-get_install, i'am pretty sure kde/dolphin can do it (and i'am pretty sure its animated as well) | 23:43 |
| apt-get_install | i dont want to have like four symlinks and sunfolders | 23:43 |
| Dr_Willis | fuse has some sort of 'overlay fs' thing where you can murge differnt directories into one huge directory.. it can get to be a huge mess easy however | 23:43 |
| Dr_Willis | id rather have the links. | 23:43 |
| apt-get_install | *subfolders | 23:43 |
| holstein | apt-get_install: i dont want libraies ;).. try dophin... | 23:43 |
| holstein | libraries* | 23:43 |
| Milos_Lamont | Hello everyone, Milos_Lamonthere and i'm here and ready to DDoS. | 23:44 |
| brontosaurusrex | lmao | 23:45 |
| Dr_Willis | he DDosed his selff off the network. ;) | 23:45 |
| brontosaurusrex | apt-get_install, actually now i'am curious, how does it look when you clicky such a library bookmark? | 23:49 |
